MAN IS UNCLE'S
R. R. CDNDUCTOR
Conductor Mullin, who handles the
i tri-weekly mail train from Seward to
Mile 40, contends that the O. W. R.
1 and \\ crew’s report that they spent
thirty minutes getting the safety pins
1 otT the wrappings and putting a ‘nitie
on a baby sent as second class passen
| ger, has nothing on him.
In addition to keep track of passen
gers, freight and mail, between here
and the enu of the run, Mullin per
! forms such little errands as:
Depositing money in the bank for
j anybody and everybody living along
1 the line.
Changing pair of ladies shoes ior
size larger.
Matching a piece of. calico for lady
living 20 miles out who could not
| come in but needed two more yards.
Ordering groceries for tolks at
various stations.
Dropping letters in the box here for
laborers who ask him to “mail this—
put a stamp on it and bring the bal
ance of a two-bit book on the next
trip and I’ll pay you then. I’m out of
change now.”
Leaving orders for meat at the
butcher shops, to be filled on the next
train.
Taking money to pay bills at the
various stores and bring back a re
ceipt.
Now and then something happens
to add to the joy of the job, which in
itself includes making the mushers
desist from smoking in case there is a
lady passenger in the caboose, sort
ing the mail for every camp, and ac
counting for everybody aboard.
Recently an inbound passenger
tendered a U. S. pay check for some
thing like $100 in payment of $1.20
fare. This hud Mullin guessing for a
second, but not for long. He wrote
out his personal check for the change
and tendered it, only to be scornfully
repulsed.
“You don’t bunk me,” declared the
passenger. Cash change or give me
back the check and I’ll pay later.
“You pay or get off right here,
was the reply. About the time things
i were getting good another passenger
smoothed the troubled waters by cash
! ing the “change check.” He inform
ed the skeptical chap with the $100
j check that the conductor was not a
banker but being under bonds was
probably reasonably honest and de
serving of some consideration.
But so far Mullin has not had the
experience mentioned in the follow -
, ing report filed by F. D. Dice, Oregon
Short Line conductor running be
tween Pocatello and Green River:
“Report 1,323.
“Subject—Jacob Zwicker baby.
“Put him to bed in tourist. Took
brakeman and myself thirty minutts
to get the safety pins out of him and
get his ‘nitie* on. When I turned him
over to Union Pacific conductor at
Green river he was greatly refreshed
after good sleep and stomach was full
of food.”
Jacob Zwicker started on a journey
from Tacoma for Wichita, Kan., last
Tusedav, properly tagged, and in
structions were sent head to agents to
look out for the little fellow.

CLAIMS NOT

ADAMS STREET
|
Arguments consumed most oi the
1 time at the council meeting last even
! ing, the piece de resistance being dis
| putes as to the division of expense on
j the Adams street improvement, the
cost of the sewer between 1'iith and
Sixth avenues and whether or not a
' refund should be made to Council
man J. L. Graef for damage sustain
ed when the sidewalk entrance to his
basement was idled by the contraltoi
who graded Broadway.
Graef rendered a bill itemizing
amounts he believed due hipi, which
totaled $GG. After considerable dis
cussion the council voted in favor oi
allowing him a credit of halt that
amount or $•'»•’> on the assessment to* ,
sidewalking and grading in lront oi J
his place of business, which he refus-1
ed to pay pending a settlement.
City Treasurer Konug asked for a
ruling on whether or not ho should
accept payments under protest for the
Adams street improvement. Thi.*
controversy which came up at the last
meeting was reopened and afii* argu
ment the council voted 4 to 2 to allow j
the assessment to stand. The con-1
tention of the majority was that the
property owners should have speci
fied that they wanted the cross walks
and grading of intersections charged
to the general fund, and that to open
the matter now would mean similar j
1 demands for a refund to be demanded
| on other streets.

SAYS IMPOSSIBLE
TO DEAL WITH THE
WAR MAD CHIEFS
LONDON, Feb. 20.—“It is impos
sible for England to make any agree
ment with the German government a?

now constituted,” declared James
William Lowther. “Until the Ger

and throw off the yoke of the war
mad chiefs who sent them into this
struggle there is nothing for the al

WILLING TO TAKE
RESPECTABLE WORK
AT $50 A WEEK
BUTTE, Mont. — (Special) — Be
nevolent workers of Butte are more
willing to help the women of the un
derworld, former residents of Butte’s
segregated district, which has been
closed by order of the attorney gener
al. than they are willing to accept.
Some of the women have said that
they would be willing to accept “re
spectable” work at a salary of $50
a week.
The impression gained is that the
women are remaining in Butte not be
cause they are unable to get away but
H'cause they are hoping for a “let up”
of the moral wave which resulted in
the closing of the district two weeks
ago.
These are the conclusions reached
by workers employed by the Silver
Bow Ministerial association as report
id to that body at its meeting today.
