Is in l.tct well as tin ory a party to the t.ult of the Ti r;' Haute, Indianapolis iw Hastf-rri Trartion int rests against tho jitney liu-s, instit uted brfore tho Mate public rvi(.f commission, bocame evident yetrday in a telegram from Indianapolis announcing the presence there at tho hearing of Atty. V. A. Mclro rr.y to represent tho local onrcrii. Simultaneously, ( fiuncilmen of South I 1 1 I v re in reenpt of a i.-v ilraft of an ordinance for passage by tho cit , mailed anonymously, hut ,.iito evidently tho concept of tho trartion Intones. Melnerny. at Indianapolis, according to tho telegram, makes tho cnvf rt threat that unless jegiiJation hy the oniimissina proves: availahlo as tho result of the suit, no ninri: money will be invested in traction Urns, rractlcally all the big traction companion of tho state have interpleaded with the Torre Haute petitioners and are being hoard hy tho ommissiori in an effort to put the jitneys under state regulation; this i otu ithstanding that tho legislature at tho last session refused to confer Mich power upon the commission. Tho presence of Atty. Melnorny at Indianapolis on this ease a.- counsel for tho Northern Indiana, miht ho something of a surpriso wero the' local traction magnates to bo taken serious incident to their r-c ent - denials 'ts to their being interested in tho Terre Jfauto petition. A knowledge of the I etition and of the contents uf the convincing" briefs of counsel, calculated to convince tho commission that tho legislature meant to empower it to regulate something that did not xist at the time of passage of the commission law, however, has hereloforo. been admitted. The hearing !f tho Terre Haute petition is said to have been "augmented" by the entrance of all the big traction interests Into tho case. Councilfiien Are Iu..lel. Counollmen in receipt of the anonymous Jitney ordinance are puzzled, anticipating Its source, that such a law diould he wanted, with the local trac.lon interests taking part in the ca.so before tho commission. Such, how. t'ver. Is tho expression of those who Have hecn Interviewed on the subject. Perhaps, it Is concluded, that such is lo bo tho type of regulation to he kslved rf tho commission, but more likely what the traction company will to willing to accept shou'al the commission suit fail. Attention is called jo tho fact that one. of the Murdock brothers recently purchased a half Inilllon dollar homo in Indianapolis, probably with tho money that the local street railways have been runWn,!? behind, not only since the jitneys hirae, but for years previous, preventing1 tho payment of any, dividends. Attention is also called to the fact lhat tbo ordinance- nceks to render iho cits liable for accidents of jitney uses, through accepting bonds front hem to protect the city, a responsibility that docs not now exist. Other features of tho proposed jitney ordinance follows: lropM'd Ordinance A llcen. feo of $1.' a year for the lirst vehicle, $10 for the socond and $5 each for every other vehicle in go-rv left. An annual bond of Jl.ooo for payment of damages resulting from accidents, etc. Vehicles must adhere to the principles of the present traflk ordinance. Must follow directions of patrons instead of operating only on streets where there are at present street car tracks. Jitney- bus drivers must not shout to patrons, but must wait until they :ue applied to for sei he. ries the maximum fee for each passeiiu't r at cents a trip, but fails to set forth a minimum fee. In .-ases where lomc trips are asked, the driver may ask a fee of cents, if the trip is one of more than one mile. Provides for a suspension of license if lights of ,i reasonable brightness are not displayed on cither side ami m the inside of cah chicle. Passengers of (loiiSd'ul character or intoxicated persons are not to be accepted l jitney bus drivers, if in their opinion the objectionable ones are detrimental to the security and peace of the other pa.'isejigers. Pro ides for a line not exceeding $l"o if the provisions of the ordinance arc not adhered to. and a j. til term of hot exceeding :bt days. n the whole, it appears the proposed ordinance is comparatively more i'avorable to the jitney bus dri rs than was the former one. a" it provides for a bond of only Jl.ooe. which while - Vil. at tho city's financial welfare, -'id be welcomed b the jitney 'bus ::;.!!: Such a bond w ill cost, if settled throuch a security company f s' mdimr, not more than $ U 11 a year, h - it was expected that that bond c. oubl not i t eed $lu, ""., or nearly J I to tli.' driver. lio,.j-. the drafters of the ordir t' e jaij, d, evidently, to weigh the I ' s ; ; ; -j , ! l a I." u ii 1 ; 1 1 1 , 1 .

