CONVERTED INTO DRAWING ROOMS
A New Departure at the Topeka Santa Fe
Shops.

Shops.
There is a great glow of pride on the
faces of the Santa Fe car shops just now
and it is all owing to two new parlor cars
that have just been sent out
The cars are elegant ones and were
made all in Topeka, every bit of wood
and brass and iron and silver was fitted
here in the Santa Fe shops and SO great
was the Joy at their appearance when
completed that half day was almost
set aside for a celebration. They are
truly magnificent pieces of workman
ship.
They were made from old dining cars
and are the idea of Superintendent of
Machinery John Player.
The main compartment of the car is in
the middle and occupies a little more
than half the length of the Car. It is
simply an elegantly furnished room with
out, of course, the piano and tables.
On each side are twelve seats, half on
each side, being on stationary pivots and
the rest on legs and movable. The
chairs are made of rattan wickerwork
and magnificently upholstered and cush-
Toned, being finished in plush. At each
chair is an electric button so you can call
the porter and get what you may desire
without moving from your seat
There is a smoking and wash room at
each end of the car.
The cars are steam heated, we'll VEN
tilsted and have an abundance of win
dows and mirrors to spare.
The two cars that have just been fin
ished went to Las Vegas today, where
they will be used on a daylight run to
San Diego.
Eighteen more of these cars are to be
made in Topeka just as rapidly as pos
sibie. They are made out of the old
diners.
1t is said that each of these cars cost
between $4,000 and $4,000
Dyspepsia is an inward fire. 1t comes
from unwholesome food. Pure food, made
with DR.. Prices Baking Powder, pre-
vents it

Shipments.

Now Make the Bulk of Santa Fe Freight
Shipments.
The shipment of fruit and vegetables
from California has this year been I'M
precedented in the history of the Santa
Fe railroad.
In the month of February 537 car
loads of fruit and 324 cars of vegetables
were shipped by the Santa Fe from
California points. There were 1874 cars
of oranges shipped from Mexico during
the past month.
The business this month has been
lighter but 40 cars of oranges have al
ready left California for eastern markets.
The greater amount of freight bust
ness in Kansas now is the shipment of
potatoes. A great many bushels were
stored at Lawrence, Leavenworth and
intermediate points, and they are now
being marketed. Ten car loads of pota-
toes are daily taken out of Colorado by
the Santa Fe.

d. H. Cheney Decd.

d. II. Cheney, an old settler OF
Prairieview township, died in Denver
last week, OF heart disease. Mr..
Cheney moved to Denver last fall,
and was employed in factory there
as watchman. Mr.. Cheney was an
active republican, and came very near
receiving the nomination for county
clerk two years ago. He was highly
esteemed by all his acquaintance.
His funeral was held at Prairieview,
Saturday. The Denver NetUS says Of
his death;
AT eight o'clock yesterday morn
ing, d. h. Cheney died suddenly at
his home, 2318 Arapahoe street. The
cause was heart disease aud he fell
dead in the kitchen just as he was
taking leave of his wife, Police sur.
geon Walker was called but he was
quite dead when he arrived. From
his wife it was learned that Cheney
was victim of heart disease, and this
malady undoubtedly caused his
death"
