PLAY FOR ELEVATED TRACKS 0021TIVIKS TO BE TALKED .ABOUT,
More Expreaalons from Bnufoeae Men Gathered by The Yewa—Some Are for !< and Some Are Agalaat It.
The plan of track elevation proposed by City Engineer Jeup Is still being discussed by business men and cltlsens generally, Following are additional expressions gathered by The News: Danlrf Stewart Company—This house is against elevating the tracks, firm, because of expense; second, because w>4l§ not believe it practicable; third, because It would involve the moving of the freight depots, and that would Injure our business materially. There Is much more to be said against track elevation than In Its favor. Indianapolis will need to be much larger before an experiment involving such perilous consequences should be tried Avery Manufacturing Company—We are In favor of depressing the tracka This course Is suggested by the natural advantage we have in Pogue's run. Of course, the water in the run would have to be provided for, and proper engineering could take care of that. To depress the tracks Would be cheaper and better than elevating them. At the Union station tt would be better to go down to the cars than to climb up to them. Expease of Dvayaore. Severin ft Co.—We are much opposed to track elevation. It would probably mean that we would have to run our druys three or four miles to get to the freight depots. This would mean an additional expense, and would put us at a disadvantage with competition from other cities. Indianapolis Drug Company—We have always thought It a matter for future consideration. It Is too early for this city, but unless the change would move the freight depots to the suburbs, it would not greatly inconvenience us. Van Camp Hardware Company—We do not think the time has come to push this question of elevating the tracks. We have some advantages in Indianapolis aa a jobbing cen.er on account of our ability to ship goods without delay. If tracks are elevated, the result will be to remove the freight depots to the suburbs, which would be greatly to the disadvantage of the JobMng Interests. W. J. McKee—Personally, I am not in favor of elevating the tracks. The scheme la unjust to railroads, and would Interfere greatly with the Interests of shippers. Injury to Sontlt Side. Louis Hollweg—A change to a system of elevated roads would work an injury to the South Side. Putting the tracks on walls sixteen feet high would add 25 per cent of damage to property on the South Side. Viaducts and safety gates are what are needed. A. Burdsal—I am in favor of elevating the tracks if it can be done without damage to the business interests of the city. Albrecht Kipp—This matter of track elevation is of such far-reaching Importance that we should proceed carefully. Track elevation should be accomplished without demage. Our shipping facilities may be shaped so in tbo future that elevation will not interfere with them. L. H. Blanton—1 am not In favor of elevated tracks. There is a better way of relieving the people of this city from danger and delay at railroad crossings, aqd that Is by means of viaducts and safety gates.

Former Police Matron of This City Becomes Jail Matron ftt Louisville.
Mrs. Anna Logan, formerly Mrs. Anna Buchanan, of this city, has been appointed Jail majron at the city prison of Louisville, Ky. Mrs. Logan was appointed police matron In Indianapolis several years ago, the appointment being made by Mayor Sullivan's Board of Public Safety. At that time the plan of a police matron was an experiment, and the police station had no suitable quarters. Mrs. Logan was so successful In her work that she received police powers, and soon raised the system to a high plane. Hers was one city office that was not affected by changes In the administration.

Virtues of Salt Water Baths. [Ladles' Home Journal.] For a hand bath (a bath given to the body by use of the hands only, or bv sponge or cloth) place a handful of salt In basin as ordinarily filled for washing. Allow the salt to dissolve, or hasten the action by stirring It with the hand. The water should be ao cold as you have vitality to withstand. Use no soap. Bathe the entire body. Do not neglect the face and neck In the free use of the salt water. This bath has an exhilarating Influence, tones the entire system, and gives to the skin a healthful condition that amply repays for the time and trouble involved. If used In the winter It will be an excellent preventive of colds, besides being a substitute for face cosmetics. No chapping, no roughness of the skin and no
clogging of the pores will trouble the person who systematically and regularly takes & bath of this sort. Ordinary table salt or rock salt will do, but will not do so well.
