If you don't think It rains In New

She was a blue eyed, light haired
little girl, skipping about over a va
cant stretch, of track between two
strings of box car homes In the San
ta Fe yards, now dividing her atten
tion between a rag doll and the
home slie was scooping out of the
dirt for It and now busily conveying
the dirt in an empty tomato can to
another part of her playground.
She was a light hearted, happy lit
tie creature, humming u bit of some
nursery rhyme now and then. A
switch eiiKine whizzed by. making
as much noise as twitch engines cn
She looked un and with a smiie on
her face waved at the brakeman
clitiKlng on the rear of the tender,
who very promptly waved back.
Unconsciously she played while a
passerby slipped up and stood
watching her. She looked at him
with surprise written on her face.
"Who are you? I nwver saw you
before, she said.
Unmindful of the child's (juetIon

Slih Wan at Home.
"Why I live here and ninmma says
I ought to play around close to
home," '
"Tou live here,' 'he Interjected
with much surprise.
"Yea, right there," she said, point-'
Ing to .the nearest box car.
"Ion't you go to school?"
"Me. No, we move about all over
the country." and she swept her lit
tle arm about to convey the vast
ness of her travels. "I don't go to
school, mamma and papa teach
me."
"You all live in the box car?"
"Sure, papa, mamma and rue an'
papa's brother."
"What do you all do?"
"Oh. mamma she coka for a tot
of men and papa, and Fred work."
She was a daughter of the "float
ers." a new class of labor employed
on the western railroads. The nick-
mime given ' them Indicates the kind
of work they do, something here one
week then a Job at the other end of
the division the next week. inus
they float over the division and from
one division to another and on over
the whole road.
Wliere Tliey Oi'IkIimuhI.
The "floaters" appeared simul
taneously on the western roads sev
eral years ago. They were needed to
do work which wa too much for the
average section gang and which did
not Justify sending out a gang or
laborers and establishing a camp.
The "floaters" are at home any time,
and ready to work, all the company
has to do is to hustle tnem to me
scene of action.
Then railroad companies round Jt
to their advantage to keep some
brldse caroenters housed In box cars
and moving over the different divi
sions making what repairs were
needed on the bridges. The little
blue-eyed girl belonged to a bridge
carpenter's family and her mother
conducted a boarding house for the
gang of carpenters.
Homo Life In a Dux Car.
Her home In the box car was aa
cheerful as a busy mother could
make it. It was small of course, and
everything that went Into It had to
be In harmony with the size of It.
One end of the car was curtained
off. It contained the bed. A heat
ing stove stood near the center, a
table was pushed back against one
aide, four chairs were arranged
about In the available space. Fred's
bunk was at the other end, curtained
off. On a shelf were some books
and. an old phonograph.
The walls were papered with old
newspapers and pictures from the
magazines and some old ramuy
photos. Old, lace curtains hung
from the windows. The trunks and
grips were stowed away under the
bed. Such Is a wnite "noaters
home.
In another car Is the dining room.
There Is a long table taking up the
full length of the car, except the
small space for the stove and cook
lng utensils. Benches were on each
side and at each end of the table
Usually the wife of one of the bridge
carpenters cooks for the gang or
part of the number If it la a big
gang.
All Space Is In VsN.
On top of the cars the men carry
the odds and en (is of their trade.
There is a bag for tools and when
It U filled the tops of the box car
homes are utilized for old beams,
sheets of tin. etc.
At the end of each box car home
you are pretty sure to And a wash
tub, and when the home stops on
some aiding for a week or two a
clothes line la strung up from the car
to a convenient telegraph pole and
the family washing Is done.
Then there Is the water barrel,
usually at the end of the dining car
and the supply of fuel for the float
ers In the tool car or distributed in
the coal boxes In the different car
homes.
It Is a nomadic life. Probably here
repairing a bridge one week, now
working on another fifty miles away
the next week. Perhaps they have
the switch yards of a big city for
their home for a month and are
then hustled off up In the moun
tains, miles from any habitation
with a dreary waste of sage brush
clad hills confronting the eye In
every direction. Such Is the life of
the floater.
Duties of a I 'looter.
(Say an Innocent looking arroyo
suddenly becomes a roaring torrent
because of a deluge of rain up In
the mountains and In Its fury it
washes out a railroad bridge. A wire
L sent from the man In authority
to division headouarters. "Send two
engines and 200 floaters."
A short time after the washout
the men are looking on where the
bridge once stood and it Immediate
ly become a scene of activity.
If It Is in a timber country a gang
of men is set to work cutting down
trees, another gang hew the log--',
still another is laying a spur of track
here: the engines are puffing about
placing the timbers where they are
most needed. Piers are built up in
the bed of the stream where the old
bridge once stood and In twenty-four
or forty-eight hours traffic is re
sumed, the temporary bridge Is in
use anil will remain so until a more
stable structure can be erected.
A great many of the floaters.
those that compose the common la
bor class, come from Old .Mexico;
that Is especially so on the Santa
Fe, Southern Pacific and Hock Is
land. In the north they are Japanese
and so on over the country.
One llomlrisl in Ihh1 Yards.
I.asl week there wert probably
one hundred floaters quartered In
the Santa Fe yards In Albuquerque.
three-fourths of them were from Old
Mexico and the rest, the skilled la
borers, were Americans, bridge car
penters mostly.
The laborers from Old Mexico get
from 80 cents to over a dollar a
lav. They have their families with
them and board themselves In their
box cor homes. In camp out on the
road they usually build up a big
rampflre In front of the car and sit
around it In. the evening playing
cards and listening to the music, for
there are always some musicians in
the gang.'.
The bridge carpenters are paid
$2.7(1 a day. The railroad hae
found the "floaters" useful and will
continue to keep them indefinitely.
The "floaters" seem pleased with
their life, a changeful as It Is, and
the fascination of it keeps them in
the service.

