Thanked the Conductor.

The life of a railroad man Is not always
a happy one. The majority of travellers who
see the conductor pass through the train
think he has nothing TO do but to take up
the tickets and punch little holes in them,
and foundly imagines that he has a snap
that does not fall to the lot of ordinary
mortals. To those who knew them best,
however, this is not the case. Throughout
the railroad service, no mater what happens
the railroad mar is at the service of the
public, and no matter at the cost of how
much personal discomfort he must care for
those who have been placed in his care.
When these services are shown to be appre-
ciated no one relishes better than the rail-
road man the mme ttiOn Of well done.
During the late snow blockades the passen-
gers on the blockaded trains were unavoid-
ably compelled to submit to many dis
comforts, but the following resolutions show
that they appreciate the efforts of the train
men to make them as light as possible.
General Passenger Agent Lomax received
the following from Hillsdale yesterday:
Allow us, passengers on the westbound
flyer, detained here by the blizzard for over
thirty hours, to express our appreciation of
the services of j. G. Anderson, conductor,
and the other trainmen and servants In pro-
viding for our relief and comfort. We be-
lieve they have done all they could for us
and we desire to commend them accordingly.

Union Pacific Alleged to Bc Unwilling to
Restore armon
CHICAGO, March 2i.-(Special Telegram
TO The Bee)-Absolutely no progress was
made today In untangling the chaotic condi-
ton Of western passenger rates. The pres
ent contention Is solely between the Atchi-
son and the Union Pacific. the Northwestern
being interested as the Chicago end OF the
~Chicago-Union Pacific and Northwestern
route. II is doubtful IL there can be any ad-
vance In rates, at least between Chicago and
the Missouri, until the controversy Is
settled.
The original fight between the Atchison
and Southern Pacific has been lost to sight.
As far as these two companies are con-
cerned there is perfect willingness to ad-
vance rates between the Missouri and Cali
fornia points. The objection to an advance
comes from the Union Pacific, which natur-
ally is fighting the battle for the North
western in its desire for an advance In the
rate to the Missouri. Like all railroad CON
tracts Of the kind, the one between the
and Union Pacific provides
that the origination line shall dictate the
rates. This gives the Northwestern control
Of westbound business and the Union Pacific
a like control over eastbound business. The
Atchison does not believe 1t can protect its
interest unless 1t completes with each line
In its territory. This clash is the cause Of
present impossibility of making any adj
vanCes in rates.

A Texans March from Poverty to Stimu-

Hon. Abe Hewitt,s after-dinner reflections
on southern craftsmanship caused Private
John Allen of Mississippi to emit a few re-
marks on banquet speeches in general, as
follows:
But do not think any man ought to be
held down to a very rigid account for an
after-dinner speech at a banquet Why, sir,
/ r~ecollect not long ago l went to a banquet
in Baltimore. where everything was so good,
where l was surrounded by so many big,
rich men that by the time my turn came
to speak | felt so well that l addressed them
as "fellow-capitalists." Uaughter) Being
aware of the influences surrounding q
banquet, IL l did not know of the abstemious
habits of my friend from Tennessee / would
have thought, on reading this speech, that
he had gotten somewhat under the influences
that affected another Tennesseean that a
travelling man told me about meeting once
in Tennessee. This travelling man was sit
ting on a counter talking to a merchant
about selling him some goods; he and the
merchant got into a general conversation,
and among other things he said to the
merchant, II used to sell goods in Kaufman
county, Texas"
At this a seedy, ragged, hard-looking fell
low who was sitting on the counter said,
my friend, did you say you had lived in
Kaufman county, TeXas?" Eyes, sir"
Did you ever know a man out there by the
name of John Il. Williams?" 'Oh, yes. |
used to sell John goods" We'll, sir, he is
my brother" "Ah | am glad to meet you"
Eyes, sir, John Williams is my brother.
How was John when you saw him?' "0h,
John was doing very well, he had a good
farm with plenty of stock on 1t, he was out
Of debt and he was doing we'll" "Well,
my friend, II you should be back in Kauf-
man county at any time, and see anything
of John, | wish you would tell him that |
am mighty hard up, that my farm is mort
gagged. and l do not Ralteve | am ever going
TO be able to raise and educate my children
Times are mighty hard with me. and do
not see any chance t6i get out OF debt, and
II he is ever going tSshelp me, now is the
time" Nv
After awhile this travelling man felt like
taking a drink. AMI yuhe invited Johns
brother out to takeGa drink with him.
When the drink began, to have its effect.
JOIN out in Texas?"II.9Yes. well. when
you go out there, saylI am getting along
tolerably we'll that N amt making any
great money, but thatlI am doing pretty
we'll" They sauntered- around awhile, and
the travelling man asked his acquaintance to
take another drink. Then the fellow began
to warm up, He saia, 80 you know my
TFSsaS% ! !!Yss. out %awSea p If S soa are goi G0g@ o5t
there at any time, jHsf tell him that | am
making a good living and am getting along
first rate. Late in the evening my friend
met the fellow again! He had meanwhile
had two or three more drinks and was
pretty mellow. so he said. you are the
gentleman that knowed my brother John
out In Kaufman county?" Yes" Well
II you should go back to Kaufman and see
anything OF John, tell him II he needs any
thing, just to draw on me-" loud laugh

