BETTER CARS AND SERVICE ASSURED hr. H., I. & E. Traction Co. Finally Heeds Demand oj Local People.

,'' The starting of the summer schedule' for the city street cars will be the signal for several changes which the T. H. I. and E. officials have notified the local superintendent to make. Fairvievv cars will leave Eighth and Main streets for that suburb every fifteen minutes. This will be accomplished without making any transfers. The last car for Fairview leaves at Eighth and Main streets at eleven p. m. This schedule was started last Saturday night. It will only be continued as long as the patronage of the line seems to warrant it. The summer cars will be put in use soon, witbin a week or ten days. They have been revarnished, painted, some of them have been repaired with new seats and curtains, and they are in better shape for the season than they were last year. The street car officials state the summer cars will have to do for Richmond for some time yet. The company officials state they have already spent much .money here, and have about $30,000 worth of street improvements to pay jfor this summer, withlhe prospects if much more money to be spent in this manner later on. They state Richmond cannot have the best while the company is forced to spend all the profits and more besides on the improvement of the streets. The jbricking of a street' which is occupied jby a street car line means the spending of about $6 per foot for the permanent roadbed. Because of street improvements, the company officials state, Richmond people will have to be satisfied with imade over cars from Indianapolis inext winter. They state ten of these '"new" cars, which are much larger jthan the ones now used, will be operated here next winter. The company is now operating additional cars during the business hours to accommodate the rush in the factory districts. Superintendent Gordon indignantly denies that he has no authority to '.send out cars on short notice to ac:Oommodate a crowd for any occasion. He says he has had such authority for seven years, and that he cannot tell why the councilmanic investigat!ing committee ever made such an 'assertion. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS Roy C. Fry to Albert J.

According to information received today by Chairman Smith of the Titanic investigating committee, the steamer that is supposed to have been within five miles of the Titanic when she sunk was the Swedish vessel Helig Olas. WASHINGTON, April 23. Frederick Fleet who was the lookout in the crow's nest of the Titanic, said that en Sunday night about 10 o'clock he reported to the officers on the bridge that he had sighted a mass of ice ahead. Just how long this was before the collision the lookout could not say. The iceberg seemed to be about fifty or sixty feet above the water, he said. Bill and His Watch. "Bill, can you give me the correct time?" says one of Bill's friends. "Sure." says BiM. dragging out his watch. "My watch was just 'leven seconds slow at twenty minutes of 4 day before yesterday afternoon, and 1 don't believe it's varied more than a .quarter of a second since. It's now twenty-two minutes and ' seven seconds past 5." "Thanks, old man," says Bill's friend, who then drops his own watch into his pocket and goes on his way. Really he wasn't so particular about knowing the time himself as desirous of giving pleastire to Bill, for lie knows that Bill is one of the few million men in the world who think each that his watch is a wonder and who feel themselves flattered when their friends ask them for the correct time.

BOWLING SCORES

The schedule for the City Bowling league will close after the Giants-Ti-cer contest Friday evening. So far no team has first place cinched, although the Giants are at present leading the league, with the Quakers second, Tigers third and Browns last. The Reds dropped out of the race some time tgo. The Browns play the old Red team, now known as the Starr Pianos, Wednesday night and the Giants play the Tigers Friday night. This is really the deciding game and either the three leading teams can win first place, by the results of the three games Friday. So far the Giants have won 28 games and lost 14; the Quakers 29 and lost 16; the Tigers 26 and lost 16 and the Browns 24 and lost 18. A number of team and individual prizes are offered. So far the Giants have the high team score with 927; Frank Lichtenfels 'the high individual score with 255; Walter Runge the high average with 175 and 13 pins, although King follows him with 175 and 12 pins. Fred Mayer and C.

At the close of the City League schedule a city handicap tournament will open. Preparations are being made now and already a number of bowlers have entered. It is believed that all of the bowlers in the city will enter this tournament, which will be open to five men teams, two-men teams, and singles. Caught Her Secret.

Lie had been married for five and twenty long years, and Mrs. Podkins almost daily during twenty-four of them had disturbed the domestic peace by a too full exercise of her tongue. "My dear," broke iu Mrs. P., thinking it time she sa'.d something to in terrupt the quiet. "I see by the papers that a petritied jaw two yards long has been found in Cornwall." "What!" cried Podkins. starting up. "Now I know your secret. But you never told me your ancestors came from that part of the world!" Dundee Advertiser. WHY?

"Did you hear about the catastrophe down at the Browns' last night?" "No. What happened?" "Why. Mrs. Brown gave the baby a bottle to play with, and while she was in the kitchen it fell out of the crib and broke its neck." "What, the baby?" "No; the bottle." Not Just What She Meant. A little community of colored people had raised the money to build a new church, and the dedication was to take place the next day. "Where are you going tomorrow?" the schooltoncher asked one young girl. Smiling radiantly, she answered. "I's going to the degradation of our church!" Mamma's Joke. "Oh. mamma, the hen is sitting on ihe vacuum cleaner!" "Perhaps she's only trying to lay the lust, dear." Yonkers Statesman.

BOOKS

Of City Relating to Street Improvements. William Dehority, chief of the state board of accounts, on his visit here Saturday stated th expert accountants at work on the books of the local city officers would examine the books having to do with the old funds which were set apart for the street department. There is a very tangled case in regard to the disposition made of some of these funds, which the expert accountants hare not yet tried to straigh ten out. They put the matter up to the city, stating they were willing the city should employ some one else to straighten out these books. The council then passed an ordinance appropriating money for this expense, but an expert has not yet been employed, and now Dehority 6tates the examiners at work here will have to do this worw before they leave. The examiners some time ago stated the examining of this set of books would be very tedious work and would cost he city a large sum. The trouble seems to have arisen when moneys paid in for street Improments were thrown into the general fund and paid out of this fund without any record of the street improvement's share being kept. It is believed the city owes the street improvement fund a large sum. The practice has been changed now. and the books are kept in good shape. Circumstance A!tr Cases. When Israel Zangwill was an obscure youth teaching in a Jewish school in London he sent a short poem to a leading American monthly. It came back by an. early post, lie kept it, aud after he had achieved fame as a writer he sent the same pom to the same magazine. This time he received a cable from the editor offering to btiy the "world rights" for a large sum. The poem was the same, word for word. SATURDAY LEAGUE TO BE ORGANIZED Wednesday evening a meeting will be held at the 6tore of George Brehm for the purpose of organizing a Saturday afternoon baseball league. It is the plan to have at least six teams in the league and so far employes of the Starr Piano company, the American Seeding Machine company, Pennsylvania railroad. Eastern Indiana Hospital for the Insane, and members of the old Kibbey ball team and the Y. M. C. A. have signified their intention of joining the league. Most of the shops are closed in this city on Saturday afternoons during the summer. Everett Sullivan, manager of the Starr Pianos had his bunch out at Beallview park last Sunday and they are showing good form. Sullivan is arranging for a number of dates with other teams. The Waldorfs hare a number of dates for this season.
