Tuesday morning, the 28th instant, street car service will be resumed over both tracks on Walton Way. Street paving operations on this avenue have materially interfered with car schedules for many weeks. But with Walton Way "OPEN” for normal traffic Thirteenth street (McKinne) will be the only remaining route to be traversed by single track. When paving on this street is completed by the City we will be able to resume the complete and satisfactory schedule of March Ist. This, of course, applies not only to the patrons on the Sum merville side of the Hill, but to those on the Monte Sano (southern) side, as well as to the Lake View’, Turpin Hill and eastern parts of the lines. We sincerely deplore the delays and annoy ance caused passengers by torn-up streets, but wish to make known the fact that the street car company is up with its part of the work in this section of the City and has cooperated fully with the City author ities and paving contractors in an effort to com plete this work with the least possible delay.

MeCulloh, who rose from a 33-a-week clerk to president of the New York Tele phono Co. When announcement recently was made of his elevation to head of this big concern, MeCulloh was in the Maine woods on the trail of trout. He has fish'd since he was a barefoot boy, with sapling for rod and pin for hook. MeCulloh has developed great pa tience. He has had to. There are 1,- 200,000 subscribers to the telephone company he head*. Phone users nre notoriously tho most Impatient of humans. All the great waves of complaint, kicks, service troubles and the like come breaking at his door, sooner or later. When such problems loom. Mc- Culloli packs his rods and flies and hooks and Ib off to the woods and trout streams to blot prejudices and impulses from his mind and gain u fresh nnd detached viewpoint. Thus far he has never failed to find the correct answer. And In building his life to suc cess. this phllosophlv parallel has been drawn with striking clarity. Patience hns been an extremely Im portant feature. “I always wanted to build some thing." he exclaimed. That takes patience, ns any boy will tell you. At the age of eight he waa swing ing a miniature telephone across the side yard. At 18 he was working for a New Jersey railroad for $ a week. Hlnce 1896 he has been patiently fighting his way up. Hut It was about four years ago that his greatest trial was faced. A veritable landslide of complaint came upon the company.

McCulloch took a careful look at the situation and came out with the amazing public admisnion: "You’re right. Service Is rotten. Something has to be done about It. You’ve got to be Just a little pa tient.” Shortly afterward McCulloch ad ded tills to his original statement: “While the service is bad. we can’t make It any better if every phone user is going to take off the re ceiver prepared to cuss at the op erator. Things can’t get better If a man stands at the receiver with his fist "doubled ready to smash something: He’s got to co-operate.” And, today, recalling, the events of the past, MeCulloh makes inter esting observations on phone users; “Poor phone service Is In a vast number of cases the fault of the Individual and not the company. This isn’t an alibi. It’s a fact. I’ve said that a fisherman had to be a good sportsman; well, a phone user has to he a better one .and he rare ly Is. He goes to the phone and gives the girl some incoherently uttered number, nnd begins to curse when she asks him to repeat It. Ten cranks can absolutely ruin a fine operator for the day. “A phone office is the greatest place In the world to study human psychology. There you’ll see man In all his unrensonab’c phases. It Is a faot that ope can sit back in a phone office and. without knowing what Is going on In tho outside world, almost prognasllcate the ups and downs of mankind by the serv ice reports. The war nnd its nftor math proved that. We have never known such systerlcal actions on the part of the phone-using public as marked those days.” MISS LEWIS To Demomonatrate Cham bers Range Again Tomorrow Tomorrow is the last day of the special cooking demonstration now being conducted by. the Gas Com pany at BS4 Broad street and those who aro Interested In cooking should not fall to nttond. During the week Miss Lewis, of the Gas Company’s Home Service Depart ment. hns prepared many tempt ing dishes snd cooked them all with the gas turned off on the Cham bers Gas Range. Today, for Instance, two ducks were cooked In tho Chnmhers oven with the gas on, hut 30 minutes at other times during the week vari ous kinds of cakes, roasts, breads nnd vegetshles have been cooked In the oven of this wonder range with the gas turned off.

He does not state he understands this to be so, but makes the positive statement that it is so. As auditor of the Board of Education I wish to say that this is absolutely untrue. In a letter published in the Herald Sunday, the 19th, I gave the facts and figures, and offered free access to the books to any one w’ho desired to verify them; so he is evidently not seeking correct infor mation, and why he does not avail himself of the privilege given him I do not understand, unless it should be that misrepresentation suits his purpose better than the truth. This particular card to which 1 am replying is really amusing. In one sentence the writer berates the Board of Education for being unbusinesslike, and in another he takes them to task for their not making public the cost of the land for the new’ high school and submitting also ar chitects’ plans and contractors’ estimates of cost of the building. What prudent business man would first pro ceed to purchase a lot and to incur the cost attached to these things until he has made his financial arrange ments? Surely he knows that when a prospective builder employs an architect to prepare plans on which a con tractor can make bids, he has to pay for these plans whether he ever uses them or not. It affords me pleasure tp state to him and to the pub lic that I am reliably informed that the Trustees of the Richmond Academy are williiur to combine their corpus, approximately SIOO,OOO, with the $300,000 derived from the sale of bonds, making a total of $400,000 with which to purchase a site and erect the Richmond Academy, pro vided that it is distinctly understood that the total cost of this entire plant shall not exceed a limit of $400,000; so the tax payers may rest assured that this will be the total expenditure for this school., COST OF MONTE SANO AND SCHOOL BUILDINGS.

EDGEFIELD JUDGE Says Executions Should Be Held in Public SPARTANBURG, S. C.— Judge J. W Devore, of Edgefield, presiding at the eurrent term of general sessions court, denied Wednesday having said or Intimated that he preferred execu tions by hanging when he delivered his charge to the grand jury Monday morning at the opening of the crimi nal court. He said that his charge had been misconstrued and editorials quoting him as being in favor of go ing back to the old system of execu tions by hanging were unfounded, and were probably based on misquoted dispatches. A statement given out Wednesday by Judge Devore is ns follows: “My charge to the grand jury' Mon day morning was intended only to advocate having the death sentence executed in public. I did not Inti mate that I was In favor of going back to the old method of executions by hanging. I am In favor of execu tions, where that penalty must be Im posed, by electrocution, or any other method that will cause less pain and suffering. “I advocate that persons who have been meted out the death sentence should he executed in public at or near the county sent of the countv In which the person is tried, convicted and sentenced. The execution should be done publicly and openly for the purpose of retting an example, which example can not he set if the gniltv person in executed In private, cither by hanging or electrocution.” NEGRO ON TRIAL On Charge of Killing White Man Near Hamburg AIKEN, S.

Allen, of 26 Forbes St., Rochester, N. Y., suffered for years with rheumatism. Many times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work. He finally decided, after years of ceaseless study, that no one can be free from rheumatism until the ac cumulated Impurities, commonly call ed uric acid deposits, were dissolved in tho joints and muscles and expell ed from the body. Wltht this Idea In mind he consult ed physicians, made experiments and finally compounded a prescription that quickly and completely banished every sign and symptom of rheumatism from his system. He freely gave his discovery, which he called Allenrhu, to others who took it. with what might he called mar velous success After years of urging he decided to everywhere know about his niseovery through the newspapers. He has therefore In structed druggists everywhere to dls. pense Allenrhu with the understand ing that if the first pint bottle does not show the way to complete recov ery he will gladly return your money without comment.
