"The conductor is the truest represen

to do with making the system popular
with the public than lias the president
aud all the directors of the road put
together. Much depends upon his
tact, judgment, courteousness and
personality. His smile and courteous
reply go a great way with patrons. He
is the diplomat of the road and comes
closer to the riding public than any
one else connected with the system.

' nell Friday morning that removed a
piece' of a part of his anatomy and dis
figured him for life. The dog sat
down in the middle of the Q track
watching the Monmouth passenger
come in and failed to move quick
enough. The pilot hit him and rolling
him over and over finally threw him
clear of the rails, excepting about four
inches of his tail which lay on the rail
and the front trucks passed over it.
Louie gathered up his pet and turned
him over to a surgeon with orders to
amputate the tail properly and give
him the best of care, but poor Spot
will make a bum brakeman now for by
the loss of his tail he will have nothing