PERCY AND Bill
i.
Percy Jones at nine years olH,
Wore Sunday clothes to school.
He always had his hair combed
right,
And never broke a rule.
Percy was his mama's boy.
His hands were nice and clean.
And Percy shunned the bad, bad
TMya,
Who treated him so mean.
Percy never had a dog,
A .-ling shot nor a sled,
He'd rather sit and read
books.
good
When he should be In bed.
But Percy was a model youth,
A regular "teacher's pride."
Much better then the other kids,
Who weren't when they tried.
There was another ragged lad.
Whose hair stood straight on end.
His trousers seats got holes in them.
As fast as ma could mend.
The kids all called the ragged lad
The simple name of Bill,
His other name they did not know
Perhaps they never will.
Ragged Bill could fight his fights.
Played marbles too, for keeps.
He picked on little Percy
Until Percy got the weeps.
But Percy was a martyr true
And scorned to use his mlts;
The kids kept up their teasing
'Till he almost had the fits,
Percy's eyes were big and sad.
Bill's usually black and blue,
And while Percy grew more slender,
BIP gained a pound or two.
Percy grew to manhood.
And became a banker's clerk.
While Bill grew and got married.
And did anything but work.
But Percy's cheeks grew paler,
And he got a hacking cough,
And e'er many days his spirit.
Was wafted up aloft.
They bore him to the graveyard,
A sad and solemn ride,
lilll drove the hearse In silence
And poor Percy was Inside.
II.
The years went round as ever.
Till poor Percy was forgot,
Bill sat In the game of poker.
And by luck he raked the pot.
Then suddenly Bill got bu.-y.
With his strong and robust frame,
He opened up "an office,"
And he quickly made a name.
Ills house was of the finest,
And he owned an auto too,
While the whole town came to see
him,
And asked him what to do.
Cut in tiie little grave yard,
Miilst a lot of finer stones.
Sti oil a modest ihaft of granite.
Hearing simply "Percy Jones."
Bill lives and has his being .
And he likewise has the dough,
Wlile where poor Percy Jones is.
No one x ems to care or know.
When Hill dies he may be worse off,
Tin re are those w ho say he will.
But at the present writing. t
It don't seem to worry Bill.
H- could not take his .money,
Which might make his dying hard.
Hut he knows that If he wants to.
He can own the whole grave yard.

night discussing the recent financial
stringency.

"Never mind, boys," said a pros

Stories That Might Have Happened
i ne omer uay i wrote a mile
paragraph like this:
"Jim Jones leaves tonight for
Magdalena, where he expects to re
side on a ranch. That Is a great
country for cattle."
I don't see anything wrong with
that, but Jim diiL and he came
around to see the editor about It be
fore he left town.
That's the trouble with being the
Cub. N'ow, If they would let me
write up something really worth
while a fellow could have some
show. Just to show you. here's
some stories written up right the
way they do It In New York:
I.
Shocked by the disclosure of a bit
of paper found In her husband's
trousers pocket. Mrs. Julia Snendem.
the beautiful young wife of John
Spendem, a plumber, residing at
4597 Areno Street, fell In a swoon
early today, seriously fracturing her
rignt celluloid side comb, and upset
ting a large bowl of pancake batter
on the family cat. which ran wildly
up the street alarming the neighbors
wno immediately rushed to th
scene.
iNirs. spendem, wno will be re
membered as the beautiful debutan
te of two seasons ago, was sufficient
ly recovered this afternoon to Join
a tallyho party to Isleta, though still
very nervous. Mr. Spendem when
seen today, stated that the unfortun
ate occurrence was due to an over
sight on his part In leaving a twen
