...which, in itself, is an insult to the members of the Confernnce Francaise, such a transaction can be called nothing else than dishonest. That a man who calls himself a gentleman should stoop to such low means of adding a few dollars to his purse, is inconceivable. We would warn the students against such men.

...removed by a plough attached to the cable. In case any break occurs in the cable an alarm is sounded by electricity and the engines are stopped. The cars make so little noise while in motion that a bell is placed on the axle of the car to warn teams and pedestrians. The cars can be stopped as easily and as quickly as horsecars. In crossing a railroad or draw bridge a pair of horses are kept to pull the cars across. The cable system has worked well in Chicago, and has been in use for several years...
