through the town to the edifica-
tion of the hoi-polloi.
Then other street car lines
each owned by a different COM
pany-Sprang up.
The Metropolitan Railroad Com.
pany laid the Ninth Street line.
The work was done in a hurry
while the city was grading and
paving the road. The company,
in order to keep pace with its prog
ress, was forced to use wooden
rails when the steel ones gave
out.
HAD ADVANTAGES
However, these had their advan-
tages. All q motorman had to do
when he wanted to change his
route was derail the car and haul
it over the road to the return line.
In fact, folk showed no surprise if
the car suddenly was driven off
the tracks at any point along the
route, turned around in the mid
die Of the street, and headed in
the opposite direction. Sometimes
it went entirely around the block
before the motorman decided to
return to the rails.
Washington was proud Of its
new horse cars. Running six min.
uteS apart they were always filled
with citizens who rode whether
they had any definite destination
or not. It was, they said, delight.
ful to use the new vehicles in de-
lightful weather." But it was
tough when it showed. The cars
had no sides and the snow Cor
rain) came in unmoleSted. Some
times the floor and seats (and the
paSSengerS) were covered with
white flakes.
The companies, however, always
solicitouS for their passengers wei
fare, provided bales of mice clean
straw" for their feet. The motor
men, not so fortunate, wore, felt
boots and hoped for the best.
USED HAND BRAKE
Driving from the middle Of the
car (there were three seats on
either side in front, and three in
back Of him) he usually froze.
Often he had to stop the horse so
he could wipe the ice and sleet
from his eyebrows and mutton
chop whiSkers. His gloves, patched
until they looked like mittens,
clung to the leather reins, holding
up the horse when he slipped on
the cobhlestones.
If the car got too close to the
animal he just pulled a hand
brake. At night an oil lamp
Swayed from the ceiling.
By 1895 they were using two
horses instead Of one though the
cars themselves hadn't changed
much. They still lacked sides, but
the passengers didn't mind, first,
because they didn't know anything

Two Die Suddenly
Thanksgiving Day

Sudden death claimed two
victims yesterday and today.
Shortly after he had eaten a big
Thanksgiving Day dinner, Thomas
Macy Strumb, 81, fell unconscious
at his home, 676 Fourth st. N. e.
He was pronounced dead at Emer-
gency Hospital. Strumb came to
Washington several weeks ago
from Keysville, N. C.
Earl Frisby, 43, colored, was
found Slumped in his seat on a
street car at New Jersey Avenue
and I Street Northwest this morn
ing. He was taken to Casualty
Hospital, where physicians said he
had died Of natural causes.

better and, second, because the
view was lovely.
John Pendleton, who drove the
old horse cars during the Gay
Nineties" and who is still employed
as a motorman with the Capital
Transit Company, insists it was
easier to handle the old cars than
the new ones. Besides he too en-
joyed the fresh air (of which there
was plenty) and the scenery, as
he sped through the streets at
eight miles an hour.
ALL FRIENDLY
The passengers were friendly.
Everybody knew everybody else
and nobody objected when the
motorman waited for Neighbor
Smith two blocks away. If the
car wasn't crowded Mr.. Pendleton
would carry Mrs. MaSon'S market
basket to the curb, bow politely,
and return to his work.
He was well paid. Two dollars
a day and one day off a week.
Good money for a iarm boy-and
10 or IL hours q day was mild
compared to work on the farm,
Besides a single man could get a
nice room for IS cents a week
though it was a bit cold in winter.
Food was cheap. During his
bachelor days Mr.. Pendleton ate
at Mrs. Schaeffer's boarding
house. Located on what was then
ThirtyrSecond and M Sts., and is
now Wisconsin Avenue and M, the
Schaeffer'S pies and biscuits were
famous. They served a full course
dinner including chicken, mashed
potatoes, biscuits and pie for is
cents and a man could help him.
self. None of this monkey.busi.
ness Of having to ask for more.
It was there-and you just took
it.
DELIVERED FOOD
If a motorman could not leave
his car Mrs. Schaeffer, a motherly
woman, would personally deliver
a basket Of hot food as it passed
her door. No extra charge either.
Mr.. Schaeffer ran a saloon.
When Mr.. Pendleton married
and settled down he raised a
family on his $12 week. But
rent was SIT a month, pork 4
cents a pound and eggs II cents
a dozen.
Accidents were rare. Chiefly be.
cause speeding was unknown.
Even when the first taxis with
hard rubber-tired wheels came in
around 1897 the accident list was
practically nil. But then horse.
men were more conSiderate than
the modern motorists.
Asked if he would like to 60
back to the old street cars, Mr.,
Pendleton drawled:
we'll don't know. They'd
git mighty cold sometimes!"

1000 Work
To Stay at
Harvard

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. Oct. IA
d.N.S0.-Harvard may be a erich
mans" college, but over 1000 stu.
dents want part-time work to earn
money toward their tuition.
Whether the position Is that OF
a crooner, window washer, dog
walker, part-time plumber, there
is usually a Harvard man avail
able.
The object Of most Of the Job
seekers is to get q job that will
give them either room or board
or both.
Harvard authorities report that
in good years over 1000 students
find part-time work and earn be.
tween $3.50 and $500 q year.
Ordinarily, about one third Of
the college student body enrolls
with the university, employment
agency for work. In addition
about 500 Of the graduate school
apply.
The largest number find employ
ment as restaurant workers, enter
tainers, psychological subjects,
chauffeurs, delivery boys and win

During the past summer 400 Of
the students held vacation posi-

SECRECY LAID
TO COAL BOARD

dN.S0. Charging many of the
functions of the National Bitumi-
nous Coal Commission are being
carried on without the full knowl-
edge of all the members, John C.
Lewis, one of the commissioners,
today appealed to Senator Clyde
L. Herring of Iowa.
In letter to Herring, Lewis
asked the Senator to demand a
complete list of all persons EN-
ployed by the commission with
additional information concerning
their duties, salaries, and other
personnel data.
Lewis said he offered a resolu-
tion to the whole commission de-
manding this information, but the
resolution was defeated by the
majority members of the commits
sion at a special executive session.
In asking the commission for the
data, Lewis said:
There has developed a lack
of harmony within the commits
sion Not only to the en-
barrassrnent of the commission.
but also to those responsible for
it's creation. Then, too, the
press is in some instances the
first source of information to
some members of the commits
sion as to certain important
activities being carried on. This
is especially true as to the ap-
pointment of personnel to i'm
portant positions with the COM
mission.
1T is my belief that it will be
conducive to greater harmony
and a better spirit of coopera-
ton if each commissioner is fully
advised as 70 all important trans
actions including appointment
of personnel"
