MAY ELECTRIFI MORE
pennsylvania Lines
P, B. & W. Division as Far

cluded in Plan
BROAD ST. STATION
WORK is DELAYED
BY JACKIE SAUNDERS

Pennsylvania Railroad officials have
considered in a tentative way the
electrifcation of the Media branch Of
the Baltimore Central as far as Media,
when the electritlcation of the Chest
nut Hill branch is completed. With
the electrification of the Main Line
to Paoli at an approximate cost of
S3,500.000 and the Chestnut Hill
branch at a cost of about S750,000,
nothing further is heard of the elabO-
rate plans for the extension of Broad
Street Station at a cost of millions.
Serious consideration was given this
matter several years ago and a com
mittee Of expert engineers was ap-
pointed to prepare plans and report.
At this time electrifcation of the
company's suburban lines out of
Broad Street Station had not been
considered. The completion and plac-
ing in operation of the electrified
Main Line to Paoli. however, greatly
relieved the congestion at Broad
Street Station. which was the princi-
pal object in the proposed extension
of the station. ElectrificatiOn of the
, Chestnut Hill and Media branches
and the possibility that in the end
the Philadelphia, Washington and
Baltimore Railroad also will be cleo
trified as far as Chester. and possibly
Wilmington. will still further reduce
the congestion and make unnecessary
any extension of the station.
An official of the company in dis
cussing the probabilities Of an exten-
sion of the station, expressed the
opinion that the money would be bet
ter spent in the electrification Of the
suburban lines. which also will bring
about another important improve
ment, that of the abatement to a
large extent of the smoke nuisance
which for a long time has been a
menace to health and comfort in West
Philadelphia and that portion of the
city leading into Broad Street Sta

EASTERN SHORE
WILL HAVE SERVICE

BALTIMORE. Nd Feb. 2S.-While
no definite action has been taken in
any local quarter for the actual con-
tinuance OF the steamboat lines to
the Eastern shore after April I, when
the Pennsylvania Railroad will cease
its operation, there Is a widespread
belief now that there will be no stop
page of this service, and so great has
this confidence become that there Is
an easier feeling all around over the
outlook
The Merchants and Manufacturers
Association will consider the matter
early this week through the special
committee named by President Fal-
coner, as stated ON saturday While
neither this committee nor the asso-
citation will promise an immediate ad-
iustment Of the matter, It IS said they
I feel sure that the outcome VIII be
either the continuance OF the service
/ by the present owners OF the lines
or by some other capable manage
ment.
/ What has given the greatest conf
dence Is the statement that the East
ern Shore Development and Steamship
/ Company is prepared to make an Of
| fer for the lines to the pennsylvania
Railroad. and falling in these negoti-
ations. will take steps to cover with
an ample service the sections that
would have been cut off II the Penn
/ sylyanias boats actually cease run
ming.
That tho Pennsylvania Railroad Is
willing to sell the boat lines was the
statement OF w. II. Myers. OF phila-
delphia. president Of the two steam
boat companies and vice-president OF
the Pennsylvania system. in letter
written TO A. y. Beck. OF the tarfnC
department of the Merchants ant
& Manufacturers Association. This was
in reply to a query addressed TO Mr.
e. Myers by Mr. Beck. The latter wanted
to know whether the railroad is de
termined not TO sell the lines and
: further, whether il contemplated
, finally abandoning them instead o
dispOsing of them u other interests.
, Mr.. Beck declared that he did no
expect a suspension OF the boat lin
service for any great length or time
even though the Pennsylvania dil
abandon them, nor did he believe tina
the Interstate Commerce Commission
would rescind its decision, compellin
the Pennsylvania TO cease operatio

Horse Was BURIED

Much Excitement in FEEDER
alsburg Until County Off
cialS Make Investigation
FIND SKELETON
IN IVY SWAMP

FEDERALSBURG, Md, Feb. Is
When a murder is suspected, newly
made grave in an isolated spot is
discovered and tracks of a vehicle and
footprints of two human beings are
seen about that grave, naturally there
is tense excitement in any community
where such things occur. Just such
suspicious evidence of a crime was
discovered on Saturday in a lonely
spot in the ivy swamp, near here.
A reliable citizen reported that he
had by accident discovered newly
turned earth and upon further exam
ination a grave, and he felt sure there
was a human body in IL. Chief of De-
tectives Thomas Nichols got busy,
States Attorney Owens was consulted
and he advised an investigation at
once. Coroner Richards. Detective
Nichols and Deputies Fleetwood and
Earnshaw cautiously ventured to that
part of the swamp where the grave
was reported and found it as de-
scribed. Evidently the murder had
been committed elsewhere and the
victims body brought to this lonely
part for interment, the assassins
doubtless thinking that no human eye
ever would see the grave.
After all footprints had been care
fully measured and all other marks
about the grave noted to be used as
evidence against the criminals should
they be brought to justice. the officials
began 10 dig. Detective Nichols was
the first to touch the body with his
shovel and succeeded in exposing a
head With this information the
quartet decided to return to town to
report their discovery. Detective
Nichols in his report said that the
grave contained the body Of a horse.

the expression Of the lips in CLOSE

as plainly as though the syllables ac-

message of words to the watcher. the
lips must accentuate the prontncia-

The smile. the snarl. the pout-all

And how would you picture surprise
without the lips? In disdain. the curl

is shown by the upward pointing OF
