THE BAGGAGE SMASHER’S STORV.
HiwRelloatlrd the Trunk of n Newlr
.flurried Couplr of Uncertain A* e
“Where is the baggage master?" the
reporter asked a dapper little fellow in a
blue uniform and a gold-banded cap at
the Pennsylvania Railroad depot, a day
or two ago.
“I am one of them.”
“You ?” the reporter said inquiringly,
and then looked him over. “Whathe
thought to himself, “this little pin and
needle fellow, the trunk smasher of the
road ! No. He can only be the deceitful
dummy, put here to delude travelers with
the belief that their baggage will be
handled like a can of nitro-glycerine.
The man with the iion list and steel
boot, who jerks the life out of a trunk by
a twist of the wrist, must be behind
somewhere.”
Just then a carriage drove up, a lady-
got out, and a gentleman asked for cheeks
for a moderate sized trunk for Chicago.
The dapper little fellow looked at their
tickets, pit a check on the trunk, and
then by a mysterious twist, and without
seeming to move his body, skillfully rolled
it along the long baggage room. As he
reached the truck, on which other trunks
had been loaded, he gave a little yank,
and the trunk bounded up from the
floor. Another movement, too rapid for
the reporter to see what it was, and the
trunk lay on the truok, without so much
as a pin scratch on it. Then the baggage
master came back, as fresh and as clean
as a f incy bar-tender.
“Where’s your baggage ?” he asked the
marveling reporter.
“I havn’t any. But how is it you han
dle that trunk so easy ?"
The little man looked at the reporter
politely but inquisitively. The reporter
told him who he was, and that he wanted
to know something about the secrets of
the business, and whether they were get
ting ready to smash a pile of trunks this
summer.
Then a sad look crept over his fac j .
“Smashing’s gone by, at least herea
bouts,” he said. “There isn’t any more
fun in the business such as the old men
tell me there used to be. We don’t have
sny chance to study people and get to
know them by their trunks, as the old
fellows did. There isn’t any life, not a
bit of free and easy work about this
thing now-a-days. A fellow, if he is
going into baggaging, ought to have be-
guu twenty years ago. Then there was
tun. I didn’t know myself—only what I
hear the old boys sav.,'
“Tuen you don’t oil up your arms and
practice with the dumb bells, and kick
the sand bags, so as to get in good work
ing trim to master a trunk? ’
“No, indeed ; we’ve been trained very
differently. Its gone to the other ex
treme. They expect us to wear a clean
shirt, a Piccadilly collar, with a white tie,
use perfumed soap on our hands, and to
keep our boots blacked. On the cars we
can put on a calico jacket to keep the
dust off from our shirt bosoms. But you
notice a baggageman don’t show himself
now any more than he can help when
the tiains stop. You can just see his
head out of the car door when he’s un
loading a trunk. Then we have to learn
how to get a purchase on a trunk, so as
to twist it around on one corner, and
make all the strain come on that corner and
on our wrists, and a scratch on a trunk
now shows that some green hand has
had bold of it. They'll expect us to learn
the languages next. Oh, yes, we’re sci
entific, but there isn’t any fun about it
any more,” and the poor fellow sighed.
“Let me take your hand,” he con
tinued. He gave the reporter’s hand a
wrench that made it feel as though it had
got into the screw of an ocean steamer.
“That’s what it does for us any way.
The old boys could have knocked your
head off at one blow, but they couldn't
squeeze like that.”
“Last year, the Centennial, you know,
was a busy one for us, and we had moie
regular cow-sheds of trunks to handle;
but we managed most of them, except
hair trunks, I swan; but we did hate to
get hold of a hair trunk. Y'ou can’t get
any purchase on them. They are so
slippery that you can’t do anything with
them, and the little iron handles cut the
fingers. It looks now as though travel
would be light this summer. The hot
spell turned out a few, but business isn’t
going to be very driving. If you want to
know the difference between baggaging
now and a few years ago see some of the
old boys.”
