 Wants Pass Extended.
 q have been railroading for twenty one years" said passenger conducl tor at the union station esterday, but this morning I certainly ran across the limit. A lady got on my train with a ticket for Montgomery, and after had taken up her fare she handed me pass from Montgomery to New Or leans. and asked me if I thought it could be extended.
 "T have stayed a little longer than thought I would she said, but thought I might get it extended when reached Montgomery.
 The pass had been issued in June; 1sO5--two years ago--and was limited to December 31, 1905. As this morn- ing was January 17, 1907, I told her I was quite sure the pass would not be extended. She put 1t back in her purse. but I noticed she hurried to the ticket office when we reached Mont gomery, and bought a ticket from Montgomery to New Orleans"