Ily IoritIiy Di. . "i married a second time," said tho contented looking man. "for the best and happiest reason in tho world because I fell wildly, madly, passionately, romantically in love with a woman with a love such as no boy is capable of experiencing. "1 was one of the innumerable victims of early mar.'iage. When 1 wa nothing but an immature, undeveloped boy my fancy was caught by a pretty', little pink and white and gold girl, with rosy cheeks and baby blue eyes, and yellow curls. We had the same taste in ice cream soda, and our steps matched in dancing, and from these groat and unmistakable evidences of mutual sympathy, we decided that we were created for each other, and had been mysteriously brought together by an All Wise Providence. "It is one of the greatest blessings of poverty that most buys haven't enough moncv to marry their lirsf sweetheart, and by the time they havo accumulated the wherewithal to o to housekeeping n they have recovertd completely- from their attack of calf love and so they are saved from wrecking their lives on the rocks of a vouthful marriage. "'Unhappily for me, 1 was an orphan and had como into a large fortune on my L' 1st birthday, so there was nothing to stand in the way of mv indulging in any kind of fatal folly to which I felt inclined, and before I was two-and-t wenty I had done my best to ruin my life by making an utterlv unsuitable marriage. A ;itl of Limitation. rnderstand mo. I am saying nothing against my little child wife

courts show little consideration for a muni, it. ilitv's Hiiiincial situation.

The ordinance further provides that

the rubs of the present tramc ordinance must be adhered to strictly. This seems an unnecessary ruling, according to members of the council who neeived copies of the ordinance, since it has been said by otlicers in charge of the city's tratlic that the jitj.ey bus drivi r is the most careful observer of t rathe rules in the city. He. .ilso. realizes that to keep the jitney 1 us t rat lie alive, it behooves him to live hp to tho regulations of the city. An evidence that tho newest bill came from the street car company is embodied in that section which provides that jitney buses shall be barred from streets upon which there are at present street car tracks, or shall at least be governed by the directions mven by its pa-ssengors. This section is criticised more loavily. perhaps, than any other. Monitors of the touneil who received the proposed ordinance declare that competition and profit are killed, if such a section is allowed to exist in an ordinance. That the ordinance was expected to have been given the consideration of the committee of the whole of the common council at its lat meeting, was proved by the fact that copies of the lull were received by all members of the c-Mincil Tuesday morninc. preceding the ni'ht of the committee's regular meeting. However, so little was the dummy ordinance considered that not one member reported having received a copy.

Jitney bus drivers of the Ity. wnen

God rest her soul in whatever heaven she inhabits. ishe was ius she was made, a good, dear, sweet little doll baby, a little girl who stayed 16 to the end of tho chapter, whose interests in the world vveie hound hy her own little circle, and whose aspirations never reached higher than pink candle shades or a no v hat. "She never grew upt and I did grow up. That was our cruel misfortune. She stayed just where she was when we were married, and I went on studying, reading, learning from books and men, getting the bigger and the broader outlook on life a million new interests developing for me every hour of the day. "I tried to take my wife with me. I would talk to her of my hopes, and plan and aspirations, but ghe did not understand and would complain that the things that I was ambitious to do would take me away from home, and that we were so comfortable as wo were. "Not two years after we were married I faced the ghastly fact that 1 had made the most terrible of all mistakes, that I was hound for life to a woman with whom I had nut one single thought in common, a woman who could no more he a companion to me than etild the Dresden statuette upon the mantelpiece. Worse still. 1 knew with deadly certainty that my boyish fancy for her had dickered out. and ir the light of my manhood's knowledge J realized that I had never really loved her at all. I had only imagined I had. "I went through years of this hideous mockery of keeping up the pretense of sentiment and happy home and husband, and all the balance of the domestic drama, and then my child wife died just as the gold in her hair was turning to ashes. "I was left a middle-aged man who had drunk deeply of a bitter cup. 1 was sadly wise in matters of sentiment, and cynically suspicious of the vagaries of the human heart, and if you had told me that I should ever marry again I should have laughed you to scorn. I had tried it. Never again. Resides, J should have said, 'I am too (dd for romance. That belongs to boyhood, to sweet one-and-t wenty, not the cautious forties.' "And then the One Woman came along, and I went down before her like ripe grain before the sickle. I was the man, mature, knowing all that I needed, all that I wanted, my tastes formed, my ideals crystallized, and when I, found the woman who embodied my every desire, I kne.v that there could be no mistakes, no disappointments, no disillusioning. "And I found out that a boy's love is as water unto wine compared to a man's love; that a boy's passion is the shadow of a llame to the conllagration of a man's; that a boy's romance is pale and colorless to the pomp and splendor of the romance with which the mature man crowns his love. "A hoy's love! A child's fancy. 1 tell yot. it is this love of the midilleaged" man that strikes the tire out of men's souls. Hy the grace of God this came to me. and that is why I married a second time."
