though It will probably he delaved un-

into Deep Fork and then on into Brit-

present May wood and Knglewood ex-

A riot call was Immediately Bent in

finally quieted after one man who

plans of construction have been made
for beyond Deep Fork. As soon as
the May wood and Rnglewood exten-
sions are completed we will push the
work on the extension of a new line
to the vicinity of Deep Fork. We will
either continue straight norfh from
the end of the University line or di-
verge in a northeasterly direction to
a half mile east of the present track
and then north. After we have built
Into Deep Fork, if the demand for

will be several days before the defi-

has every reason to think It will. Ha
is experimenting with poetry as a
deterrent. Sunday he locked 100 in
mates of the workhouse in the assem-

them. The scene was heart-rending.
Several men, in frantic efforts to es
cape, threw themselves against tha
door only to fall, bruised snd psnt-

me out. let me out!"
Other persons, who have had n<9
visible means of support for 20 years,
aged, decrepit, crawled to Crane, nnd
with tears streaming down their
wrinkled cheeks, sobbed:
"Take, oh—take—me *e the wood-
yard—I—will work. Anything rather
than this."
