Sao llAUiidit, Mny 10. This is n very
ensy plnco to llvo In, It is nil ntlngo in
Sag Ilnrlwr thnt everybody Rota nlong
somehow whether thoy work or not,
Theru is one gentleman hero who runs n
weekly paper. It is 0110 of tho oldest
papers In tho country. Sometimes tho
editor is hero, sometimes ho is not for n
year or more. Sometimes his son runs
it. Sometimes tho printers do. Some
times It runs itself or seems to; but it
gets there nil tho snmo. .And It Is not n
bad pnper cither. If n ninn hero makes
up his mind when young thnt ho won't
work for n living nnd keeps it so inmlo
up ho gets nlong somehow, though how
nobody exactly knows, nnd It's doubtful
if ho docs himself. There's n iiosltlve
genius hero for getting nlong In nn easy,
Infornml, doti't-enre-n-ccnt sort of way.
I was In n pnint shop hero tho other
day. The proprietor wns boosted up
ou tho top of nn empty box near tho
store. It wns hnlf past 10 In tho morn
ing. Around him wero sovcrnl of tho
town's peoplo who rnrely Imvo much
clso to do nt half past 10 of n spring
morning snvo keep themselves easy,
talk tho thing dver, tell how tho unt
voreo ought projKirly to bo wound up
nnd kept in running order or how tunny
cola wero caught in tho "covo" yester
day, or who is going to got nmrried nnd
why thoy should not get married. A
man entered in a hurry (qui to nn un
usual thing hero), and said: "Is my paint
ready?" "What paint?" nsked tho pro
prietor, without moving from his box.
"Why," said tho customer, "Icnmo hero
ttj linlf Past 7 this morning and told
your clerk nil fibout It iwl hW I wanted
K Stood."
"You did, Uoy?' replied" tho proprietor".
"Well, I should llko to know what busi
ness my clerk had to open (his shop at
such nn unearthly hour as half past 7 In
tho morning." Uy this timo ho had got
off hla box and commenced leisurely to
bestir himself regarding his customer.
"What kind of paint do you want?" ho
asked. "Red," replied tho customer.
"What do you want red paint for?" "To
paint carriage wheels." "IIow many?
Ono carriago wheel?" "No, four wheels,"
said tho customer.
"You see," said tho proprietor, ad
dressing himself to tno, "wo do busi
ness In Sag Harbor with dignity. Wo
don't jump around and hurry front our
seats as they do In Now York when a
customer comes in. Wo wait, and if
ho's in a hurry giro him timo to cool off."
By this time tho customer had fallen
in with tho cliat of tho party nnd seemed
to havo forgotten hla hurry. As I turned
to loavo tho proprietor followed mo out.
Ho hadn't finished mixing tho paint and
seemed in no hurry to finish. Ho stood
by tho f rou,t door nnd discoursed in this
vein: "That man I'm putting this order
up for was off his center when ho canio
in here. Ho was in n hurry. That's a
stato of mind wo don't encourago in this
town. You seo how easy and comfort
able ,ho is now. Ho thought whon ho
caino in ho wanted to paint that carriago
today. But ho doesn't Ho won't paint
it today. Ho'u got too much senso, now
that ho's got some company and is com
fortably fixed in tho store, to do any
painting today. Nobody acts in that
way if wo can help it,
"Now I was born hero; I haven talwnyB
lived here; I wish I had. I lost twolvo
years of my Hfo by going away I I was
for n part of that timo boss of tho paint
ing department in ono of tho biggest
carriago factories in Now York city. I
got big wages, worked early nnd into,
was full of euro nnd responsibility, took
little ca6o or 'comfort, and at tho end of
each year found myself no better off
than at thu end of tho Inbt. I
got sick of it at last, nnd camo
back to Sag Harbor. I found icoplo
hero who, during all tho timo I had been
away, had done next to nothing, and
wero about as well oil as I. Thoy had
small shops, did a two cent business,
owned their skiffs, and if thoy pleased
shut up thoso shops and went fishing or
sailing or blackberrylng or beach plum-
ining in 1110 summer. 1 saut to myself:
'Hero is liberty, if thero isn't bo much
monoy.' I pitched in and did likewise.
Now I can llvo in a house, with somo
land and grass to step on, and not in tho
sixth story of a rabbit hutch, called u
tlat, really n tenement houso in disgulso,
"Hero I have somo air fit to breathe,
somo water fit to drink, lots of clean salt
water to bathe- in and a flno country to
look ou from my windows. I can shut
up shop when I pleaso, and if n customer
comes and I'm going out sailing and
haven't tho timo to wait on him I can
tell him to go somowhero else."
So he talked ou. His customer seemed
to havo forgotten what ho had como for
in such n hurry, and had harmonized
with the group insido.
The leading town tailor gavo mo in
similar vein his cxperlonco thus:
"Yes, I went to Now York years ago,
and wns boss cutter of a big firm thero.
I stood it for four years. I worked my
self nearly to death, got nioro monoy
than I can nmko here, had no time to
myself, couldn't go a-flshlng nor smell
any clean salt water, bo I Bald ono day to
my employer, Tin going to retire from
business and go to Sag Harbor to llvo.
-"Whatl" Bald ho." 'Rctlrel You ro
tlro from business! Why, I'vo been
working llko n slavo here for over twenty
years nnd 1 haven't timo nor monoy
enough yet to retire on.'
"'Well, l havo," I snld; TvogotflOO
clear, and I'm going to Sag Harbor
again. I'vo got a small houso there, and
I'm going to buy a boat and do somo
tailoring nnd bouio fishing and somo ber
rying.' And 1 do. I'm at liberty hero
vrhon I wish to leavo tho shop and go in
tho woods and take a walk. That's
worth $50 a month to me clear. Now
York to mo wns u prison, I got moro
monoy for staying in it, to bo sure."
