$50. 90. Mr.. Lester says there has
been much sickness in Alaska this
year mostly of scurvy meningitis and
typhoid fever and many have died of
starvation-Or, because they did not
have the proper food and were not
able to buy it. He was paid $50. 90
an hour when working on the railroad
and his board cost 81 90 day. He
did not become infatuated with the
gold-seeking craze but says that If he
had been a single man he would have

has evidently been enjoying the best of
health.

Mould Not Allow the Engines to be
Abused.

A railroad man yesterday related q
very am using incident in the life of
the celebrated jim Mulhollaud, who
Is new dead, but was at one time mas
ter mechanic of a division of q road
leading into Reading, Pa. Jim, as he
was Familiarity known, could not stand
the strain of seeing any engine abused,
and he watched the engineers under
his Charge very closely. One day
while passing through the yards his
attention was attracted by a struggling
engine. While the engine
was kicking some cars into siding
In for ward motion the engineer re-
ceived signal to stop. He reversed
the lever and applied the steam. This
caused Il ''chug" and a resisting grind
ing that augered Jim 10 a fever heat
and running TO the engine he called
out: "Hey, thsre, yez. Hey thare."

following: "Git off that engine,

Woo something piece OF paper hur-
riedly aud hanoed IL to the discharged
engiueer A few days after the engi-
neer called at the office of the master

but IL was no use. Jim swore he would
have nOtnlng more TO 90 Win sucu d
heartless man. The engineer con-
cluded that he would go down
the road few divisions and
seek employment. He boarded q
passenger train and when the conduc-
tor called on him for his fare he pro-
duced the piece of paper given him
by jim. The conductor could read
Jim s Signature and that was all. He
bit his lips nervously and then, nod
ding his head. he passed the paper back
to the engineer. On the next division
the same paper was handed to the con-
ductor with To- same result. He could
read Jim's signature and that was all.
and was afraid TO dishonor 1t. After
spending some time looking for work in
that part of the country and not
being able to find 1t,
the engineer returned to
Reading on the same paper. Upon ar
irving there he again called upon Jim
and asked him if he could not return to
work. Jim weakened and the engineer
was given another chance. After he
had been at work few days he called
upon Jim and producing the paper ask
ed him TO read it. Jim took the paper
from the engineers hand and alter
looking at it for some time, asked:
"Whin did yez git this?" "The.day you
took me of the engine" replied the
engineer. CAV coorse, av coorse. yez
