 The Lewis machine was swung around l by the crash, as also was the Greene car Herbert Hopkins. Percy Brown. Ar thur DePorest and Charles Rapp were rid ing with Mr Lewis at the time of the accident All are World War Veterans who had been spending day at re- ] union.,.o9 members of Coast Artillery organizat ton with which they had serv- ed overseas.

 If you are leaving on railroad jour neyt- today do not permit yourself to be surprised or to protest if. the charge to | wherever you may happen 10 be going is higher than. it was yestErday or at any other time in the recent past. for the new and higher passenger rates went into effect. at midnight Wednesday and the old passenger. tariffs are a thing of the nast. Just what the rates are to points herea bouts were not available at the local. ticket office Wednesday after noon but it was stated that the fare schedules had been figured out and will be available today,
 Incidentally q local business man
 whose, business. frequently takes him to Providence has discovered that up to to- day it has been cheaner 10 travel be- l tween Providence and Danielson via : nam and Blackstone.
 1 Cp to today the fare from Danielson to Providence via Putnam has been $1.66 whereas the charge via Piainfield and i Moosup was s145. It is probable that l something like this same proportion of cost will prevail over the respective
 routes under the new fare schedules. This business man also learned that the route via Moosup and Plainfeld is 4T,. t TO ticket that way was available in the i Providence station and that a ticket i agent there had to write one, making it i read "Via Plainfeld and Central @'Vil- i haze" which was in accord with his set Of instructions.- That such tickets are rarely issued was also attested by the 1 fact that the two conductors who saw i the ticket on trains makiEg the. run scru- !, tinized this particular one at length and
 with an expression indicating that they were puzzled But they accepted it just ! the same So if Danielson people will 1 use the Plainf1eld- -Moosup route to Prov idence they will find a way open to save i q few cents.
