Increased Pay for Trainmen.

1t is reliably reported that the Bur-
lington Route has decided to give it's
conductors and brakemen an increase
in salary within the near future. Other
western roads have granted salary in
creases to their men, and the Burling-
ton will do likewise. According to the
new schedule passenger conductors and
brakemen are to receive an increase of
II per cent and freight conductors and
brakemen are to receive Is per cent.
The local railroad men have been await
ing with some interest and anxiety the
result of the Burlington's deliberation
on the matter and they are pleased to
learn that the company has decided to
give the increase asked. A ten per
cent increase for deserving station

OVER FORTY YEARS.
VIM. T. Turpin Has Been in Govern
ment Service.

Nearly every resident in the District
knows William T. Turpin by sight II .hey
do not know him by name. but few know
of his quite remarkable record In the serv-
ice Of the government. though they come in
more or less daily contact with him.
For forty-two years Mr. Turpin has been
connected with the Washington city post
Office in one capacity or another. and for
the past twenty-five years he has stood
continuously at the retail stamp windows
meeting millions of persons and selling
millions Of postage stamps.
During this long span OF years he has
not lost q single day by sickness. nor has
he been absent from his post by other
causes except for few days. When
Il is recalled that the stamp windows
In the city post office are opposite the main
outer doors Of the Post Office Department
building. and that there Is draught enough
at this point. during a good wind. to throw
pedestrians to the ground and sprafn their
ankles the marvel of 1t Is that he has lived
to establish his remarkable record Of uu-
broken appearance at the little window
where he makes a cursory acQuafntant
with thousands Of persons every week.
