“I.” ROADS For. BOSTON.

A Bill to Be' Reported For the LP!"-
pont Morgan Syndicate.

"Boston, May 11.—-The t'wo committees

of the legislature sitting together (on

.‘ metropolitan affairs and. street rail-

ways), which have given weeks to
hearings on the several petitions for

’ incorporation to build an elevated read

for Boston and its suburbs, will report
a bill in favor of 'J. Pierpont Morgan
and his syndicate. This company ob-
tained control of the West End Street
Railway company a few months ago,
and the entire west end system will be
leased to the elevated road company
and all the local transportation of the
street railway’s sort will be under con-
trol of one corporation, except a small
part retained by the Boston and Lynn
company on- the north. The new ele-
vated company will lease the subway,
and thus get a through line north and
south from Dorchester to Charlestown
and west to, Cambridge without going

' on the mail? streets, in the congested

a

VJ

section. A branch will run to the south
Union station, the foundations of which
arenow~being prepared, thence it will
follow the water front of the city, along
Atlantic avenue, around to the north
Union station. The bill will permit bag-
gage cars to be run on this section, and
so baggage can be transferred from

' one side of the city to «the other with

much less delay than now. The fare
will be 5 cents, no matter how great the
dYstance traveled.

A very important consideration has
not been settled by" the committee. The
petitioners want their privileges guar-
anteed for 30 years, without any inter-
ference on the part of the state or city.
Strong objection is raised to this as
tying the hands of the public for an
unreasonably long time. The privileges
in the bill are to be guarded so that
there will be a heavy forfeiture in case
the road is not in operation within a
reasonable time. \

There is in the committee a. friendly
feeling for the Boynton bicycle rail-
road invention, and it is possible that a.
charter will be granted to build a line-
between Boston and Fall River. The
committee is satisfied with the mechan-

' -ical merit of the invention, but the

question is whether Mr. Boynton will
consent to give other persons a share
in the management of the enterprise.

V Forger Stout. Gets Three Years.

’ New York, May 11.—Thomas H. Stout,
the forgér who eluded the police for

on Friday, was sentenced today to
three years in ‘Sing Sing. Stout had
been em°ployed by Jones, Kennett &
Hopkins, Wall street brokers. He col-
lected on the forged checks at the H01-
land Trust company.

x Politics In 3 Chapel.

New Haven,” May 11.—Several mem-
Bers of the Center Congregational

'NURWALK SPEAKS.

And in No Uncertain Tone—People
Mean What They Say. '

A great work is going on in Norwalkj.
Quietly, steadily and successfully a.
powerful force is exerting itself for the
good of the people. _ ‘

When it is was annohnced that the
great' medicine, California Catarrh
Cure, which is, without question, the
greatest; remedy for catarrhal trouble
ever compounded, was to be offered to
Norwalk, the number. of pebple who
turned out and admitted themselves
victims of this obstinate and hitherto
incurable disease, was astonishing.

1y announced that they suffered, and
had for years hopelessly suffered, from
hawking, hemming, bad breath, slime
in the throat, dropping of ofi‘ensive
matter into the throat, headacheS, gag-
ging, choking, nausea, stuffed feeling,
and increasing deafness. They had
catarrh in every form, from acute at-
tacks that. can be cured in a week, to
the worst cases of chronic catarrh, the
most persistent disease in the world,
that yields to nothing but California
Catarrh Cure.

Already its wonderful cures are be-
ing talked of in N orwalk.

One of the people who got a bottle of
California Catarrh Cure at R. H. Plais-
ted’s on that memorable 18th of Decemf
her, was Mr. D. C. Craft, 11 East ave-
nue, East N orwalk. He had long been
troubled with a very annoying form of
catarrh; he tried the great medicine,
and we have the result in his own
words. He says; “I find that Cali-
fornia Catarrh Cure’ has relieved me
very much. It keeps my head and
throat muéh clearer than they have
been for a long time, and the relief is
wonderful.
tarrh in any form will surely find it an
excellent remedy. It relieves at once,
and I believe the result is permanent.”
California Catarrh Cure is sold by all
dealers for 500., three times as much
for one dollar. In case of hay fever

They came in scores, and unhesitating- '

Anyone suffering from ca- .

 

California Catarrh Cure gives immedi-
ate relief, and if used in season it will
entirely prevent the malady. I

A Typographical Question.

Assistant Secretary Day Sworn In.
Washington, May 12.-—-W. B. Day of
Ohio took the oath as assistant secre-

TRY GRAIN-O! TRY GRAIN—0!

Ask your grocer to-day to show you
a package of GRAIN-0, the. new food
drink that takes the place of coffee.
The children may drink it without in-
jury as well as the adult. All who try
it like it. GRAIN—O has the rich seal
brown of Mocha or Java, but it is made
from pure grains, and the most deli-
cate stomach receives it without dis-
15c. and

tress. 1A, the price of coffee.
25cts. per package. Sold by all gro-
cers. '

tcr’s edge. No attempt will be made to
save the part of the vessel not destroy—

the vessel, who were taken off by the
beat-s of the life saving station, went
to New York today.
