Promotions on Erie Engines. WILSON IS GETTING EVEN. Erie Magazine Strikes Bark at Policeman Kellly General News of the "Conditions in the mechanical department on the Erie have been beneficial in a manner not considered by many," said one of the younger Erie firemen running on the Chicago Erie Wednesday, in speaking of the recent strike situation, and general condition. "Of course it is known that engines are not In the condition they would be under normal conditions," continued the young engineer. "Many of the older engineers have becomesomewhat leery and make but infrequent trips.

With the engines on the chain gang, that Is in and out again as soon as running repairs can be made at the terminals, the heavy run of freight has made a heavy strain In maintaining a road force. The last three or four years, many promotions have been made among the firemen to engineers. So far this year vseveral classes have been ordered to prepare for examinations and over twenty of the older firemen have been advanced. There are several engineers now on the roster who fired on the C. E.

less than four years. In this section of tho country thi3 is decidedly rapid promotion. "With winter coming on, and the enforcement of the slxteen hour law in Indiana, the condition of the engines and other factors may result in a number of other promotions. This means encouragement to young men who have a liking for railroading. In former" years firemen remained firemen year after year, with but little assurance of advancement.

"There has been considerable comment on cheap engineers and cheap firemen depreciating the road service, meaning, as it does, a slam on the young engineers. The young man of today who sits on the right side of an engine cab is there by right of his knowledge of motive power. A fireman who is a candidate for promotion is required to pass examinations that are more stringent than civil service tests. His practical knowledge of mechanics must be accompanied by no little book learning. No insinuations are to be cast upon the older C.

E. engineers, for they are a sterling lot. Many who operated the first trains over the tracks of the local road are still in service, and their service records stand." WILSON STRIKES BACK. A noticeable fact about the Erie depot In Huntington Is the absence of cuspidors. Genial old Matt.

Wilson, custodian of the Erie terminal buildings many years, took exceptions to outside assertions that the "spit boxes" in the depot were not tary and under cover of a city ordi nance removed them and there now appear prominently a of plac cards in bold type warning the public not to spit upon the floors. Condi tlons are chronicled in the October issue of the Erie Employees' maga zlne in the following manner: "Things are done queerly in Indl anan. The state is 'full of officials and the officials are full of mischief. Petty officers are on every hand Bur charged with zeal to do something to attract public notice. It don't Beem to matter much hat; is they do, just so it attracts attention.

At first it was state railroad inspectors. Now they seem to have withdrawn In favor of state inspectors of sanitation. These representatives of the health department condemn everything. A cuspidor six hours in use looks like a tubercular epidemic In their eyes. No cuspidors are to be found around the passenger station at Huntington.

They were there once upon a time, and were kept as clean as possible by Janitor Matt Wilson, who has kept things shining there for twenty five years, and whose reputation for cleanliness in his work is not local only. Neatly lettered placards now request travelers not to expectorate on the floor." GENERAL NOTES. The Pennsylvania people say their New York limited made another record last Sunday, when the train reached Altoona thirty five minutes late and the time was made up between that city and Pittsburg. When it Is considered that the average speed of the limited is the fastest of any train on the road, It is evident that when it starts to make up time it goes some. The trainmen state that was the fastest ride they ever experienced ocer that road, a speed of eighty five miles an hour being reached for some distance.

The new inbound freight house of the Wabash at St. Louis, containing 83,585 square feet of floor space, will be opened for business November 1. In addition to freight houses for handling inbound and outbound freight of all kinds, plans have been Approved for a perishable freight station with cold storage to receive and deliver all classes of perishable business. When these are completed, the Wabash, It Is stated, will have the most complete freight station lay out in the west 1 The best drawing card for through EVENING HERALD. FACE 8ETEI.

business to Philadelphia the Baltimore ft Ohio ever had, a stopover in Washington, has been relegated to history. Instructions have been received by ticket agents that on tickets to Philadelphia and Baltimore the old stopover will not be allowed, and ticket purchasers, are to be so advised. Thl3 phase of the Baltimore Ohio's passenger business has become well known, and many who wont east went by this road in order to get the extra visit to Washington. People who have enjoyed these privileges are making a strong kick against the new arrangement. On October 24 at Indianapolis the state railroad commission will decide the question of granting the B.

