Barre evening telegram. (Barre, Vt.) 1898-19??, 1899-11-04

One Chicago girls hat made sensa-
ton in the womens lunchroom at the
Auditorium yesterday. She came in
from Michigan avenue and stopped for
a moment in the parlor. While there
she noticed young sparrow futter in
through the open window and wheel
once or twice around the room. She
felt it brush against her hat in it's
flight, but thought no more of it and
passed on into the lunchroom. She had
picked up the bill Of fare and was
reading it when she felt that some one
was watching her, and, glancng
around. she discovered that she was
focusing point for all the eyes in the
immediate vicinity.
OF course she blushed and colored up
and began to wonder at the cause Of
the peoples interest. Just then the
waiter, who had been lowering around,
noticed her confusion and, bending
down, whispered. "Pahdon me, miss,
but dahs live buhd on yo' hat"
And then instead Of going into hys-
terics she calmly said: THANK you.
Will you please shoe it off?'
And the waiter 'shooed" the sparrow
toward nearby window. while the
owner of the hat fixed it on straight
and proceeded to order her luncheon.

continue the struggle as long as he had
strength, and that he would remain at
the breach like a valiant soldier to set
an example of duty to God and the
fatherland. even should he stand alone.
He did not positively decline the invi-

he might be free to accept 1t.

A Marvellous Escape.

From the Los Angeles Times.
''One of the strangest accidents in NV
experience said boiler expert, occurred
a few years ago at small sawmill town
over in Texas. They had a narrow-gauee
road on which logs were hauled by a pony
locomotive. One day the two forward
wheels of the little machine jumped the
track, and the crew of seven men went out
to jack 1t into place. AS the engine stood
it had a cant forward, which threw all the
water in the boiler to the front end, and,
as there was a lively fire in the box, it soon
got to the other end red hot. This trifiing
circumstance was overlooked by the crew,
who proceeded calmly with the lacking,
six of them working at the sides and one
lying fiat on his stomach under the rear
trucks.
LAS the engine slowly assumed a hori-
zontal position the water ran back to the
red-hot portion, and bang! the whole thing
disappeared in space. The six men also
disappeared. They were distributed in
small sections over at least ten acres, and
there wasn't enough left of either engine
or crew tc make a respectable souvenir
While this disintergration was in progress
the man who had been lying fat on his
stomach was experiencing the surprise of
his life. He had heard a hideous clap of
thunder, and when he looked up 10 and
behold! he was all by his lonely. His
comrades and the pony locomotive, which
was but just then standing over his back,
had vanished like a dream. All that was
left was the landscape. He was wholly

When Gen. Scott sojourned here, in thu
latter part of 1860 he lived a private
gentleman, trarsacting mis- business as the
commanding general of the army at the
office. on nth street directly opposite the
War Department, but the "troublous

ing was deserted except the presidents Of
fees. 1t was occupied by the president and
the clerks who work under his personal d.
rection. All were as busy bees. In
spite of their generally longer hours and
their infrequent half holidays as compared
with the other clerks. all Great Northern
employees court places close to the presf-
dent. When he takes a young man into
his office 1t means that he has some faith
in that young man, and If the faith is JUS
titled by his works. promotion is as sure
as the sunrise after the night.
Some years ago a rather diffident. serious
faced young ST. Paul lad, named Frank e.
Ward went to work for Hill as his per-
sonal stenographer Times had never been
easy with the boy, and this led him to ap-
proach his duties with terrible earnestness.
From the first Hill was interested
He noticed in particular that the boy al
ways had book handy, which he pored
over whenever there was minutes res
pite. One day the president picked up the
book. 1t was not a work of fiction. but an
algebra and no objection was made to Its
continued study. 1t is Hills custom when
ever travelling over hi. road TO SIT at the
rear of the train and make hylng lnspec-
ton of the tracks and the right OF way
Till Frank E. Wards time Hill had al
ways insisted that whoever was with MN
on trip of inspection should also Watcn
the tracks, but he made an exception IN
the case of the young stenographer lie
was allowed and encouraged to study when
making trips. All the same. the BOY Kept
a pretty close watch on everything per-
tanning to the road and its operation, as
Hill found out from time to time by talks
with him.
Earned His Promotion.
One day the stenographer was promoted
to be presidents assistant. Later, When
Hill saw that the lad, now grown to be
man, was competent to work alone, he was
promoted again, and he now writes gen
eraI superintendent after his signature.
The story that Great Northern clerks have
taken up the study of algebra extensively
since Wards promotion is probably not
true but it is certain that his rise has been
an excellent object lesson all along the line.
Mr. Hills beautiful residence, his gal
lery of paintings, his 4,000-acre farm,
where he carries on all sorts of agricultural
operations suitable to the northwest, and
where noteworthy herd of buffalo is kept,
have often been described. He has given
careful thought to all these things as well
as to the construction and operation of his
roads and the development of the north
west but to nothing has ne devoted more
care than the educat!o and training of mis-
sons. One of them, w. l.. (known familiar
ly to every one in ST. Paul as Louis, is now
assistant to his father. The other, James
N, is vice president of the Eastern railway
OF Minnesota. Samuel Hil a son-in-law,
is president of one of the Great Northern
branches.
