women waited for hours. They stood
on draught-swept platforms, but

come, the tears came too-tears of a

There were babies, too. Some

MAY ARREST YOU AT THE DEPOT

- VS. ~a'SSSS~ a. tho IoAA
last week for visiting with a
friend through the window. The
,riend was in the coach and the man
outside stood on the rod and hung on
by holding to the open window.
When the train started he still hung
on for a moment, not thinking he
was in any danger. Agent w. L.
Young, realizing that when he drop
ped off he might slip under the
wheels when his feet hit the ice, took
prompt action to protect him and
keep him from doing it again. Mr..
Young arrested him and turned him
over to an officer charging him with
trespassing, and he was fined one
dollar in Judge Ezell's court.
There are so many ways by which
person may be crushed or crippled
under a train, that strict laws and
rules are made to enable the operat-
ing company to protect itself against
unnecessary risks. Most of the ac-
cidents about the railroad yards are
due to trespassing by persons who
have no business there, and en-
ployees are made police officers by
the state law, so that If necessary or
advisable, they can take trespassers
into costody. People who do not I'M
derstand these matters often expose
themselves to dangers which they do
not realize, and if an employee takes
steps to protect both them and the
company they sometimes become Of
fensive and even insolent about it.
The employee may exercise all the
powers of police officer and be pro-
tected N his acts. If you are walk
down the track with your best girl,
you may be arrested and fined, both
of you, and you will have to submit
to it, however, wrong and humiliating
it may seem, but this is not likely
to happen. The railroad men will
do whatever seems best to spare you
any embarrassment, but they have
motto that reads, Safety First" and
they might not spare you. The news
paper does all it can to keep you in
formed about good things and
dangers, new rules and the reasons
for them, and We can't help it If
you don't read the paper. The plain
truth of the matter is that you are
trespasser if you 60 upon the railroad
property at all except to cross it or to
attend to business relations that take
you there. If you have ticket you
can go upon the train. If you have
not and have no business to attend
to about the depot and are not there
to meet a passenger or to accompany
somebody who is leaving, then you
are a trespasser and are subject to
arrest, fine and possible imprison-
ment. Seems harsh, Ell?
Well, suppose the whole town
should take the same notion that a
lot of idle persons sometimes do, and
meet every passenger train for a
week, and crowd about the place so
that people could not get on or off
and so that employees could not
handle the baggage in the usual way.
The whole crowd would be guilty of
trespassing, but not more so than
You would be if you were the only
one there, for they would all be do
ing the same th;ng-stan ling around.
1t is dangerous practice, fooling
around the cars; when something
frightful happens, it is generally ex-
planned like the gun that wasn't load
ed. The railroad people want you to
keep your place so they can do their
work and serve those who are entitled
to service.
