All his old customers are cordially invited to call e A THRILLING EXPERIENCE. An Operator's Halr Turned White From Intense Anxiety. “‘Accident caused by an incompetent train dispatcher,” remarked a gentle- man in an up-town hotel, to a reporter of the New York Evening Sun, as he laid down a newspaper after reading an account of a railroad collision. ‘‘People are beginning to realize the fact that two trains can’t pass each other on a single track,” he remarked dryly. The gentleman was & superintendent of a western railroad, who had worked his way up from a telegraph operator, stopping for sixteen years in a dis- patcher’s position before a superinten- dency was awarded him, To a circle of friends he spoke of the dangersof travel and the duties of a train dispatcher. “Few people,” said he, “even those who travel continually, know the dan- ger that they are in while rushing over mountains and through valleys at the rate of forty miles an hour, with trains in front of them, trains behind them, passenger, freight, excursion, construc- tion, special and wild trains thundering along on the same track. In the east, where nearly every road ,is double- tracked, the danger is materially di- minished, but the great network of roads that spreads like a fisherman’s net over the great west is mostly single track, and requires men of iron nerve and quick brains to handle the trains. One of our dispatchers virtually holds the lives of our passengers at the ends of his fingers. “Suppose for . moment a dispatcher should lose his head, what is the result? An awful catastrophy. But it is sel- dom, comparatively speaking, that an accident or collision occurs, and for this we can thank the lynx-eyed, quick-wit- ted and nimble-fingered man who sits in his office hundreds of miles away and controls the movements of his engineers and conductors by the aid of hisservant, electricity, Before him lies a train- sheet divided into subdivisions, with the name of each station, and a column for each train, both east and west bound, entered thereon. When a train leaves a station the operator reports it to the dispajcher as arriving and de- parting at whatever time it miget be, which is entered on the sheet. Thus, by glancing at the train-sheet, the dis- patcher tell where each train is. There are roads where a dispatcher has charge of two freight divisions of 100 wmiles each, On each division are thirty trains each way, making 120 trains con- trolled by one man, with possibly one assistant. **We will suppose that a train is late and cannot make its meeting point. This is a time when the telegraph must straighten out things, and if not done well a snarl of trains will be the result. Train 10 is behind time, which happens from various causes, “This r ular meeting point with train 7 is at A, Not being able to make it, the dis- patcher sends an order to train 7 at C. The following is the generally accepted style of an order: T conductor and engmeer No. 7: at C—— until train No. 10 arrives. w "he operator at C then display signal,a flag by day and a lamp by night, that warns the conductor of train 7 not to pass C without ascertain- ing what the signal is out for, When the orders are delivered the conductor and cugineer sign them and tey wre repeated to the dispatcher, who, if they are correct, auswers back 'Q. K. The dispatcher then sends an order to train 10 as follows: To Conductor and Engineer Train 10 At Run to C regardless of Train 7. Apswer. w.w.C “When this is signed. repeated and 0. K.'d the train pulls out and makes the meeting point. Were it not for this order the conductor would have to run his train according to a rule on the back of the time-card. This rule is that atrain not having the right of way must wait at its mre(ing point for vari- ation of wathes, and then it can pro- ceed to its next meeting point. The train having the right of way ulso waits five minutes for variation of watches. Trains are olassified, passenger trains having the right of way over freights, and the latter over work trains. *“This may look very simple, but when you take into consideration that the two trains in question are only a small part of the number that are.at the same time under the supervision of the dispatcher, it will be seen that travel- ers are trusting themselves blindly to an unseen power, The essential points of a train dispatcher are sobriety, strict attention to duty and a brain quick enough to grasp any problem that may resent itself. Dispatchers work eight ours a day and are paid in the west from $1,500 to $3,000 yearly, according to their service. A merchant, who had drawn his chair upto the group, told a swrfy of a e in a dispatcher's ofice. He said: “I was sitting in the dispatcher’s office of the Michigan Central road at Jackson, Mich.. some years ago, chatting with a school friend, who was then a conductor on the road. = Everything seemed to_be running smoothly, and the four dis- patchers were throwing a_big ball of paper at each others’ heads. A warn, ing ‘let up’ came from one of them, and the next instant he was gazing thought- fully at his train sheet. He then