The PENNSYLVANIA railroad has an

The payments from the relief fund on

lilies of employees who died $3.50, a
total of $50, 461.55 for the month. The
disbursements for relief On the en-
tire system since the fund was organ

Ticket-Printing Machine.

The ticket-printing machine adopt
ed by the German government is de-
signed to simplify the work of rail-
road Offices, and makes unnecessary
the usual large stock of many kinds
of tickets at each station. The APP
paratus at Cologne-made for 1900
stations-is three feet long, four feet
high and twenty inches wide. 1t car
ries printing plate for each kind of
ticket required, and an alphabetical
index-scale shows at glance the
names of the stations to which tick
cts are issued. The only stock need
ed is a supply of pieces of cardboard
OF the right size. When a ticket is
called for, a blank card is slid into
place opposite the required station.
handle is depressed and the ticket
drops out, printed with the names of
the departure and destined stations,
consecutive number, fare, route, class
of carriage, and other facts. At the
same operation a duplicate is printed
on a continuous sheet to serve as a
record. Actual gain in time is claimed,
a clerk having issued as many as 500
tickets in an hour; there is NO delay
from the giving out of the supply of
certain tickets, and at the end of the
day the continuous sheet gives an ac-
curate record of the business done.
With this system in use, there can be
no ticket roberies. no issue of un-
accommodation tickets.

the eyes began to swell. The itching

CONDUCTOR A HARD WORKER.
His Duties Are Many, and They Call
for Ability Away Above the
Average.

As conductor he will probably be
gin in the freight service. His ca
boose will be travelling Office and
more than that it will carry all the
gossip of the division up and down
the line. 1t may be a homely little
car, but it is just as sure to be
homelike place. From it's elevated
outlook he may command good view
of the train away head to the engine,
and he will be supposed to know all
the while that the brakemen are at
tending to their duties; that the train
is in good order. particularly that
there are no hot boxes smoking away
and in imminent danger of setting
fire to the train and its valuable con-
tents. There is a deal of bookkeep-
ing to be accomplished in that travel
ing Office, says Edward Hungerford in
Outing The conductor will receive
the way bills of the cars of his train
and their contents, and he is held re-
sponsible for their safe deliveries to
their destination or the junction
points where they are to be delivered
to other lines.
When he comes to the passenger
service there will be still more book
keeping to confront him, and he will
have to be man OF good mental at
tainments to handle all the many,
many varieties of local and through
tickets, mileage books, passes and
other forms of transportation con-
tracts that ocme to him, to detect the
good from the bad, to throw out the
| counterfeits that are constantly being
offered to him. He will have to carry
quite a money account for cash
| fares. and he knows that mistakes
will have to be paid for out of his own
pocket
| All that is only phase of his bust
ness. He is responsible for the care
and safe conduct of his train, equally
responsible in the last respect with
the engineer. He also receives and
signs for the train orders, and he is
required to keep in mind every
tail of the trains progress over til
line. He will have his own assert
! ment of questions to answer at every
stage of the journey, and he will b.
expected to maintain the discipline
of the railroad upon it's trains. Thai

ejectment of passenger who refuse:
to pay his fare-and still he must no

suit-or in another, the subjugatioI
