RAILROADER "a YEARS

William Flynn, of Bridgeport, acting
station master at the White street
station during Fair week, is one of
the oldest men in the employ of the
New York., New Haven & Hartford
railroad company, says the Danbury
News. The other day when travel was
somewhat slack, Mr.. Flynn had a few
moments to spare and the conversa-
ton took a turn to the former days
of railroad life.
u have been railroading twenty
four years. said Mr.. Flynn, land I
am the last of the old crowd. I can
Fair traffic in the old days The
crowds that came by rail were larger
in those days and we didn't have the
aceommod ations for them that we
have now. The coaches were smaller
then, too.
when first came to Danbury to
the Fair, we used to come into the old
Main street station. And we handled
a great many people right there, let
me tell you. Then we changed over
to this station but it was a whole
lot different from the present one. We
had only a single track out to the Fair
grounds and used to do our own
switching and tagging. Then came
the double tracks and the introduction
of the. present system.
It suppose have handled more Fair
crowds than any other man on the
New Haven road today. I have been
at it nearly twenty-five years and have
had something to do with the Fair
travel every year. And think I am
good for some time to come" were
Mr.. F1ynn'S parting words as he walk
ed away to announce q train.

Within the marrow confines of a
crusher bin at Nichols this morning
Robert Johnson of. 500 Center street
extension faced death from burning
and only escaped through his own
activity. The explosion of a gasoline
torch, used by him to fix some of the
machinery, filed the narrow space
with flames, burned both hands badly,

his head. No one was near him to

workmen were bathing his hands with
machine oil, others removed his
-charred trousers and replaced them
Easton rushed him to the emergency
hospital IN his automobile where DR..
William H. Curley gave surgical at
tention. The burns are not expected
to prove serious.
Johnson, who is employed by the
B. D. Pierce Jr. Company of this city,
was engaged with a gang in road
building and got into the bin to make
some minor repairs. Lying down, he
had occasion to use the torch and it
exploded following the application of
a match. In an instant the space was
filled with flames. He retained pres
ence of mind to put his hands over
his face and crawled into the open.
There was a partition of about eight
feet to swing over and then a drop of
about rs feet. Literally a living torch.
he fell to the ground. The trip
through. the air, aid of companions
and his own efforts quenched the
flames. His trousers were SO badly
burned that parts of them fell off
while holes were burned in his shirt
Eyebrows were singed but his eyes
escaped the flames.

Mrs Kate Burroughs, assistant clerk
and stenographer of the Departn1 ent
of Police made her first visit to the
Second precinct station Saturday af-
ternoon, had an exciting time and had
some of the sensations experienced by
the militant women of England. Hap
pening to be in that section of the city
she considered that it would be an eX-
ceIIent time to see the station house
She entered, was cordially received by
Captain John H. Regain and Lieuten-
ant George B. Coley and given a chair
behind the booking desk.
Department matters we're being dis
cussed when all at once they noted
that the street was filling up with
youngsters and the attention OF all
seemed directed at the station house.
Must be that Kate Robinson is com
ing to register with u.s. commented
Captain Regain. Soon they were en-
Iightened however as conversation in
formed them that Mrs. Burroughs was
thought to be a prisoner and under
arrest. They remained there peering
in the windows until she got ready to
leave.
As she proceeded down the street
to take a car for home, an urchin,
ragged, Fbarefooted and hardly out of
the cradle, ran ahead and piped out
There's the 1oidy that was arrested.
In that section of the city it. was suf
ficient to cause general attention and
attract a crowd. Mrs. Burroughs re-

desired companionship as far as the
car. Some other time she intends to
visit the station and wonders if his