opened his key and sent an order. It was re- peated to him, and the moment he gave the O. K. and stuck his pen in the rack, bang! came the wad of and the fusilade began again, I arked to my friend that these men acted rather kittenish for men who had so much re- sponsibility, and he replied; ‘You see they have a strain on their minds, and they eut up just such didos to relieve i but their ears are open, and the; every word that comes on the wire.” ** I know a train-dispatcher story that will lay you all out,” put in a commer- cial traveler, *‘I was sitting in the of- fice of the Dixon house in Newton, one afternoon away back in 2878, swap- ping stories with several drummers, when one of them exclaimed: ‘Here comes Blondie, the milliner!” “Naturally thinking there was a pretty woman in the question, we ran to the window, only to see a young man go across the street, carrying asample case in each hand. His hair was us white as snow. ‘There’s a curious case,’ said a shoe man from Chicago. ‘He's one of th icest fellows in the world, but he's itive about his hair, We called him Blondie until one day he told me how his misfortune overtook him. He was a train-dispateher on the Chicago and Al- ton rond and had sent and order for a passenger train to meet the president’s 8 al at o e and then ordered the the meet- ing point. had ~heen reported having left their respective stations five minutes when he picked ap. his order-book and suw his mistake. There was no way to stop them. He sat in his chair, par- alyzed, as he expressed it. Fourteen loads of passengers and a special of an engine and two cars loaded with di- rectors of the road with their friends and ladies were rushing at each other at the rate of thirty-five miles an hour. It was sure death for at least half of the passengers, and total annihilation for the special train. As he sat there he could see the trains approach each other, for he knew every foot of the road; knew exactly where each train was, now rounding a curve, again_cros- sing a bridge, until in his mind’s eye he saw the trains meet in a deep cut. He saw the two engines crash into each other like leviathans of the rail, tele- scoping both trains and piling up the wrecked cars upon each other in an in- descriable heap. He heard the shricks and groans of the wounded, and saw the mangled forms of some- body's beloved ones until the horrible scene became almost too much for his reason. He tried to rise from his chair, but could not. His blood turned hot and cold, and then he felt a prickly sensation at the roots of his hair. He wa ruggling out of his chair to get a drink of water to relieve his faintness, when he heard his call on the sounder. Mechanically he opened the civeuit and responded. The operator at the station to which he sent the order tothe special then informed him that the special had returned on account of not having water enough to carry them to the next tank. “Blondie replied: ‘O. K.; hold them for orders,’ and then fainted away. *‘When he recovered there were sev- eral conductors and brakemen about him who had heard him fall from his chair. He noticed a queer look on their faces and asked why they looked so strangely. One of the brakemen took a pocket mirror and held it before Blondie. He saw that his hair had turned as white as snow. He resigned, and never sentanother train order.” spe Both trains as —— The Pancake Thrower. Chicago Ma The dime museum relic and freak hunters are sorely tried at times to furnish the proprietors with acceptable curiosities. One of these explorers was bewailing his misfortune in the hearing of a shorthand man, who gaveme the report. *‘I haven’t turifed upa good curiosity for three months.

You know how a feller fe when he strikes a good thing, or what he thinks is a good thing.

My boss knew from this that I must hi ug up something rare. for I always strike when I am wi ner. There’s a point for you, my boy. Well, T got u telegram that I could get the raise.

He proved the latter fact beyond a doubt about three years ago. It was a very stormy night, and the ]I‘f“""r“h\' being few and far between, 'om Saw rer decided to close his saloon and retire to his bed in the room above. Jim, a8 unual, was given the freedom of the bar voom for that night and he snugly hied himself away behind a cracker box. Shortly after midnight a burglar broke into the place, and did it 80 noiselessly that Jim, who was old and slept well, did not hear him. he fellow had things pretty nearly hisown way, and he overloaded him- self with cigars and bottles. In endeav- oring to get out again through the win- dow by which he had come in he dropped a bottle, which smashed on the foor. Jim was up in & moment. The burglar’s feet and head had already been thrust out, but what remained stifl within n's reach was grabbed by him with all the spirit he could putin the job. Jim growled and bit, and the burglar yelled and hit. His blows, however, had little effect on Jim, whoheld on un- til his master, Tom Sawyer, came to his I Officer Fitzhenvy also came up by this time, and the burglar, who was alterward recognized as George H.
