SALVATION COLONY LOCATED.
Will be Established at Holley's, Colo
Four Miles From the Kansas Line.

Mr.. John E Frost, land commission
er of the Santa F'e, announces that the
land for the first Booth-Tucker colony
has been contracted for and that the
first colony will be established in the
spring in the vicinity of Holley's, Colo
Holley's is a small station in the east
ern part of Colorado. but four miles
from the Kansas state line and but six
miles from Coolidge. Kan. The Amity
canal, the big water way of the Great
Plains Water Storage company, passes
through that part of the state. and ir-
rigatiOn can be easily and effectively
carried out. Under irrigation the land
in that section is fine for farming and
fruit growing
The first colony will comprise several
pared for them with the ca pital now be-
ing raised by Booth-Tucker in the east.
The cOlonists will be taken to Colora-
do in a special train at greatly reduced
rates over the Erie and Santa Fe roads

NEW SANTA FE TRAIN.
Santa Fe Compelled to Put on Ad-
ditional California Service.

A meeting of the executive officials
and officials of the operating and pas
senger departments of the Santa Fe is
being held in Chicago today for the
double purpose of arranging for the op-
Grafton of the California limited trains
tri-wee6ly and the adoption of plan
for the relief of California tourist train
NO. 1 east OF La Junta, Colo. There is
but little doubt that 1t viii be decided
to run the limited trains tri-weekIy af-
ter January 1 instead of twice weekly
as at present. and in reference to No.
a plan has been proposed which will
probably be adopted.
This calls for the extension of the
Chicago and Kansas City express train
to La Junta, Colo. there to connect
with No. /. when the California express
which will have been handled by the
express train from Chicago to La Jun
ia viii be transferred to the tourist
train. The return express train viii
carry passengers, but this may not
mean an additional eastbound train for
Topeka, as both east and westbound
the express train may be run over the
Emporia branch or cut off"
Passenger traffic is so heavy at pres
ent on train No. 1 from Chicago to
Colorado that it consists each day of
from 10 to II cars. With this equipment
it is almost impossible to run on Sched-
ule time, and It is now almost the daily
practice to run the train west of To-
peka in two sections. Three and four
cars of express are handled daily on
this train.

Miss Hattie Richardson of Ken
tucky, Scores Gov. Bradley
For Trying to Displace Her
With His Daughter.
NAMED By HERBERT
As Sponsor For the Battleship
Kentucky, She Refuses
To Yield the Place Without a
Struggle.

Lexington, Ky, Dec. 2-William o.
Bradley stirred up a hornets nest
when ne announced Sunday that he
would appoint his daughter, Miss
Christine, sponsor for the new battle
ship Kentucky, and that she would
break a bottle over its PROV when it
is launched next January
About a. year ago a commoticn was
created in the W. c. T. q. by the pub
Hcation of a story stating that Miss
Hattie cambridge Richardson would
break a bottle of Kentucky whisky
over the PROV of the Kentucky when
it was launched.
Petitions poured into Secretary Her
bert, praying that he would not allow
whisky to be used for christening the
vessel. Now the whole matter is again
brought up by Gov. Bradley declaring
his intention of choosing his daughter
to christen the ship.
Miss Richardson is angry over the
declared intention of Gov Bradley and
has given out the following signed
statement to the public:
I am urged to speak by the discour-
teSy have been shown in this matter
by Gov. Bradley stating that he would
appoint his daughter to christen the
Kentucky. 1 also object to the manner
in which he and his friends have gone
about securing the appointment for
his daughter. When 1 was asked by
Secretary Herbert to christen the
Kentucky, I was by that honor placed
before the public. I received hundreds
of eongrat tulations from patriotic Ken
tucIzians, the highest officers of the
army and navy and from my friends
everywhere. The administration, Of
course, has changed, and Secretary
Herbert is not now in office.
Il have felt in the matter that had
been asked to christen the battleship,
and it would be an act of courtesy TO
have the honor unchanged. When Gov.
Bradley takes the laurel from my
head and places it upon that of his
daughter, just because he thinks he
has the power to do 50. I blush for the
courtesy of the governor of Ken
tucky.''
Miss Richardson is one of the hand
soonest as well as the most brilliant
young women of the state. She mas
spent much of her time in Brooklyn
and Boston, and is well known in naval
circles. She is descended from revOlu-
tionary stock, being the great grand
niece of Commodore cambridge and
the great grand daughter of William
Hall Richardson. Her father was the
late William Hall Richardson of this
city, and her mother, Jane Storstamps,
a belle and heiress of note

JOKE ON THE COURT.
Ofense on Trial by Judge FOst ter
Repeated Under His
Very Nose.

Because District Attorney Lambert
could not keep the witnesses sober in
the cases against Benjamin Paschal
and Fred Myers he ordered them dis
missed.
The two men were charged with sell
ing liquor to Indians on the Pottawa-
tonne reservation. Naturally the wit
nesses against them were the Indians
themselves They We're subpOenaed, a
dozen of them, and came to Topeka last
Monday. They hung around the court
room all day Monday but on Tuesday
they began to thirst for adventure and
other things kept in Topeka joints. .That
night three of them were found by the
police very drunk and they were lock-
ed up and fined 50 apiece.
Then District Attorney Lambert sent
for Indian Agent James to keep the
Indians straight but last night Agent
his inability to keep them under his
wing They persisted in straying away
and when they returned they We're not
in a condition to testify about sales of
liquor or anything else
The men charged with the Omense did
not assist Mr.. James materially and
this morning District Attorney Lam
bert ordered the cases stricken from
the docket. Mr.. James and his Indian
charges left today for home and Myers
and Paschal were allowed to go on their
way rejoicing.
IN speaking of the occurrence Judge
eraI times. The Indians have an in
satiable thirst for liquor and there is
always some one around ready to. graf
ify it. The district attorney has had
men to watch them but it does no good
It is likely that the men against whom
they are to appear do not stand in
their way of getting liquor. When the
Indians see a bottle of whisky it makes
them wild and there is no use trying to
control them. This thing has happened
at Fort Scott and Wichita and in both
places the cases had to be dismissed .
1t is an offense against the govern
ment to sell liquor to Indians but To-
peka jointists, evidently, have as little
fear of the government as they have of
the county and city authorities.
Sergeant Tim Donovan of the police
force had a conference with the district
attorney today and made arrangements
to have money enough held out from
the witness fees due the Indians to pay
their fines.
1t would appear to an ordinary OBJ
server that the court might sit down
hard a few times on the officers who
are supposed to look after the Indians
when they come to town The state
ment that they don't know where the
Indians get the liquor is puerile.
