His requests were courteously com- plied with by Mr. Wells, who repeated the demand the thivd time with the utmost d liberation, and the superintendent respect- fully but 'firmly declined to comply. “Mr. Wells, evidently had but little hope that the requiest would bring forth the desired action, and he v d to the doorw and held @ whispered consultation with the other mem- bers of the board.

A very exciting opisode occurred on the corner of Scott streot and Broadway just be fore the close of busiuess last evening., The episode consisted ofa very handsome young lady using herumbrellain the fashion thata firstclass baseball batter handles his bat when he makes a three-bagger, The ball that was so energetically butted was the nd redhead of aclerk at L. H, Moss- s clothing store. The young ludy learned tthe clork had been saying some uncom- imentary things about her, which were not simply diaphanous but slanderous, She called to see him atthe store, and the young man asked herto step to the door and then quietly turned the corner and started down Seott street. The young ludy stopped him about midway of the building and a long and earncst colloquy ensned. It was terminated abruptly by o voung lidy suddenly folding her umbrella and poundiug the young man vigorously over the head. The young man did not try to defend himself, but sought safoty inflight. The youug lady pursued him fnto the stairway of the Sapp block and he only escaped by gotting into the elevator and closing the door, which lockson the in- side, and then the thoroughly exasperated voulg lady endeavored (o prod him with her umbrella through the meshes of the wire caze.

How They Manipalaty the Crank and Bell Register, REGULARS, RELIEF SWINGS AND STUDENTS The Hours of Luhor, Pay and Respon= sibilities of the Mortals Who Man Omaha’s Motor Cars. The 35 men who operate electric street railways in Omala in the capacity of motor men and conductors, strictly speaking, are ereatures of evolution, Most of ti=n are men who, in times gone by, pulled tie lines over the old horse car mules of the past. As soon as the clectric lines were put in - opera- tion the bob-tail cars wore relezated to the rear and the drivers were pr o) to the position of motor men and o . "These menave divided into ccotws, lun vins Hrog- ulars,” “swings,” ‘“‘meal roliefs” and “stu- dents.” As is well known, a crew consists of a con- ductor and a motor man, Whena crow ente company he s taken on aays is known as a the sorvice of the trial, and for seven student.”” He runsout lar trainmen, operating the motor crank or pulling the bell punch, accordingly as he desives to become a motor man or con- ductor. If,at theend of that time, ho dis- plays the average ability, his name is placed onthe p oll and he becomes an extra, catching a train whenever a regulur man is off duty. In the matter of reporting for work the day aswellus all other men are required 1o be at the power houses, from which the respective trains depart, at least fifteen minutes before the train is scheduled to leave. he early men are at the power houses at m., where thoy register, after which tho condudtor reselpts for and 'Is given his bell puncn and the motorman his implements for the operation of his car. The two men then air to the car sheds, when they sweepout and dust their cars and wlen the bell in the power house taps the hour for starting, they push their train out into the yards and are awa; Other men continue to drop in at intervals of ten minutes until 11 o'clock, when tk trains are all out, catching the héavy traftic of the These carly-hour men run their trains until m., when the “dinner relief” begins touppear, and from that time until 2:30 p. m. in the afternoon the regular crews are re- lieved in the order in which they went on hours off for the midday meal. They then go back on their trains and run till 4:30 p, m., when asimilar relief is- undergone to enable the men to get theiv suppers, At 645 the trains are pulled off in the orde they went on in the morning, the rule being out, first in. This manner of running enables the rezular men to average nine and the others eight and thre hours per day. They are paid 2 cents per hour while out on the line. The “swing’ crews are composed of the men who make the early and late runs, tak- ing the first trains in the morning and the last at night To induce the men to alw inflexible rule is in force when a man is not at the pmmnmn minutes before his train is scheduled to star heloses the day and his train is handled U an “extra’” The samo rule :Ia)ml cas and if one is not on hand and registered eady to o out, should oceasion demand, he 1oses his position as to seniovity and goes to the foot of the list, thus placing his chunces forsecuring a regular train some distance in the dim future. Much has been said and written about the iron-clad contract which the men ave com- pelled to sign before entering the employ of the company. but an inspection of it shows that itis a very ordinary affair, differing but little from othér contracts that' employes ave required toenterinto, It provides that fif- teen days’ pay shall be held back to cover damages wilfully done to the property of the company, and that due care Il baexercised in performing the work required. To obtain agoodidea of & motorman’s work, take a trip over the line and watch for results, The train is shoved out from the power house; the motormau puts four standard car- bon brushes, five fuses, a pair of pliers and a serew-driver into a tool-box underthe front seat. The bell is sounded, and after releas- ing the brake and giving the crank over the armature box on the front end of the motor turns to the vight, the train moves out. The conductor stands on the platform and is mon- arch of all he surveys, as he is in full charge of the train, At each crossing the motorman_ sounds his gong, not because he wants to do so, but, because it is a rule of the company. The motorman watehes for passen- gers, and makes an_ attempt to run his train on time and keep the regulation speed, which is ten miles per hour through the residence and six miles per hour through the business portion of the He watches for obstrue- tions on the track and helps the conductor eject passengers who will not pay. The conductor collects fares whenever p: n, and works indu triously to make the fizures on his bell-puncn correspond with the fures, passes and trans- for tickets handled. Y1t is o great life,” said a conductor, “and while it is shorn of many of the dangers, it takos on many of the exciting features of rail- roading, Jow, we have lots of experiences and many chances to study human nature in_all of it3 varied forms, but things are not as bad as they were one yeav ago, o you know that when the electric started, the people in Omaha kuew anything about street cars { They had an idea that wo were still running the old bob-tails, and thought we could stop at any place on ‘thestreet. The 'y also thought that it was as easy to geton or off a train running at ten miles per hour asof one pulled along by an antiquated mule. They paid no atten- tion to our signs that caution people about moving trains, but we are getting them edu- cated, and every leg that we amputate makes the lesson more clear and ea “Every time we kill a man or cut off a leg agreat iowl goos up about the carelessness of the trainmen. but, upon investigation, it is re not at fault. “We find the kicker and have to contend with him every bour in the day. First, he ro running too fast; then that ve are running too slow, But you know we can’t suit everybody, and if we suit the com- pany and draw our salary, I think we are doing pretty well, A\v, thanks, I don’t care fora cigm i can’t smoke, forit is oneof the rules that no smokiug is allowed while on duty. “As I was saying before, we have trouble with passengers, and T am'sor say that we frequently have'considerable dificulty with the ladies. They ave aqueer lot. They will stand on a corner and look into a show window until the train passes and then make ar awful fuss becanse we did not stop and tell them they wanted toride. »f them get mad because we will not carry their dogs on the train, Only the other day a lady wa going to report me because 1 would not allow her dog toridein the car, It beats all how much some people think of their dogs, but rules are ruies, and dogs can't vide with me. “Iwant to tell you of a funuy experience I had the other day.
