SYSTEM
IS STILL BUILDING
Line Will be Extended TO McIn-

REACHING TOWARD ocALA

The Long Distance Service of the East
Florida Telephone Company Proving
a Big Convenience, and the Service
is Growing and Improving.
One Of the most convenient addi-
tions to this section in recent years is
the service afforded by the long dis
lance lines of the East Florida Tele-
phone Company.
This company at the beginning was
more OF an experiment than anything
else. Realizing, however. the need Of
telephone service between Gaines
vile and Arredondo, Palmer, Mica
nopy, Rocky Point and other places,
Manager Voyle thought the venture
would prove profitable, with the result
that he installed the system at con-
siderable expense.
The East Florida Telephone Conn
pany now has lines extending from
Gainesville to Archer and interme-
date points, to Fairbanks, and to Mic
aDopy and intermediate points There
are now about fifty telephones on the
line, which prove a great convenience
TO the merchants OF Gainesville and
the people of the country. The mat
ter OF a quick and convenient service
has been realized, and those who use
the phones would not do without
them for any reasonable consideration.
There are at present no instruments
at Wacahoota, Tacoma and Clyatt, but
those desiring phones in these Sec
tions may now get them.
The latest snbscribers to the system
are Crawford x Davis, who have just
installed phone.
The company began Monday to ex.
tend the line from Micanopy to Me-
Intosh and other points in that viein-
ity, aud within the next few days it
will DO possible for Gainesville people
TO talk with perfect ease to Mcintosh
1t is the ultimate intention OF the
company to extend the service TO Ce-
dar Key, Ocala, Waldo and Melrose,
which will afford a most excellent SER

* how does a railway keep
track of it's equipment?
How can it ever tell how many cars
it has with which to handle its bust
ness and where it can put its hands
upon them?
In many respects modern railway
resembles a ranchman with enormous
herds and dozens of cowboys con-
stantly watching to see that there are
no estrays.
The handling of cars is system.
atized. This is the simple explanation
of a seemingly difficult problem. Some
one at headquarters or division points
is camping on the trail of every wan
dering bit of rolling stock and ire
mendous system of records and tracers
makes it practically impossible for cars
to get lost.
Let us take the Northern Pacific for
an example. The handling of the
equipment is delegated to a separate
department, at the head of which is
Ira B. Richards, formerly of Tacoma,
and many years in the roads employ.
Mr. Richards has grown up with NOV
ing cars. He knows them like book.
Many of the distinctive features of the
work Of the Northern Pacific car SER
vice department have been worked out
nd 6irnRfinn
lines have been able to make such
department do more for the public
and the organization of So clerks re-
Quired to transact the business of the
department seems to be perfect. Each
desk has a number which appears on
each bit of correspondence originated
or handled by it and which enables
a rapid distribution of the thousands
of letters arriving daily.
The Northern Pacific railway has
$50 locomotives moving practically
day and night. 1t also has nearly 800
passenger cars which are handled by
means of system applying exclu-
sively to this class of equipment, the
details of which are looked after. by
Chief Clerk Ballion and his force. But
the important task is the handling of
its Bats freight cars and the 1900
to 5000 additional freight cars of for
eign lines constantly moving between
st. Paul and Portland.
Asked what service his department
performs for the public in locating
shipments moving over the Northern
Pacific Mr.. Richards said
I'VE undertake to furnish on request
complete information showing the To-
cation of any loaded car moving on
our rails. We tell the shipper when 1t
will reach its destination. We find
shippers consider such information
valuable to them and special tele-
graph record is maintained for that
purpose for all cars that move over
more than one division
"Given a car number we can -
stantly locate the car at any STATEN
If standing or in what train if moving
and the location of such train regard
less of the class of freight. Also we
furnish daily by wire information con-
corning certain loads to our general
agents at their respective headquarters
Consignees are advised of the location
and progress of their shipments"
This relates, however, merely to
moving cars. To know what and
where these cars are is a different
problem. Trains reaching destination
instantly lose their identity and the
40 to 60 cars move in as many different
directions.

j. w. Olson, in circular letter sent
out to the county and city superin-

the fact that April is the hundreth
anniversary of the birthday of Hans
Christian Anderson, and suggests that
his name be commemorated in some
way by the school childrer of the state.
The state superintendent says in his
letter:

err 1t is the centennial birthday of

of the children whose tales charm

The system of harSung cars moving

THE LOST CAR.

this particular car was doing stunt"
on a coal road in West Virginia and
the correspondent at Dallas was SO i'm
formed about week later. Another
communication was received from the
same party advising that 1.-The same
old car was still in the same old
place" This interested me and
again instituted proceedings to locate
the car. confirmed our previous rec
ord by wiring the line charged to and
received their acknowledgment of pos
session.
THE matter rested at this and had
entirely forgotten the circumstance
when, several months later | again
heard from my Dallas correspondent,
who again informed us that the same
old car was in the same old place"
This again stimulated my interest and
a thorough tracing developed the fact
that the car being reported to us by
foreign lines under that number was
a Union Pacific car and by reason of
similarity of the initials reports Were
coming to the IN. P" instead of the
~. P"
1--WE then found that our car had
been in possession of an electric road
near Dallas for about six months, but
under the very just per diem rules
we received 20 cents per day for this
period from the line responsible for
delivery to them.
I'VE receive 20 cents per day for
cars off the line and one dollar per
day for cars held longer than 20 days.
We pay foreign lines the same rate
for the use of their cars. This item
alone is of great magnitude. 1t proves
an incentive to keep cars moving,
however, and when the question of
money enters in other lines don't let
us go to sleep. Collections last year
for per diem and similar items
amounted to $4,000
Handling passenger cars and trains
is a somewhat different question. In
Mr.. Richards office there is an i'm
mense board which is apparently COW
cred with queer colored pegs. Each
peg represents a car. Color indicates
class and the serial arrangement of
the pegs train or number of trains.
Each passenger train moving over the
system, and there are ten North Coast
Limiteds' and the same number for
each of the other overland trains con-
stantly in motion, is shown on this
board. Every car is shown. If a car
is dropped en- route or picked up en-
route peg is dropped or added. A
glance gives a graphic picture of the
entire passenger train situation, the
location of each train and it's progress.
Supplemented by an elaborate system
of reports by telegraph the board
gives every minute detail of the days
passenger train movements. Little
boxes arranged to represent train
and containing pegs which represent
the cars in the train contain special
information in the form of report
slips.
Mr.. Richards asks: What equip
ment is in the Limited which left
Portland yesterday and where is the
train?" The operator instantly gives
the location of the engine, coach
equipment, sleeper equipment and any
fact which may throw light upon the
trains movements.
The days when maverick" cars ex-
listed have passed. Cars cost too much
and lost cars are money burden
daily upon the road on which they
were lost until proper accounting is
made.
