RECOLLECTIONS OF HOME
Contributed by One of Our West End
Business Men
After thirty seven years fiom home
batthng with the difficulties of lite
as they present themselves to us
from day to day, our mind naturally
takes a backward glance over life's
pathway.
This backward glance has been in-
tensited by a letter fiom mother—
the contents written by her dear
hand, the envelope addressed by fa-
ther, who, though a few years older,
has a steadier hand, so on the receipt
of this letter, the writer feels he has
received a letter from both,
There is something sweet in those
two words—father and mother, and
yet we regret to feel that such is not
the case with some. We have grate-
ful sons and grateful daughters in
this fair land of ours and we have
those that are ungrateful, but of
those we care not to write or call to
memory their ungratefulness.
Whether we will it or not, the
dark cloud of ungratefulness is ever
present, forcing itself
where it is not wanted. Mother
writes a post script in her letter—“I
send you these verses; they please
near, ever
me.”
I am the mother of bearded men, and
the names that I called them by

I would not turn them back
'o wander life's thorny
maze, to climb its
track,
But when the lonely evening comes,
and no one has need of me,
It's Oh, for the little children, who
once leaned upon my knee!
How appropriate and fitting is ev-
ery line when I tell you the one who
gent this clippiug is the mother of
five sons, four living, the fifth being
called from time while yet a little
child. This mother in her younger
days was given the name “Mary of
the Glen” by her schoolmates, and
though the hand of time has furrow-
ed that fair brow, and tho apparent
to the uninterested and disinterested
passerby, to the daughter and sons,
on their return home from time to
time, when they gaze into the eyes
that gazed into theirs when a prattl-
ing child, they realize beauty is only
skin deep—surface beauty—but the
beauty that lasts, that is internal and
eternal, so when we look into the
face of father and mother, we chil-
| dren see not the external that fadeth,
but reflected thru the windows of the
soul that internal beauty, the fruit of
love and years of toi] for their chil-
dren, a fact that is not appreciated
in early life.
To the sons she says “I would not
turn them back to wander again thru
life's thorny maze.” Nor would she
turn back and be a happy hearted
gir] again because in so doing she
would be compelled to erase its past
and erase from memory’s calender
her wifehood and motherhood.”
Reader, do you recall those lines
by Oliver Wendell Holmes? They
are to be found in the poem entitled
“The Old Man Dreams.”
“0 for one hour of youthful joy!
Give back my twentieth Spring!
I’d rather laugh, a bright-haired boy,
Than reign a gray-bearded King.
But when put to the test of giving
up the accumulation of years—educa-
tion, wife, sons and daughter, by the
listening angel, he replies,
‘Why yes, for memory would recail
My fond parental joys!
I could not bear to leave them all
I'll take my gir] and boys.”
So with this mother she would uot
girl and boys
for the joys of youth. We started
recollections of
home and the dear one and our mind
give up her husband,
out to pen a few

