June IS. He has been in Europe for the
past several weeks on the first vacation
he consented to take since assuming
the management of the Santa Fe sys-
tenn affairs.
Mr.. Ripley will catch up with his
work in Chicago, and then make a trip
of inspection to the Pacific coast. While
his visit to Europe was essentially a
pleasure trip, it was his intention to
particularly note railroad conditions,
and it is not unlikely that some ideas,
picked up in England and the continent,
may manifest themselves in the work
ings of the Santa Fe.
On his return to Chicago President
Ripley will probably definitely settle the
matter of appointing a successor to the
late c. M. Higginson as assistant to the
president, or abolishing the office. 1t

Will decide not to appoint a successor
and abolish the position.
Mr.. Ripley will also probably settle
the question of train service into San

the coast will be put on as soon as the
line into San Francisco is oDened m
but it has not yet been decided whet Their
to make the new train a daily limited.
and abolish the tri-WeekIy limited train
service, or make it similar to train No.
l and continue the limited train service
as in the past.
The new line will be open into Stock
ton probably by July 1, but will not be
ready for traffic into San Francisco nm
til November l.

This same medicine cured my wife OF

truth
yes, yes, so they do replied the
minister and the two passed on.

PATHETIC APPEAL
Joseph Leach Tells Why He
Wants to BE Hanged.
Is Wearied With Continued I'm
positions of Other Prisoners.
HE WELCOMES DEATH.
Says Even That Is Preferable
to Jail Life.

Because he was imposed upon by the
other prisoners is the reason given by
Joseph Leach, the federal prisoner who
is confined in the Shawnee county Jail
on the charge of murder in the first
degree, for wanting to plead guilty and
be hanged although he maintains that
he is not guilty of the charge against
him. He brooded over his wrongs I'M
til he was ready to welcome any kind
of a change, even an ignominious
death. He says he would rather die
than be kept in the Shawnee county
jail.

WHITE SAVED RIVER AND HAIR
BoR BILL FROM DEFEAT.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

Call Headquarters, Wellington Hotel.
Washington. March 4.
It is not generally known that Sen
ator White of California brought about
the adoption of the Nicaragua canal
substitute provision, which not only
saved the river and harbor bill from
utter defeat, but secured a compromise
on the Nicaragua canal project. SEN
ator White was strongly in favor Of
the canal bill; but after consultation
with conferees on the part of the
House realized they would never yield.
so rather than jeopardize California's
prospect of securing $1,25O.000 in the
river and harbor bill he interceded with
his colleagues on the Commerce Com
mittee, Morgan and Frye, and the re-
suit was the adoption of Burton's COM
promise provision providing S1O00,u0O
for preliminary work and committing
this Government in favor of construc-
ton.
The Californians, as a rule. are we'll
pleased with the result of their lapors.
They not only secured large appropria-
tions for the removal of Arch and Shag
rocks in San Francisco Bay, but for
the Improvement of the Sacramento
and San Joaquin rivers, Humboldt and
San Pedro harbors, Alviso channel.
provisions for public buildings at Oak
land, Los Angeles and Stockton; for
protection of Yosemite Park, for light
stations and revenue cutters; Goat
Island naval training station, apd
number of lesser appropriations.
Each member of the delegation is en-
titled to credit for the work performed;
Loud for appropriations for Shag and
Arch rocks and Alviso channel; Hill
born, Oakland postoffice; De Vrtes. Sac
ramento and San Joaquin improve
ments, Stockton postoffice and Yosem-
ite Park appropriations; Barham, for
Humboldt harbor, and Barlow, for Los
Angeles postoffice.
Too much credit, however, cannot be
given Senators Perkins and White, who
labored zealously, and are entitled to
share the honors accruing to the rep
resentatives, individually and collec-
lively On the whole, the California
delegation pulled as much "pork" out
of Uncle Sans barrel as any delega-
ton in Congress, and each member
leaves for home we'll satisfied.
The bills of special Importance that
failed were the Pacific cable, arid lands,
reservoirs and mineral lands bills.
De Vries has organized a campaign for
the next Congress and feels certain that
the mineral lands bill will pass at next
winters session.

His Essence of Truth.

For many years the sage held to his in
vestigations. He sat at his desk in the
library with tones (whatever in the world
they are) heaped all about him. He un-
rolled manuscripts and studied them in
deep abstraction. He turned the pages of
many books. At intervals he would nod
solemnly and make note on the sheet
of paper lying in front of him. AT last
the frail body weakened under the strain
of unremitting. toll. The ancient scholar
took to his bed.
.'The end is near" said the physician
holding the thin, worn hand in his so that
he might lend the old student some of his
own courage.
II care not" whispered the sage, with
a smile of resignation. MY work is fin
ished / have proved it--as I said. On
my desk in the library. You will find it
there.
When his spirit had departed the life
long friend who had been chosen as eX-
ecutor went to the library.
There, upon the S.rewn desk, he found
the fruits of all the labor, the essence of
Truth which the scholar had extracted
hy wears of reading and research There
was the Finished Work. 1t was as fol-
lows:
