Riding Inside and Outside of Pullman Cars at the Company’s Expense—A Shert Trip in a Car Refrigerator—A Boy With Great Nerve Rides on the Car Axle—A Pullman Car Conductor Tells = Star Reporter of Unique Experiences. ‘Written for The Evening Star. UTSIDE OF THE fact that thousands will ravel to the world’s fair and back on passes issued by the different railroad companies, = there will also be thou- ‘sands go there free, and without having the nec- essary pass, either. This fact was brought to the notice of an Evexrxa Stax reporter one even- “ ing recently through an interview with a well-known Pullman car con- ductor. This gentleman has had charge of cars between New York and Chicago, and, in fact, from all the eastern cities going west. The different companies have indeed been Uberal with those persons who are entitled to passes, but that class of citizens who “toil not, neither do they spin,” have just as greet a de- sire to see the wonders of the great fair us their more fortunate brothers and sistors, and while they cannot secure free trai tion through the generosity of the railroad companies, they can at least rack their idle brains for i jous schemes to accomplish that end, and, if the tales told by this conductor are any criterion to go by, they are meeting with great success. “The class of dead beats that are now throng- ing the roads from the Pacific to the Atlantic, " said this conductor, “are, without # doubt, the most daring and tricky that it has been my lot to come across. My railroad experi- ence dates back fifteen years, and I have U with people who appeared to be the very cream of the deadhead profession, but those we run across now seem to be of an exalted chapter of that rapidly increasing order. ‘WALL YROM EVERY QUARTER OF THE COUNTRY. “They not only hail from every quarter of this country, but the old conntry furnishes hundreds, and they no doubt came over the ocean, as they are going west, free. As to the peo le individually, they embrace children ly in their teens and older persons of both sexes. And while the men are extremely in- genious end successful with their = the women are not one whit behind mm. No matter how low the fare is these people would consider it a disgrace if they traveled in an honest, respectable manner. Before my car starts on its trip west I make a most thorough inspection of it, both inside‘and out, and watch the people closely as they enter the car. My two porters have the same instructions, but even with all our caution I have carried people hundreds of miles before discovering the fact that they were traveling free and without “A great deal of the trouble lies with the at- taches of the aifferent big depots of the eastern cities and with the west, I suppose, but I can’t speak by the card as to that section, not having run a car further west than Chicago. The men around the depots, and the women also, obtain possession of duplicate keys in some mysterious manner, and while we are congratulating our- selves on having everything safe and sound under lock and key, subsequent developments have demonstrated the fact that locks might Just as well have been dispensed with. IN THE REFRIGERATOR. “A casein point. On one of my trips west in the fore part of June Inst the cook on my car went to the refrigerator, located under the center of the Pullman, and took therefrom » considerable quantity of provisions of various kinds. This occurred in the depot at’Cincin- nati. The articles were needed for the last meal of the day, and, as the ice was about ex- hausted, the refrigerator was almost emvtied, I stood by while the cook was performing this work, and after he had locked the box up securely I examined the lock to satisfy my- “It was dark and our trip out to Chicago would be @ continuous one. The noxt morning when the cook and myself went to the refriger- ator to open it to renew the supplies of ice and provisions for the return trip, what was our surprise to find therein an urchin of about fourteen summers comfortably curled up on a lot of cotton waste placed on the bottom of the box. We yanked him out rather roughly and demanded where snd how he had gotten into the snug retreat. Hoe said: ‘Cincinnati, boss, and me father done de trick. He's one of do cleaners up around the depo, and he said you wouldn't give me up to the perlice, as he was ‘one of the railroad profesh.’ “What could Ido? Several of our men gath- ered around, and at the conclusion of his story he went on bis way with enough money in’ his pocket to pay his expenses for « couple of days. ‘he funny part of the whole thing was that on my return trip through Cincinnati one of the cleaners at the depot sidled up to me and in an undertone inquired: ‘Did Mike McGinnis’ boy get through all right “T told him he did, but if his father didn't return a certain key to me by the time I came back on my next trip there would be a certain McGinnis under lock and key out at the county Jail within the next week. I found the key in ‘an old dirty envelope among my mail on the net trip wost, “But people of that class have my sympathy. ‘The father works bard, but his income is #0 small and his family so large that to take in the fair is simply an impossibility. RIDING ON A TRUCK. “The class I abhor, as I have said before, is the one that never works and takes great pride in beating the railroad compsny. The most remarkable case that has come under my notice this summer developed at Pitteburg two weeks since, and only a thoroughbred knight of the road would have undertaken the adventure. “When the New York and Chicago limited, a pattcf which was my oar, pulled into the depot in the smoky city after ® continuous run of overa hundred miles, the car inspectors, as usual, began to make an examination of the wheels and trucks to ascertain if any flaws ex- isted. Ihad alighted, with several passengers, on the platform to stretch our limbs and to en- joy a smoke. As the inspector dove down under the car and poked his head in among the dust-covered and greasy running gear of the car, a dirt-bogrimed face was thrust close to his husky voice assailed him with: ‘Say, pard, is this yere a town?” “The inspector was almost dumfounded with surprise, but managed to say that it was and that Pittsburg was its name. ‘Well, I guess I have gone far enough,” came from the voice, as its owner emerged from the interior of the trucks and stretched himself on the platform before our astonished eyes, We asked him where he had come from and he said New York, and had been in there since the afternoon before. He was, of course, bound for Chicago, but could stand ‘his cramped posi- tion no longer and would continue his journey ata later period. One of the men around the depot tried to arrest hit, but he scaled the fence and disappeared. When I think of the sition he occupied for some sixteen hours, no loubt sleeping part of tho night, I consider the attractions of Chicago something bordering on the supernatural that could make a man take such a risk to witness them,” ‘i suppote tbe freight ‘service has to, deal with the larger part of this roving class,” the reporter asked, “Most certainly.” the conductor replied, “but they are of an inferior class and not half ‘so in- teresting nor so shrewd and nervy. The women are not afraid to take the same chances as the men and I have found them equally as shrewd. A WOMAN'S TRICK. “Very recently one of these women played one of their stock games on the passengers of three different trains, and inside of two days traveled from New York to Pittsburg without the outlay of a cent, and at the end of tho trip undoubtedly had more money in her pocket book than'when she started. These facts were gleaned by me through the comparison of notes with two other Pullman car conductors in our room at the Jersey City depot. “The woman in question boarded the Chi- cago limited at Jersey City and entered Charley Murphy's car. That train goes through to Phil- adelphia without a stop. As soon as she was seated in the car the woman attracted the notice of all other Passengers by her actions. She was continually looking out of the window or walking to the platform as if expecting some one. As soon as the train started she gave a little scream and fell over in a swoon on the floor. Of course everybody was on their feet in s minute and anxiously inquiring the cause of the woman's collapse. In # minute or so she came to, and in @ pitying voice in- quired for ber husband. - “That —— gentleman not putting in = appearance the woman began telling a story how she was to meet him at the depot and to- gether they were to travel to the world’s fair. She badn’t one penny with ber, not even a rail- road ticket, as her husband had attended to ‘that and was no doubt at that moment frantic- ally hunting for her in the depot we hed but re- cently pulled out of. “Charley Murphy is one of the best-hearted men that draws breath, but while he sympa- thized with the woman his duty pointed out the right course to pursue, and with a clouded brow he said he would have to stop the train and put her off. The Pullman company have many ‘spotters’ traveling, and, to tell the truth, Charley was a littie dubious of her and thought she might be trying him. “On all these through trains a majority of the people are well-to-do and many are wealthy. As ley reuched for the engine signal to stop the train a chorus = teed — on,” greeted him and his arm dropped by his side. Several men stepped forward and one of them was permitted to pay her fare to Philadelphia, while snother a considerable sum of money into her hand and, at the woman's re- also bis card. jo doubt the woman's ng wong oe po ner and