GEN. DAVIS ANSWERS CoNSTITU
TON CRITICS.

Gen. Abel Davis, president of the
Chicago Title & Trust Company, has
answered critics of the proposed new
constitution for Illinois.
Gen. Davis said that objections
based on omissions of the phrases Gin
the year of our Lord" and "a. D." are
groundless and that these omissions
do not make the document defective
eff the omission in referring all
dates back to the beginning of the
Christian era would justify rejection,
the United States and Illinois would
have lost their charters because the
same objection can be raised to the
Magma Charter, the Declaration of
Independence the Constitution of the
the United States and Illinois. three
past constitutions"

+, WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH
THESE ALDERMEN?

The proposal of Mayor Thompson,
several other corporations, to estab-
lish motor bus service in Chicago met
a poor reception in the subcommittee
of the council local transportation
committee appointed to inquire into
the subject. 4. ,
Alderman John Toman announced
he would oppose any bus scheme un-
til surface cars have been put into
subways. Chairman Thomas O. Wal
lace said an official of the Lincoln
Park board reported it costs four
times as much to keep Sheridan road
Chicago Notorious Company under its
franchise.
Alderman Samuel O. Shaffer, the
third member of the subcommittee
said he would insist on a license fee
that would cover damages to pave
ments.
B. ]. Fallon of the Elevated Lines
explained the roads could not pay a
heavy tax on buses to be used as
feeders unless it was charged up to
fares, "our only source of revenue"
Aldermen Wallace and Toman adj
mitted they were opposed to, the Sur.
face Lines arrangement whereby the
city is paid S. per cent of the net re
ceipts.
The committee decided an investi
cation of the operation of busses in
other cities should be made before
passing on the subject. This ques
ton will be submitted to the entire
committee for consideration.

GOOD WORK.

At Tuesdays City Coucil meeting
Alderman u. g. Schwartz, chairman
of the local transportation committee,
introduced resolution calling for one
way streets in Chicago's loop district.
The action already has the hearty sup
port of Chief of Police Fitzmorris. The
resolution set forth that congestion
was daily becoming more intolerable
in the loop and that traffic in one di-
rection in single thOrOughfare
seemed to be the only solution.
Aid. Schwartz came in for bouquet
through a resolution introduced by
Aid. Dorsey r. Grove, rendering the
thanks of the city council to him and

him on the committee which worked
to bring about the settlement of the
recent street car strike. The council

Farewell, Old Sleeper

@NE evening after supper,
when he was resting and
had nothing else to do, old
Mr.. Pullman sat down and in
vented the sleeping car-and
nobody has had any rest since.
Up to the present time the
sleeper has been a cozy, chummy
little nest, housing thirty or forty
queer birds, who snore in differ
ent keys and sleep with one foot
sticking out in the aisle.
But this is soon to be changed.
Railroads are now building new
sleepers containing seven sleep
ing rooms each. The comfort
able old hunks which used to
line the walls and invite passen-
gers to sweet dreams will be torn
out and will be known to civiliza-
ton no more.
The only thing left unchanged
will be George, the porter. He
will still occupy a nook >in the
end of the car, where he can shut
himself off from the whole world
and dream about sevens.
The sleepers, In other words,
will be made up entirely Of draw
ing-rooms, and those who can't
draw or have left their drawing
materials at home, can 60 to bed
and make a bluff at sleeping.
Railroad authorities declare
that the taste Of travellers Is
changing; that they demand more
commodious, comfortable quar-
ters and more modern conve-
niences.
We don't know how the rail-
road authorities ever got that
idea. The people have been
kicking about uncomfortable
sleeping cars for only forty years,
and 1t doesn't BEEN possible that
these kicks have reached the rail-
road authorities so soon.
But the passengers will miss
some Of the entertainment fea-
lures Of the sociable old sleeper.
Many of them win miss the aero
