TIIE LIVER PAD.


which he rings up the fares as rapidly
as they are collected. The conductors
are gOod-naturcd and do not mind the
implied insult of carrying spy about
their persons; indeed, considering the
crankS and crOtchets of hundreds of
passengers, the conductors must have
temperS but little short of the angelic.
When the pad was first introduced it
was made the subject of much uuiZZing.
but the wearerS were so gOOd-natured
the sport was short lived.
The pad is all aid to honesty.
1t shows at a glance just how MANY
fares the On4uctor has collected. But
the company will not trust to the auto
matte machine alone. Two men, tech
nically known as Register inspectors"
but generally denOminated 'spotters.n
are employed. They board every train
and count the passengers, and if they
count more passengers than the liver
pads indicate, the natural inference is
that somebody is stealing. These regis
ter inspectors wear cap badges
and do their work openly, but there
are secret spoilers who travel
with greater or less frequency and are
both feared and hated by the conduc-
tors. Among these latter is said to be a
female, who is unusually bright and
keen. The conductors, honest as they
are, resent the implication conveyed
and this secret machinery.
Docs it do good?
The company undoubtedly thinks so
or it would discontinue the expense
But it is question whether this con-
slant espionage does not sharpen the
wits of the conductors. 1t is question

THANKS AWFUILY.
The Press Club Voices Emotions


of Deep Gratitude.
At the meeting of the Press club Fri
day evening the secretary was in
structed to see that the clubs gratitude
for the numerous favors received in
connection with the recent benefit was
suitably expressed. The following card
Of thanks will be supplemented by per-
sonal letters to each:
The Minneapolis Press club desires
thus publicly to express it's sincere graf
itude to these who helped to make its
fourth annual entertainment the superb
success which it was, by unanimous con-
sent. The fact that all the artists cheer
fully contributed their services made
the entertainment as much of
success financially as it was artist
ically. Mr.. Conklin's generosity
in refusing to charge cent
for the Grand opera house is another
source of gratitude. Thanks are due
and are hereby rendered to the follow
ing: j. F. Conkln, manager Grand
opera house President Cyrus Northrup;
George NJ. Ciprico; Sol Smith Russell;
the Carol club; DAM orchestra; the
Minneapolis Either club; the Mandolin

THE OLD BELL PUNCH.

passengers he was being watched. Nat
urally the conductors began to devise
ways and means to beat and defeat the

combination, and for certain
percentage would open and set back
the total indicator. dividing the differ
ence with the conductor. While moth
ing of this kind was ever heard of in
Minneapolis, the bell punch has long
since been discarded on the motor line.
1t did not meet the requirements, and
was finally superseded by the register,
which is now i'll use in all the street
cars.
But the register is not popular.
The rules requires tie street car con-
ductor or driver to ring up the register

A GREAT INVENTION.
A Speed of Ninety Miles Easily
Attained.

John Crime, Minneapolis machinist,
has invented radial valve gear which
takes the place of the link motion as
applied to locomotives, which, if it does
the work claimed for it, is going to
revOlutionize locomotive building.
By its use, it is claimed, an
economy of - per cent can be made.in
fuel, which would be an immense saw
ing in the handling of freight and pas
senger trains. 1t is claimed also that
by its use engines can easily attain
speed of ninety miles an hour with
a siX-foot driving wheel, and still
the limit of speed has not
been reached. A locomotive with the
new gear applied will be at the st.
Louis depot at Fourth avenue north at
3 p. IN. Monday, and at the Northern
Pacific yards Tuesday at p. M, and
tests of speed will be made for the bene-
fit of railroad men and others desiring
to be present.
