Paducah , Tennessee & Alabama Railroad Company , office of president. Paducah , Ky. , May 23 , 1892. Mr. W. J. Hills is hereby ap pointed superintendent of this company , vice Mr. W. E. Daucliy resigned. Effective May 25th , 1892. T. H. PUKYKAK , President. W. J. Hills , portrait and personal sketch of a rising young railroad man. Mr. W. J. Hills entered the railroad service as night operator at Lansing , Mich. , for the Michigan Central railroad at the age of 15 years , he was successively appointed to day operator , extra agent , and agent at Columbiaville , Mich' , an important station on that road , which position he held until 1SS2 , when he resigned to seak his fortune in the west. He was appointed agent of the Burlington and Missouri Rtver railroad company in the then new state of Nebraska in the spring of 1883. His sterling business qualities were soon recognized by that company , and he was soon promoted to the position of train dis patcher , which he held until the Paducah , Tennessee and Alabama secured his ser vices upon the opening of their road. Mr. Hills has held the position of chief train dispatcher and assistant superintendent of the company , and to his efforts is largely due the success and popularity of the road. His promotion to superintendent is a deserving one. He is now but thirty-one years of age , and is probaly the youngest superintendent of a railroad in this country. He has made many friends since he has been in Paducah , both personally and for his road No young man has a more promising future before him. Paducah Standard. Happy Hoosiers. Wm.
