The new hatchery will collect all egg

for fishermen to sell to dealers Holsters

a wooden mitten, strip off the eggs, leaV-
ing them to die in their boats, and sell
the females as lawful Holsters. But the
new hatchery will send out a lleet Of
little launches to canvass lobster potters

are marketable. Thus will be collected

I am member of the Brotherhood of
Railway Trainmen," said George H. Mar
tin, as he sat in the Plankington house
yesterday, surrounded by a little group
Of attentive listeners, ''but am at the
present time connected with the inters ,aJe
commerce commission as an Inspector Of
safety appliances. l had many peculiar
experiences when I was in active service.
In the fall of 1887 1 was a young freight
conductor on the Valley road, running
out Of Cleveland, O. Like all young men
at that time, [ caught the Western fe-
yer. The Mecca for railroad men at that
time was Pocatelle, Idaho, and there I
went. 1 obtairSed employment on the
Oregon Short Line as a freight brakeman.
On my first trip out l went to the round
house after the engine, and as we
came out of the house black cat ran
across the track. The engineer was super
stitiouS, like lots of other railroad men,
and he Immediately climbed out of the
cab, went to the superintendent, and ask
ed to be excused from taking the trip.
I'VE We're delayed about an hour in Sc
curing another engineer to make the
trip. We got started at last, and I was
particularly alert, as it was my first
trip and l wished to make a good rec
ord. We were approaching what Is
known in that country as. Dead Mans
Oulcn, Wnen LOOKING anedd l saw man
standing on the track about 200 feet
ahead. l reached for the rope and rang
the bell on the engine for the purpose
of giving him warning, bit he did not
appear to hear it. l then called to the
engineer:
Bill, sound your whistle There's
man on the track who appears to be
either deaf or drunk
THE engineer footed his whistle, but
Still the man stuck to his post in tee
middle of the track. The engineer shut
off steam, but we did not come to a stop
until we had passed the spot where he
stood. The engineer turned to me and
said:
Didn't he get off on your side?
No. L replied. If he didn't get off
on your side he's under the train.
Then we started out to search for the
remains, the engineer with his torch and
1 with my lantern. We examined the en-
CINE and found no marks to indicate that
we had struck the man. We followed
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1901-06-09

along down the sides of the train, and
met the conductor and rear brakeman
coming forward to see what was the
matter. We told them we had struck a
man, and then the entire crew began the
search, bat found nothing.
1--WE finally concluded that he had been
knocked off the track into a swift-running
! mountain stream chat ran alongside. At
the next telegraph station north of that
point the conductor and engineer reported
to the superintendent that we had killed
a man in Dead Mans Gulch and could
not find the remains; that we believed
he had been knocked into the water and
carried away.
THE superintendent the next morning
issued Instructions to the search men to
patrol the stream and search for the
! body, and the search was kept up for five
or six days, but nothing ever came of it.
Finally the entire train crew was
called before the superintendent and in
terrogated, when it was discovered that
only the engineer and myself had sen
the man struck by the engine. Then the
search was dropped and the subject was
discussed by the railway employees as an
accident in their lives.
1.-TWO weeks later a prospector came
into Pocatelle and reported that he had
found a skeleton in the mountains near
the point where he had seen the man on
the track.
1T was then learned that when the
road was being built a grader employed
in Dead Mans Gulch had disappeared and
was supposed to have been murdered:
but as his body was never found, nothing
was done about it. The incident 1 have
related gave rise to the story that the
man whom we saw on the track was
the ghost of the murdered grader. What
do 1 think about it? 1t certainly was
very strange. I saw the man standing
on the track as plainly as I see you,
and l saw the engine pass over the spot
where he stood, but there were no marks
on the engine to show that it had struck
a body nor was there any jar to the
machinery such as one might expect I'M
