DEFER DECISION
ON ELEVA TION
Officials of Railway and City
Will Hold Another Meet
ing Before Final Action.

The final decision as to the man
ner Of the elevation of the New
York Central tracks has been de-
ferred for two weeks in order that
the engineers of the city and of the
various roads that are affected may
cons der in greater detail the vari-
oGs plans offered at the meeting to-
day.
Mayor Fred w. Keller declared
yesterday afternoon that there was
10 doubt that the tracks would be
elevated but that the exact method
and the time that the work is to
commence is still under discussion.
There are quite a number of prac-
teal difficulties that must be solved
before any decision will be reached,
he said.
Hope for Settlement.
After a short recess at noon the
conference which was started at 10
o'clock was resumed and it contin-
ued until the adjournment at 4:15
o'clock There is every hope that
reached though at present the task
seems stupendous. Plans and coun-
ter-plans were brought forward
during the meeting by both the city
and railroad officials The princi-
PAL plan, of course, pertained to the
elevation of the Lake Shore tracks
but the minor details offered by the
Grand Trunk crossing and the Van
dalia connection and a hundred 9TH
er circumstances present distinct
problems.
Find Task Big One.
II was found after the meeting
had progressed several hours that
the question was too great and pre-
scented too many angles to permit a
complete mastery by any of the
parties concerned in the short time
offered. 1t was, therefore, cOnsid-
cred advisab bic to postpone the final
decision until such a time as would
allow a thorough study

JOINT MEETING ON
GAS RATE HALTED
Mayor GayIOr of MiShaWaka
Seeks More Time to Con-
slider Reduction.

Because Mayor Gaylor of Misha-
waka wished TO have more time 10
consider the proposed reduction of
the gas rate that is occupying the
attention OF South Bend and Misha-
waka the joint meeting of the off,
Gals of the two cities with the Off
Gals of the Northern Indiana Gas
& Electric Co. was not called this
afternoon.
1t is assured that South Bend will,
after July 1. 1917. enjoy a rate Of
90 cents, and. though the population
Of Mishawaka is very much lower
that that of this city. the same rate
has been offered. The acceptance
of this rate will settle the matter by
compromise instead of by the
lengthy and costly means of litiga-
ton. Mayor Gaylor and Mayor
Keller held a meeting i'm the city
hall yesterday afternoon at which
the matter was thoroughly gone
over In the near future there will
be a Joint meeting called at which
the decisions Of the cities will be
announced.

about his work whistling. and was rarely heard
TO grumble.
Ever since that night at the Treherns'
Peggy's face had haunted him continually.
OFTEN he reproached himself for having spoken
10 her with such brutal candOur; ne remem-
bered so distinctly the hurt, troubled look that
had replaced the laughter In her eyes. Also
he remembered that sudden mad longing 10
take her In his arms. revealing 10 him that
which he had tried TO hide from himself during
those three brief days-the knowledge that he
loved her.
Jim Shelton had always considered himself
strong man. but the desire TO see that dream
face Just once more before he left England
proved stronger than all his resolutions. And
so when his six days final leave came along.
Jim found himself walking once more up the
quiet country road that led from Hardwood
Station 70 the old gray house that had been the
home of the Treherns for the past few centuries.
On the right OF the road struggled the few
village shops; TO the left lay the many acres of
Sprays farm. The cackling OF geese and the
backing of dog reached his ears; then girls
voice clear and sweet, rang out:
when, back. Broncho Hold still, can't you?
You little wretch"
The blood went coursing madly through
Shelton's veins. He turned his head sharply,
and his eyes rested on little figure beside a
young chestnut horse. whose tossing head and
ouivering nostriIs betrayed it's restIessness and
uncertain temper little figure, clad in
short skirt leggings. and soft felt hat. Jim
went close 10 the fence and leaned over.
Hello Peggy" he said.
She swung around like fash.
JIM" she gasped and her whole face flushed
with pleasure.
What on earth are you doing?"
I'm a farmland JIM" she explained. with a
touch OF pride in her voice I've been doing
this for months now. You see, | wanted 10 do
something for my country. and. as I'm hopeless
at nursing. anything like that, ! get old
Mr. Spragg 10 take me on I'm learning 10 do
everything-from planting mangold-wurzels 10
cleaning out pigstys. And, now, what are you
doing here ,"