Now, this little talk was a revelation,
and it seemed a good thing to follow up
the disclosure, and see whether the tradi
tional baggage smasher was really pass
ing away like so many other of the de
lightful old institutions wuich civilization,
and especially railroad civilization, has
destroyed.
At the Erie, the Central New Jersey,
and the Grand Central depots the report
er found the same dapper little men.
Some of them would talk a little about
business, but all were sad. They hear
stories about the old days, when the
smashers looked on the trunk as a per
son, and felt free to act out their real
feelings toward it. They see that the
veterans learned a lot of human nature
from trunks, and could tell at a glance
what sort of a person represented
a particular piece of baggage, and
then they would treat that partic
ular piece in just the way to dis
turb that person. No, the new men are
getting to be machines. They do their
work perfectly, neatly and uniformly;
but the monotony of it shows itself on
their habits. Ask them if they expect
much summer travel; many Saratoga
trunks to handle; if they are in good
condition to grapple with three-deckers—
they smile sadly. They don’t seem to
expect anything; their training teaches
them that a Saratoga differs from a hog-
skin valise only in the method of treat
ment, and they care no more for a three-
decker tljan for a carpet-bag. Trey have
mastered the business scientifically, and
it has mastered them- knocked all the
individuality out of them. So I couldn’t
learn from them whether a big cr little
summer travel is expected.
If you want to find a smasher of the
old stamp in New York you have got to
look some time for him. The country-
roads are as full of them as ever. 'Un
scientific treatment hasn’t reached them
yet. Outside of New York you are in a
great danger of finding your hair oil, pol
ishing up that white duck suit, or best
bonnet jammed in at the crown, ora
binge gone, or any of those little excite
ments which have given a piquancy to
travel so long as ever.
The reporter found one cf the old
stagers, however—a man who had ban
died one of the_ first trunks put on the
New Haven Road. This relio is not sad,
but mad, and it took some coaxing to get
him to talk.
“Yes,” he said: “yes, it’s all changed.
Better for the trunk, worse for the man.
and worse for the traveler. A person
who behaved himself and got a decent
trunk never had any trouble with it.
One or two dents, a few scratches, learned
folks a lesson; and those trunk
makers were as much to blame for it as
we. We didn’t have to get trained. All
we needed was a good pair of arms. We
worked by sheer strength, not science,
and there was fun in it. Why, we got so
we could tell the minute we looked at a
trunk what sort of a person owned it. I
could tell an old maid's trunk at sight. 1
can’t tell you how. There was a sort of
look abjut it. If the trunk showed her
a clever sort of person it never got any
hard usage, but if she was a sour pepper -
mint-candy eating one, that trunk gen
erally came out cf the car worse than
it went in. We us-.d to love to get hold
of a dandy’s. How we’d shako it up and
laugh to think how he’d look when he got
to his hotel! We'd make it look worse
than a cutlery drummer’s. We used to
fight shy of drummers' trunks. They
knew the ropes. Then there were the
codfish, six cent arislocratio fools. They
always carried the biggest trunks. That’s
who they got banged up so. It wasn’t be
cause the trunk was big, though every
body supposed so. It was bee tuse only
stuck up folks traveled with Saratogas.
Why, the real gentlemen and ladies never
made much splurge with trunks when they
traveled. I never got stuck but once with
a trunk. One was put on a few years
ago that we couldn’t make out. I thought
it was some stingy old bachelor’s; the
other boys swore it was an old maid’s.”
Here the old smasher laughed out
right.
“Whose was it?” the reporter asked.
“Well, we were all right. The con
ductor came into the baggage car and told
us he’d got the est bridal couple on
the train. An old maid and a bach. The
old maid had been in failing health, and
the doctor had told her that carriage
riding would do her good. She was close
and wouldn’t pay for a team, so she hit on
a plan of going to all the funerals. She
went to every funeral for a year, and so
got free rides. Well, she met the old
buffer at a funeral, and told him she was
going to another the next day. He was
there, and they rode together to the
grave. He proposed when in a hack at a
funeral. It was their trunk we had, and
it looked as though it had been through
the revolutionary war. It was the sickest
looking trunk I ever saw when we got
through with it.—New York Sun.
