rived In this city from the East yes
terday afternoon, IN company with
the president Of the road, DR.. Stor-
mont. His Office will be, temporarily,
In the second story Of the new building
opposite the Gordon House, occupied
BY Messrs. Muxzy and futile, grocers.
He will take active charge Of the road
December I, and will push II to com.
pleti0n with the energy that has been
20 Characteristic of his work on the
Atchison, Topeka 4 Santa Fe.
THE WORK IN LEAvENwORTH.
The work Of filing up Hennessy's
quarry, In the west part of the city, Is
progressing rapidly. A temporary
track two hundred and fifty yards in
length has been constructed, and q
new dumping car, which separates in
the middle, emptying the dirt on either
eide, IL doing good service. From all
along the line come the most cheering
reports of the progress of the work on
the new road. The appointment Of
Mr.. Manchester, as General Manager,
seems generally regarded as good
move, and has very materially
strengthened public confidence in the
new road, and Its future Is regarded as
brilliant. BY the first day Of April,
all Leavenworth will be ready, In
holiday attire, to welcome the people
of Topeka, OskalOOsa, and, in fact, all
along the line, to come i'm and have
one Of the grandest Publications the
State of Kansas has ever witnessed.
The good effect of the road on this city
is already perceptible, and with the
Kansas Central stretching away out
west toward Denver, there Is certainly
no city i'm the West having brighter
railroad prospects than LeavenwOrth.

Mr.. GEORGE O. MANCHESTER.

It IL stated that Mr.. Manchester, for
merly Assistant General Manager of
the AtchisOn, Topeka & Santa Fe road,
has accepted the position of General
Manager Of the Leavenw0rth, Topeka
4 Southwestern Railroad, and will
take charge the Let Of December. This
report IL probably authentic. 1t may
be surmised that this movement fore
shadows the absorbing of this new
line by the Santa Fe, but we have
positive assurances that such will not
be the case. Mr.. Manchester IL one
of the most practical railroad men In
the West, and his many friends will
b glad to learn that he is not only to
remain in the State, but that he is
going to take such an important posi-.
don on this new aoad.
We understand that the delivery of
ties will commence at Leavenworth on
the frst Of December, the steel rails
to begin arriving about two weeks later.
The work IL run well In hand, and 1t
IL the intention Of the company to
push the construction as rapidly a.
circumstances will permit. There Ii
no truth In the report that the bridge
at Leavenworth will be disturbed In
any manner to delay and jeopafdize
the work on this line. The work west
Of Topeka will commence just a. soon

tween here and Leavenworth. TAX

perience, and . reputation second to
that Of no man of his age In the rail-
road business A better selection could
not have been made, either In respect
Of capacity or for the satisfaction of

Just before noon on Sunday last the
fire alarm was given, and it was an
nounced that Mr.. s. c. Services house
on Fifth street was burning. The
churches were emptied of the male
sex i'm short order, and there was q
general rush for the fire. A chair
which had stood near a stove and had
charred, filled the room with smoke,
and this was the occasion of the cry
of" fire." which caused the alarm bell
tobe sounded. The only damage done
was from the blows of the AK, which
were applied vigorously for the pur-
pose Of discovering where the fire
might be located.
