CAPT. PIPER IS THE LATEST HERO OF NEW YORK WOMEN. the alert and cover at a trot a section of the avenue which ti a week ago was, from 4 to 6 in the afternoon, ‘a place of interlocking carriages, of slow exasperating progress of impatient women, of quarrels between vociferous jehus strugaiing for the right of way. | Roundsman Costigan, who initiated the four policemen at the corner of Canal etreet and Broadway into the new system, Is now stationed at Forty- second street. The other three congested corners are in charge of Roundsmen Maher, Burne and MoCullogh. All four men have been detailed from Capt. Piper's personal staff to ghia duty. An Evening World writer, who, in company with six or seven other women, walked leisurely across the cleared Fifth avenue crossing, when the shrill whistle sounded onos and three uplifted hands of a6 many policemen held the halted carriages at bay, learned some very Interesting facts from Roundsman Coe- tigan @s to the working of the new sys- tem. “The young women caught on at once ‘omen Pedestrians Rejoice Over the Passing of the Jug- gernaut Period, Thanks to the New Regulation.

One of these, Officer Brennan, bears a whistle which regularly at minute in- tervals he blows throughout the day. One shrill whistle and carriages, auto- mobiles and the lumbering Fifth mue "buses come to a dead stop.

But that era has passed, The races blended and this blend in turn devel- oped not only one but a half-dozen types of American face. There are at least nine of these types in and around New York. Among the Greater New York faces may be cited ithe Broadway fare, the Bowery face, the Brooktyn face, the Harlem face, the commuter face and the farmer face, Women, as well as men, show these Ikenesses.
