Independence, Kan, June 15.-The first
train was run over the new Kansas,
Oklahoma Central & Southwestern
railroad yesterday. The steel rails
which are being put down and the ties,
which are the best obtainabIe, and the
excellent roadbed indicate that the
Santa Fe intends making it a main
line.
A contract was let yesterday to r.
L. Plunkett, of Coffeyville, for $50, 900
ties, to be delivered at BaruesVille, and
will be used on the road south from
there. The contract will amount to
about $4,000, and it will be quite a job
to furnish that number of ties. Other
contracts have already been let for ties
to other parties. Telegraph lines are
being put up fast as the track is
laid, and a telephone line extends as
far as the grading has been done, so
that the whole system is in direct COM
munication. The track has been put
down as far as Cotton creek, and the
train that was run over the line yeSter-
day was a work train from Caney. This
train will be run now every day and
will be kept constantly in use.
A special ran out to the end of the
line today with several of the officers
of the road on it.

Leavenworth, June 15-Judge William
C. Hook of the United States district
court has granted a restraining order
against the striking miners in the
southern Kansas coal district in the

to grant order until he had given
the application a more thorough ex-
animation. This morning he gave the
attorneys an additional hearing, and the
latter as soon as they secured an order
wired it's text to the clerk of the Fort
Scott division, where they had left

The Answer to Her Prayer.

I know you won't believe it,
But tel tel you boys, its s square
That gals belief in prayer.
You know our town of Kirksville.
ma And that cyclone that laid bare
A-fyin' through the air?
won't tell all that story.
Is known to all; but Kirksville went
Like blowing out a light.
My little gal just nine years old,
Was always great on singing -,
Her voice come clear and ringin.
And on that organ-don't know how
But she could play real tunes.
That she picked out while hangin' round
The church on afternoons.
She wanted a piano.
And she wanted it worst way,
Her ma and me would say.
You see I couldn't buy one
For the times had been too tough,
And all that 1 could scrape each day
Wasn't any moren enough.
But Morly's heart was set as rock
And on that very day
She didn't do thing but sing
And pray and sing and pray.
She prayed for piano.
For God would answer earnest prayers
And bless the honest home.
Then came that storm-yog know the tale;
While things were worst that piano come
A-burstin' through the roof!
The houses blew to pieces and
Went sailin' through the air;
But that piano stood right up
AS though twas planted there.
And when the storm was over,
And Molly understood,
She dropped right her knees and said
Il told you God was good.
And now you can't make Molly
Believe that is wasn't her prayer
That sent that Kimball piano
You see a-standin' there.

The Koran gives a story of some very
naughty fishes in David's time. Know
ing that the Israelites were forbidden
to catch fish on the Sabbath, the wicked
creatures came out of the Red sea in
unusual numbers and kept in sight of
the people all throughout the day in
order to tempt them. On the approach
of night they returned into the sea
again.
In a fatal moment some of the Israel
ties yielded TO the piscine blandish-
ments, caught several of them and had
them for dinner. whereupon David
cursed the Sabbath breakers, and God,
to show his displeasnre. changed them
into apes and pigs. For three days they
remained in this unpleasant condition,
when violent storm arose and swept
them into the seal ittsburg Dispatch.

One of Millions.

Once upon Il time there lived Il man
who wanted only few things that
every body wants. He wanted plenty to
eat and drink, leisure and the woman
he loved. But he found that to have
time to himself to make it possible to
live pleasantly with his sweetheart and
give her all he wanted and TO take care
of the children that they might have
to do all this he must have a great deal
of money. So he went to work and
built mp a great business, a very com
plicated machinery. To this money
producing machinery he was forced to
give most of his energy. 1t gave him
no time for leisure. no energy for en-
joying the sunshine his wife and chill
dren. But he began to enjoy the ma
chinery of his business.
When he had made a large fortune,
the only thing he enjoyed was the ma
chinery by which he could make more
money. He had lost his interest in the
things for which he began his business.
Perhaps he still had interest in food,
his wife and all the naive physical ard
sentimental pleasures. but it was a
blunted, dull interest. The only live
interest he had was his business. New

a Modern Mrs. MaInprop.

An interesting volume, with Pal
cite In Eastern Palaces" by f. NJ
Merrick, tells amusing stories of many
chimes. OF the western world was a
modern Mrs. Malaprop. pretty. amiable
and rich, who sat to the author for her
portrait. ''She told me- he says.
''that her husband 'hobnobbed' with
every body and told such cotton wool
(cock and bulD stories; that girl she
knew was training to be an 'archdea-
con- (deacOness); that she was obliged
to part with her cCachman because he
was such gay Othello;' that she had
india rubber tiles put ON the wheels
of her carriage; that a man she knew
was a regular 'marmoset' (martinet)
in his own house, and certain title
always descended from uncle to nephew,
as they invariably died childish. -
Among the numerous celebrities
whom Miss Merrick met in India was
Lord Roberts, whose antipathy to cats
gave rise to little story of metempsy-
chests. On one of his hCmeward voyages
Lord Roberts "asked to have the cat re-
moved when he came on board ship
and stranger. not knowing who he
was, said to Lady Roberts, Don't you
think that little gentleman over there
must have been mouse in a former
