A prominent railway man tells of n
railway ticket that took a sudden jour­
ney on Its own account. It appears
that as a northbound train on the Colo­
rado and Southern road passed one of
the stations a passenger In a forward
car raised a window, and In an In­
stant his ticket was blown from his
hands. The passenger naturally gave
It up for lost and was much surprised
when the baggagemnster handed it to
him a little while later. It appears
that when the ticket flew through the
window a southbound train was pass­
ing. The suction of that train, which
was moving at a rapid rate, drew the
ticket along with It, and as it passed
the rear end of the northbound train it
blew Into the door of the smoking car.

master.—Minneapolis Journal.
