TESTIFY

CHICAGO, April Z. The
Twentieth century limited pulls
out of New York in the after
noon, and arrives in Chicago the
next forenoon. During this run
over 20 hours-the porters are
not supposed to sleep at all.
This was testimony given be-
fore the industrial relations COM
mittee yesterday afternoon by G.
II. Sylvester, who has been on the
run 10 years.
But don't think said Silves-
ter, that we don't sleep. The
railroad officials know that we
do. We're supposed to guard the
car, but after everyone goes to
sleep, we take a little nap, too. "
He said he got $3.50 month
from the Pullman Co., and ST.
from tips.
Other witness testified that
they could not come near making
living from the wages they
were paid, and were obliged to
receive tips or starve.

but ] succeeded before nightfall
in getting II all spread out on the
beach to dry. We were both very
tired when We knocked off for
supper, and We had done good
work, too, though to the eye it,
appeared insignificant.
Next morning, with Maud as
able assistant, went into the.
hold of the Ghost to clear the
steps of the mast-butts. We had
no more than begun work when
the sound of my knocking and
hammering brought Wolf Larsen.

the open hatch.
The sound of his voice made
Maud quickly draw close to me,
as for protection. and she rested
one hand on my arm while we
parleyed.

What are you doing down
there?" he demanded. Trying
to scuttle my ship for me?"

fetched a second chest and placed
II on top of the first. Then he
gathered up the marmalade and
underclothes and put them on the
table. When he started up the
companionway, / retreated, 81
lently rolling over on top Of the
cabin.
He showed the slide part way

his body still in the companion
way. His attitude was Of one

my hand back and forth, of
course without effect; but when
the moving shadow fell across his
face | saw at once that he was
susceptible to the impression. His
face became more expectant, and
tense. He knew that he had re-
sponded to something from with
out, that his sensibility had been
touched by a changing something
in his environment; but what 1t
was he could not discover. l
ceased waving my hand, so that
the shadow remained stationary.
He slowly moved his head back
and forth under it and turned
from side TO side, now in the
sunshine, now in the shade, feel
ing the shadow. as it were, test
ing it by sensation.

son out how he was aware of so

otherwise, then the only con-
clusion ! could reach was4hat the
sensitive skin recognized the diff
ference of temperature between
shade and sunshine. Or, perhaps,
who can tell?--it was that
tabled sixth sense which con-
veyed to him the loom and feel
of an object close at hand.
Giving over his attempt to de-
termine the shadow, he stepped
on deck and started forward,
walking with a swiftness and con-
fidence which surprised me. And
still there was that hint of the
feebleness of the blind in his
walk. | knew it now for what
1t was.
To my amused chagrin he dis
covered my shoes on the fore
castle head and brought them
back with him into the galley. l
watched him build the fire and
set about cooking food for HIM
self; then l stole into the cabin
for my marmalade and under
clothes, slipped back past the
galley, and climbed down to the
beach to deliver my barefoot re-
port.
