Responsibility That Rests on a New
York Tower Director,
Standing on any of the bridges
that cross the New York Central
yard, says Everybody's Magazine,
it is difficult to realize that each
apparently wandering drill-en-
CINE, each car standing empty and
idle, has some good reason for
being there; that it's location is
known to the tower director as
well as he knows where his ears
are, and that he also knows Just
where those drill and passenger
engines will be Is minutes later
and why. AT his desk, in the
north end of the tower, the train
dispatcher first receives word of
an incoming train. When it ar
rives at Ninety-sixth street, he
receives another message to that
effect, and when the train gets to
Seventy-second street a buzzer
rings in the tower, at which the
tower director proceeds forthwith
to clear the way with a Whirlwind
of orders. In the Mott-HaYen
message to the train-dispatcher,
he is advised as to the class Of the
train approaching, the time and
the number Of cars. This informa-
ton is passed on to the director
and he prepares himself accord
ingly. But the fact that perhaps
a dozen trains have passed Mott
Haven before the first train has
reached Seventy-seeond street
bears eloquent testimony to his
memory.

On my r~eassuring him, without,

as we spoke of the writer as a

prOnOuncing her "the reverse of
extravaganza, decidedly artistic,
inclined, though, to spend large
sums Of money within her circle"
Again he repeated: Every artis-

top Of the tree; with the force be-
gotten of destructiveness where
ambition is concerned the reverse
of scrupulOus." AS he continued
it may have dawned upon him

Queer Provision ii ceHtrnst aof Buflds

Queer Provision 81 coatgnet Cor BuilGs
ing 81 indiana church
The novel provision ia the con-
tract for the erection of q new
Methodist church at Logansport
to the effect that no man EN-
ployed upon any part Of the COM
struchOn shall either swear or
drink while oemplOyed is causing
no end Of Inconvenience to John
Barnes, the contractor. His first
trouble, says the New York Sun,
resulted from disinclination on
the part of men, even though they
we're not addicted to swearing or
drinking, to bind themselves alb.
solutely to refrain from the exer.
else Of these privileges should a
seeming necessity for them arise.
The church people wanted a
provision in the contract to the eff
feet that the mechanics should
neither chew nor smoke, but no
contractor would bid on the work
under such conditions, and chew
ing and smoking are not pro
hibited.
The day before he began work
Mr.. Barnes called his men
around him and told them the con
ditions under which the contract
had been secured. Some of the
men, who had worked for him for
years, shook their heads ominous-
ly and confessed that they did not
know whether they could stay on
the job if they were not permitted
to swear. One of them asked that
a Swearing line" be drawn with,
in which oaths must not be ut
tered and the workmen be re.
quired to go outside of this if
they wished to use the prohibited
words. The contractor thought
this might be construed into an
evasion Of the contract, and in.
sisted that the men pledge to alb.
stain absolutely from profanity
while working on the job.
The stOnemasOns who were en-
ployed to lay the foundations pos
itiyely refused to be bound BY
such conditions, and it was ar
ranged to get out the stone at the
yards of the company. All the
cutting will be done some dis.
lance from the "consecrated
ground" as the men have come to
call the site of the new church.
The same artifce was employed
by some Of the men who are get.
ting out some of the heaviCq tim.
bers for the new structure, that
work being done ten squares from
the site and the timbers being
ready for putting in place when
they are delivered at the church.
The contract not only requires
IhaL the WoFkmen shall refrain
from swearing and drinking, but
MI. Barnes agrees to discharge
any man who is guilty of either
offense while employed on the
structure. So far he has had only
one case to deal with. A young
carpenter struck his finger with
the pole Of his Ratchet, and before
he thought he uttered the fatal
"cuss word" The foreman re.
ported the act and tried to excuse
the offender, but MI. Barnes said
+, he had made the contract.in good
faith, all the men had agreed ia
its terms, and he could not make
any exception to the rule. The
carpenter took his discharge
gracefully, but said it was such a
relief to swear when he struck his
finger that he did not regret it
? even though it deprived him Of
work.