lone OF the curiosities to be found in
southern Ohio. not far from Chillicothe, is a
country store" said II. @. Workman to the
Globe Democrat "a country store is not
usually an object of special interest, but
this one has remained as It now is for over
thirty years without the change of a single
article. When the war broke out the man
who owned the store had a son, The father
was intensely loyal, and persuaded the son to
enlist, promising the son that II he should
enlist the store and its contents
should be his when he returned Another
call for troops came, and the old man locked
up the store and shouldered a musket. He
remained in the army until peace was de-
clared and then returned 10 his home. His
wife had died in the meantime. and no IL
dings had ever been received from the son.
The father worked a small farm that he
owned. but never entered the store. saying
that Il should be there as II was when the
son came home to claim Il. A quarter OF

A r COASTER.
Slides Down the Historic Lookout Mountain
at Lightning Speed.


A short, compactly built man, with a
heavy blond mustache took a toboggan slide
down Lookout mountain the other afternoon.
He went via the incline, and made the
trip from Point hotel to the engine house,
a distance of $500 feet, in three and one
half minutes, which Is Just one-third the
time that IL takes a car to descend re-
marks the Chattanooga Times, Fully 100
people saw him make the lightning like
descent, and all were greatly excited, The
nervy coaster, however. was as cool as the
proverblal cucumber, and, upon reaching the
foot of the mountain, walked away as coOlly
as though 1t had taken him an hour to de-
scend.
About 4 O'Clock the coaster appeared at
the Point hotel with what appeared to be a
block Of wood about eight inches square under
his arm. On one side of the block was a
steel horseshoe, in the curve OF which was a
small Hanged wheel. The other side Of the
block was slightly concaye. The block as
put on the outside rail of the incline, the
wheel fitting close, and the horns OF the
horseshoe were on. either side. Then the
man put a heavy glove on his right hand,
and sitting down on the block started down
the mountain without more ado, lie held
his feet crossed straight before him, ana
rested them on the iron rail. For a few
feet the little one-wheel car moved slowly.
and then the speed Increased until It and
its human freight were going down the
mountain at a rate that made the spectators
hold their breath. When a curve was
reached the coaster slowed up slightly by
pressing his heels against the rail and
steadied himself by touching the cable with
his gloyed hand. Finally, when he reached
the very heavy grade Just above the engine
house, he took on all the brakes and came
down like a shot out OF a gun. Arriving at
the bottom, he put on the heel brakes
and gently came to a stop Just In the depot.
Coolly rising from his queer vehicle he
placed II under his arm and walked quietly
away before any Of the astonished specta-
tors had any chance to recover their breath
or ask any questions.