"But I can't stay In n prison oven If I'm
well paid for It. In Nuw York you may
mako moid money, but you havo less
privllegtrv Here you havo moro privi
leges nnd less money. What's tho dlllcr
enco whether you get inonoy or what
money will buy? I had to pay rather
expensively in Now York for an occa
sional snlll of country nlr, if not in act
ual money in timo and strongth It re
quired to reach a place where any was
to bo had. Heru I haro It all tho timo,
Indoors and out,"
"When nro you going to bring tno thnt
straw?" I heard one man say to another
yesterday in an expostulatory tone, as If
lie hail been Impatiently watting somo
timo for snld hay,
"1 1) git It to you somo timo or other
If I llvo long enough," was tho reply.
Then tho impatient man seemed to for
get his Impntlonco vegnrdlug straws, and
tho two leaned their backs against tho
side of a houso in tho sun and fell Into
that easy, quiet, dreamy stato which
Bcetns begotten of tho nlr In this plnco.
It require for n now comer n fow
mouths to touu him down to tho tako-lt-
easy atmosphere prevalent hero after ho
has lived in tho sharp, hurry up, rigid
und punctual routlno peculiar to somo
other towns. A now settlor ono day or
dered from his butcher early In tho
morning a supply for thnt day's dinner,
to bo taken to his house, Tho cook
wnlU'd, nntl In vnln. Twolvo o'clock
camo nnd no butcher's wagon. Tho
family dined on yesterday's relics. Tho
head of the family wont down In tho
ovonlng to tho butcher's fuming.
"Why wasn't my dinner eont as I or
dered this morning?" ho fiercely nsked,
"Why, wasn't It sent?" Inquired tho
butcher, with nn expression of amused
surpriso.
"Sent! Why of course It wasn and
wo had no dinner," was tho reply.
"Well, 1 declaro now well, really"
replied tho butcher "well Oh! I'll
tell you why It wasn't sent," ho said at
last, ns If ho had mado nn ngrccablo dis
covery, ''You see, I wanted to tako my
vlf06ut forarldotoPrMgohompton and
I forgot Itl"
TJipn bo seemed" to feel tlint everything"
had been satisfactorily accounted for to
all parties concerned.
Tho stranger is now drilled and disci
plined, and when ho orders a roasting
plcco for today always makes up his
mind that ho mnst bo content if It does
not como till to-morrow.

Special Correspondence
New YortK, May 10. Coming into
Jersey 6lty tho other day on thoErlo
road, my attention was attracted to a
norvous, wiry man of forty, or there
abouts, who sat n littlo way in front of
mo. From tho car window ho closely
Inspected each station houso, bridge, cul
vert and pieco of rolling stock, as wo
moved along. "Know him?" asked tho
gentleman who shared tho seat with mo.
"His name is W. J. Murphy, and twenty
years ago ho was n telegraph operator .at
a small station back on tho Susquehanna
division of tho Erio. Now ho is general
supcrintcndcnt.of tho road, and draws a
salary of $10,000 n year."
This is only ono Instance in many.
Among tho oillcers of nearly overy rail
road in tho country aro to bo found men
who havo risen from tho very lowest
round. A. M. Tucker, who is n division
superintendent on tho Erio under Mur
phy, Btartcd in ns a track laborer anil
his first promotion was to the position of
rodmnu in tho engineer corps. John N.
Abbott, of tho Western States Passenger
association, used to bo a freight clerk on
tho Erie. C. W. Bradloy, general super
intendent of the West Shoro, used to bo
a brakemau and conductor on tho
samo road. General Superintendent
Bancroft, of tho Denver nnd IMo
Grande, learned tho Morso alphabet
in one of tho small stations on tho
Erio find counted himself lucky when ho
obtained a position as telegraph oierator
on tho West Shore. President Caldwell,
of tho Nickel Plato, was onco n clerk ou
tho Pennsylvania. F. K. Hain, general
manager of tho Now York clovated
roads, began his career In hispoventccuth
year as n machinist's apprentice on tho
Philadelphia and Reading road at Potts
villo. Tho oillcers of tho great Pennsylvania
system, from tho president down, havo
all come up from tho bottom. President
Roberts entered tho servico of tho road
in 1833 as rodman In tho engineer corps.
Later ho had charge of tho construction
of small branch lines, and finally was
mado assistant to tho president in 1802.
Ho has been president of tho- road for
eight years. A. J. Cassatt, formerly
vico president of tho company, also bo
gan as a rodman. Second Vicu President
Thomson . used to bo a machinist in tho
shops at Altoona. Ho invented tho block
signal interlocking switch. General Man
ager Pugh commenced as brakeman, and
General Passenger Agent Carpenter was
onco messenger boy in tho Philadelphia
ofllco of tho company. General Agent
Geer used to Imj receiving clerk in tho
freight department.
James McCrca, general manager of
tho Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg,
liko President Roberts, began us rodman
at $10 a mouth. Ho now draws a salary
of $15,000 a year, nnd Is still under 40.
Robert Pitcnirn, superintendent of tho
Pittsburg division of tho Pennsylvania
and general agent for tho company, was
once a messenger boy in thq old Atlantic
and Ohio telegraph olllce in Pittsburg,
Among the other messengers employed
at that timo was Anson Stager, after
wards general superintendent of tho
Western Union Telegraph company; W.
O. Hughart. now president of tho Grand
Rapids and Indiana Railroad company;
Andrew Carnegie, who a few years later
laid tho foundations of his wonderfully
successful career as privato secretary to
Col. Tom Scott, nnd David McCargo, now
genoral suerinteudent of tho Allegheny
Valley railroad.
