Plainville Young Mems club are ex- pected to turn out en masse to the Town hall tonight, when the Forest vile quintet will come here for the final game.
 Forestville has defeated Plainville with due regularity in all the games thus far played but the local boys claim to have few tricks up their sleeves which they believe will en- able them to turn the tables tonight.
 Forestville will send a large dele gation here to root for the village team and there is no danger of an absence of enthusiasm.

RAILWAYS PLAN
BETTER SERVICE
Ten New Cars Ordered; Faster
Schedules on Berryhill and
State Street Lines

Extensive plans for service i'm
provement on the lines of the Harris
burg Railways Company were an
nounced this morning by President
Frank B. Musser.
Changes in schedules giving better
service to Twentieth and State streets,
and to Nineteenth and Berryhill
streets, on the Allison Hill lines are
being arranged, and on Saturday a
contract for ten new cars was placed
with the ]. G. Brill Company, of
Philadelphia. The first of these will
be delivered during the latter part of
May and will probably be used for the
nrst time on Memorial Day.
Five of the new cars will be of the
all-steel construction type, similar to
the 500 series recently placed in serv-
ice. These will be used on the subur-
ban lines. The other five will be for
city lines and will be similar to the
so series, with seats running parallel
with the aisles of the cars.
Constructing Siding
Work has been started on the con-
struction of a siding in Berryhill
street, between Fifteenth and Six
teenth streets, which will be COM
pleted probably within a week or ten
days.
During the rush hours in the morn
lAA7 anu al liiS CNelllIBt seven ana one
half minute service will be maintained
to Nineteenth and Berryhill streets.
With the completion of big track ex-
tension in State street, G-minute serv-
ice is being maintained in the after
noon and evening to Twentieth street,
and will probably be maintained in
the morning as soon as an. adequate
schedule can be worked out.
President Musser intimated that
other changes may be eXnected in the
near future, and said that men are be-
ing stationed at congested street inter-
sections to study how traffic condi-
tions can be bettered so that cars can
be kept on schedule during the busy
hours of the day. Action on further
improvements will probably be taken
at the annual meeting of the board of
directors to be held in March. Work
las been started on remodeling and
repairing some of the special cars used
In the morning and evening to haul
the workmen to and from Steelton.
