Washington, May 1'9.—Railways op-
erating in Central Passenger associa-
tion territory—including the states of
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan—
are permitted by an order issued oy
the interstate commerce commission to
exact higher passenger fares for in-
terstate than for intra-state business
where state legislatures or state com-
missions have established a two-cent-
a-mile rate.
The carriers in such instances are
forced by state railroad commissions

You may consider yourself fortunate indeed, for every

models. In fact we would not think of selling them at
the prices we are asking if the line was complete in sizes
and did we not need the room for our tailoring depart-

her home on Gaston avenue yesterday
with a 4 o’clock dinner complimentary
to Miss Lizzie Mae Connor. Eighteen
intimate friends of Miss Connor were,
invited to call. When they had assem-
bled the hostess threw open the dining
room, where a tea tabl£, burdened with
a May basket of marguerites and dec-
orated with whi'te and yellow ribbons,
stood ready to welcome the guests.
Mrs. Eugene Munger sat at one end,
serving sherberts, and Mrs. S. H. Boren
sat opposite, serving fruit salads. Oth-
er tidbits and dainties conducive to
social lingering about a table were
to be had. Mrs. Phillip Lindsley pre-
sided with her daughter.
“The home was decorated with spring
flowers which were sent as remem-
brance by friends.
“Miss Connor wore an afternoon
frock of embroidered mull over pink
and a lace Charlotte hat.”
The executive committee for
Third Annual Cotton Carnival
adopted tfie same colors as last year—•
white and green—for this year’s cele-
bration,
ficient bunting of these shades on hand
and on the way to supply the demand ;
for decorations for the carnival.
The grain exhibit will be larger and
better this year than ever before, and
it is quite probable contests will be
arranged for the exhibitors or grow-
ers of the largest and finest cereals.
Contractors visited the auditorium
yesterday to draft plans for convert-
ing the big building into an open
structure. The poor ventilation and
bad light were a serious drawback to
the first two carnivals, and it is now
planned to cut out the sides of the big
structure in sections and put them on
hinges so the sides of the building can
be opened up. This will insure a free
circulation of the cooling gulf breeze
and plenty of light in fine weather.
A skylight or two will be installed,
and the electrical lighting system is
being arranged to make the interior of
the big building at night one blaze
of illumination.
It has practically been decided by
the executive committee not to have a
big band for daily concerts, but to
spend several thousand dollars for
seven or eight bands of music to fur-
nish music on the grounds and in the
auditorium day and night, as well as
have two or three musical organiza-
tions to furnish music on the streets.
There are three good bands with the

from female trouble, and was almost
wild, with pain in my head.
“I wrote you for advice, which I fol-
lowed as carefully as possible, and
after using seven bottles of Cardui, I
received great relief.
“I continued to use it, and finally
was cured and raised from my bed of
agony. Cardui saved my life, when
nothing else would help me and I can’t
be thankful enough for what it did
for me.
“I recommend it to all my friends
and neighbors. Two have already tried
it and found relief.
“I thank the Lord for planting the
herbs and showing you how to pre-
pare Cardui for our good.”
You may be sure, if Cardui will re-
lieve and cure such serious cases as
Mrs. Carson's,—and it is doing it ev-
ery day—th&t it will, much more
quickly and certainly, help those wom-
en who have no serious symptoms, but
are just weak and ailing.

prove the appetite and build up

itself.

The committee has arranged for an
extensive Philippine exhibit, said to be
one of the best in this country. This
will prove a most interesting and in-
structive attraction.
There will be about eight or ten
parades, almost a parade of some kind
every week day or night during the

fish and reptile and animal life found
in the gulf. Details for this exhibit

“Considerable routine business was
transacted at the morning meeting, in-
cluding reports of officers and com-
mittees for the past year.
The luncheon at 1 o’clock at the
Driekill was exceptionally elegant and
enjoyable. Covers were laid for thir-
ty-one members of the society and
an (elaborate nine-course luncheon was
served in faultless style. The table
decorations were pansies in the colors
of the society, blue and buff. Mrs.
A. W. Houston of San Antonio pre-

program, which included appropriate
responses by Mrs. James E. Clark, Mrs.
Albert Burleson, Mrs. A. N. McCallum,
Mrs. Seabrook Sydnor of Houston, Mrs.

The commission expresses the opin-
ion “that the present condition tof
charging one rate a mile for intrastate
traffic and a higher rate a mile tor
interstate, when the service performed
is the same in both cases, in inde-
fensible.”
Interstate and intrastate passengers
are carried on the same train and
same cars and are accorded equal priv-
ileges. It seems clear that eventually
there must be established an actual
distinction between the two services
or a correction of the scale of fares
to' an equality. „
“In the territory indicated intrastate
fares are on a basis of two cents,
while interstate fares are made on
scale of 2% cents a mile.”
mission says 'that no proof was offered
of the insufficiency of the two-cent
rate to yield a fair return to the car-
riers, but that the carriers had asked
for time in which to prepare the nec-
essary data.
The commission permits the carriers
therefore to exact tiie higher rate un-
til May 1, 1912.
The commission denied the request
of the carriers to adjust their charges
in multiples of five, in order to avvid
the use of pennies in change.
