How Jim Donnelly
Made a Success.
By EVERETT P. CLARKE
Jim Donnelly, Agent at a small subur
ban railway station, not seeing promo
tion where be was, asked to be trans
ferred to some more promising posi
tion. T-he system was a long one, peu
etrating into what were then the back
woods of North America. The com
pany needed men on the frontier, but
unfortunately those positions were so
unattractive that the employees tiiore
could not be made to hold their places.
Jim was told that be might bare a
passenger train in this region, but was
advised that the people traveling there
were bard to manage, and it was fear
ed that lie would give up the Job after
learning the conditions.
Jim had commenced railroading as a
brakeman. The salary of conductor
was much better than that of agent at
an inferior station, and he decided to
accept the position. Another induce
ment was that if he succeeded In run
ning his train through the lawless dis
trict with regularity bo would be ad
vanced to a higher positloa
The main trouble Jim's predecessors
had experienced was collecting fares.
Thft. people of the country made all
sorts of excuses for not paying their j
way, and if the conductor tried to put j
them off the train they would make a j
fight One conductor had been killed, j
another severely wounded, and others i
had been too frightened to insist on |
getting the fare. All this was explain j
ed to the applicant 1
Jim thought the matter over and 1
made up his mlud that he would fight ,
his way to a mastery of the situation
He would not undertake the job with- I
out seeing It through. The fights the j
conductors had experienced were with {
Individuals, and so long as he was not j
called upon to fight several men at '
once Jim saw no reason why he should i
not stand as good a chance as the oth- 1
er fellow, though he was not a large j
man nor especially muscular. lie was <
quite ingenious and relied on his think- j
Ing powers to provide--ways of collect- ;
leg fares.
Tl™ hn/1 hnnn mnnlllL' hl«5 train SeV- i
era! days without trouble when a '
wild looking man got on at a wilder- !
ness station, and when Jim asked lilra 1
for bis fare the passenger, feeling
through his pockets. Anally took out a 1
dirty paper on which lie had himself I
written a pass. Jim handed it back •
to him with the laconic remark. "No •
good." The man began to berate the j
conductor with his tongue for insult
tag him, at the same time putting hU I
hand to his hip for his revolver. Jim i
put his hand into his outside coat pock
et and, pulling out a rubber bulb, re- !
peated his request for tire fare. The I
man was getting his revolver in posi- I
hn.K '"/J1 'iraW Whe" Jlm P1"™* the
bulb before the j-ascal's face an(,
pressing It. filled his eyes with red pen
per. 1 K 1
Thetrt was a howl, the passenger put
ting his bands to his eyes. Jim, tak
ing advantage of his blindness, made
a grab for his revolver and secured it
Then, pulling the bell rope, lie took
the man by the collar and hustled him
to the door, giving him a kick as he
dropped birn off the train.
The next man who refused to pav
his fare was a countryman, who relied
on his muscle to protect him from being ,
put off the train by the conductor The !
fellow was certainly v^y stron^ and
prided himself on being able to take
care of any man without the use of
arms. When Jim asked him for his
fare he searched for his ticket or pre
tended to do so. then said that he bad
lost it Jim. who understood the man's
game, passed on collecting. When the
train reached the next station he got
out, went to (be baggage car, took a '
£1 °f ° bng' and wbe" the I
train started on went through the cars
again. Comfjig to the man who had
lost his ticket he told him that he
must pay liia fare or get off the train,
whereupon the passenger told him that
If he was strong enough to eject him
he was welcome to do so.
Quick as a flash Jim gripped the I
man's nose with his punch, which held
by means of a couple of sharp projec
tions. The nipped man fought like a
tiger, but every time be struck a blow
Jim pressed the nipper, and in a very
few minutes bis prisoner ceased to
struggle. Jim pulled the bell rope, but
before the train came to a full stop
threw his prisoner into a ditch beside
the road.
Stories of the conductor's novel meth
ods of putting off travelers who refus
ed to pay their fare were spread broad
cast by passengers who witnessed
them and lost nothing by repetition.
The countrymen along the line were
used to fighting with their fists or their
revolvers and were entirely put out of
their reckoning by such unprecedented
methods of warfare. It required but
these two instances to stop the refusal
to pay fares, for after the second ejec
tion no one else cared to take the risk
of running np against some new plan
of the conductor of accomplishing his
purpose.
Meanwhile the railroad was civiliz
ing the people who lived beside it A
respect for law and order was creep
ing in, and public sentiment was turn
ing against the carrying of weapons,
tn other words, the people were be
coming a peaceful farming community.
Jim Donnelly's success in collecting
fares was noted in the general offices I
of the railroad company, and one day |
he received the appointment of divi
slon superintendent
The country through which the line
passes Is now thickly settled, and Mr.
Donnelly Is vice president of the road.
