Asked to Not Frequent Saloons and
Thereby Shun the Very Ap.
pearance of Evil
Yesterday morning several of the
Passenger engineers in the employ of
the Lehigh Valley were called to the
office of Superintendent Kinney sod
while there iistened to some good ad-
vice relative to frequenting saloons
and looking upon the wine when it is
red. Superintendent Kinney did not
accuse any of the men of drinking
In fact he conveyed the idea that the
men at the throttle on the Lehigh are
for the most part sober, industrious
citizens, who are to be relied upon
to perform their dutles with a clear
head, but the object of the superinten-
dent In calling them into the office
was to impress upon their minds the
value of shunning the very appear-
ance of evil. Mr. Kinney told the men
that it was better to keep out of the
saloons entirely, and then there would
be no cause for suspicion. He said
that a man might be an absolute te-
tofaller, but if he went into saloons
it was an act which would give rise
to much talk, and that there were
those who would accuse them of
drinking whether they did so or not
The men were not asked to sign the
pledge but were simply cautioned
relative to frequenting a place where
intoxicants are sold
Each year shows a marked deter-
mination on-the part of railway of-
ficlals to promote sobriety among the
employes. In fact It has reached a
point where the officials will almost
demand that men at the throtile, es-
pecially in the passenger service,
shall be sober at all times The best
men make mistakes when they are
strickly sober, but the chances for
mistakes are Infinitely greater with
whiskey. Railroad accidents galors
have been charged up Indirectly to
the man who fills his system with
whiskey, and the time wiii come when
a man cannot hold a responsible
railroad position and at the same
time dally with the wine cup
LEHIGH STATION AT
ATHENS ROBBED.
Burglars Effect an Entrance Through
Une of the Rear Windows.
The Lehigh Valley station at Ath-
ens was entered by burglars last
night, but until the ticket agent fn-
Ishes checking up the office it will
not be known whether anything of
value was secured by thieves. The
thieves were persistent and made two
attempts to effect an entrance before
they were successful. They first
broke out a pane of glass In one of
the front windows, and then attempt-
ed to work the window catch. Un-
successful in this effort they went to
the rear of the station and fnally
galned an enjrance. The tUckel case
Was opened, but no attempt was made
to get Into the money drawer. The
police of the three towns have heen
notified, but as yet there Is no clue
to the perpetrators of the crime
Attention, Subscribers,
The management of the Record
will esteem it a favor If subscribers
will report any and all failures on the
part of carriers to deliver papers
regularly. A radical change has re-
cently been made In the system of de-
livering papers by the carrier boys
and the management in order to as-
certain how the new system is work-
Ing must be informed by the subsecrib-
ors if they are not receiving their
papers regularly, Therefore, If you
fall to receive your paper reach us
by telephone, send a messenger, a
postal card, or call in person and
enter your complaint. We will then
endeavor to get the matter straigh-
tened out to your entire satisfac-
tion. The Record is published for
the readers, and the management
wants each subscriber to get the pa-
per with regularity. In order, how-
ever, to deliver a paper at your door
for the sum of twenty-five cents per
month it is necessary to depend upon
boys to do the work. It {8 not al-
ways possible to employ reliable boys
and that is the reason we want all
fallures to deliver reported at this
office
Rallroadeps Expeel Another Advance.
Members of the Brotherhood of
Tralnmen In Harrisburg expect a de-
cision any day upon their applica-
tion for shorter hours and advanced
wiges. Many of them are confident
that thelr requests will be granted
and it is intimated that the committee
which waited on the officials a few
days ago received very encouraging
