There is only one art that fits in

The play and the dance answer the call
OF pleasure. Music alone seems to nj

listening to such a musical master

PEhNSY Grants HALF
FARE TO CLERCYMEN
Preachers All Over the East
Benefited by New
Ruling
EFFECTIVE ON
ALL THE LINES

All fully ordained clergymen living
on the Pennsylvania Railroad lines
east of Pittsburgh now may get half
fare tickets to any point on the entire
system.
This means that half regular passen-
ger rates are now open TO clergymon
virtually to all points in the United
States, as the railroads west from Chi
cago and st. Louis sell clerical tickets.
Within Pennsylvania the State law
bars the sale Of half-fare tickets for
the use OF clergymen
This action of the Pennsylvania
Railroad is taken to remove discrim-
ination which long existed against
Philadelphia and which in effect was
causing clergymon going west to
travel first to New York in order TO
get the advantage Of greatly lower
rates to be had over certain lines.
The matter has been cleared up in a
very practical way by instructions
which nave gone to passenger agents
OF the Pennsylvania Railroad to Issue
TO fully ordained clergymen half fares
under the regular conditions govern
ing the issuance OF such tickets. which
will cover transportation from points
on lines east of Pittsburgh to points
on the Pennsylvania lines west OF
Pittsburgh. including the vandalia
Railroad and the Grand Rapids and
Indiana Railway.
Back in 1872 the Pennsylvania Rail-
road adopted the plan Of issuing Or
ders to clergymen in charge OF
churches on its lines east Of Pitts
burgh. emitting them to buy tickets
at half rates. This privilege was con-
fined to territory east of Pittsburgh,
and a couple of years ago was cut oil
within Pennsylvania in compliance
with a new State law. This left the
clerical orders good only as to inter-
state transportation east Of Pittsburgh.

argument. decided this morning t.

Mr.. Chaytor. Mr.. Garrett contende1
during the progress Of the trial that
