RAILWAY PASSES.
THoho who best know President New?
ell, of the Lake Shore, says tho Rail?
way Gazette, will best appreciate- a re?
cent exchange of courtesies between
him aud President Caldwell, ol the
Nickle Plate, bow also general man
ager of the Lake Shore. President
Newell would give a mau a $100 bill
and never think twice about it. When
it came to giving passes over the Luke
Shore he was adamantiue in his re?
fusal. Those he did give were so liin
ited to special trains ibat a number of
the officials of the company have never
yet ridden on the limited or fast mail
trains.
It is the custom for all railroad presi
dents to iuterchance annual passes, and
on a recent New Year President New?
ell made up his list of exchange passes
and sent tbem out. Across the end of
the one he sent President Caldwell was
printed in red ink the words: liNot
??ii? on limited fast mail trains."
By return mail came President Calcl
welPs annual pass on the Nickel Plate
(?>r President Newell. Across its face
in flaring red ink and in the bold hand?
writing of President Caldwell were
written the words: '"Not good ou ] as
senger trains."
This recalls the story of the genera!
passenger agent in Philadelphia, or
somewhere, who was wont to limit ex
lieketsso closely that the pas
rs bad to be on the alert in sur
odering the return coupon as soon as
they entered the car ou the return
journey, lest it turn to dust and ashes
in their hands. One day theO. P. A.'s
fish de tier g ?( stuck with one of those
tickets (the conditions being printed in
ine type) and he determined to
? a. So the next lish delivered
lected for its very evident lack of
freshness, and, of course, the cook r< -
ported il to the G-. P. A.; but on close
Lion the wrapping paper was
found to bear, in small letters, the fol
lowing words: "In consideration of the
iced prii e at which this lish is sold,
will aoJ be good after an hour from
the time of delivery."
Bov Attacked by Wild Geese.?
While Edward Cox, aged 13 years, and
a sister, two years his junior, were
passing through a field near Lake Pla
eotitia, Ohio, on their way home from
-chool, Tuesday evening, a large flock
of wild geese settled down near the
children. The lad charged among
them, thinking to put them to flight,
but the whole flock viciously attacked
him, using their bills and wings. The
hoy succeeded in lighting them ofTfor a
short time, wheu be sunk to the
ground exhausted.
The little girl ran screaming to their
home, and when she had told her story
the liov's father and an older brother
hastened to his assistance, hut only stu
ceeding his effecting his rescue aftfr
killing a number of the geese, which
t ten took to flight. The lad's face and
nands were covered with blood, but his
i juries weie not serious.
