Police Matron Busy
Police Matron LowTance was a very
busy woman last night. All of the
! trains were very late and there was
a great crowd at the station nearly
all night. Women and children were
forced to wait for the delayed trains
and the attention given them by Mrs
* Lowrance was received in an appre-
ciative way. It seems that the right
woman has been secured to see after
the comfort and happiness of the
women travelers of this city.
