sUBURBAy CONDUCTORS As DETECTIVES.
THEY ARE OBLIGED TO WATCH FOR STRAY
TICKET BOOKS AND THE wII.Es OF
THE coMMUTER

The conductor on the sixty mile Jersey suburban
train had just taken commuters ticket away
from a well dressed passenger and made him pay
fare.
You riding a ticket which you found. and
the regulations demand that the book be taken
up II il is found in the possession OF any but its
owner" was the explanation given.
The curious passenger across the conductor
just before the run was ended and asked: do you
have many cases like that2"
Several a month" was the reply. 1T is one of
the worst features OF this job but it's part OF the
process OF earning ones salary. Our commuters
are most careless. and soon as they lose their
ticket book the matter is reported at headquarters
We get instructions 10 watch for the number OF the
stolen book I've been looking for the one I Just
caught for nearly a month.
1t wouldn't be so bad II we just had look out
FOR books which had been lost " he continued, but
the road insists on our catching the who do
a little specuatng by hiring out their books Ii
seems 10 be ruling passion with almost every one
10 cheat corporations at any and all times Men
who would violate a principle OF business will
90 against their signed promises and rent their
books in case they are not able TO ride them IN
the time limit OF course can't catch half Of
the people who ride the books OF others but IL
makes detectives out Of an the time in order
10 keep the practice in check"

been working with little different type of boat
but principally, think. because the challenger
comes from greater distance and because a good
many of our shipping men here have friends inter-
ested in yachting on the other side. The interest
is almost sure to result in two three more or
ders; but there has been general boom in yacht
ing here this year. and doubt If we will be able
to build more than two additional boats at the out
side OF course. those raced last year are still
eligible, and for my part, l do not why they
have not as good chances the new Ones partic-
ularly as they are tuned up and in good shape.
Last year 1t was very difficult matter to choose
between the four, each winning in her particular
weather, and II was only at the last moment that

Now that the HsnIey centreboarder seems like
ly to remain solely on paper. yachtsmen have been
pleased 10 that characteristics OF the
Cartoon type have found their way into the Crown
inshied design for Mr.. Lawson. There have been
evidences that some OF the same pecullarities
would also go into the new Herreshoff design, but
II has been generally expected that the Bristol
people would not go to anything extreme In this
way. but would produce their coming craft as a
somewhat modified Columbia. The latest informa-
ton from Boston has indicated that in the low
freeboard. shallow draught and blunt. rounded en-
trance the Crowninshied model has the brute In IT
