MOTORETTES HAVE
ENJOYABLE TINE
At THE ALvARADO
They and Other Employees Of
the City Electric Are Guests
of the Boss at Banquet
Auto Ride Follows,

The banquet given by the City
Electric company last night TO Its en-
ployes was an unqualified success. Az
least that was the unanimous verdict
of those present. Covers were laid for
tWenty-six and at 1880 the company
was seated In Taft hall at the AL
yarado. Besides the employees, there
were present Walter Connell. chair
ma of the city commissioners; DR.. M.
X, Wylder, chairman of the board OF
county commissioners, and w. +.
Ross.
At the conclusion of the dinner
George Rosligton, president of the
company, welcomed the recently
formed Albuquerque Union of Street
Railway Employees which, he said,
was founded upon right principles. He
complimented the women operators,
saying that the only kick" he had
heard about them was that instead of
fussing, or worse, If they happened
to run the car a few feet past the
stopping place, it had gotten so that
men lifted their hats to the women
operators and at least pretended to
be glad if they stopped at all.
Mr.. Connell was the introduced and
related "reminiscences Of the days
when Albuquerque's street car line
was run by horse power. DR.. Wylder
being called upon next, responded In
happy vein, congratulating the
street railway. employees upon their
organization.
]. w. Murry, president Of the union
was called upon for a speech and re-
sponded by thanking the company, In
behalf of the union, for the evenings
entertainment. Mrs. Nellie Poland
Secretary of the union also thanked
the company for their hospitality. Mr.
Ross asked permission to say a few
words and told of the fame of Albu-
uuerdues street car service and the
courtesy of the employees as compared
to other cities.
Before they adjourned, F. w. Gra-
ham, presented resolution of friend
ship and sympathy for j. r. Hagy
who was unable to be present because
of illness which has kept him from
his work for the last three weeks. The
resolution was unanimously adopted
Afterwards the diners were taken for
an auto ride to Corrales, where a huge
bonfire was built, around which
stories were told until rather late
hour
