Returned To Chicago.

Rev. S. E. Busser, superintendent OF
reading rooms of the Santa Fe, has re-
turned from q o u of the system look
ing for proper locations to start read
ing rooms and has gone to Chicago to
report to President Ripley.
q The reading rooms have no connec-
ton with those operated and maintain
ed by the r. r. Y. M. G. A., but will
be conducted and maintained by the
Santa Fe railroad for the benefit of the
men and will be located, in many IN
stances. where there are no local Y.
M. @. A. rooms.
This is another of the innovations in
railrosding to be fostered by the man
agement of the Santa Fe for the COM
fort and welfare of those in it's employ.
The following are the points where
the first reading rooms will probably
be located: Chillicothe, San Bernar-
dino, Bagdsd. and Needles, Cal. Ark
ansas City, Newton and Argentine,
Kan; Temple and Cleburne, Tex.
Rev. S. E. Busser has full charge of
the reading room department and is an
excellent mau for the place. He is
we'll known and we'll liked among the
railroad men of the west, and has been
known in Kansas as "the railroad
preacher" for when the services Of q
minister are required by railroad men
he is often requested TO officiate and
never refuses. no matter how long or
tiresome the trip.-Topeks State

A TRIP TO
Yesterday Was the First Day of the
Year With the Celestia1S And
They Observed 1t According To
Their Own Ideas.

Toasted to their hearts content.
AS peculiar as it may seem the Chi
nese think they have one week in The
year when they have no spiritual
guide. They believe that all during
the year. with the exception of one
week, there is q spirit in every house
hold taking down all the good and bad
acts of the people who inhabis the
place. So profound are they in this
belief that they set aside one room in
the house for the spirit to live in. One
week before the New Year the spirit Is
supposed to leave this room and go be-
fore God in heaven and produce their
records for the year past. During this
week they C can up the occupied
by the spirit and prepare it for his re-
turn. On the morning OF the New Year
the spiri. is supposed to return and the
festivities begin.
The spirit had retuaned and the
There are several Cinnamon working
at the G. H. shops and some of them
are very bright men. They all live in
huts a short ways east of the shops and
the place is known a. Chinatown.
Several of the shop men called there
yesterday aud found the Cinnamon in
the height of JOY. They invited all
who called to feast with them and be
happy and in their own peculiar way
seemed to be thoroughly enjoying the
occasion.

'Have you stopped to think how many
passenger trains have arrived and de-
parted at this point today" said a rail-
road man yesterday. sit will open the
eyes of some when they learn that
twelve passengers trains arrived here
and ten departed, making q total of
twenty-five. The G. 81. & S. A. had
three in and two out, the Southern
Pacific had two in and three out, the
Texas & Pacific had TWO in and one
out, the Santa Fe had n in and one

N. E., one in and one
out; the Sierra Madre, one in and one
out. This makes the total of twenty
two passenger trains moved at this
point yesterday and when the fact be-
comes known q great many will be sur
prised. There are but very few towns
in the southwest that q tr%uthfully
say that they can equal US in railroad

The absence of the usual gang of

Leaving the lights burning in the

In Cuba.

Let us pray that Cuba will never be-
come SO thoroughly Americanized that
the pleasant system of shopping in
vogue there will degenerate into the
wild struggle for life and limb so char
aoteristic of New York shops. The ways
of the heather Chinee are not more be-
wildering to the American woman in
Cuba than the courtesy of the shop
keepers. Their perpetual p%oliteness is
as startling as it is sweet to the woman
hardened OF humbled by the pert at
tendants and the lordly foorwalkers of
the shops of her native land. Imagine
the emotions of an American woman
who went into a Havana shop to buy
something which the merchant did not
have in stock. Instead of saying he
didn't have it, didn't know where she
could get it and doubted if she could
get it at all, this obliging business man
