ASSELL NEARLY

SEVENTY YEARS YET HE REFUSES TO GIVE UP HIS PLACE ON THE PANHANDLE. Ml DFTHE BEST ENGINEERS $75,000 Eye-Sight and Hearing Are Excellent. Among the locomotive engineers of an old established trunk, line, there are always to be found some .eccen-. trie characters. All along the Pennsylvania, especially from Columbus to Indianapolis, on "the Southwest Kystem, "Old" Charley Cassell, the grey-bearded driver of some of the fastest trains on the roadis known as one of these. - Cassel' h'is been with the Pennsylvania since the early days of railloading, and although he is now aln r.st seventy years of age and the oldest engineer on the road, he is considered far too valuable a man to Tit on the retired list. And if they should attempt it, no one w-vj'O he more against it than Cassell himtelf. He is sound physically, his

rvrsight and hearing are better than !f tfae IndianapoIis & Ihose of the average man of thirty, terd but we are a rnd he has the distinction of never,,- w- anA iha

l iving been in an , accident of any kind. Cassell's home is in Columbus, O., and he is reported to be worth about $75,000. He owns considerable real estate but he believes that his days ff usefulness on the Pennsylvania rre not yet over by a good many years,-and he won't quit to live a comfortable easy-going life the rest of his existence. He is known by every employee on the road, and is the friend of them all. T. G. BEYLAIID WAS HERE IS GENERAL FREIGHT AGENT OF C. C. & L. RAILROAD. His Rise in Railroad Circles Has Been Very Rapid Began as Stenographer. T. C. Beyland, acting general freight agent of the C. C. & L. was in Ilichraond yesterday looking after the freight business of the road. Mr. Heyland was only recently appointed to this position and is making a tour of inspection of the larger cities along the lino, with a view of increasing the freight traffic. Mr. Beyland, who was formerly of this city had a phenomenal rise in the railroad world. He commenced with the C. C. & L. when the offices were in Richmond, in the capacity of sten ographer in the freight department. ' "While in this position he learned the freight business thoroughly and was Inter made chief clerk to the General Freight Agent. "When the management of the road was turned over to President Bradford by the C. H. & D., there was 'no head to the freight department, and Mr. Beyland was appointed. , The freight business of the road is improving rapidly, according to Mr. Beyland and the yards at both ends of the line are busy handling the cars. Clarence Flatter, Pennsylvania yard clerk, returned home yesterday from a short visit to Union City and New Madison.

All IMPORTANT CHANGE

CONTEMPLATED ON TIME BLE OF THE C. C. & L. TARate t0 Cincinnati Will be Lowered to Conform to New Pan Handle Fare. There is to be an important change C, u, ih" changes have not yet been made pub lie. It is expected that better ser vice between points in Indiana and Cincinnati will be installed. The rate to Cincinnati will be changed to conform to the low rate which the Pan Handle will start with, on March 10. The C. C. & L. road makes the trip to Cincinnati by a route twelve miles shorter than does the Pennsyl vania, unci the loss in mileaee will not greatiy affect the C. C. & L. ' . EXPECT A BIG BUSINESS riVivmt'nit t.tnt! TmpWn COMING SUMMER SEASON. J """ Indiana and Eastern Traction Line Thinks it Can Drive Ont Railroad Competition. "Plans for summer excursions have not yet been f ormulated, ' ' said Asistant Superintendent A. Gordon, Eastern,' yesarranging for a big business, and there will be more electric railway rates next summer than ever before." Interurban roads will have more competition in Ohio than ever before but in Indiana, it is expected that better excursions can be conducted on electric lines than on the steam roads, especially in point of service, as electric cars make the runs at shorter intervals and are more popular than the steam excursion train with its cinders and dirt. Electric cars can be operated cheaper and it is probable that steam road excursions will be almost things of the past, (especially when the roads are paralleled by electric lines. IHTERURBAIIS MUST HUSTLE TO KEEP UP WITH THE STEAM ROADS IN OHIO. Two Cent Fare Will Reduce Steam Road Rate Electric Lines to Improve Service. Electric lines . will have to hustle to keep up with the steam roads in Ohio, after the new rate law goes into effect. One instance is in the run from this city to Dayton. The fast Pennsylvania trains make the trip in one hour. At the rate of two cents a mile, the fare will be about eightyfive cents. On the interurban limited cars, which make the trip in about an hour and one-half, the fare is ninety-five cents. This fare will have to be dropped to meet the steam rate and it probably will be within a short time. ......... The interurban officials say that while the cut in rates will hurt some it will not affect them greatly, as they piit oil better service. RAILROAD NOTES Col. Bill Shaw, general agent of the C. B. & Q. was in the city yesterday. President Ingalls, of the Big Four, said recently in an interview that when the new rate law goes into effect in Ohio, the companies may take steps toward charging extra for baggage. One railway journal in a recent issue facetiously remarked that now that the Ohio Legislature had passed the two cents rate bill, it would pass bills making roads run three trains a day each way on every road WHERE TO PLACE YOUR BIG IE NOT ALREADY USING OUR

