TROLLEY CARS
 BEAR SIGNS
CContinued from Page One )

Two more new jitneys of the most up-to-date design arrived in the city yesterday and the officers of the Park City Bus association who went to New York say that they have been given assurances that they can have a sufficient number of these cars to meet all requirements on a days notice.
 They are awaiting the action of the Board of Aldermen before ordering as they seem to think that the Con- necticut Go. will make some propo- sition to continue after the 18th pending a settlement of the dis pute.
 Alderman Edward J. McManus said today that he could not see that the city had any power to take any action in the matter of curbing the jitney men as requested by the trustees of the Connecticut Go.
 The authority of the trustees who have ordered the stoppage of the trolleys is questioned by a number Of the legal lights of the city.
 They say that the trustees are act ing under a decree of the United States court and that the powers of the trustees are limited to the word ing of the decree which empowered them. to sell the system and made no
 
 for them to stop.
 Attorneys who were seen said they l believed that the trustees could not legally stop the cars without an or der of the court which appointed them and then only after notice and due hearing to the parties in interest. A mail referendum will be sub | mitted to the entire mem bership af- l ter Monday nights meeting and the result of the vote will be made pub l lie on Wednesday morning. Three l practical suggestions in regard to the l situation were agreed on by the three 1 committees at their meeting yester- 1 day but will not be given out until 1 the meeting.
 Another interesting speaker who | will have a say in the meeting Mon | day night will be John Masso, who claims that he represents the largest percentage of jitney operators in the ! city and who do not belong to either the Park City Bus Association of the Connecticut State organizati ton. | The specific proposition to be sutb- rllftted at the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce on Monday night at the IStratfield agreed to at a meeting of the Merchants, Traffic and the Trans I porta-tion committees yesterday after noon were given out by Seward Price executive secretary of the chamber, this morning.

"My wife has fallen off until she

OF perfect health" was the remarkable
statement made recently by o. c.
Gwinn, by taking Tanlac.

to be true that my wife Is a well

After that she didn't seem to be able
to get back her strength and from
then on her health gradually became
worse. Her stomach was all upset
and it looked like everything She ate

misery. She suffered something aw-
ful from gas, and at times her breath

FIRST MAN CLIMBED TO
TOP OF Pixies PEAK

Colorado Springs. Col. July A.
One hundred years ago today DR..
Frank James astonished the world by
climbing to the top Of Pixies Peak,
14,l09 feet above the sea. Since that
time 1000 900 persons have made the
trip and today Colorado Springs Is
celebrating the anniversary with cere-
monies all along the 1S-mile serpentine
automobile highway to the summit.
Lieut. Zebulon NJ. Pike is credited
with the discovery of the mountain
in 1906. AS hardy pioneer as was the
discoverer he declared the peak was
inaccessible and none dared to doubt
1t until July IA, 1920, when Doctor
James a member OF the Major Long
expedition succeeded in the attempt.
Major Long christened the mountain
James Peak, but the pioneers and
plainsmen persisted in giving 1t the
name Of its dscoverer and Pixies
Peak it has remained.
The history of tourists travel to this
most famous spot of the Rockies has
been that of the development of high
way transportation. First came a
bride path, in 1878: two years later
wagon road was built and in 1891
a cog wheel railroad was constructed.
With the development Of the au-
tomobile industry came the demand
for motor road and in 1916 the
present motor highway winding around
the mountain in devious curves. with
precipitious rock walls flush against
the road on the one hand and deer
ravines on the other, was completed
