were taken in from the single tickets.
Besides this the pupils Of the primary
grades were given complimentary
tickets. as an inducement for the
parents to bring the children.
Even before the first number, one
OF the influential ladies OF the town
remarked that any school boy, who
did not have ambition enough to get
out and earn money for a season tick
ct, was not worth much. And nov
that the season tickets for school
children cost but $l35 any student
ought to be able to earn some money
for his ticket. The adult season
tickets are now selling for $l.65.
These tickets are still on sale at the
Red Cross Drug store. What we
want is more people, especially stu
dents, to take an interest in the
course.
The approximate total expense for
the course is about s245, and in the
four remaining numbers at least $62
must be cleared.

ward the door, he noticed Kelly, and
his eyes fell upon the huge diamond
which Kelly always wore in his white
shirt bosom. Bill had seen this dia-
mond before and had heard that it
had cost $3.50. He had never thought
much about it, but that morning it
attracted his attention in a peculiar
way. All at once it occurred to Bill
that he had paid Kelly enough money
in ten years to have bought and paid
for a dozen such diamonds.
At noon Bill drank only one glass
of beer; he was thinking hard and
did o stop to speak to anyone in
the place. AS he walked out of the
door, however, he noticed Kelly and
Kelly's wife getting into an automo-
bile. Mrs. Kelly was dressed in the
height of fashion and as Bill watched
them drive away, it occurred to him
that the $I,85o.22 he had spent in
Kelly's saloon in ten years would
have bought a wagon load of dresses
for his wife as we'll as a bountifu1
supply of good clothes, caps, hats, and
other wearing apparel for his children
and himself.
As bill walked home from the shops
that night, smoking his corn-cob pipe
someone dashed past him in a fine
roadster. Looking up lie noticed that
Kelly was driving the machine. AS
he watched Kelly and the automobile
disappear down the street, it oc-
Cured to him that he had handed
enough money over Kelly's bar to
have bought and paid for an auto
mobile just like the one Kelly had.
Bill walked on in a thoughtful
mood. AS he came in sight of his

a month rent, he could not help but
contrast it with Tom Kelly's splendid
mansion which he had once seen
when walking along the boulevard one
Sunday afternoon.
That evening as Bill sat at one of
the tables in Kelly's saloon, he SEEM
ed different than usual. Kelly no.
ticed his thoughtful attitude and also
noticed that he had bought only one
drink. Kelly could not understand
what had come over Bill.
But Bill was thinking and did not
notice Kelly's apprehensive glances.
He was thinking of that $I,85o.22 and
how much he could do with that
amount of money if he had saved it
or how he might have spent it during
the ten years, on his family and him
self instead of turning it all over to
Kelly.

TARIFF REVENUES
JUST AS EXPECTED
No Disappointment by Con-
gressnen After Six Months
Operation of Act.

WASHINGTON. April S.-The Tn
derwood- Simmons tariff act went into
effect six months ago today. and pres
ent indications are that it will not
reduce customs revenue any more
than was estimated by Congress At
the time of passage.
According to the treasury's March
statement customs revenues amount
ed to about 10000, 900, which is about
$1,j00,000 less than the Payne-Aldrich
law produced in March, 1913. That
was a marked increase over February
when revenues fell over 100000
compared to the same month of 1873.
The average decrease in customs
revenue for the six months the I'm
derwood- Simmons act has been in OPP
Grafton is placed at about S400O,OOO,
but officials were confident today that
would be reduced in the coming six
months. The annual reduction was
estimated at about S45,000,000 a year.
Despite reports of the unexpected
failure of income tax returns TO prom
Use the revenue necessary to offset
the difference in customs, officials
were inclined today to believe that
the government would find its origi-
nal expectations realized.

.FREEHOLDERS MAY
VETO ROAD PLANS
Morris Board Opposed to Rail-
road Pillar in Madison
Thoroughfare.
Especial to the Evening star.l

MADISON, April 3.--An element in
connection with the elimination of
grade crossings which has not yet
been considered at any open meeting
OF the council or railroad committee
is the attitude of the Morris County
Board of F'reeholders to the elimina-
ton of the Madison avenue crossing.
This road is owned entirely by the
county and should the council do
business with the railroad without
consulting the county officials, it is
probable that a parallel condition to
that at Morris street, Morristown,
will occur.
Madison's representative in that
body, Freebooter Frank c. earle,
stated that the Board of Freeholders
had not been consulted in reference
to the changes necessary at Madison
aeVnue He declared that he had
notified Mayor Downs, during the
latters term last year. but that no
move was made on tn part of Madi-,
sons governing body to take counsel
with him. He said that members of
the county board, with whom he had
consulted, have said that under no
circumstance or condition will they
agree to a pillar in the centre of
Madison avenue, where 1t crosses the
tracks. They state also that they
will have to be consulted before the
town can make any agreement with
the railroad company to have that
street cut so as to hav it pass be-
meath the tracks. He declared in adj
dition that as he had already no.
titled the council that he did not in
tend to make any move toward eff
fecting a settlement, but would wait
until they are ready to come to his.
1t is possible that there might be
surprise in store for our town fathers
when they ask for permission to cross
Madison avenue above grade.
Councilman Charles f. Snyder,
chairman of the railroad committee,
gives the following two reasons for
the pillar in the centre of this street.
In the first place he says that engi-
neers state that 1t is impossible to
have a span reinforced concrete widex
than twenty-fouf feet and secondly
that Madison has long been wanting
to divide traffic and they firel this one
of the best means of doing so.
