Man Who Beat and RobbeS Soldiers Emulates a
 Shrinking Violet.
SAM BROWN BELTED
 KEEPER IS SHIELD
Captain Samuelson Tear fully Regrets This Dis
 tasteful Notoriety."

The metamorphosis of Hard Boil1 ed'' Smith into a shrinking violet is source of wonder to the post officials at Governors Island, into whose keep- ing the former A. E. F. lieutenant has been committed to serve eighteen months for 1n.streating prisoners at Farm No. ?. Paris.
 "AIl this notoriety has been very distasteful to smith, Captain L. I. Samuelson, adjutant of the discdplin- ary barracks. said yesterday, when z. reporter sought permission to talk to Smith and get his own story of his troubles. He does not wish to ba interviewed and the commandant has ordered that he be protected in this wish"
 The three-year sentence given Smitl. by a general court martial overseas was reduced to eighteen months at hard labor. Those who have tha disposition of such things at Cover nor's Island have decreei that Smith shall labor hard at clerical work in the disciplinary barracks. This does not bring him into much contact with the other prisoners, who are to be seen most any day on the island per forming manual and often menia. ldShS uuuSI tie "altH1ul eye Ol aIA armed guard. Smith is not over anxious for such contact. One of these other prisoners made a disparaging remark about Smith the other day, based on the accounts of the brutality that was practiced at Farm No ? in France.
 He was placed in solitary confine- nenr for speaking as he did, Cap tain samuelson let it be known. There is no danger of Smith being attacked by the other prisoners Captain Sa1nuelson was of the opinion that the hard boiled" one wasn't quite 50 bad a fellow as he had been painted.
 There has been a lot of exag- geration about it," he said. He was found guilty on only Il of the 31 specifications in the charges against him.
 Captain Samue1son said he had not read General March's testimony be- fore the House committee in Wash ington Wednesday and was unaware General March had submitted Gen eral Pershing's cabled report which disclosed that the II specifications upon which Smith was convicted in cluded beating and threatening pris- oners, falling to provide them with proper food, issuing illegal orders, using provoking language to prison CTS and causing private property to be taken from prisoners which he failed to return.
 Ut was not shown" Captain Sam uelson explained, that Smith him self took property from the prisoners and kept 1t for his own use. It may be that the failure to return 1t was nothing more serious than neglect of duty''
 Smith Is said to entertain more ap- prehensfon as to what may be befall him outside after he finishes his term than of being mishandled by other prisoners on the island.

FARE INCREASE NOT
 WAY FOR TR0LLEYS TO
 COMPETE WITH JITNEy
CHARGE FOR TRANSFERS CAUSES PUBLIC TO STOP RIDING ON STREET RAIL- WAYS--FARE RAISES NOT
 SUCCESSFUL.

The jitney and the auto bus are means of transportation with which street railway lines cannot compete by raising fares. Each fare increase made by a street railway company is followed by an increased patronage of the iitneys.
 Lucius s. Storrs, president of the Connecticut Company, in his testi- mony before the Federal Electric Railways Commission, in Washing ton, where he appeared as an expert on street railway transport
 In Newark, N. J., the street rail- ways made a charge of a penny for a transfer. The business of the Jit neys took an enormous leap.
 Fares were raised to seven cents with a penny for transfer. The busi- ness of the jitneys simply Jumped. In 1918 these jitneys were carrying passengers at the rate of more than 32,OOO,0OO a year, with gross receipts at the rate of s3,255,ooO per year.
 MT. Storrs told the committee that a survey of conditions in one New England city of 1S0000 showed 1t would take movement of 6k 2O-seater motor buses a minute en- tering the center to transport all the people in rush hours.
 MT. Storrs informed the committee
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-07-25

that no "serious attempt to regu- late' the Jitney has been made in Connecticut.
 The following figures show the di- vision Of business as a result Of jitney competition, as MT. Storrs furnished them to the committee. Those riding within IA miles of center on rail- ways. 5,432, GOO; on jitneys. 5,561, 600. Taking Jitney. 50l5s per cent. Riding more than miles. but less than 2 3-4 fro mcenter. Taking railays, 4,s05, 761. Taking jitney, 1o,62o, GOO. Taking jit- ney, es.S5 per cent.
 Distances ranging from more than 3-4 miles to less than 4 1-4 miles are entirely carried by the railways and 100000 passengers approximately are so carried.
 So that the street railways carried Ii, 1000 passengers and the jftneys 13000,00O, and the jitneys carried 56.24 per cent. more than the rail ways.
 MT. Storrs informed the committee that the jitney is not the only means by which street railways are deprived Of patronage. In the country 6,146, 900 motor vehicles privately owned carry millions of peraons who formerly rode on the street cars. Workmen go to and from their work in pleasure vehicles and to and from their homes in the rural districts

Alexander the Great was a glaring example of the hard drinking that had become so widespread in the days cf the decadence of ancient Greece, when Athens and all the other proud little states rere compelled to yield sub mission 70 the Macedonian. Tradition credits Alexander with being able to finish at enc sitting an enormous cup of wine that held no less than a gallon and half. After one of these feats it is said that he complained of not feel ing well, which seems rather naive remark.
 Alexander did not, despite the preva- lence of hard drinking in Greece, e.c- Quire his taste for alcohol in Europe. While there he was noted for temper ence both in eating and drinking. ir the intervals between his Asiatic con- quests. however, he yielded mora and rncro to the temptation of the wine Sssp.
