Exodus From Venice;
Paintings Sent to Florence

Italian Headquarters, Nov. l3.-
For several days the gravity of the
situation for Venice has not been
underestimated, and suitable precau-
tonary measures have been taken to
protect this great art center. The
city preserves comparative calm,
while picturesque gondolas, filed
with passengers and goods. take de-
parting throngs to the station. The
municipality is affording every as
sistance to those who are leaving and
is allowing two lire daily (normally
forty cents) to the needy until they
are located elsewhere.
The government is keenly alive to
the situation as regards the artistic
treasures of the city, and military
and naval operations doubtless would
be considered secondary to saving
priceless monuments like the Cam
panile, the Palace of the Doges and
st, Marks from bombardment. All
the chief paintings of Titan and
Paolo Veronese have been removed
to Florence, but scores of great fres-
Goes cannot be taken away.

COUNCIL SPLITS
FOR FIRST TIME

Three to Two Vote Comes on
Amendment to Trolley
Tracks Ordinance

For the first time since the present
CITY council organized two years ago
members could not agree on meas
ure before it for final passage, and a
to vote carried the legislation
which has been pending for several
weeks.
The question which caused a
lengthy debate to-day and resulted in
the split on the rollcall was whether
the ordinance providing Walnut
street track franchises for the Val
ley Railways Company should be
amended reimbursing property own
ers for payments on paving done in
1890 and relaid in 1896 by the city.
Commissioners Gorgas and Dunkle
favored the amendment, the former
introducing it and the latter second
ing the action. The amendment was
one to have the trolley company pay
to the city the amount to be estl-
mated by City Engineer Cowden, so
that property owners along the
street could have refun~ed money
paid by them for the first paving.

Fifty Girls Would Compete
With Boy Messengers

That girl messengers are an un-
qualified success is the verdict pro-
nounced by Clark e. Diehl, local
manager of the Postal Telegraph
Company. There are three girls on
duty now, all of whom say they are
greatly pleased with their jobs. The
girls are Marian McAfee, Frances
Davis and Miss Crosby. The first
girl is from Fiarview, the last two
from the city.
One of the noticeable features of
the girl messenger service is that the
girls have stimulated the boys and
men, Mr.. Diehl said to-day. The
girls are at their places promptly,
and are prompt in their services, and
the men are following their example.
Mr.. Diehl has a long waiting list of
girl applicants already. and states
that he could secure fifty girls If he
wished.
