SURPRISE GIVEN
P. R.R. PENSIONER
No Bandit This Time, but
Friends; Only Conductor Ever
Held Up; on 801 l of Honor
Isaac 11. Poffenberger, 418 Boas
street, the only passenger conductor
on the Pennsylvania railroad who ever
experienced a real holdup, recently re
tired, was given a big surprise Satur
day night. Members of the Brother
hood of Railroad Trainmen called at
liis home and presented the veteran
with several tine gifts.
Tlie Rev. W. W. Hart man, pastor
of Ridge Avenue Methodist Episcopal
Church, made Hie presentation ad
dress. The presents Included a large
leather fireside chair, traveling bag,
silk umbrella and a bouiiuet of chrys
anthemums.
After forty-seven years of active
service Mr. Pol'fenberger's name will
now bo placed on the company's roll
of honor. He was born at Halifax.
April 20, 1849, where he attended
school and received his education. •
On December 1, 1868, he entered the
employ of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company as brakeman in the Harris
burg yards and on April 1, 1869, was
assigned to duty as freight brakernan
on the Middle division, running be
tween Harrisburg and Altoona.
Henceforth Mr. PotTenberger's promo
tions are recorded as follows: From I
freight brakeman to freight flagman, I
September 1. 1872; from freight flag- 1
man to passenger brakeman, Septem
ber 1, 1875, and to passenger train
conductor, November 15, 1880.
Shot by Ilundlt
During his thirty-five years as a
passenger conductor he has had some
of the choice runs of the road, includ- '
lng the 18-liour train. New York to i
Chicago, known _at the time as tlie
"Pennsylvania Special" or "The Flyer."
An unusual and in nowise an en
vious experience fell to the lot of Con
ductor Poffenberger on tlie mornins,
of August 31, 1909. He was conduct
ing train No. 39. the Pittsburgh Ex
press. and while the train was passing
through the wild gorge of the Lewis
town Narrows a lone bandit tried to
wreck it with nitroglycerine. The
highwayman evinced his desperate ]
character by trying lo kill the con
ductor because he was under the im
pression the latter was about to inter
fere with him. He did succeed in
wounding Mr. PofTenberger in the left
I hand. The holdup man fired in all
about eifilit shots and two bullet holes
were found in the skirt of the con
ductor's uniform coat. Tlie holdup of
this train was without a doubt one of
the boldest in the history of eastern
roads.
Mr. Poffenberger has been an active
member of the Ridge Avenue Meth
odist Church for the past twenty-five
years. Is a member of Herculean
Lodge, No. 574. Brotherhood of Rail

No Heal Leaders According to

I
International averages, compiled by!

good work.
Buffalo leads in club fielding with a'
percentage of .969, but there is only a
difference of 17 points between the
Bisons and Richmond, which finished
in last place.
According to the averages, and judg
ing a player by the number of games
played, the best fielding team in the.
International League is made up asl
follows: First baseman, Judge, Buf-i
falo, now with the Washington Amer
icans, .994: second baseman. Trues
dale, Jersey City, who in 120 games
had a percentage of .971, although Mc-
Carthy, Buffalo, who took part in 15 i
more games, finished the season with !
.970.
Hues Star Third Baseman
By all odds the best third baseman ,
was Bues, Jersey City, with .967 for
130 games, though Arthur Devlin, re
leased by the Giants to Montreal, had
1.965 for 112 games. Stevenson, of
I Rochester, led the shortstops, having!

Another athletic trophy to-day was
placed in the Hall of Fame at Tech
nical High school. It was a silver cup
won by the cross-country team on
Saturday. Tech runners made a elean-
I up. They hiniK up a record that will
j be hard lo beat over a course similar
to that offered Saturday.
I The unanimous election of Harold A.
'Clark as next year's football captain
at Penn-State is another evidence that
Central High gridiron athletes have
been well trained. Clark has been
j doing great work. When lie was a
J member of the Central High eleven,
he starred in every game. It is the
second time within two years that a
Harrisburg High sel 00l star has been
honored at Penn-itate. "Shortv"
Miller was captain of one of the best
football teams representing this insti
tution..
The Brown eleven can't get enough
of the game, it seems. They are now
in training preparatory to the game
with Washington State College, to be
played at Pasadena, Cat., on New
Year's Day.

"Ted" Meredith is said to be in poor
condition. It can't, bo that at his age
lie is losing his punch. Meredith is
the sort of runner who just naturally
runs, whether he has had pie for din
ner or not. It doesn't seem to worry
him in the least, and it is said that,
smoking does not bother him except
when in the strictest training.
The Navy cops a prize in Charley
Barrett, Cornell's captain and shining
light, if he decides to go there next
year, as at present seems very likely.
Eet. the Army look to her laurels if
this be the case.
It must be tough to be a famous
football player and have to sign your
