It is understood that dispatchers on
every division of the Burlington lines
west of the river with the exception
of the Sheridan division have peti
tioned the management for an in
crease in pay The management has
repMed that the matter is taken under
consideration and an answer will soon
be made Just why the dispatchers
on the Sheridan division did not peti
tion while others were asking for
more pay is not known
The movement for more pay inaug
uated by dispatchers is country wide
On many roads it has been taken up
by the dispatchers organization while
on other roads the request has been
made individually and by petition It
is understood that very few dispatch
ers in the employ of the Burlington
railroad are members of the organiza
tion On some roads almost every dis
patcher is a member
When the train dispatchers organi
zation was formed it had the effect of
bringing the salaries of men on some
roads that paid below the average
scale up to the average In some in
stances it was not necessary to await
a demand The managements acted at
once and increased the payDispatch
ers get from 125 to 175 a month
It is said that one point urged by
the dispatchers organization is that
dispatchers be recognized as officials
and not as employes merely Many of
the men do not regard this matter as
important enough to insist on

THE TT1UE GASAEIANCA
ZZ CF TKZ CUKMiNG DECK
WAS REALITY
Wns Son cf French Admiral and the
Wan Who Ordered Vessel Blown
Up Wa Corn at Jamaica
Plains
The Boy on the Burning Deck is
not a myth but an actual fact and few
know that the man who gave the order
for the destruction of the vessel on
whose dtci the aioresaid boy stood
was born in Jamaica Plain and lived
there till his roaibt father who ob
jected strenuously to the American
revolution transplanted him to Eng
land where he served under Nelson in
the Battle of the Nile
The boy vao French son of the ad
miral of the French ship Orient and
that was the vessel that blew up with
the immortal boy standing by tho
mainmast
The boys unconscious destroyer
Captain Benjamin Kallowell was borp
in the old Boylston house still stand
ing at the corner of Boylston and Cen
ter streets in Jamaica Plains The
house was built in 172G by the Boyls
tons and afterward passed to tht
rabid royalist Benjamin HallowelL
after whom the captain was named
The old man lived in Jamica Plain
long enough to make himself unpopu
lar when the American revolution
broke out The son had been early
sent to England for his education and
he became one of the seven American
born men to attain distinction in tho
British navy
In the battle of the Nile Captain
Hallowell had command of the ship
Swiftsure which ran down the luck
less 1Orient When Captain Hallow
ell gave the command for the French
vessel to be blown up he knew noth
ing of the thirteen-year-old son of the
French admiral who foolishly but
heroically obeyed his stern fathers
order Dont leave the vessel until I
give you permission and his proud
though childlike form graced the
doomed vessel when she with frag
ments strewed around the sea
Captain Hallowell afterward heard
the sad tale and was much moved by
it The boy called out three times in
agony to his father he learned but
stood resolutely by the mainmast
though his father lay cold in death
So much moved was the captain
that he had a coffin made in the boys
honor out of the floating fragments
of the 1Orient and sent it to his
friend and patron Lord Nelson with
the story of the boys bravery and
expressing deep regret for the young
heros untimely end
Nelson had the coffin placed in the
cabin in remembrance of the boy and
Captain Hallowell himself told the
tale to the then widely known poet
Felicia Hemans Her sympathies
were immediately excited and she
immortalized the boy in her sentimen
ta verses and she named him wisely
Casabianca
Cruel Old Laws
Englands present King George is
spared the mental torture experienced
by the earlier George by reason of tho
numerous cases of capital punishment
for which they had to sign warrants
says the London Chronicle Of George
III for example it Is said that he
kept a register of all the cases of
capital punishment it was then a
capital offense to open without au
thority a letter addressed to another
that he entered in it the names of all
felons sentenced to death with dates
and particulars of convictions to
gether with remarks upon the reasons
which induced him to sign the war
rants It is also recorded that he fre
quently got up at night to peruse the
fatal list and that he shut himself
up closely in his private rooms during
the hours appointed for the execution
of criminals No wonder he went
mad
Story of a Cabinet
The Swedish consul at Marseilles
has received a modest but Interesting
memento in the form of a cabinet for
papers for transmission to King Gus
tav V says the London Globe The
history of the cabinet is interesting
It is made of juniper wood and the
tree was supposed to be a thousand
years old when it was felled It bad
grown on an estate near Marseilles
which had belonged to the Clary fam
ily One of the daughters married
Bernadotte the founder of the royal
house of Sweden Bonaparte it is
said used to enjoy sitting under this
tree Some time before the death of
Oscar II the present king visited the
home of his ancestors and expressed a
desire to possess some souvenir of the
place and the cabinet is the outcome
of that wish
Pater Hated Serpents
Water Pater figures so seldom in
biography that the following glimpse
of the solitary scholar quoted by the
San Francisco Argonaut is specially
interesting During dinner a guest
asked to see a necklace I was wear
ying It was in toe form of a serpent
made of silver wire deftly interwoven
to resemble scales and to make it
sinuous and supple I unfastened the
serpent and as I handed It to Mr
Pater who was nearest me it writhed
in a lifelike manner and he drew
back hfs hands with a slight move-
ment of dislike In a flash I
bered the passage in Marius tho
curean In which the heros dislike to
serpents is so vividly described and
I realized the description to be auto j
biographic

Teeth In Their Stomachs
Whatever it may be that the lobster
and the crab rapacious never dainty
are eating they always see something
else that they want and cant wait un
til they have masticated the first be
fore attacking the second But they
dont give up the first not by any
manner of means Nature humoring
this rapacious bent has fitted the lob
ster and the crab with teeth in their
stomachs and they swallow their half
masticated food and finish the chew
ing process with their stomachs while
they seize and chew the other thing
that has attracted them Lobsters and
crabs have no teeth ir their mouths
They chew with their claws what they
have time to and hand the unfinished
Job down to their stomachs to do the
rest of the chewing
