RAILROAD JOKES.
Tricks Played Upon Each Other by
Employ ees.

Railroad employees delight in playing
tricks upon each other and on green hands
and sometimes they carry their jokes to
unpleasantand even dangerous lengths.
On certain railroad in this state brake
man on passenger train was lounging
around the terminal depot one day wait
ing for his train to pull out when he was
approached by young man who desired
information regarding the person to whom
he should apply for place as brakeman.
+ ''Well, I'm the man that hires them, \
said the brakeman, waking at the by
ISLANDERS, 'and Pm wanting a man, too
but you're green at the business, amt
your
The applicant admitted that he was, but
reminded his questioner that determina-
ton and perseverance were ALMOST equal to
experience.
That's So" said the delighted brake
man meditatiyely, II believe I'll give you
a trial. Go up stairs to the first room on
the right and ask for Charlie Hepburn.
Tell him you are going out on No. 8 and
that you want watch and time-card..
The man unhesitatingly obeyed, and
walking into the office said familiarly:
~ want to see Charley Hepburn"
A slight hutter ran around the office and
the general superintendent, turning around
in his chair, said:
"Well, / am he. What do you want2'
"a watch and time cdrd,' said the
young man, nonchalantly. "I'm going
"Who said so?" asked the astonished
superintendent.
1.-THE man that hired me" replied the
other.
"Well, you just come down stairs with
me and see If you can find him. If you
can I'll give him a run that he'll like, 2
said the enraged great Mogul.
But the brakeman's train had pulled out
and the superintendent never found out
who he was.
Another similar case occurred where the
perpetrator OF the joke did not escape so
luckily. A would-be fireman was hired by
a man whom he supposed to be the fore
man! but who was in reality fireman on
a freight train. The fireman explained all
the duties of the position to the green
hand, and actually sent him out on his
own run. The alleged fireman made the
trip without anybody discovering the
fraud, as the engineer supposed the regu-
lar fireman was laying off. When the new
fireman was cleaning up his engine in the
roundhouse on his return the foreman
came along.
What are you doing up there" he
asked.
Cleaning my engine, -" was the reply.
Who are your"
The fireman on this engine replied
the other.
'Humph! Could you tell the men who
hired you if you saw him?"3 asked the
| foreman.
Certainly; there he comes now, said
the fireman as the hoaxer leisurely saun-
| tered in the door,
The foreman discharged the funny fire
man on the spot and hired his victim to
fill the vacancy, and today he is the head

SENATOR JOHN B. ALLEN in two column

favored combination to help elect Sena.
tor Squire at the last two elections for
United States senator. Ex.Gov. Miles 6.
Moore and Ex-Delegate Tom Brents, both
neighbors Of the senator, and others, will
evidently think that this denial comes too
late. Senator Allen says it is now high
time for chickering's and backbitings to
cease and there should be no faction in the
party. The Walla Walla Statesman can
bring this about in great measure by 60
ing on the bench.

The Farmers Alliance made such a
feeble showing at the late election in Ohio,
Iowa and Kansas that it induces the Globe
Democrat to publish the following obitu-
ary notice;
Died-On November 8, 1891, of inanition,
the Farmers Alliance, aged s years and s
months. Interment in potter's field. No
flowers.
The official returns for 100 counties of
Kansas show that the republicans carried
the state ticket in 50 counties, the alliance
in one and the democrats in five. That
looks very much like the new party has
gone fishing.'

BOTCH WORK.

The city council at its meeting tonight
ought to do something toward fixing up
the odds and ends of botch work all over
the city and put the highways and side
walks in decent condition for the winter
season. The sidewalk leading to the depot
which has been in dilapitated condition
for nearly two weeks still remains in that
condition, an eyesore to strangers passing
through as we'll as to the residents Main
street between 18th and 9Th, which the
council ordered to be planked, has not been
touched and is in filthy condition. The
cutters of Main street in many places are
obstructed nearly its whole length south Of
Seventh street by electric light poles which
were taken down some months ago and al
lowed to remain there. The sidewalk and
street on the east side of Main street be-
tween Thirteenth and Fourteenth street is
fast disappearing into an adjoining lot
which is far below the grade, while on the
west side of the same street is a nlantrap
which will cost the city some money
one Of these days for damages.
These frayed edges of street work here
and there have been apparent to the citi-
zen as well as to the stranger for a long
time. 1t does not appear that anything
commenced in this city, in the way of
street improvement, is ever finished. There
is always something lacking, and botch
look about it. Why cannot the work be
done in substantial manner and com
pleteIy finished as it is done in other cities.
A good deal Of the labor expended, both
by contractors and the street commissioner
will have to be done over again. The city
council will probably regard this as an
other kick" Of the TRIBUNE, but we are
only echoing the common talk Of the peo-
pie of Olympia.

Knocked Him Silly.

ID. A. Harrison, on Third street,
heard a noise at the back of his house
about 10 o'clock last night like some
one trying to get in. He went out
and found a man standing in the
back yard, and asked him what he
was doing there. The visitor made
no reply, but put his hand to his hip
pocket, when Gus. pulled brick
and knocked the fellow from under
his hat. The sneak bounced like a
rubber ball and lit ON the other side
of the fence. Mr.. Harrison got the
fellows hat and put it in the hands
of Chief Stafford, who is on trail of
the rascal. Mr.. Harrison thinks he
was Il white man. People should be
on a close look out. There is most
likely a clan in town.
