clim b into the cab in the morn
ing, make the run along the line
and then return to the round
house" said William Peabody, of
Trenton. retired by the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad on his SEVENTEEN
birthday with pension Of 500 a
month. He had for half cent
ury worked in the cab-three
years las a fireman and forty
seven as an engineer. During
that time he had held the throttle
of the fastest trains run on the
Pennsylvania system.
u may get used to this simple
life, but / guess not" he added.
The desire to be in the cab will
probably be with me until reach
the grave"
AS he spoke Peabody gazed
from the porch of his cottage
near the railroad tracks at Tren-
ton. The Federal Express was
dashing through the yard at six
ty miles an hour. The old engi-
ueer's eyes followed the rapidly
revolving locomotive wheels as
the train whirred thro the dust
and was lost to sight around a
curve far down the line. There
was a call in the air which Pea
body knew, but which his visitor
only surmised.
"That's my only failiug," he
said to the writer, as he bit off
the end of a black cigar. Inever
in all my life drank a drop of
liquar of any kind. and I never
was much for being out at night
unless I had to work. AS soon
as I got my engine iuto the round
house after the days run and
saw that she was in good condi-
ton for the night went home.
1t is hard these days to find
William Peabody at home. There
is still in his heart the longing
TO climb upon an engine and
nearly every day he takes a
ride along the line.
Supt. G. C. Smith. of the A. B.
& A., had only reached home
from N. Carolina where he had
visited his invalid wife, when a
telegram came that she was dy-

spirit had passed out before he
arrived. Over fifty kilograms of
coincidence were sent to the sup
erindent from his employees.
They also wired him to get the
best floral design in Atlanta, at
any cost at their expence. The

SUICIDAL POLICY.

Through the medium of the papers
In their respective cities. the mer-
chants of Indianapolis and Muncie
are offering free fares to customers
who purchase twenty-five dollars
worth of goods. That this scheme is
successful Is attested to by the fact
that sixty-two citizens of three Wayne
county towns connected by rail with
Muncie, made their purchases in that
city last Saturday. In order to get
their fares rebated these people had
to purchase twenty-five dollars worth
of goods of the various merchants in
the scheme, and the total amount
spent in Muncie therefore, was APP
proximately $3.50. Now $3.50 is a
pretty stiff sum to have go out of the
county in one day from our home
merchants standpoint, but they have
only themselves to blame. The mer-
chants of Richmond are pursuing a
suicidal policy of do nothing" and
as a result their competitors in Indi-
annapolis and Muncie are walking
away with their business. The spas
modic excursions gotten up here
every once in a while to bring Gus
toners to Richmond from outside
towns aceomplishes no permanent
good. What the merchants of this
town must do is to give free fares
just as their brother merchants in
other towns are doing

ID ICHMOND'S Centennial May
Ia Music Festival to be held

l1t1MoND . centennial May
Ia Music Festival to be held
May 20 and 20 in the Rich
mond Coliseum will by long odds
eclipse any musical event that has
ever taken place in Eastern Indiana,
probably it would not be amiss to
say in the entire state.
1t is a Richmond enterprise wholly.
subscribed by public spirited citizens
and business men, the financial part
advance. From an artistic stand.
point there can be no question of the
great success that will crown the
laudable efforts of the Richmond
Festival Association. No such array
of musical talent has ever been
brought to an Indiana city outside of
indianapolis.
The Great Orchestra.
The engagement of the Theodore
Thomas Orchestra, of Chicago, for the
festival this year was master stroke
upon the part of the management and
it has given an interest in the ap-
preaching event to outsiders that
could not have been hoped for other
wise.
To the music-loving public from
ocean to ocean. the name Of the
Theodore Thomas Orchestra. of Chi
cago, is familiar one. The organ
ization and maintenance of this. the
worlds greatest orchestra, is a
triumph for the city Of Chicago. and
one in which all true Americans love
to join.
Some slight conception of the es-
TEEN in which this orchestra is held
by the city of Chicago, may be had
from the fact that permanent home
known as Orchestra Hall. has been
erected at cost of three-ouarters of
a million dollars.
This organization as it stands to-
day represents the life-work of Mr..
Theodore Thomas, recently deceased,
one of the greatest conductors the
world has produced.
No greater compliment could be
paid to Mr. Frederick Stock than the
one he received from the manage
ment of the Theodore Thomas Or
chestra, when he was selected to fill
the position left vacant By the death
of Mr.. Thomas.
Mr.. Stocks Ability.
Mr.. Stock holds his position solely
by virtue of his ability. and it is
position that any orchestra conductor
in the world would be glad to have.
1t was a supreme test of ability to
be asked to win the esteem of the
of the organization, so great hold
had Mr.. Thomas upon them. and so
firm a foundation had he laid. In
fact it was not expected that such
task could be accomplished except by
years of hard work.
The Richmond Chorus.
