EMPoR1A AS A TERMINAL.
Santa Fee Changes Will Benefit That
CITY.

An order has just. been issued by the
Santa Fe railway which makes Emporia
the terminal point for engineers on the
eastern division. Engineers who have
formerly run from Argentine to Newton
will now run from Argentine to Emporia
when they will turn around and go back
to Argentine. And the Cottonwood
division, engineers who have formerly laid
over in Arkansas City will hereafter lay
over in Emporia- This order goes into
effect July l. and will be the cause of
several engineers moving their families
to this city.
Bids will also beopened July 1 whereby
the oldest engineers will be given the
choice of runs.
After the new order goes into effect en-
gineers who make the run from Argentine
to Emporia and return in sixteen hours
will be allowed additional mileage.
Arrangements for washing facilities for
the engineers on these two divisions are
being made at the round house here.

FOR A SYSTEM POOL.
Santa Fe Will Get All Possible Ser
vice From ENGINES

The new plan recently adopted by the
Santa Fe to run the engines over two
divisions instead of one as heretofore,
will be adopted over the entire system.
Until this order went into effect each
engineer had his own engine and his
runs and the runs of the engine were
confined to one division.
The reason given for running the en-
gines over two divisions is that a great
er amount of service can be obtained
and that it requires a smaller number
of engines to do the work.

Six schools Of Maine met in the eighth
annual field day Of the Maine Inter
scholastic Athletic Association, on the
Colby field. Saturday. The track events
were rather slow from the fact that the
track itself was in bad shape from the
recent rains. About 800 people at
tended the meet. The schools repre-
scented on the field were Brunswick
High, Edward Little High of Auburn.
Cony High of Augusta. Bath High.
Coburn Classical Institute of this city
and Thornton Academy.
For reasons best known to them
selves the students of Portland and
Bangor High schools were not on the
field There has as yet been offered by
Waterville High no reason why that
school was not on the field. It is sup
posed that&he reason was the delay IN
organizing this season, and the fact
that the school was not represented on
the field will be a good lesson for the
school to remember next year.
At The start it looked as though Co
burn would have a cinch on the whole
thing but Brunswick took on little
life at once and things someWhat
changed.
Cohurn led in everything for the first
half or more of the meet. Brunswick
began to score rapidly in the letter
part of the day and when the last
event was reached. which was the
running board jump, Coburn and
Brunswick were tie. Brunswick in tho
last event won third place by quar-
ter of an inch, Coburn being outcIassed,
thus giving Brunswick the lead and
championship for 1898.
