METAL TICKETS
FAIL TO RETURN;
SUPPLY RUNS OUT

twenty-five thousand metal street
car tickets which were put into use
here a few months ago by the Grand
Forks Street Railway company are
circulating about the globe, and have
failed to. "come home" as rapidly as
they were expected to. This accounts
for the return of the little blue paper
tickets. which patrons of the street
cars have been receiving lately, ac-
cording to ". L. Hawkes., superin-
tendent of the company.
The new metal tickets were placed
in use in connection with the new
street cars which were to have been
here. in October, but which have been
delayed a few weeks by a fire which
occurred. in the factory where they
were being built. When $4,000 of the
tickets were put into circulation. that
was believed a sufficient number to

Mr.. Hawkes. said today, but the little
metal chips have failed to return. as
they were looked for, and an SO. s.
for 10000 of them has been
sent out. They have not yet been re-
ceived, and in the meantime a supply
of the blue paper tickets which were
on hand, has been drawn upon.
~ The fact that transients and per.
Sons living here, who use the street
cars but seldom. have bought the
metal tickets in various quantities,
and that they are not turned. In very
rapidly. accounts for the present
shortage, Mr.. Hawkes. explains.
