Conway Springs Citizens Chase
the Festive Bunny.
The Town Chose Sides and
Went Hunting.
KILLED 5S8 RABBITS.
The Noon Lunch Was Spread
on the Prairie.
Losing Side to Give the Win
ners a Banquet.

Conway Springs, Dec. @. One of the
annual sports at Conway Springs IS a
rabbit hunt, in which a large number OF
citizens take part. after choosing
sides" An annual hunt was held there
Wednesday in which 538 rabbits were
slain. Half Of the town of Conway
Springs turned out to enjoy the sport.
The hunting parties consisted or ten
men on each side to follow directions
given by the respective captains. They
were to hunt at will and the side that
killed the greatest number of rabbits
was to be banqueted by the losers.
Captains were selected and they chose
their men by alternate selection as
they would to play an old-fashiOned
game Of town ball.
DR.. r. A. McIlhenny was captain Of
one side and T. S. Beal Of the other.
Mcuhenny's men were James Peetz,
Charles Davis. George HaWorth, Bert
McNaughten, z. I. Cline, S. T. Pier
son, John Richards and Grant Lane.
This side killed 291 rabbits
BeaIs men were: J. n. Thorbro, Jake
Barnard, 7. B. Spencer Charles F,ow-
Ter, 7. A. Dodson, William Cline, Bert
Strong, L. Z. Clark and J. Hunt This
side killed 247 rabbits.
There were about fifteen honorary
members on each side, these being
mostly outsiders invited as guests.
The party left Conway Springs at 9
O'Clock with whoOp and guy and halloo
and plenty of dinner. A commissary
wagon carried dinner and nothing
more They all drank water at noon
lunch, which was spread out on the
prairie in the yellow sun Of Christmas
time, a blessing no other country on
earth knows but Kansas It was a
great day and the festive cotton tail
with his Iong-eared uncle, the jackrab-
bit, played Aguinaldo for two townships
around But the party bagged in all
538 rabbits.

holidays.

an increase of about SIS a car for trans
portation from New York to Chicago,
while the advance for coffee between
the same points viii be from % cents
for 100 pounds to so cents. with an in
crease from IS to so cents for smaller
amounts than carloads. These ad-
vances illustrate the tendency Of the
new rates.
The reasons for the change as stated
by the railroad men are the increased
cost Of supplies and equipment of all
kinds and the need of a better systema-
tizatiOn Of rates, which, it is claimed,
have fallen into Illogical classificatiOns.
It would be nearer the truth to say that
the plan has been adopted because the
companies see a chance for sustaining
it and thereby reaping larger returns
on stocks. In expecting that they will
be able to maintain the advances, they
probably are well advised, at least so
far as the trunk lines are concerned.
The harmony between the New York
Central and the Pennsylvania and the
mastery these lines have acquired over
others, give them a power as to rates
in the territory between Chicago and
New York that never has existed be-

Santa Fe Trainmen Request Raise of
Wages.

The Santa Fe grievance committees
of the Order of Railway Conductors and
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen held
a conference with General Superintend-
ent Nudge today, and at it's close an
nOunced that they would take their
demands to President Ripley and Vice
President Barr in Chicago. The mem
bers of the committees expect to meet
the executive officials in Chicago next
week.
Both the conductors and brakemen
ask an increase in wages, which
amounts to an advance of about Is per
cent. General Superintendent Nudge
informed the committee that he was
willing to grant an advance if it could
be found that the Santa Fe was paying
lower wages than other western roads.
An inspection of a comparative state
ment of wage schedules of a number Of
roads failed to disclose such a condi-
ton. The attitude of the grievance
committees is not particularly threaten
ing, but several members state that
they are determined to secure an ad-
vance in wages.

came along. The passenger train was
running slowly, having orders to pass
the freight at Lecompton, where the
accident happened. When the passen-

three rear cars were on the sidetrack.
The accident was probably due to

BATTEY is ENJOINED.
Sale of Martindale Real Estate Must
Be Postponed

The final sale of the real estate which
was turned over by William Martindale,
of EmpOria, to r. T. Battey, as trustee
for the benefit of his creditors, will not
take place at Emporia tomorrow, as
had been advertised by Senator Bat
tey. An injunction from the federal
court will cause its pOstponement.
Ford Harvey, of Missouri, has filed
an action in the federal court, directed
against Battey as trustee, stating that
he loaned c. S Cross $4,000 on July go
1898, and that Martindale signed Cross
note as security, and that the note is
now a claim against MartindaIe- The
petition also states that the sale as ad-
Vertised by Senator Battey will not re-
suit in selling the property to the best
advantage, as proper abstracts to the
real estate have not been prepared for
the inspection of possible purchasers;
the claims of all creditors have not been
definitely ascertained, and the method
of conducting the sale will not bring
about competition.
For these reasons Mr.. Harvey asked
for a restraining order to keep the sale
from taking place tomorrow and COM
polling the sale to be conducted in a diff
ferent manenr. The order was granted
bV Judge Hook.

Mrs RosendaI Waits $4,000 For
Injuries Received Through
Bad Streets.

Leavenworth, Dec. PA suit for s10,-
900 damages was filed in the district
court yesterday against the city Of
Leavenworth by Mrs. G. Rosendal.
The plaintiff claims she was badly in
jured by being thrown from a wagon
at Spruce and Franklin streets about
six months ago. She says she was
driving a light wagon along the road to
which was hitched one horse. Where
Franklin street opens into Spruce street
there was a crossing OF plank and at
the end of it the dirt was washed away.
In driving up the hill on the other side
Mrs. ROsendal claimed a tug of the har-
ness broke, letting her wagon go back
down hill and Overturn- She was thrown
out and the wagon fell on her ankle,
badly injuring it.
She says her foot is still badly swo1-
len and painful, and that it will dis
able her for life.
She also claims that the street had
been out Of repair for some six weeks
prior to her accident and that the ac-
cident was the fault of negligent city
officials. She prays judgment for So
900. The attorneys in the suit are

DOUBLE HEADER ARGUMENT.
Death of Conductor Thornton Used an
an Illustration by Tratnmen.

East Las Vegas, N. NJ, Dec. 22.-Con-
ductOr Thornton was run over and in
star1tly killed near Thornton.
Train No. SO was pulling into Thorn
ton. Thornton and F. F. Kinney, rear
brakeman, were on the way car, the
brakeman being on the side ladder. The
conductor came out of the cupoIa and
was facing west. The train stopped
suddenly, throwing Conductor Thorn
ton under the way car and killing him
instantly. His neck was broken and
left leg badly mangled. When picked
UP he lay under the way car, with the
head between the wheels of the truck.
Brakeman Kinney was the only eye
witness. The sudden stopping was
caused by the train breaking in two,
three cars distant from the engine.
There were thirty eight cars in the
train.
Conductor Thornton was one of the
best known and most popular railroad
men on this division.
This is the first accident with fatal
results on this division OF the Santa
Fe since early in 1897. One of the argu-
ments Of the trainn1en against the sys-
tenn Of double heading and hauling so
many loads is the liability of the train
breaking in two, and endanger life and
limb, and this fatality, the trainmen
here say, goes to prove the correctness
of their views.
