I have no doubt the readers of the Virglninn-Pilot in this place appreciate the faithfulness of the newsboys III trying to deliver their papers, but I wish to say that while the work is hard in the day it is still hnrder In the nighttime. Often the carriers do not meet with a ready response in their Saturday's collections, but are told to come again at night. SiK-h a reception as thrs_SubJeets the lads to the perils, of late hours, and this should be avoid? ed, especially In the case of children. Every reader knows that Saturday la collecting day, and why# not be ready . for the boys when they call in the day and hot compel them to return nt night? I trust this suggestion will be considered kindly and acted upon ac? cordingly. ?

EdHor Virginian-Pilot: For the benefit of your readers, and especially for the information of our City Fathers, who are to vote upon the measure, please publish again the following proposed "Ordinance" along with a ifew comments of my own, which I rcspectfuly suggest by way of caution: An Ordinance Giving Permission to Norfolk Street Railroad Company to Extend Its Tracks Along the Edge of the City Park. Section l.That the Norfolk Street Railroad, its successors and assigns, be and are hereby authorized to ex? tend and hereby given the privilege of extending Ms double tracks, operating its passenger cars by means of elec? tricity, from Church street, at v the north or south side of the City Park along tlic north or south skle or edge of the said City Park around to such point as may bo selected by the Park Committee, near the house known as the Old Homestead in the said park, on Tnnner's Creek, as shown by blue prints filed in the office of the City Engineer, marked railroad in City Park, with switches and-turn-outs as may be necessary; provided, that work nn construction be commenced in four months after the passage of this or? dinance and completed by 1st of July, 1900. Section 2. If the said privilege grant? ed by section 1 of this ordinance be exercised by the Norfolk Street Rail? road Company. Its successors or as? signs, and said tracks are extended nlong ekher north or south' side of said nnrk. then the Norfolk Street Railroad Company, its successors and assigns, shnll be nnd are hereby au? thorized to extend, and be given the further privilege of extending Its i double tracks with such switches and turn-outs n? may be necessary along the side of ?the said park other than that side which may have been already jyoreupied under Section 1 of this or? dinance, from the sr>id point near the [ Old Homestead to Churrh street, so i as to form a loop around said nark. ! or if the privilege be first exercised on 1 the north side of the nark of extend ! ihg from the point near the Old Home? stead to the keeper's house, as shown on the blue prints above-mentioned, and also to extend its tracks and oper? ate its cars by electricity by means of a bridge or -trestle aei-oss Tanner's Creek, from a point ner-r the keeper's house, and to the south thereof. So far ns the Councils have a right to grant said rlsphts. such additional priv? ileges granted by this section to bo ex? ercised at such times ns Norfolk S>:reet Railroad Company may deem proper to do so. Lights?Twenty-five ore lights, 500 candle power. Norfolk to furnish' poles, lam.ps and wires. Railroad shall place reasonable fences or hedges nlong side of Its tracks, ns may be deemed proper by the Coun? cils or Park Committee, and run cars to the Homestead from nnd to the city every fifteen mlnutes.l If the purpose of /he cjUlrond com? pany be simply to loop or encircle the park by laying u double track around ITS "EDGE" for the benefit of any who may desire to make the circuit, or land at stops around the park, it would be quite easy to simplify the grant and bring It within the space of a sin? gle short section. The first section asks for the privilege of running the track "along the north Olt the south side OR EDGE OF THE SAID CITY PARK." This gives either side for starting the tracks nround the park, so when one side is chosen nnd the tracks are run to the point selected near the old "Homestead," why not continue around the opposite side to the nplnt ot begin? ning and THUS "form a loop," If that is all'that Is intended? That certainly SKEMS to be all that the city has a right to grant. The first section gives either the north OR the south side and therefore BOTH SIDES UNTIL ONE is chosen. The second section states that if the company exercise the privilege given under section first of selecting ONE side, then the opposite side may also be used in order "to form a loop." Now comes another part of the second section, and It Is harder to understand than anything which William II. Evarts ever wrote. It reads as follows: "Or if the privilege be first exercised on the north side of tho park of extend? ing from tho point near the Old Home? stead to the keeper's bouse, as shown on the blue prints above mentioned, and also to extend its tracks and ope? rate its enrs by electricity by moans of a bridge or trestle across Tanner's Creek, from a point near the keeper's house, and to the south thereof. So far as the Councils have a. right to grant said rights, such additional privileges granted by this section to be exercised at such times as the Norfolk Street Railroad may deem proper to do so." The proposed ordinance, .as printed above, I cut from the Public Ledger of the 15th ultimo, and Assume that it Is correctly printed. The lengthy com? pound last quoted may be exactly what was Intended; but taken in connection with the first section, It will bear a marvelous variety of construction. It commences with the words: "Or if the privilege be first exercised," etc. This would seem to refer to the privilege granted In the first section; but that section says nothing about extending tracks FROM the point near the Ola Homestead, but it does speak of GO? ING TO a point near the Old Home? stead. The blending of the "additional privileges" granted by the second section with those granted in the first section and the linking of one to the other Is so artistically done that It Is difficult to see where the first ends and the second commences. Now. I do not mean to charge that the proposed ordi? nance is Intended to smuggle in privL leges -which do not appear on the face, but I do say that It may be possible under It to accomplish an injustice to j the people of this city, and In my opin? ion It should not be granted. The rail? road company, or other parties, could purchase lands to the north or south of the park, and could lay them out In lots, open streets and light up that whole section by supidylng electricity for the "twenty-five arc lights" which this ordlnnnce permits to be construct? ed AT THE EXPENSE OF THE PEO? PLE OF THIS CITY, who would .have no share in the profits to grow out of such a possible speculation. If the rail? road company wishes to extend Its tracks so as to reach sections to the north or south of the park and touch the EDGE of THE PARK a.t certain points, the city will probably offer no objection if the already tax-burdened city Is not asked to furnish "poles, lamps and wires," which means, (If no more), to construct the entire machin? ery for lighting we know not where or whnt. When we want lamps IN THE PARK PROPER we can. put them there without being COMPELLED to do It under a grant to the railroad company. CAUTION. ? BBAMBLETQN.
