Louts Republic. A singular case Involving the rights of a holder of a half-fare unlimited ticket developed recently on the Santa Fe line. It was on an casthound train from Ban ' lectlng tickets, was given the return por tion of a half-fare or child's excursion ticket from Kansas City lo Son Francis co. The holder of llw ticket was a young man about S years of age. The conductor looked at him. smiled and asked: “You don’t expect to ride on thl* ticket, do you?" “Why not? It I* on unlimited tick eg and I bought It In Kansas City eleven years ago." The conductor examined It more care fury and found that Is bore the stamp of the H ints Fe office at Kansas City and was dated April If. !W. It was, more over, as the youn man had said, an un limited ticket. “I don't doubt what you say about buy ing It." the conductor said, “but you were a kid then ami now you're a man. I can't let a man ride on a child’s ticket. You must put up the other half In cash or get off the train.” “But let me explain My father put up nearly 3109 for that ticker eleven year* ago and your company baa hud the use of Fo of It for all that time without rendering any service lo him or me for whom he bought It. If I have to pay th extra half fare, am I entitled lo a credit In the shape of Interest on that tan for eleven yeara. “I'm not cracking those kind of nuts,” the conductor replied, smiling. "You're a men and you have got to have a man's ticket or pay full fare.” "Well. I will pay Ihe extra half fare, but I would like to have something to show for It.” "All right; I’ll give you a receipt.” The numey was paid and the receipt given, tile name of Ihe young man Ixdng Charles A. De Courey. He said he would rweeent a claim against the Bunts Fe on hi# return from an eastern trip. Ixrcal pa*etiger men to whom the css# wit pre ...><ted any the conductor took the proper #l*ll*l an*l that the young man ha* no legal or cqupahle claim against the company. A railroad ticket la a contract and both portlr* to It must com ply with the term* end the condition* provided on It. A child's ticket calls for a child passenger and the moment the holder ceases to comply with this condi tion Ihe ticket Is not good for passage so far as he Is concerned. As railroad companies do not agree to pay Interest when redeeming unused tickets, the ab surdity of a claim of this kind la readily seen. The prospect# are fhat Mr De Courey will keep hi# reeelpt as an odd souvenir of an odd railroad Journey. The American Camp la IVkln. From Weekly. The Temple of H'aven.
