repeated five times, and not once did the

"I have never heard Of aviators or
members Of the Zeppelin crew hitting the

against the retention of non-combatants

Laurence Sterne who has not a con-

who is partly honest. wholly dishonest?
I recall A story l once read Of man
who took a seat in a railway car and
piled the seat at his side with bags and
parcels. The car became crowded, and
a gentleman asked II the other half OF
the seat was occupied Yes, those
things belong to a man who has just
gone-into the smoking car. and he'll be
back presently" The gentleman. having
reason to suspect the truth Of this state
ment. said, "All right, I will sit here

to remove the bundles and bags. ne

the gentleman, but you said these bun

car. I shall consider 1t my duty to pre-
vent YOU from taking them. since by
YOUR own statement they don't belong to
you
The man became violent and abusive,
but dared not lay his hands on the bun
dies. The conductor was called in He

the bundles myself. and take them to the
station in the city; and II no one else

laughter and applause Of the passengers,
the man got on at the station, just as the
train was pulling out without his bag

well punished for the lie he had told for
the sake of monopolizing a seat that
did not belong to him.
Mark Twain. in one Of his stories, says

TO INCREASE FARES.
Railroads Accept Hint in Recent L
c. c. Rate Decision.

c. c. Rate Decision.
Passenger rates on railroads will be
Increased within the next thirty or sixty
days. Following the suggestion made in
the recent decision OF the Interstate Com
merce Commission on the advanced rate
case in which the commission set forth
that passenger rates were not compen-
pensatory. the carriers have compiled
new tariffs showing increases.
The new rates will apply in all Eastern
territory, and 1t is understood that they
will be at the rate generally of 3 cents
a mile intsead OF the 2-cent-a-mile rate,
the standard now generally prevailing.
The tariffs have not yet been officially
filed with the commission.
An announcement by the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company serves notice that the
company yesterday filed with the Inter
state Commerce Commission the neces-
sary notices providing that, beginning
October /, the charge for open and in
terchangeable mileage books shall be at
the rate of ~ cents per mile instead Of
2 cents, as heretofore. This increase is
made to carry out the suggestion Of the
Interstate Commerce Commission that
additional revenue demanded as the
commission says, '1n the interest Of both
the general public and the railroads
should be obtained by carriers In trunk
line territory by other than increases in
freight rates