JPPET By Dorothy Bradford

After he had explained matters he vaulted
over the fence, and put caressing hand on
the chestnut's neck The animal, however,
seemed to resent the familiarity. and backed
vigorously.
It's Bucking Broncho Peggy explained
apologetically He's a terror, and I'm trying
TO break him in"
Hes the sort Of horse you'd have 10 manage
out in Canada" said Jim, with a smile I'D
like TO see you on his back, Peg
Peggy's mouth Strengthened into a determined
line and her eyes sparkled. Without a word,
and with the skilful grace Of an adept horse
woman, she swung herself into the saddle.
Bucking Broncho. thoroughly startled by the
unexpected weight on his back, stood nearly
upright on his hind legs for few seconds, and
then made of az a breakneck speed.
Peggy had lost the rein. but she chung on
desperately 70 the animals neck. Jim caught
one glimpse OF her set. white face as. with a
hoarse little CRY, he dashed after the runaway
Then 10 his horror the horse stumbled, and
Peggy fell in a motionless heap on the grass.
II seemed TO Jim's distorted mind that he
would never reach her. Ages seemed 10 pass
before he lifted her in his arms.
oh. my darling-my little darling!" he
muttered.
To his intense relief she opened her eyes
and little smile aickered across her white
face.
Jim" she said Dearest"
He carried her across 20 the farm and laid
her on the broad couch IN the sitting-room.
while the greatly distressed Mrs Spragg saw
that the trap was got ready 70 take her home.
She was not seriously hurt-Only little
bruised and shaken. She chung pathetically 20

OFFER $4,000
TO HOSPITAL
EpWorth Trustees to Consider
Studebaker Heir Aid
in Fall.

Members of the board of trustees
Of Epworth hospital, to whom the
three children Of the late Mrs. Glenn
Studebaker offered $4,000 on con
dition that a similar amount be
raised ir some other way. probably
will be unable 70 consider the prop
osition before late in August or
early in September. The offer was
made 70 the trustees Monday, but
owing to the fact that several mem
bers Of the board are out of the city
for the summer. it will be impossi-
bic 10 take up the matter officially
until all OF them are in the city.
Mrs. Charles a. Carlisle. Clement
Studebaker, jr., and Col George NJ.
Studebaker Will be the donors of the
100000 in case the trustees decide
TO accept the amount and put on a
campaign to secure another $4,000
in order to get the original gift.
Under the conditions under which
the offer was made by Mrs. Stude-
bakers children, it will be neces-
sons to contribute an equal amount.
The trustees have not considered
plans yet for raising the money. 1t
* possible that a public campaign to
raise funds might conflict with the
laws of the South Bend Federation
for Social Service. of which Ep-
worth hospital is a member. The
rules of this organization provide
for only one campaign a year when
all of the institutions secure contri-
buttons.
Should the $4,000 be secured. it
Will be used to build an addition TO
the hospital. Since its construction,
additions have been made TO the orig
inaI buildings. but ii is said that the
accommodations are not sufficient
TO handle all Of the patients.
The Studebaker family has taken
considerable interest in Epworth
hospital The institution was made
possible when Glenn Studebaker as
sumed $4,000 worth of bonds for
the hospital.

would be a good year in which TO

The demands We have received

HRIGHT lights. gay music and laughter.
X At the Treherns' country home house
- party was in full swing
jim Shelton sat alone in an obscure corner
u the veranda-away from it all. He never
remembered feeling so utterly out OF place b.
sore After ten years OF the Canadian prairie
one forgets how to talk small talk" how 10
dance without treading ones partners toes.
and even how 10 hirt in dimly lit. palm-scTeened
corners. He realized now cordially he detestcd
social gatherings" of this sort. and wondered
how it was possible that ten years ago he had
enjoyed them as much as the immaculate.
vapidlooking youths appeared to be doing to
night
Ii was a stroke of bad luck that Jim Shelton
should have visited his old friends the Treherns,
just when their house full of guests but
there were only a few weeks left of his three
months holiday in England. and he had faith
fully promised q visit before returning TO his
farm "out West"
Suddenly his thoughts and solitude were dis
turbed by a soft rustic OF silk skirts. and.
quickly glancing up, he found Peggy Trehern
al his side He remembered her as a pretty,
fragile girl of eleven or twelve when he left the
mother-country; now his eyes rested on a tall.
slender girl-woman. exquisitely dainty. with
wid-rOse coloring and eyes that suddenly re-
minded him OF pansies.
He had had very little chance Of talking TO
her during the three days he had been staying
al the house. for she seemed always 10 be sur
