Gossip Of RaIIwaymen

The news of the approaching visit of
Paul Morton, president of the Equitable
life assurance society, has let loose a
flood of stories about him when he was
railroadman, and there are some who
shiver at the idea of his again being
president of the Santa Fe, as many
think not unlikely.
Morton" said an old railroadman
has quiet humor. not always appre-
ciated by those whom it affects. He had
once a boy in his office who continually
asked him for a raise of salary, which
was promised, but was not forthcoming.
so the boy undertook to demonstrate
with Morton.
Look here, Mr. Norton he said
you promised me you would give me
a raise of salary, and you have not
done it. How about it?'
How much of a raise did
promise your
"You never told me-
" All right, you will get it next
month. You are paid $12 a month
now. eh?
Yes
Next month the boy received s12.75.
Morton had clever young fellow
in his Office whom he paid $50 month,
and who thought the salary insufficient.
Finally he sent his father, who was a
friend of Mortons, to tell him that he
was underpaid.
THE old man told Morton his son
was dissatisfied at having worked for
three years at $50 month, and that he
should get more.
:" L tell you what the trouble is with
your boy replied Morton. He is too
ambitious"
II am confident few railroadmen
have SO singular a charge as myself"
remarked E. S. Jewett of the passenger
department of the Missouri Pacific, who
is on visit to the city. You all know

years general agent of the Wabash in

Bourne admitted. under pressure, that
he had decided where the $4,000 plum
would drop, but that the prospective
officeholder had not and would not be
informed until his appointment was
sent in. After he visited Bourne, ac-
companied by w. f Burke and Jim
Kyle, John B. Coffey came to the con-
ClusiOn that if he is ever to be post
master it is not to colnt through
Bourne.
