recorded the relative merit OF the various

also the different roadmasters' divisions.
AS a general thing the cmploye in charge
Of the section, depot, etc which receives
the highest score is awarded prize.
These inspection trips are made at stated
times and are occasions long looked tor-
ward 10 and prepared for. The officials
Of the Houston East and West Texas
railway. approaching the good results OF
friendly rivalry that these inspection
trims cause among employees, adopted
plan similar in effect, but varying from
the general plan in that instead of max
ting trips especially for this purpose, the
score was kept at different times during
the year when inspecting the road inc
employees we're thus scored on the general
condition OF the properly in their charge

GEO. ,NaLE's BROTHER KILLED.


A Chadron Railroad Man Meets Death In
Switch Yard.
Our esteemed townsman, Geo. lngle.
who is in the employ of the Elkhorn
company as brakeman between here
and Buffalo Gap, received the painful
news Sunday that his brother, Robert,
who was employed in the switch yards
at Chadron, had died at 3 O'Clock that
morning from the effects of injuries
received Saturday forenoon. He was
standing on the front steps of a switch
engine and fell off and was rolled q
short distance under the steps, injur-
ing him internally. At first it was
thought his injuries would not prove
fatal, but later developments proved
that he was seriously hurt. He leaves
a wife and two little children. Geo.
Ingle and wife went from here to Chad
ron Sunday night, and on Tuesday ev-
ening, in company with Conductor
Hitchcock and wife, accompanied the
remains to Grand Rapids, Mich, the
former home of deceased.