exceedingly pretty = great deal to do with the course taken by the pas- sengers, and her “Thank you; you are very kind,’ seemingly repaid those who had given her the money. She said she would alight at Philadelphia and telegraph back to her husband her whereabouts. Charley said afterward that at never struck bim toask her how she came through the entrance gate, as only those with tickets are allowed upon the car platform. But if he had she would no doubt have had a good story to cover that. THE SECOND ATTEMPT. “The train that my car was part of pulled out of Jersey City in the afternoon and at Philadelphia I caught the woman. She came into my car and the tactics told above were re- ted with little variation and she was carried Harrisburg, my next stop, a distanceof about 125 miles. At that place she alighted and must have spent the night, because Conductor Jack Faller carried her to Pittsburg the next day under exactly the same circumstances as Mur- phy andI had brought her from New York bf Philadelphia. “Whether that woman is traveling yet upon other roads or alighted at Chicago well satis- fied with her unique plan I am unable to say, % oar comparison of experiences only came about through accident and several weeks after their occurrence. One thing is sure, if that little woman left New a tate of things I very much doubt, she must have been several hundred dollars ahead of the game by the time she reached the gates of the grest ex- position, “Now, while that scheme to beat her way from New York to the world’s fair was an in- nious one,” continued the Pullman con- juctor, “there was an utter Jack of nerve, as in the two previous cases cited. But the chief requirements of the latter plan is # pretty face coupled with a sympathetic expression, and where the idea bas not become known will go through ninety-nine times out of a hundred. Hiding in berths, under chairs and sofas, riding on tops of the cars and even in the closets are often resorted to, and it is very seldom that the through trains can make continuous runs on ac- count of the necessity of stopping to put this class of travelers off the cars. “Any person that has ridden on Pullman cars has noticed the accordiop-like connection between the cars and also the smaller side doors leading to th from thst closed passageway. That spot gives us more trouble than any other ion of thecars. To go out ona trip without carefully looking over this passageway, both inside and out. would be ross negligence on the part of any conductor. Hus people who steal ride take to this oonven- ijent and safety contrivance as a duck does to water. In fact they can almost be said to grub in it like a white wood worm does in a rotten log. They compress their body into the small- est possible knot, and # hole hardly large enough to admita good-sized dog or cat is seized upon by them asan éxceedingly lucky find, and no thought of the risk they ran in such a position is considered. A run-in of the smallest sort or a jumping of the track or a disarrangement cf the running gear of the car meanssure death to them. It takes some little time for them to get into the hiding place and longer to get out, consequently the slightest accident monnaan injury or death, “Another source of trouble to the conscien- tious conductor is the colored porter. While we generally secure good men for those tions it very frequently occurs that a dishonest one has crept into the position and we only be- come ware of this luck of honesty through ne- cident. With tho increasé of travel of this Summer a larger force was Canoe e joyed and consequently a eye be tept on them. IX 4 LINEN closer. “The traveling inspector of the company told me one day last week of # novel idea employed by a dishonest porter to carry a friend of his from Jersey City to Chicago. It was euccess- ful, too, and was only discovered at the end of the run and the porter, of course, lost his job, “The linen closet of a Pullman car is quite commodious on account of the large amount of bedding and toweling carried on # continuous trip, and while a habitation therein for twenty- four hours is not the most pleasant thing im- aginable, it will answer as such in s case of necessity. It was s case of necessity on the part of the porter’sfriend, and by some shrewd maneuvering on the latter's part he was smug- gied into the car and stowed away among the linen. The friend must have suffered terribly from the heat and compressed diet, as sandwiches and water were about all he got throughout the trip, and when I discovered him, only through an accident, he was almost white ass result of the confinement, “As we neared Chicago one of the Indy pas- sengers was taken suddenly ill, ard not finding any towels handy I made a break for the closet to secure several of them. As I unlocked the closet door, you can imugine my