TWO TOPEKA MEN HURT.
7. J. Keiiam and w. A. L. Thompson
in Wreck
NEAR CRIPPLE CREEK, COLORADO

Their Injuries Not SerfOuS-hr- AAeA-
lam snfrering From Nervous Shock.
Railroad News.
A wreck occurred last evening on the
Midland Terminal railway at Victor,
Col. in which T. J. KeIlam and W. a. L
Thompson of this city were injured.
Their injuries ara reported slight, how
ever, and they will be able to return to
Topeka in few days
The wreck occurred about ago o. M,
while the passenger train which leaves
Cripple Creek at $3.50 was backing out
: from Victor towards the at Grassy,
where it was to turn, and was running at
usual speed. From Bull Hill station to
Victor there is very heavy grade. A
freight engine was switching cars at
Bull Hill, making up train which was
to follow the passenger, due to pass in a
few minutes. An empty box car broke
loose from the train, and start
ed down the grade at terrific
speed. Just as the passenger train
reached point the main line, in
Gu: 200 feet long and 20 feet deep, the
box car crashed into the rear coach OF
the train, both cars telescoping foC about
10 feet The passeng gers in the rear end
of the coach were all injured, some Sc
riousIv. Those in the front end of the
car escaped with slight Shaklng up
The coach was heavily loaded and tif-
teen of the passengers were severely
injured.
Mr. Thompson and Mr. Kellam left
+ Topeka last Wednesday for Colorado to
look after some large mining interests
which they own at Cripple Creek. They
were on their return home whom the &C
cident occurred.
Col. c. K. Holiday received a tele-
gram from J. Ii. Parker, Cripple Creek
banker, last night, which stated
that aside from receiving a severe
nervous shock. Nh KelIam was not seri-
ously injured, and that Mr.. Thompson
was slightly bruised. He advised, how
ever, that Mrs Kellam come out 10 Vic
tor.
This morning Jacob Smith received
the following telegram from MIR. Thomp-
son:
1926 a m.-Bruised and sore; moth
ing serious. Kellam getting better"
Mrs. kellam, accompanied by Charles
Holiday, left this morning at 1870 for
Victor. The fact of sending for his wife
may mean that Mr.. Kellam is more Sc
verely injured than they care to state.

CHICAGO MARKET LETTER

Furnished by Topeka Grain and Stock EE-
change. 526 Kansas Avenue.
Chicago-There was a better feeling
again today in the wheat market
and an advance of nearly cent from
yesterdays close. A great many traders
have changed front and are now on the
bull side. Argentine a6vices continue
unfavor4ble and large engagements of
wheat for shipment from the Pacific
coast again confirm the reports of
great shortage in Australian and South
African stocks. Receipts in the north
west show tendency to fall off and a
better demand is reported from millers
at advancing prices. Visible supply will
show a fair decrease Monday. The
main strength was caused by continued
liberal Atlantic seaboard cleSrances. We
have had "a fair advance but we still ao
vocate purchases of wheat on all soft
spots
Corn and oats also 6rmer and scored
small advance.
Provisions were largely sold by pack
ers who anticipate a larger run of hogs
next week, but thesame conditions exist
ed a week ago, and were not fulfilled.
The country buying continues aud thai is
the best sign of d dull market. Kennett.

derson relates that after six months Of
gymnasium work the chests of 40 out of
SO girls showed gain in girth of from
one-half an inch to two inches and half.
The average gain was 1 = inches. Basket
ball was one of the main contributors to
this physical improvements.
Miss Anderson has for several years been
recognized as one of the leaders in the de-
partment of physical culture. Prior to her
removal to Chicago in 1894 she held posi-
lions at Golden Hill seminary, Bridgeport,
Conn.,; Hampton college, kentucky, and
in the Connecticut State Normal school.
Immediately before accepting her present
position she also took special instruction
in gym nastics in Stockholm, Sweden. Miss
Anderson is of slight build, but has well
knit frame. She is an ideal teacher in her
chosen profession, has tho unbounded con-
fdence of hor pupils and exercises strict
discipline over her charges. She is firm
believer in the axiom that to have a sound
mind requires n sound body, and she is al
ways willing to prove the truth to any one
skeptical on the subject.

A General "Hovs Around" BY the Santa
Fe in Texas.
The report sent out that q number OF
the Santa Fe ticket agents at several of
the Texas points had been released,
proves to have been incorrect 1t now
appears that city ticket and passenger
agent, Walter g. Wilkins. OF Dallas, is
the only one who has suffered dscapita-
ton, and that his release has caused the
promotion of several agents at other
points.
The Fort Worth Gazette states that the
following changes have taken place: G.
l. Holland, agent at Temple. succeeds
biz Wilkins at Dallas; r. D. Field,
agent at Houston, succeeds Mr.. Holland
at Temple; Joe Greenhill of Paris sue
ceeds Mr.. Field at Houston, and Fl. &.
RowIey, of Topeka, assistant ticket agent
at Dallas, has bsen installed as ticket
and passenger agent at Paris.
Ticket Agt. Wilkins of Dallas has boon
in the service of the Santa Fe for num-
Der of years and was thought to be a
thorough ticket and passenger man. No
cause is given for his release.
