HOW HE WAS EMPLOYED
colored Man Explained to General
Clarke Exactly His Position
With the Railroad.

An all too fast disappearing genera
ton of older railroad executives are
accustomed when recalling Gen. James
G. Clarke, for many years before his
death president of the Illinois Central,
to speak of his stately courtliness, the
warm Southern tinge Of his hospitality
and the depth and breadth Of his per-
sonal charity, which ever kept him In
lean purse. But the general, says the
Wall Street Journal, was also live
railroader, no respecter Of mere Gus
tom, and we'll to the fore In the era
which transferred Chicago from a
Lake Michigan port to the largest In
terror continental city in the world.
General Clarke was found Of telling
how in the postbellum days an order
was issued from the head Office Of one
Southern system that no more per-
sonal Wallets should be carried on the
nav rolls, and that the name of the
bureau Of which it was port should be
painted on the door of each room.
Shortly after the president, on
personal inspection tour, opened the
door of a very small room and con-
fronted an ancient negro of eminently
respectable and respectful mien. Said
the president:
"You black rebel, are you still here?~
81 shoa Is" he bowed.
"And what pay roll are you onT'
