They require the conductors to give receipts to passen­ gers for money paid to them (the con­ ductors). When the conductsrs start out they get their^pass, then g®t the family Bible and see if the name is right, and then pull out. At the first station out, they go to the engineer, and if he lias no pass, they put him off- This is wfiat the engineers call slipping an ecceutric.
