WHERE DRUMMERs ARE KINGS
Great Northern Issues Special Instruc-
tions for Them.

Jim Hills passenger traffic mana
ger instructs conductors to treat trav-
cling men with the utmost courtesy
They're a good thing" and this is
the way Dan Dean IN the Seattle
Times figures out how II will work:
my dear sir, will you kindly, at
your own convenience, allow me the
honor of glancing at your transporta-
tion. l shall consider this a personal
favor, and assure you that it will be
appreciated not only by myself, but
by Mr.. Hill and his associates. as we'll
as by Mr.. Whitney and Mr.. Stone.
"Ah, my dear sir 1 thank you
from the bottom of my heart! If, at
any time, we can be of service, call
on u.s. Again 1 thank you,"
In the future Great Northern con-
ductors will adopt the above manner
in addressing travelling men.
F. 1. Whitney, passenger traffic
manager of the Great Northern. has
issued instructions to conductors to
be especially polite TO commercial
travellers. In his letter, copy OF
which has been received in Seattle.
Mr.. Whitney states that the knights of
the grip are a source of much revenue
to both the passenger and freight de-
partments. and should receive more
than ordinary courtesy.
Hereafter, according to a Seattle
employe, a brakeman, when accost-
ing drummer, will do so something
like this:
"a thousand pardons, sir. If you
Will allow the interruption, might
presume to remark that the next STOP
will be Seattle. Believe me, sir, 1 am
deeply panied to so transgress upon
your time, and with best wishes,
faithfully subscribe myself, your hum

Whereupon the colored porter will
arrive on the scene and unburden
himself thusly: l.H
'Cuse me, sab, Cuse mel Low

mo, no, sab! 1 cannot accept dat

privilege to wait upon you sah!"
After which the train butcher may
stroll by, vending his wares. Note the
honest youths line of talk:
Yes, sir; l have cigars for which

cne moment would l consider allow

that, as matter of fact, they are
genuine stinkadoros, and cost us a
cent each. However, 1 have some of
my own private stock, a half dozen of
which allow me to present to you with
my compliments"
Then above the whirr of the wheels
and the chug-chugging of the engine
ahead, will vibrate through the car
the shrill voice Of the "brakie" as he
yells:
"S-e-a-t-t-l-e! All out for Seat

The travelling man will yawn and
stretch, rub his eyes sleepily and ex-
calm:

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY
STILL EXPERIME Entail
Navy Finds That Weather Condition.
Have Marked Effect on Receiving
and Transmitting.

Interesting and valuable experiments
with wireless telegraphy were made by
the navy during the maneuvers recent
~ concluded in the Caribbean.
Different systems were tried under
varying conditions. 1t was found that
the influence Of weather both on send
ing and receiving, was very marked
The energy sent out by a transmit
ting station was diminished by hot,
sultry weather and bright sunshine
twice the usual energy being required
or such days. Transmission was found
to be easier by night than by day, and
most difficult between the hours of 10
a. m. and 4 D. m.
In the test of the wireless chain, car
ried out on March 1. speed Of 25e miles
per hour for message of twenty-five
words was obtained at relaying inter-
walls of forty miles, and over 400 miles
for ten-word messages at the same in
tervals.
The experiments tend to confirm navy
officials in the opinion that wireless
telegraph Is still in an experimental
stage. and to disprove the claim that
any one system has been entirely per-
fected.

tanned only slight decoration of the
scalp. He was taken to the Episcopal
