FOHSPra.ii Quick Action Is Necessary When One Is Ordered. WORK OF THE DISPATCHER.

This Official Has a Complicated Task In Pulling th* gpeclal Through Wlthsut Interfering With th* Running Tim* of Other Fast Train*. Suppose you wished to taka a special trip to any place on the map and the hour of your sudden reaotntlon was S a. m. Tho chances are against knowing bow to make this masterly move at ouch an unearthly hour, to say nothing of knowing bow to go about It during the hours of bnsjncas. It la easier than the unlllated possibly may believe. Of course the principal thing Is money, the thing that maksa both the mare and the special train go. The train dispatcher Is the official who can start the train while his superiors are asleep and when a wild eyed man who has s race against death to make halfway across the continent dashes Into the station looking for a train that will make the distance on Its schedule. What the chief dls patcher wants to be sure about is the Identity of the applicant for the unusual privilege and in tbls connectloD whether be Is able to pay for a «pe

thousand dollar* In Mils will make the dispatcher t»e! very much like ordering out the train. A deposit of that amount In bis hand* will un-

doubtedly bring the train out In a Tew

minutes after the order ta given. Some irrigated lands of the Green River

If he la a wall known cltlxen. Is a sufficient guarantee. It made large enough to cover the bill for the special In the case of a wealthy jnau who 111 let nothing stand In the way of srcompllsblng his purpose the Cost o.’ the train Is not a previous consideration. He simply wants to get to a cer tain point at a certain time. Gettlug there on time la the uppermost thought In bis mind. He pares restlessly up sfld down the platform until the train backs Into the station or on td the sldhe Is ootlflid It may be walling for him. Cnles* lie stlimlates that private car be used In the train be 111 get a Pullman all by himself or those who accompany him. The use of private car costs more, but Is ’preferred by the wealthy patron.

In this way the schedules of tbi other trains are not broken more than a few minutes. The special daabes th# right of way, and the regu lar fast train follows It. Freight trains using the same track are ape to He on the tidings longer than the passengers because they canpot make distance# between sidings quick 'enough to cn out In time to give the special a dear track. r . .
