HAS A BUSY LIFE.
Some of the Hard Work a Trainmas-
ter Has to Contend With.

It has been said that vvoman's work
is never done. But this aphorism came
in vogue before there were such things
as trafnmaSters. Occasionally a woman
gets a Sunday afternoon off or the
hours allotted to humanity to sleep But
with a trainmaster it is different Like
the babbIng brook his work goes on
forever.
H. A. Tice, trainmaster OF the east
ern division of the Santa Fe located n
Topeka is an example in point His du-
ties are so numerous and manifold that
for the last eleven years he has been
absolutely unable to spend a Sunday
afternoon at home with his family. Not
a single one. And as for sleepiug-that
has been reduced to such science that
the little cat maps Mr.. Tice may secure
flying across country at 40 miles an
hour tilted back in a chair car or per
chance occupying some conductors
bunk in cabOose for a few fleeing
hours proves sufficient rest for DAYS al
a time.
The bane of a trainmaster's existence
is extra trains. A circus may have a
contract with the road to be trans
ported from one point to another per
maps across some branch road to a
point on the main line Close connec-
fiict with the time of regular trains NAV
arise. This means the personal SUPER
vision OF the trainmaster and a night
or two out on the road.

pondence piled up that means immedi-
ate attention and perhaps days of work
ahead for the untiring official The past
week Mr.. Tice had a circumstance SINH
lar to this. 1t was the Robinson show
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1898-10-17

from Lyndon across to Emporia and
west to Florence. This in connection
with other matters caused Mr.. Tice to
practically lose two nights of sleep yet
on his return to his desk he found two
letters. either of which would give him
several days of hard work to secure the
needed facts for their answer besides
examining several candidates for pro-
motion from firemen to engineers and
brakemen to conductors and the thous-
and and one little things that come in
the regular order Of business. On top
of this comes the making up of the
time card which will require at least
four days of this week, in which he will
have his part to do.
And yet this is all disposed of and the
business of a great railroad system
moves along smoothly. The mention of
the numerous duties connected with the
one office is not in a complaining spirit
or with feeling that the labors are too
much for one man, for the mind that
unwinds the tangled webs and wOofs
takes pleasure in so doing and is not
afraid of work
But to the travelling public who step
into a luxurious coach and are whirled
away to their destination in comfort
and safety, the amount of work indulg-
ed in TO bring about these conditions is
not often Speculated in.
