BOSTON, Mass, March 23.-Boston
Is very proud Of one citizen who has
Just retired from active service. His
name is Joseph Merritt Alexander,
and he has been TN engineer on the
Boston and Albany for fifty years.
During the half century Of his service
he never received nreprlmand nor 9
black mark; no error was ever re
corded against him, and no human
lives were ever lost while he guided
the fast engines over the miles Of
track. He never missed a day during
his fifty years Of service, never was
late, and for the last rs years he rose
every day at 3 q. H., and was beside
his engine shortly after, ready fol
duty at 4:so. The miles he covered
would stretch to the moon at least