C. railroad permission to cross the tracks of the Lake Erie in Bluffton. It seems that they can do nothing other than grant the request of the new road, if, of a fair settlement is made with the other company. BRIEFER MENTION. Charles Elvin of the master mechanic's office is on the sick list.

Arthur Ellis, Edward James and Obedlah Kltt are new Erie carpenters and Carl Pashong has accepted a position as chair painter. Quinsy, Sprains and Swellings Cured. "In November, 1901, I caught cold and had quinsy. My throat was swollen so I could hardly breathe. I applied Chamberlain's Pain Balm and it gave me relief in a short time.

In two days I was all right," says Mrs. Cousins, Otterburn, Mich. Chamberlain's Pain Balm is a liniment and is especially valuable for sprains and swellings. For sale by Bradley Bros. CROWDS ARE GROWING LARGER.

When the Quaker Health Teacher arrived ia Youngstown, Ohio, where he Is now introducing the famous Quaker Herb Remedies, he said that before he had been there many days, crowds from all directions would come to see him and he certainly has kept his word. Ever since his arrival In that city there has been a continuous stream of people flowing lu the drug store where he is located. He speaks to each person who calls and as a consequence has made a great number of friends. He ia so sincere, honest and interested in each person's health that he has gained the confidence of everybody and a number of people have concluded wisely to try the Quaker Herb Remedies to be cured of their suffering. Quite a number of people also called to report results S9mmmmmmmmmmmmm mm mmm hum inwiiBimnwm rP FIELD A.

SHORT. Courtesy InJIauapolls News. after using the remedies only a short time. Mr3. MoeschI, 2014 Vine Cincinnati, Ohio, said: "My son Stanley, aged three years, suffered in a very peculiar manner during the past eleven months.

He was restless In his sleep; would roll and toss, grit his teeth, bite his finger nails, pick his nose and instead of growing rosier and healthier, grew paleand puny. Quite often he acted as though he were about to take a spasm. Sometimes he would have choking sensations and cramping spells. I called at the drug store and obtained a bottle of Quaker Herb Extract and gave the child a teaspoonful morning and evening for three days and this morning he expelled quite a number of round, long worms, which the Health Teacher pronounced fit worms. His appetite has returned and he eats like an entirely different boy.

I realize that these worms were the cause of his troubles and this cause having been removed by Quaker Herb Extract, he is now in perfect health." Space will not permit the publication of more testimonials today. This should be enough to convince everybody that the Quaker Herb Remedies cure. Do not delay any longer. If you are suffering, but obtain these remedies at once. Quaker Herb Extract 11.00 per bottle, three for Quaker Oil of Balm 25 cents per bottle.

ISLE OF SPICE." Absolute novelty is what Is claim ed for tho construction of that delight ful gloom dlspelllng musical extrava ganza, "Isle of Spice," which appears at the Huntington tonight. Ensemble numbers are marvels of stage man agemeat and the realms of modern stage invention havo been ransacked to their utmost ends to properly mount the production. The result Is a production of dazzling splendor and artistic stage pictures and dances. A feature of the presentation Is the work of the twelve little girls of the "broiler" type, conspicuous In "Un cle Sam's Marines." "The Goo Goo Man," "The Broomstick Witches" and "Peggy Brady."

with his grotesque makeup, plays the role of "King Bompopka." "BILLY, THE KID." "Billy, the Kid," which comes to the Huntington Friday evening, Is advertised in a 'novel manner.

A certain resident of the city one day this week took the cards for the real article and made extended comment on the boldness of such an outlaw. "THE SEMINARY GIRL." The attraction at the Huntington Saturday, matinee and night, will be Raymond's rollicking musical comedy, "The Seminary Girl," full of catchy music and pretty chorus girls In a bewildering array of stii(nnlng nocturnes and a series of clever specialties. The story of the play is so full of intricacies and humorous incidents that there is noli a thill moment during the entire evening.

The situations, climaxes, are interspersed with catchy music and ensemble niim lers. The production is handsomely mounted and a cast of unusual merit has been engaged, headed by D. L. McGrath In his original rolo of "Daf fy Dun."