surprise to find snugly’ ensconced therein a negro bor of about twenty years, and although the sweat was rolling off of him in great beads, he was sleep- ing as soundly as a field hand after a hard day’ work. I jerked him out without ceremony, and as I did so the dishonest porter came upon the scene. Then we had it for several minutes, the verbal battle consisting for the most part of profanity from me and pleadings from the porter to be let down easy. He was dismissed ‘at Chicago, but the sick young lady gave mea reproachful look as she left the car, as I had entirely forgotten her in the excitement of my discovery. a MINING FOR HIDDENITE, A Gem Acoldentally Discovered That is as Valuable as the Diamond. From the Great Divide. Some years ago Edison, the electric wizard, was convinced that platinum existed in North Carolina. He sent William Earl Hidden, an accomplished mineralogist, in search of it. Mr. Hidden little knew at the time how fall of re} sults to him that pursuit of platinum would be. He could not find the desired mineral, but he found something far better. At Alerander county, quict part of the ‘tate many miles from a railway, he was di- rected by Mr. J. A. D. Stephenson to gem- bearing ground, and, looking a little more narrowly, found some of the gems. He pur- chased some land, returned to Edison, re- Ported hie vain quest of platinum, then went k to North Carolina. He at once began to develop the mine. Sinking shaft ina simple way, he gradually made the opening larger and larger, until saperficially ‘the mine pre- sented the aspect of sstone quarry. Out of this rude pitin the earth were taken unnum- bered gems, one hitherto unknown. To this Mr. J. Lawrence Smith of §t. Louis, an emi- nent scientist, gave Hidden's name, and “Hid- denite," the equivalent of the diamond, became instantly the fashion. Its tender-tinted green crystals, its intense hardness and ite new beauties when cut were only some of its charms, From the day of ite discovery to the present it has been a hopeless task to supply the demand for it, Every Hiddenite found is purchased long in advance. But strange as is this flashing miracle of the earth, the place of its birth is yet stranger. The laborers who are working in the mine handle their picks with the greatest care. They are on the wateh for “pockets.” Possibly for an hour the digging goes on, and no “pocket” is struck. Presently the pick goss into an opening. with careful fingers the earth is par- tially removed, and finally the miner feels with his bunds every portion of the walls of the opening. It may happen that his search is in vain, but it is oftener the case that his fiugers touch little crystals that are so imbedded in the sides of the pocket that their pointe alone pro- ject outward. They are carefully picked out. verhaps all are beryis, perhaps there are = dozen kinds of gems, or it may be that taere are only Hiddenites. Sometimes gems worth hundreds of dollars are thus taken from one Pocket, ae Correct Analogy.

Alone Without Food or Weapons in = Strange Country—Facing ‘Indians, ‘Written for The Evening Star. By the wrecking of his cance end the drown- ing of his companions Porter Donley was left alone without food and without weapons in a country whose trails were traveled only by hostile Indians. It was forty miles to bis nearest town in the other, with inhospitable woods between. He would not go beck to civilization penniless, He must work his way back to his cabin. He turned his back to the river and climbed the steep slope of the banks, keeping well within sight of the stream, and made his way slowly, ‘now creeping along the river's edge, now cross- ing a point where the underbrush gave him op- Portunity. His first serious check was a stream. He could not wade it and he already felt enongh danger of the cold waters to make Swimming distasteful were he able to swim. He Went up stream until finding some drift he crossed on it. So every cross stream added a mile or more. The forty miles lengthened into hundred before him. He was tempted to continue his journey inland, crossing the neck of great bend, but the sometimes mountainous character of the country and the possibility of losing his way determined him to adhere to the river bank et whatever cost.

Sometimes he would hear the cat calls of the cougar in the depth of the woods, sometimes ‘the crackling of the brush would tell the pas- sage of the ruder bear. The second was more wearisome than the first, but less hunger. After that bunger became more unde- fined and in consequence Donley's fatigue and aches became less marked. ‘On the third day he saw an opening in the woods and bent his course toward it.

Every nerve in bis body was alive to the slightest sensation and each sensation was magnified to the utmost. The crackling of » twig became the fall of an arrow.
