Meanwhile a mile lower down a small

way against the current. A negro stood

of the business largely arose from the lack

other officers. This last, he said, would

Mr.. CHURCH HAS RESIGNED
Takes a Place With Pittsburg and

The first of next week Mr.. W. Q.
Church. who has been superintendent of
the Wichita street railway for about
three years. and who has resigned, leaves
for Kansas City, where he has taken an
important place in the freight Depart
ment Of the Pittsburg and Gulf railroad.
That he will be successful in his new pc
sition goes without saying to the people
OF Wichita who in the last three years
have seen him demonstrate an ability
under adverse circumstances such as few
men possess. Some three years ago he
gave up a position with the Santa Fe
here in this city to accept the superin-
tendency of the street railway, which il
was then thought was to be rebuilt at
once. As everybody knows It was not,
rebuilt then. The track became kinkier
every day and the cars more and more
like catastrophes on wheels. Making Of
schedule time was impossible; discipline
and regularity were as great impossible
titles as telephoning 20 Mars. Ny Church
stood between an irate and derisive pub
lie and a system that Vas as dHapidated
as a fine watch that has been hit by a
pile driver. The derisive and disguised
public was OF itself enough 70 wreck the

Church kept things going and above all
kept his temper and his gentlemaniy dis

were at the old cars, and irritating as
they proved 10 the employees. both the
public and the employees always liked
