On Sunday new timetable went into effect
and the night passenger train between Salina
and Kansas City was put on. The night train
leaves Salina at 1916 A. NJ, and arrives in Kan
sas City at 9:35; returning, the train leaves
Kansas City at 1926 and arrives in Salina at
S:25 A. N. The through passenger leaves
for the east at sos A. NJ, and going west at

Brookville until the Y Is put in. The switch
and rails have arrived and will be put down at
once.
Col W. A. Phillips established the 'sSalina
road,' OF the South Santa Fe trail, In the
spring of 1859. He named the stream which
is now called Cary Creek, Carrier Creek. in
honor Of his excellent wife, Mrs. Carrie Phil
lips. How the name has come 70 be Cary
Creek, we do not know. The true name Is
Carrie Creek. In recent conversation with
Col. Phillips, We also learned that Holland
creek received It's name from the fact that a
small colony of Hollanders, about seven fami-
lies, settled in 1858 near the junction Of the
creek with the Smoky Hill river-aOout four
miles southwest OF the present site OF Abilene
They did not remain long, but the creek is
still called Holland creek.-AbiIeneG Gazette.
From reading the Abilene papers we gather
that they have had row in that city similar
to the one we had here over the prices paid
for grain. The merchants of that city were
troubled because the grain buyers of Abilene
were not paying as much for wheat as the
buyers at Junction, (where the freight rates
were much lower than at Abilene) and meet
ing was called. After discussing the matter ex-
citedly, they came to the conclusion that buy
ers were paying all they could afford to; that
what they wanted was lower rates, and to OBJ
tain low rates they needed a branch of the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas. from Skiddy. A
committee was appointed to confer with the
officers of that road on the subject. The reg
ular tariff rates charged by the Kansas Pacific
Railway, per 100 pounds, is as follows: From
Wamego, Manhattan, Junction City. Chap
man, Detroit, Abilene. Is cents Solomon, 10
building the branch to Skiddy they will have
an outlet to the Mississippi river or Texas.
and this gain will be great. We believe Salina
would join them in getting this road built II
it were extended west to this point. Will she: |