At any rate this is only a drop in
the ocean of one life Reader, may

ther, sister and brothers, as the case
may be, chase one another thru th

Cancellation of the Jo'nt Rate
Caled D.scrimii.a.ian
TERMINAL COSTS INCREASED
Monongahela Connecting Railroad and
Its Shippers Have Entered Separate
Complaint to Commission Against
Proposed Suspension on Intra-State
Business.
Pittsburgh, Pa.—Thousands of ship
pers and receivers of freight in Penn-
sylvania are awaiting with anxiety
the outcome of the complaint of the
Monongahela Connecting Railroad of
Pittsburgh, and the shippers along its
lines, made last ‘week to the State
Public Service Ccwmmission, asking
that the trunk lines be prohibited
from discontinuing the joint rates
with this terminal road. If the joint
rates are cancelled it means that the
shipper via the Monongahela Connects
ing Railroad will have to pay an ad-
ditional freight charge of 1; to 3 of
a cent per hundred weight, or ten to
fifteen cents per ton, on all freight
shipped or received by them over the
lines of the road. All shippers
throughout the state making use of
terminal roads would likewise be af-
fected and are therefore deeply inter-
ested in the outcome of this complaint,
The whole situation was brought
about through an opinion or sugges-
tion made to the railroads of the
United States by Commiss.oner James
S. Harlan of the Interstate Commeree
Commission to the effect that if the
trunk lines hope to get permission te
make a § per cent horizontal increass
in rates they had best cancel all
joint traffic arrangements with the so-
called industrial, or terminal or “tap”
line roads and thereby effect a sav-
ing of many millions of dollars a
year. The opinion in effect declared
that such roads are not railroads.
The Monongahela Connecting Rail-
road at one took exceptions and ie
now contesting this opinion and un-
dertaking to show the Interstate Com-
merce Cc ission that it is a bona
fide railroad in every sense of the
word, and that to permit the trunk
lines to cancel joint rates with it
would be to discriminate against the
shippers it serves by making them pay
additional for their service, whereas
shippers situated directly on a trunk
line would continue to enjoy the flat
Pittsburgh rate on all business inter-
changed between trunk lines.
Taking Commissioner Harlan’'s tip
the railroads have announced their in-
tention of cancelling these joint rates
not only on interstate, but on intra-
state business as well. It is because
of the latter being included that the
question was brought before the State
Commission on complaint of the Mo-
nongahela Connecting Railroad and its
shippers.
In proof of its contention that it is
a real railroad and not a mere system
of side tracks for the Jones & Laugh-
lin Steel Company, the Monongahela
Connecting Railroad is showing both
the State and Interstate Commis-
sions that it was originally built to
connect up the three powerful trunk
line systems entering Pittsbargh,
namely, the Pennsylvania, the Pitts-
burgh and Lake Erie (New York Cen-
tral system) and the Baltimore and
Ohio, and that it is today the only
connection among these three systems
which enables the many plants, mer
chants and individuals along its lines
to ship and receive freight at will
over any one or all three of these
principal trunk lines at the flat Pitts-
burgh rate.
The Monongahela Connecting Rail
road was chartered and built in 1886
and has lines for several miles along
both the north and south banks of the
Monongahela River with a bridge be-
tween. It is almost in the heart of
the city of Pittsburgh and in its most
crowded industrial center. The road
was chartered and built by the own-
ers of the Jones & Laughlin Steel
Company at the urgent solicitation of
the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie Rail
road, which at that time was entering
the city on the south bank of the
river to compete with the Pennsylva-
nia for some of the even then enor
mous business of the mills and fao-
tories. The construction of the Mo
nongahela Connecting Railroad enabled
the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie to get
across to the north bank of the river
and get its share of the business
there. When urging the construction
of the road, the Pittsburgh and Lake
Erie people agreed to make a traffle
contract with the venture, so that the
latter would get a portion of the flat
rate for its services. This was done,
The other railrosds were quick to
fall in line with the Pittsburgh and
Lake Erie, in offering the road a
share of the flat rate for the switch-
ing services, and the business in-
creased until last year, the Mononga-
hela Connecting Railroad Company
handled nearly 700,000 tons, outside
of all consignments to the Jones &
Laughlin Company. That {8 more
than ten other railroads of between
60 and 129 miles in length handle in
a year.
Until 1899 the only business the
Monongahela Company had on the
north side of the Monongahela River
were two little furnaces of Laughlin
and Company, but at the behest of
the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie, the
tracks were extended along the river
banks to the other industries. By
1888 it had reached all those indus-
tries which had only the service of
the Baltimore and Ohio, and this ar-
rangement gave them the open door
to all the roads. The Jones & Laugh-
lin furnaces, coke ovens and works
now on the north bank were not
started until twelve years after the
road was built.
The Monongahela Connecting Rail
way has a al of 36 miles of tracks
and seven team sidings, and that does
not include the private gs of the
Jones & Laughlin Steel Company nor
those of any of the other astries
located along i lines. ‘he lat-
ter Once represents the own rship
of t ra t a decision of the
United 1premse 1 made
ye ed a railroad was not
a railroad by its ownership, but only
when it performed a publ service.
That is whe ned for the Mo

This road is run in exactly the
same Ay as any ‘well-organiged rail-
road. It has 35 locomotives, lits own
round houses, shops and all the rest,
and is run according to printed

Under the tariff plans filed by the
railroads on the strength of the Inter-

roads is allowed to stand, all traffic
consigned to industries not on the
main lines will be left at junction
points, with an additional terminal
charge to be paid by the shipper over
and above the flat rate before he can

will be objected to by thousands of

Killing of Billmyer Fore'gner May

The evidence submitted rather fav-

The foreigner was killed by a bul

Can Shoot Rabbits if They Damage
Trees
Man's legal right to kill an animal
or bird, whether protected by law or
not, is fully set forth in a letter writ-
ten recently to a Potter county horti-
culturist by Professor H. A. Surface
State Economic Zoologist, from Har-
risburg. The writer complained of
trees being damaged by rabbits, and
stated that he had been fined for kil-
ling one of the rabbits; he suggested
that the State ought to allow dam-
ages under the circumstances. Zo-
ologist Surface replied:
“We have been sending out in-
formation at every opportunity to
tell the people how to prevent injury
to trees by rabbits and mice, and I
have used the methods for some
years on my own treeg without ‘dam-
age to the trees, either from the
treatment or from the rabbits. There-
fore, I feel hat the State has given
information as to practical and
efficient methods of protecting the
trees from injuries, and if you have
not applied this information the
State can not be to blame. The
method consists in spraying and
washing the trees with strong lime-
sulphur solution, made by boiling 1
pound of lime and two of sulphur in
each gallon of water for forty-five
minutes, and then diluting with six
or seven times its bulk of water, ad-
ding a half ounce of lead arsenate or
Paris green to each gallon, and
nraying it over tl} trees The rab-
will not eat [
applied. It should not prevent your
mulching the trees, or following any
other method of horticulture that you
wish It can he applied as a wash
with a brush.
“It is true that through the Game
Commission the rabbits are protected
but there is no law against a person
killing rabbits as pests if at the time
of killing them he lets them remain
on the ground or throws them away
Jike he would any other pest. When
vou shot the rabbit for which you
were fined, if you had let it remain
on the ground where you shot it,
they could not have fined you. A
person, of course, has a right to pro-
tect his property from damage, “but
he should first find out the legal
method by which this can be done.”