requiring passengers to always carry 150 lbs. of baggage, requiring the roads to put up signs of warning all along the right of way and do other unnecessary things. In a recent issue of the Railway Gazette, President Bradford, )o the C. C. & L. is quoted as saying j.that the earnings are aiow ' suffici&U to meet operating expenses' and that the

line is earning- as much as-Jt,; did when it was leased to the C. H. & D. "We have instructed our rate department to make up the new tariffs for Ohio in consequence of the twocent rate," said Col. Samuel Moody, general passenger agent of the Penn sylvania lines West, "and we shall be ready for the new rate easily by the time the law becomes effective on March 8. We are not oinr to make any fight. We are doing it cheerfully." The diplomatic and genial . colonel seemed not at all perturbed by the new rate law for Ohio; he simply took the matter in his good way of the old saw, "Grin and bear it." He was not looking for technalities. The Ohio legislators were not rare men. The colonel did not say this' or even bint it, but this fact is shown in their not specifying certain very import ant things. They secured the one principal thing that they wanted 2 cents a mile in Ohio. ' Threatened disruption of the mili tary traffic rules of the trunk lines has been averted by a narrow "mar gin, all competitors of the Pennsylvania finding it to their best interest to unite in opposition to the Pennsylva nia. Friction has been caused by the action of that road concerning the transportation of troops from New York City to San Francisco en route to the Philippine Islands, and at one time serious disturbances was threatened, but the other members of the pool appreciated that this would be disastrous and provoke a rate war that would be highly detrimental to all concerned, so they put their heads together and decided to stand solid in pursuing a course which it was thought would discipline the Pennsylvania and deprive it of any of this class of business for a long period.

TALKS ON POLO SAW A GAME AT CINCINNATISAYS IT IS WORSE THAN -; PUGILISM. , -- THINK FOOTBALL BAD ENOUGH But Has To Take His Hat Off to Polo It Made His Hair Stand on End. New York, Feb. 12. Terry McGovern has decided to train at Johnson's road house,, and will start his real work for the, contest this week. He has finished his theatrical work, and when interviewed told the writer that he would rest up for a week before he went into training quarters. Terible Terry tells of game he wit nessed in Cincinnati last week that to his mind is the most strenuous sport of any in this country. It is called roller polo, and compares it with football and fighting as follows: "Fighting is a hot game and bad enough; football is even a warmer game, and strenuous enough to please the most ferocious, but I'll take off my hat to roller polo. That game is the fiercest of all. a. v o a givat u ujv uut iuj j uu they go at it. Every minute I thought somebody about ready to take the count. The sudden rushes and swoops they made had my hair "landing a n est on en i and many a time I th"u.'l, I seen nobody's lin18k "The r.'i lor me c iv time. I always feel i Jat I have a fnir chance in the squared circle. F.ven if my opponent wishe to take an ;:nfair advantage, be is certain to be detected. Referees don't have to guess at ihinffs when they act as ar biter at a fight. "I wouldn't play football myself, but I think that if I had to choose between that game and roller polo, I would jump at the chance of getting into a gridiron contest."

COLUMBIA IS REWARDED

FOR ABOLISHING GAME OP FOOTBALL-A DONATION Of $150,000 Made by Mrs. Williamson Said to Refer to Action of Faculty, in the Matter. New York, Feb. "12. It was said yesterday in Columbia University that the recent gift of 150,000 f rom -Mrs. Maria H. Williams, was donated principally hecause of the attitude of the university in abolishing football. , The gift is to establish a chair in the department of history for the study of the "origins and developmem oi civilization among men." , much was said in the discussion f the football question about the barbarism of the game' that the title of the new professorship has a peculiar significance. ' ' Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler received many letters at the time of the football agitation commending him for his action and saying it .would be a step forward in the development of civilization. This giftn following so closely on the recent djturbance, ha led many students to believe; the donor was greatly influenced by Columbia's attempt to help advance civilization. The phraseology in " the deed of gift merely alludes to the "developmen of civilization among men," so the Columbia students say their rivals from Banard may still continue in their barbaric ways, hazing and playing rough games as heretofore.
