Conductor Shaffer of No. 5 let him
self down from the rear end of his
train as it came to a standstill. He
cast an inspecting glance along the
line of cars and at first hardly noticed
the white-haired mar who came creep
1ng out from under the car near which
ne has standing. 1t was evident that
the stranger had been stealing a ride,
and he was dirty and begrimed; but
In spite of the unattractfve appearance
OF he man there was something I'M
usual in his appearance that would
cause anyone to look at him a second
time. The skin had the pink tint and
smoothness of youth, yet the hair
above the face was as white as winter
snow. The men looked at each other
q moment and then the stranger
turned quickly as if about to move
away. Said Conductor Shaffer:
Joe Jordon, by thunder!"
Hoped you wouldn't know me,
Shaft"
I'D know you In the kingdom come,
Joe. But, Lord, how you have
changed"
Joe appeared a bit uneasy and moved
from n foot to the other restlessly.
What you doing under that train?"
Riding the rods"
From where?"
"Other end of the division"
Where were you going?"

We began nosing around the cars. The
young fellow found a car door u~nseaIed

found ourselves in a car loaded with
bananas. 1t was pleasant enough and
we found straw on top of the crates

where my hair began to turn white.
