STEAM EAGLE SCREAMED.
Flag Raising at Argentine Presents a
Decided Novelty.

Flag raisings have been popular all
over the Santa F'e since the victory of
Admiral Dewey but so far the Argen-
tine shops hold the palm for a decided
novelty. At their flag raising they had
speeches, a band and Uncle Sam to
unfurI the flag but the novelty came
when master of ceremOnie, John Purcell
gave the signal for the flag to be I'M
furled.
The flag staff is a handsome one and
on the top is a silver eagle with out
stretched wings. When the signal for
the unfurling came the eagle
screamed Through the inside of the
flag staff was a small pipe carrying
compressed air to a whistle placed in
the eagles mouth. The eagle
screeched and screamed while the flag
was being unfurled and now it has be-
come a habit for those passing the
throttle to the eagles "screamer' to
give it a, pull so it is nothing unusual
when in Argentine to hear the Ameri-
can eagle screaming as it is perched
above the stars and stripes.

A FEW LAST WORDS
Which Held the Train But Couldn't
Keep on HolG-ng It.

Conductor, oh conductor called a
black haired woman with a pleasant
smile and a big parasol to the conductor
of a west bound Santa Fe as it was
leaving Topeka few days ago.
Yes man," answered the gallant
conductor as he tipped his new summer
cap.
Il must telephone to my husbtnd be-
fore 60" said the woman.
But it is time for US to go now" an
swered the conductor looking at his
watch.
oh but it is so important" said the
woman clasping her hands in an atti-
tude of prayer and with tears filing her
eyes.
"All right, but you must hurry" was
the conductors response.
"Oh 1 will hurry" and the woman
rushed away to the telephone about as
excited as anyone could be. The news
stand and the sleeping dogs suffered by
her hurry, but she kept on. The con-
ductor asked the engineer to find some
thing the matter which would delay
him till the woman could telephone then
he went back just in time to hear the
conversation at the phone.
Now don't let baby swallow the sill
yer spoon, see that the blinds are all
locked when you go to bed, put the cat
an the cellar, don't let the baby have
any sour milk''-but the woman got no
further. The conductor called "aIl
aboard and the woman was forced to
ring off

Charles Mcdonald was the loser

On December 1, 1897, a check for $15.75
was paid to one Charles Mcdonald by
the Santa Fe paymaster. A few days
ago the check was returned to the bank
of Topeka for collection. 1t had been
endorsed by several persons, and had
been turned over to Lazard Bros, bank
ers, Paris, for collection. The Paris
bankers sent it to the Fourth National
bank of New York for collection and in
turn they sent it to the Topeka bank for
collection. The check was sent up to
the treasurer's office of the Santa Fe
and then it was discovered that the
right Charles Mcdonald had never re
ceived the check or the money and that
his signature was a forgery. McDOn-
aid swOre to an affidavit that he had
not endorsed the check and that he had
not received the money and now the
check must travel back over the terri
tory it has been and through all the diff
ferent persons hands who have en-
dOrsed it in an attempt to find out who
forged the signature. One peculiar
point is that it was never given to the
party it belonged to and that it should
have been honored in Paris.

HE REMEMBERS FAR BACK
When There Was Only One Railroad
Out of st. Louis.

eff the designers of engines keep on
building up in the air l would like to
know when the engines of today will
become so tall that they will be top
heavy said an old time engineer who
could remember when there was but
one short road west of st. Louis to JEFF
fersOn City.
1T used to be that engines were built
wider. The track gauges used to be
six feet. The first cut was to bring the
standard gauge down to five feet and
now it is four feet eight and one-half
inches wide. remember when the new
standard of 567a inches was adopted
that it was a long time before it be-
came universal There was one road
in the south that used the five foot
track. The Pullmans that left New
York over that road were fitted with
the standard trucks and when Virginia
was reached the cars were lacked up
and the 5615 inch trucks were run out
and the five foot put in their place. The
train would be run over the wide gauge
road. The idea carried out in railroad
building is to keep the superstructure
within the width of the wheel base and
so when any new device or enlargement
is made the engine is made that much
taller. They will keep on building en-
gines up in the air and some day they
will get them so tall they will be tipping
over"

AMERICAN REGISTRY
Will Enable the Government to In
creaes Transport Fleet

Washington, May N.-The senate COM
mittee commerce today had under
consideration the subject of granting
American registry to foreign built ships
for the purpose of securing their services
in carrying troops and supplies to the
Philippine islands, and decided to place
the matter in the hands of the sub-com-
mittee with authority to report in all cases
in which the war department may make
request that registry be granted. The
discussion in the committee revealed the
fact that there are several foreign ships
whose services can be made available
when considered desirable.
The action of the committee, so far as
it is concerned, will have the effect of
placing the matter in the hands of the
war department. for it was the general
understanding that in cases where the
department may express a desire to Sc
cure the services of any particular YES
sci there should be opposition. ma
jority of the committee are opposed to
granting registry to foreign ships under
ordinary circumstances, but they consider
a departure from the rule excuSable I'M
der existing circumstan and during the
war. tits understood that the arrange
ment will aid the department in securing
reasonable rates. The subcommittee hav-
ing the matter in charge consists Of Sen
atorS Frye Mcmillan, ElkinS, Gallinger,
White, Murphy and Mills.

the robbers were ordered to surrender
they opened fire with Winchester rifles
with deadly effect. One of the robbers
is thought to have been wounded in the
fight but both escaped, leaving their
horses When the news reached Santa.

Although it has been generally stat

seen. Business seems to be steady at
present and is shown by the number of
empty stalls in the roundhouse.
The California Limiteds, Nos. and 4
have not been taken off but it is expect
ed that they will be annulled about the
first of June or soon after. 1t has been
stated that No. II may be sent over the
main line instead of over the cut off

TOO MUCH GUSH.
Member of the Presbyterian Assem-
bly, Says It is Not Patriotic.

Omaha, Neb., May 27.-The patriotism of
the Presbyterian general assembly was
demonstrated during the yesterday after
noon session. DR.. w. T. Mallory of Chi
cago moved that the memorial programme
for today be completed in the morning
and that tonight be given over to prayer
for the success of the American arms in
the with Spain.
DR.. John A. Wilson of Mansfield, O.,
created something of a sensation when he
declared that there had been too much
"gush" already over the flag, and that
it was not especially indicative of patriot
ism. He moved that Friday be given
over to Sunday school work.
After sharp debate, during which DR..
Wilson refused the request of one member
to withdraw the word tgush' as applied
to the flag the convention adopted the
Malloy resolution to give up Friday night
to prayers for the success of the Amert-
can army and navy.

STUDYING THE FUTURE
Trainmen Think Larger Engines May
Lessen Number of Crews.

There has been some talk among the en-
glneerS and hremen and the train crews
Of some of the western divisions where
me larger engines are in service, the opin-
ION being that the coming of the larger
and more powerful engines will do away
with some engineers and train crews.
Ihey argue that the larger engines are
capable of hauling twice the tonnage of
some of the smaller engines and that as
1t Will require the same number of men
TO handle a train and the trains can be
SO much larger, it will do away with
crews.
