GIRL CADETS.
Leavenworth High School Girls Are
Organizing.

Leavenworth. Nov. 16.-Leaven-
worth's high school girls propose to
emulate the boys and to that end pro-
poses to organize a company of cadets,
learn military maneuvers and become
a counterpart of the high school cadets
A few days ago one of the girls call
ed upon J. c. Daley, commander Of
the high school cadets, and asked the
privilege OF being permitted to drill
with the boys. She was told that it
would hardly be proper for her to at
tend the drill alone and she left stat
ing that she would get up a class for
the purpose of attending. She again
called upon Daley and asked him if he
would consent to drill a company of
girls and was answered in the afhrma-
tive
During the last few days the matter
has been talked over among the girls
until now there are about a dozen
ready for the new cadet company and
it is highly probable that enough girls
will join the movement within the next
few days so that the drilling can COM
mence.

RAILROAD NEWS.
Coal Situation Growing More
Serious Daily.
Cold Weather Would Mean an
Absolute Famine.
MUCH CONFISCATED
Railroads Are Compelled to
Take Fuel in Transit.
RAILROAD News Of a General and
Local Nature.

The coal situation in Kansas and the
central west is becoming more serious
every day In addition to a shortage
in output and the extensive confsca-
ton of coal by the railroads, coal deal
ers have now to contend with a scare
ity of cars for fuel transportation.
The mild weather existing at present
is a boon that people probably fail to
realize the value of. Should extreme
cold weather set in the condition of the
coal market would instantly assume
the proportions of an absolute famine
The immense traffic that the rail-
roads are now. and have been, enjoy
ing, is responsible for an enormous con-
sumption of fuel. Almost daily the
railroad companies find the supply of
coal at various points exhausted, and
cOnfscatiOn of fuel in transit results.
Hundred of car loads of coal have been
cOnfiscated by western roads during the
past few months.
The present prosperity results disas-
trOusly in another way to the mine
owners. Miners now take every OPP
portunity to absent themselves from
work, and thereby decrease the output
accordingly. There are no idle miners
to be secured to increase the mine for
ceS, and mine owners seem to be help
less in a sense at the hands OF their
men.
a member of one of the larger coal
firms in Topeka, operating mines in
southern Kansas. stated today that the
shortage in orders of his company now
amounted to 500 cars

stopped the train with a jerk that scatter

to keep the affair a secret but the ex-

DOCTORS TRUST.
This One Reduces Price of Vaccination
to 25 Cents

Pittsburg. Nov. 16.-The doctors of
the city held an important session this
week and formed a trust of some sort.
The reputable physicians of the city
were nearly all present and the object
of this gathering of the medics was
discussed.
It turned largely on the question Of
what is reasonable fee for vaccina-
tons. The price charged was so cents
and in some families the matter of
finance kept many from having their
whole families vaccinated as the board
of health desires in order to take as
much precautiOn as possible against
the spread OF smallpox in the commun-
ity.
It was agreed that the charge for
vaccination shall hereafter be only 25
cents in order to afford every person an
opportunity to safeguard their health
as far as possible.
This trust is not on the Hanna plan
extending beneficence in proportion as
1t advance prices, but works on the op-
posite order by lowering the expense to
the people and giving all an OppOrtun-
1ty Of partaking in its benefits

the shops are not moved from Horton

was the title of a paper read by Mr..

Perhaps the paper to attract the most
interest at yesterdays session was that

The principal paper for today's ses-
sion will be that of Profession Lucien
I. Blake on ''Electrolysis." Mr.. Blake
recently made a thorough examination
of the water and gas mains of Kansas

amount of damage done to them by

proven a great annoyance to water and
gas companies in various cities which
are traversed by electric street ear sys-
TENS, and no satisfactory remedy has
Blake believes that he has solved the
problem and has a remedy for the long
existing evil. For this reason his paper
will be heard with much interest on the
part of those delegates present who
represent either water or gas cOmpan-
les. Professor Blake has refused to
make known his remedy, but he asserts
that he can prevent future damage to
water or gas mains from electrOlysis.

COB PIPE SWINDLE.
Four of the Proprietors Convicted in

St. Louis Nov. 16.-After a hotly fought
trial four Of the defendants in the cele-
brated corn cob pipe case were found
guilty in the United States circuit court
of using the mails TO defraud The four
men are Henry Ringbeck, E W. North
stein, II. McElhaney and Arthur Miller.
One of the defendants William Ruff, had
already pleaded guilty
The witnesses brought in by the govern
ment came from a dozen states showing
how wide was the operation OF the
It was the plan of the defendants, as
shown by the testimony to write to the
mayor or postmaster Of atown telling that
q. corn cob pipe factory could be estab-
ushed for $1,000 and operated at small ex-
pense, while the profits were represented
TO be large The men whose headquart-
ers were at Washington. No, would then
offer to sell suitably machinery for 800 to
5000. In each case where a factory was
actually put in operation it was found
next TO impossible to dispose of the pro-
duct at all, so Overstocked was the corn
cob market The government alleged that
the price asked for the machinery was so
excessive as TO be fraudulent and that the
purpose of the defendants letters was to
cause an undue and inOrdinate demand
for ma cAlinery which really could not be
prOfitably used.

Meet in Norton But Organization Not
Completed.

Norton. Nov 16.-The Republican or
ganization of editors of the Sixth con-
gressiOnal district, organized in Colby
in April last, met in Norton, the pres
ident, c. V. Kinney, of the Oakley
Graphic, and Fred DuvalI, of the Nor
ton Courier, secretary, being present.
The organization was continued, the
decision being unanimous among those
present to not let up until every Repub-

of the assicatiOn. It is not the purpose
of the editors to make the Organiza-
ton a political one, but to get together
unanimously and work for each others
interests, and for the best protection of
the Republican editors of the district.
Other districts in the state have similar
organizations, and the Sixth district
editors believe they have as good a
right to get together on matters per

For many years the closest relations
have existed between J. W. Gates and
Mr.. Crimson, and when the former was
the president of the Illinois Steel COM
pany Mr.. Crimson had charge of the
railway lines controlled by the steel
company. 1t is but natural that Mr..
Gates, who has so large an interest in
the Gulf road, should want Mr.. Brim-

PRISONER IN MEXICO.

Trouble.
WALNUT valley Times RlDoradol

WALNUT Valley Times CElDorado) I
Ed Turner is still in jail at Oraziba,
Mexico, with no better show for his re-
lease than when he first wrote his wife
last summer. He claims that the Mex
lean authorities will not give him a
trial, but persist in keeping him in
prison without a hearing or chance
to prove his innocence or secure coun-
sci. Turner succeeded through the in
terventiOn of friends in getting the
United States authorities to intervene
in his behalf, but it seems they have
not been able to do anything for him.
Since he secured their intervention an
other engineer has been incarcerated in
this same prison. and he writes to his
wife that there are now four American
engineers confined in the Oraziba pris-
on and that their condition is becoming
almost intOlerable.

Many improvements are cOntempIa-

The first OF these viii be the taking out
of the south span of the bridge and the
strengthening out somewhat of the
main track, which at present makes a
