Santa Fe Road to Have an Off
cial History.
President Ripley Authorizes it's
Preparation by
TREASUR ER WILDER
From Territorial Organization
Up to January 1, 1898.
Will Contain the Santa Fe Gel
TREASUR Err WILDER
Will Contain the Santa Fe Gel
ebratiOn in Detail.

An official history of the Santa Fe road,
from the time of its original organization
up to and including the anniversary cele-
bration is to be prepared. 1t has been
authorized by President E. P. Ripley and
will be written by Treasurer Edward Will
der of this city.
This will be carrying out a long cher
ished desire on the part of Treasurer Will
der, who has held that a road of such
proportions and Importance as the Santa
Fe should have official history. Its
preparation at this time will be exceed
ingly appropriate, following as it will the
silver anniversary celebration of the road,
which marked the lapse of % years since
the completion of the road from the east
ern to the western borders of the state.
Besides containing a history of the road,
the book Will also contain photographs
of the officers and directors, scenes of
early days and pictures of the principal
floats which appeared in the Santa Fe
celebration parade. The celebration will
be described in detail, and this portion of
the history will include the addresses
made to the employees by President Rip
pley and others on the afternoon of Santa.
Fe day.
The skeleton of the history is contain
ed in the chronological data on file in Mr..
Wfder's office and this will be used for
reference by Mr.. Wilder in preparing the
work. The books will be handsomely
bound and it is the intention to place
them in the hands of all officials, direct
ors and a majority of the employees OF
the road, as we'll as among as many OUT
siders as may desire them.
The bulk of the expense of preparing
and issuing the histories will probably be
borne by the company. Although it has
not been definitely decided, it is probable
that the remainder will be raised by sub
scriptions among those placing orders for
copies.
Mr.. Wilder has been identified with the
Santa Fe road for the past 25 years, and
no one is more capable of writing a hiss
tory of the pioneer western railroad He
will start the work of preparation as
soon as possible.

WILL SEND ANOTHER GUN.
That is the Reply of Tampa Cubans to
Spain's Offer of Peace.

New York, Nov. 6.-Chickering hall
was crowded last night with enthusi-
astic Cubans who applauded when the
speakers declared that Cuba would
never accept reforms from Spain, that
peace could only come after the evacu-
alton of the island by the Spanish army
and that the Cuban patriots would
fight to the death for their independ-
ence. Not a word of English was spO-
ken during the meeting over which
Thomas Estrada Palma presided.
Among the speakers were General
Emanuel SanguiIly, Nicholas Heredta,
G. NJ. Gracia Monies, DR.. z. J. DevOr-
on, Ffdel PierrO, DR.. MOntalro and NJ.
ReicOi De MOrats.
Between the speeches DR.. Tamman-
nio read kilograms from CubanS in
Boston, New Orleans. Galveston, At
1anta, Charleston, st. Louis, Chicago
and Tampa The message from the
CubanS in Tampa is said to be that
in reply to Spain's offer of sham re
forms they would send another dyna-
mite gun to the Cuban army. DR..
Tammannio also said that during the
past month the Cubans of New York
had contributed 1927, ,135 for the benefit
of the cause. General Sanguilly the
principal speaker declared that Blanco
would prosecute the war just as if
CanoVas was still alive and that the
Cubans would fight to the end.

of Present and Future Plans.

London, Nov. 6.-Mrs. Potter does not

of the Australian managers under
whose direction she was introduced to
London as star. The season of eight

for which the contract with Mrs. Pot

years of hard work in several cOnti-

L did not expect to set the Thames
on fire when 1 came to London Mrs
Potter said, but am greatly gratified
by my success. am glad to be one OF
the few American actresses who have
gained a position on the London stage
1 believe Mary Anderson, Miss Rehan
and myself are the only ones.
Ten years ago, when 1 entered the
profession, I determined to achieve a
reputation OVerreaching the borders Of

say without boasting, 1 have succeed

with my London success. As for the
that did not adopt it 20 years ago in

painter or writer, but for a woman to
do some sort of work, make some sort
of a career, is better than dwelling in
society. And the temptations of this
life are less than those of a society wO-
man, for we work too hard. and there
is no time to think of other things And
when letters come to me like I had one
today, written on a drumhead at Fort
LOckhart, where they are fighting the
Indians, thanking me for the pleasure
my work had given the writer, and
