TO IMPROVE SERVICE
Railroad Committee of Council Dis
 cusses Plans for Improving Trolley Service-EspecialIy in North End.

The railroad committee of .the common council met last evening to take action on the improvement of the trolley service in this city. Chair man F. R. Gilpatric read letter from Superintendent F. l.. BeardSley, in which the latter admitted that the service at the north end of the city could be better. but at the present time it is difficult to secure labor to help out during the rush hour The zone system has given the company about 20 per cent. more revenue but the money has been used in making improvements. Councilman c. M LanderS believed that the north end should have better service, because within the past few years that end of the city had increased rapidly m numbers.
 All the mem bers present favored an open meeting where the matter could be threshed out satisfactorily both to the residents of the north end and the company. It is the opinion of Superintendent Beardsely that a week or two of normal weather would greatly improve the service.

 During the fire 8 gas meter was melted by the heat and for time an explosion was feared. During the progress of the fire Deputy Chief Will liam J. Noble sustained a badly wrcnched knee. He will not, how ever. be incapacitated from duty. The flames ate through the partition from the cellar to the first floor of the house. It was necessary for the fire men\to rip out part of the walls and floor to check the progress of the flames. The lower part of the house is badly damaged. and the furniture is ruined. The upper part escaped except from smoke damage. MT. Carr was until recently vice president of the North x Judd Manufacturing company and the house is owned by that concern

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
London, Feb. 17.-The allied reply
to the German note of Jan. 20 pro-
posing as an alternative to eXtradi-
tion that persons accused by the al
lies be tried at Leipsic states that
Germanys proposal for such Il trial
at Leipsic is compatible with Article
22S of the peace treaty. The allies,
the note says, will abstain from inter-
ventioE in the procedure of that
court. After stating that the allies
have carefully considered the German
note of Jan. % the reply says:
'The powers observe, in the first
place, that Germany declares herself
unable to carry out the obligations
imposed on her by articles 22S to 23O,
which she signed. They reserve to
themselves the power to employ in
such measure and form as they may
Judge suitable the rights accorded to
them in this event by the treaty.
"The allies note, however, the Ger
man governments declaration that
court of Leipsic penal proceedings
without delay, surrounded by the
most complete guarantee and not af-
fected by the application of all judg-
ments, procedure or previous decl-
sions of German civil or military tri-
bunalS before the Supreme Court at
LeipSic, against all German eXtradl-
ton tie allies and associated powers
have fhe intention to demand
r'Tne prosecution which the German
government itself proposes immedi-
ately to institute in this manner is
compatible with article 22S of the
peace treaty and is expressly pro-
vided for at the end of its first para
graph.
"Faithful to the letter and spirit of
the treaty, the allies will abstain from
intervention in any way in the pro-
cedure of the prosecution and verdict
in order to leave the German govern
ment complete and entire responsible
ity. They reserve to themselves the
right to decide by the results as to
the good faith of Germany, the recog-
milton by her of the crimes that were
committed and her sincere desire to
associate herself with their punish
ment
"They will see whether the German
government, who have declared them
selves unable to arrest the accused
named OH the above list to deliver
them for trial to the allies, are actu-
ally determined to judge them them
selves
Sat the same time the allies, in the
pursuance of truth and justice, have
decided to entruSt to mixed inter-
allied commission the task of collect
ing, Furnishing and communicating
to Germany details of the charges
brought against each of these whose
guilt shall have been established by

CEMETERY OF THE FUTURE
Government Scientist Draws Pleasing
Picture of Resting Places of
Loved Ones Gone Before.

Cemeteries are not cheerful places.
Burial lots are cared for during two
or three generations and then too
commonly are neglected. Weeds cover
the graves and fallen tombstones are
allowed to lie. The long-dead are for
gotten.
DR.. David Fairchild, distinguished
government scientist, urges new de-
parture. He thinks that cemeteries
should be made attractive and that
the principal feature of a great city
burying ground ought to be beautiful
building somewhat resembling a Ii
brary, with alcoves and quiet hooks.
Instead of book-stacks it would have
f1reproof vaults containing personal
records of members of the families
whose lost ones are buried under fiat
stones amid the charming surround
inCs of vast garden. These records
would include all kinds of data relat-
ing to the dead-accOuntS Of their
most noteworthy doings, photographs.
etc.
"Cannot you imagine" says DR..
Fairchild, "strolling into the hall Of
the dead to find there, in their proper
place, all of the personal records Of
your family for generations back?
There are the photographs of your
grandparents, of departed uncles and
aunts, or little ones who did not live
to grow up, all with stories of their
lives attached and letters and anec-
dOtes.
with these might be preserved
photographic records of the voices OF
the dead, so that they could be heard
to talk; and rooms might be fitted up
for privately viewing moving pictures
of the departed, who would thusly be
made to come alive again."
The dead could thus be made, in
sense, to live on indefinitely. Between
the living generation and the past
would be established a definite and
permanent tie.
