Sir Hildebrand had six sons. He had had seven, but one of them! had been hanged for some crime, The fond father, in summoning his sons to dinner, was wont to call all seven, because, as he explained. for the | fe of him he could never remember which one had been hanged. i | Of the six survivors none had any especial ability except Rashletgh.; , who was, Incidental! thoroughpaced scoundrel, crafty and unscrupw! lous. Between Francis and his cousin Rashleigh at first sight sprang op | a mortal hatred, fanned to white heat by the fact that both loved Diana , George 1. was King of England. And in Scotland the Jacobite faction) was busy plotting to depose him and restore the Stuarts to the Engl throne. Rashleigh, I!ke Diana and the latter's exiled father, was a strong Jacobite But when Diane refused to marry him he turned traitor, betrayiog Jacobite secrets to the Government By way of enriching himself and injuring Francie he abeconded with valuable papers belonging to Fraat cla's father.

Serious complaints have been made to this Commission r tive to unnecessary noises made by the operation of cars and tr through the streets of the city. Inspections made by inspectors of this Commission indicate that if the companies should give «loser attention to the condition of cars and tracks a very considerable Gecrease in noise would result. Greater care in the lubrication and . condition of the parts of the cars and in the condition of track ivints and switch points Is accordingly urged upon the companies by this Commisrion. The Commission firects this improvement in the hope that the companies may voluntarily cause such @ change in operation that formal proceedings by the Commission as to specific instances of faulty contruction or operation may be réndered un- necessary. | 1 Five years ago the Public Service Commission, through William R. Willcox, then its Chairman, sent the above warning to the various street railway companies of the city. To-day the needless noises nade by cars on surface, elevated and eabway lines are more nerve-racking, persistent and intolerable than they ever were. Piercing screeches from faulty brakes or from car wheels grinding over unoiled curves and switches split the eardrums and tear cruelly at the nerves of thousands by day and by night.

But it is one which the | Public Service Commission once in plain terms ordered the companies te remedy. Nevertheless this same noise ie to-day among the mont terrible | and nerve-destroying from which the city suffers. } Has the Public Service Commission become stone deaf or is its name a joke? a partment duties could just as well be performed on a raised platform im the main tent.
