ARECORD TO BE PROUD OF.

Ingle Malone, the well known B. &
q supervisor. whose office is at Cam
eron holds a record for not losing
time that is hard for any railroad man
70 beat. He has been in the employ
of the above company for nearly thirty
two years, and during that time mas
lost but two pay days. During the
past twenty years he has just been
off duty one week on account OF SICK
ness and it is seldom that he is OIL
his own division Mr.. Malone is a
very faithful employee, and during his
career with the B. & 0. has had the
resnect of all the men under him as
well as the high officials. Like many
other railroad men, he commenced at
the bottom and at one time was
section man himself. His position
now is an important one, and there
are few men on the line that stand
anv better than he does He is boss
of about so men on his division, ana
when there is work to do he IS al
WAYS at the head of the men. A man
with a clear record like Mr.. Malone 5
is one to be proud Of, and 1t would
not surprise many people if he were
Given higher position in after years.

SECTION MEN REJOICE

Ball of the Railroad Trainmen-The
Klondike Travel--A Great Record
Miscellaneous Railroad News and
Personals.

Commencing this month, the section
men who work for the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad Company will be al
lowed to make better time and an in
crease in pay also. The men during
the winter months were only allowed
to make eighteen days each. and nine
hours at that. Their pay was $1.O5,
but hereafter they viii work the full
time and will receive S1.15 for ten
that the employees are pleased with
the move, for they get little enough
money as it is. The Baltimore & Ohio
company, however, like other roads,
curtail expenses as much as possible
during the winter in every department.
On the Fourth division the road de-
partment is in charge Of two supervls-
crs and each man has had about sixty
men employed, but now the force will
be increased to rs or So On the Pitts
burg division. the company allowed
81 900 more for repairs each month,
and as a result the men made few
more days. At this time of the year
there is more work to do all along
the line aud more money is set aside
for the needed improvements. In this
vicinity the roads have suffered con-
siderably by the food, and it will take
some time to get the tracks back IN
their former condition. Taking every
thino into consideration the various
railroads will likely do a much better
business this year and the list OF en-
ployes will no doubt be able to make
good time and in some cases more
men will be hired

passengers for the Klondike gold
fields. Yesterday train No from the

set they were. In the party were seven
people who came all the way from
