Trials of a Ticket Agent.
Cincinnati Enquirer.

More ticket agents would be found in
heaven but for certain class of visitors
who come in and lead them into ways of
profanity by their senseless and time
consuming questions. Instances like
the following are common:
as this the Cincinnati Southern Of
fice?"
"Yes, sir"
"Your sign SAYS Cincinnati, New Or
leans, Texas and Pacific"
"That's the same thing"
"Then why do some ofyour advertise
ments say Queen and Crescent routes"
Because the queen of England's royal
subjects have a twenty-years' lease on
it."
whats the fare to CHATTANOOGA"
"Ten dollars"
"Both ways?"
"No-one way"
allow much for the round trip?"
Seventeen fifty"
when does the next train go?"
Eight ten"

"Half-past Jour-"
"Slew, amt you? My watch SAYS four"

"What is?"
"Ours."

"No, sir"
"What didyou say the fare was to Chat

Suppose was to take two tickets?"

and drumming on the counter with one
hand. whats the fare from Ocala to
Leesburg?"
The tired agent wades through the
railroad guide, and after infinite search
finds the towns named to be on an OBJ
scure Florida road, and figuring on the
distance at three cents a mile, replies
about ninety cents"
"How long would it take to get there
if leave to-night?
Using couple of pencils and a ream
or so of paper, after hunting up all the
railroads and their connections, together
with the stage lines and boat transfers,
the agent says: Friday night at IL
O'Clock"
"What would it cost altogether from
here to Leesburg, sleeping-car and meals
together"
More figuring, and another estimate is
made.
That's a good deal, amt it? Where's
the opposition ticket Officer"
The agent removes revolver from
his hip-pocket to a shelf under the coun-
ter. The weapon is a self-cocker, with
stop and flyback trigger, timed to a six
teenth of second.
"Were you going to start tonight"
says the agent.
swell, no. Twas thinking that if bust
ness keeps up through the summer 7
might 90 in the fall to see some of my

The man leaves, and the agent, lock-
ing up the door, goes out the back way
to dispenser of liquids. Agents get
bald soon and die early.
