CHANGES AT NEWTON
New Roundhouse and Machine Shops
Plans Agreed to.

Newton, May 31--The proposed
changes in the Santa F'e yards at New
ton have been arranged.
There are thirty stalls in the round
house at NickersOn, but they cannot
all be transferred here. Considering
the location of the present round house,
its distance from the depot, etc, the
new house will have but twenty-five
stalls. The present house will extend
into more than a serni-circle. There
will be two entrance ways to the new
transfer tables, one from the east and
one from the west. The new table
will be go feet instead of 54
The new machine shop, 112x22O, will
be placed to the west of the round
house and the present carpenter shop
and blacksmith shop will be enlarged
and placed west of the machine shop.
A compressed air plant of a modern
type will be run here
About two miles of new track will be
built.
Work will be commenced here in
about three weeks. The first thing done
will without doubt be the removal of
the round house from Nickerson.

AN AWFUL GAVE.
Topeka Fans Were Sorry They We're
Out Saturday.

The base ball games Saturday at Ath-
letic park were a great disappointment
to Topeka fans. The Topeka team did
not show up in good shape at all. In
the morning a game was played in
which AtchisOn was winner by a score
Of u to g. Drummer pitched for Topeka
and Jones for the visitors
The summary was as follows:
Earned runs. AtchisOn s. two base
hits, Howe, Beauchamp, Brown, I'm
derwood; three base hits, Krebs; base
on balls, off Jones 3, Drummer 3; struck
out. by Jones Z. Drummer s; double plays.
DriscoH to McFadden, Underwood to
McFadden, Jones to Howe to Cole;
umpire, Sample.
In the afternoon a large crowd at
tended the game and it was a sore
crowd which left the grounds when the
game was finished and AtchisOn had Is
scores While Topeka had but 4.
Sherwood, a man who can't play ball
in any position, was put in the box for
Topeka and at the end of the fifth
inning, in response to repeated calls
from the grand stand he was put in
right field and little Wingert substi-
tuted He wasn't much better. If it
hadn't been for Stricklett's good work
in center field the score might have
been 90 to T. Jimmy Driscon distin-
guished himself by a very costly error
and in all Topeka was charged with
nine errors. while Atchison had but
four. It was a slow. sloppy game and
the crowd got tired of it A coach is
badly needed
An enthusiastic fan on the bleachers
remarked: They are not 'humming
birds: they are not even crows. Well

thousand dollar bar to boot" The
