The Pension Bill.

The Washington correspondent of
Of the Wichita Eagle says:
The Grand Army pension bill, as
it Is known, is now a law. 1t was
passed last week by the house and
has been signed by the president.
This bill shows effectually that the
national administration and congress
are still the friends of the soldiers of
the Civil war. 1t shows that another
pledge made by the party has been
fulfilled. The bill Is called the
Grand Army bill because it was asked
by that order. It met with the full
approval of the pension committee of
the national G.. A. r. EIen like
General Daniel Siclzles came here to
advocate it, and that one-linabed old
hero is as pleased as person could
be at the prompt passage of the bill.
The bill amends the act of 1890.
The act Of 1890 provides pensions for
those who can not, CT find it too diff
fcult, to prove origin in the service
by the E'ifty-frst congress-, and is
sometimes known as the Morrill, bill,
the former governor Of Kansas being
at the time chairman of the com
mitiee on invalid pensions of the
house. It's maximum limit is $12
per month and the minimum So.
The two prominent features of the
amendment are: ASSreSat1nS dlSa
bilities, making it possible, where a
soldier is found to be disabled by
reason Of one thing at the rate of 50,
in another wise at the same rate, and
in third at So, also to be given pen
sion of S6 per month. Formerly, n
disability, of itself, had to show a Sc
rate OF no pension could be granted. |
The minimum limit of widows in
come to enable her to have the bene |
fits of the act of 1890, is now raised
from 500 per annum to $3.50. This
is a very just and fair provision, and |
will enable many deserving widows |
to obtain their pension of $S per
month. It is worthy of note that not |
a single vote was cast against this |
bill when it passed the house. This /
shows that it was deemod an act of |
Justice was being done. and is a
tribute to the house.

Santa Fe Engine No. 763 Said to he
Haunted.

Santa Fe engine No. 763 had been nm
coupled fIom the train and while she was
painting in the semi ark ness in the Union
depot yards last night, her fireman and
engineer, with faring. smoky torches
were looking her over and closing the oil
cups. says the Denver Republican. With
his fickering light the fireman was we'll
under the great machine when suddenly
the silent black thing gave little shur-
rem and began to move slowly forward
In moment the engineer was at the air
lever, jamming the brakes.
tsShe often does that-takes steam even
when the throttle is closed,'' said he, as
lie climbed down out of the cab. e.Close
call for you, Jim,' to the grimy fireman
who crawled out from underneath the
wheels. ''You aren't hurt, you?''
The fireman was not-and went OF with
his work, tapping bolts and feeling bear
ings.
..That is a bad habit-she is a vicious
machine, and you dare not trust her,
continued the engineer, turning his
marks toward the person who had been
watching him before the little Incl dent.
ssShe has killed her two men that way,
and is likely to kill more before she is
put in the scrap heap. In her young days
and that is not SO many years ago, she
did not show her failings often, but when
she did il was with results. 1 can tell you.
.sIn fact, she has reputation of being
haunted, and she comes well by 1t. 1t
was some years ago, down by La Junta.

time and we had stopped on siding. No.

engineer, and fellow named Perkins
fireman. For some reason the two had
scrapped and in dead earnest. It was over
girl, L think, and only because they
could not help themselves they went out
together on that trip. Perkins was fixing
the air between the engine and the train,
and Barker was taking it easy on the
grass, up the slope of the cut, when all at
once 763 gave little puff, and slid for
ward, yanking the cars with her. She
puffed again, and it was all up with Per-
kins, for he had leg and an arm cut off.
and his skull crushed No one was in the
cab but we all knew of the trouble be-
tween Barker and Perkins, and we knew
Barker. sGhost at the THROTTLE said Bar

RAILROAD NEWS.

Twenty-Five of the largest locomotives
ever brought into Chicago are being put
into service by the Rock Island road.
These new locomotives are to be used in
the fast passe niger and freight service be-
tween Chicago, Kansas City and Omaha,
and are constructed for both speed and
power. 1t is estimated that they will be
able to easily pull train of from II to II
heavy Pullman sleepers. at average
speed of so miles an hour.
These locomotives weigh about 300,
600 pounds and are of the compound ten
wheeler type The drive wheels measure
rs inches over tires They have high
pressure cylinders of 154 by IS inches,
and low pressure cylinders 26 by %
inches. From the pilot to the draw-bar
it measures 64 feet. The tender carries
$500 gallons of water and 10 tons of coal
It becomes necessary to use these large
locomotives on account of the heavy
trains being hauled. These locomotives
are of late pattern and are equipped with
all modern safety appliances, including
electric headlights, which will plainly
reveal an object a mile ahead of the
train.

When 763 gave warning wheeZe and

Kansas Flaur Mills.

There are few states which have a
greater milling industry than Kansas.
The mills OF the state will make enough
flour this year to supply 6,00o, 600 peo :
pie with bread. Last year A, ,OOO, 900
bushels of wheat were raised In the state
and 20, ,oOO, 900 bushels were ground up
by d arch 1 of this year. Six million
bushels was used for seed and a part of
the remainder was exported. Only the
inferior grade was shipped out of the
state.
There are about 800 flour mills in Kan
sas. These mills have combined capa-
city to grind 40, 600 barrels daily, or 10,
500, 900 per year. Their actual output
their possible production, which means
Kansas mills do not remain idle long at a
time.
Six of the largest mills in the state and
their daily capacity is as follows Topeka,
3 800 barrels; CoffyvilIe, 1910 barrels;
Atchison, $50 barrels; Arkansas City,
$50 barrels; Lawrence, $50 barrels;
Salina, 200 barrels. The other import
ant milling towns are: Winfield, $50
barrels; Leavenworth, $50 barrels; Great
Bend, $50 barrels; Enterprise, 500 bar
rels; Newton, 775 barrels; Oswego, 80
barrels, Wellington, coo barrels; Inde-
pendence, 575 barrels, Abilene, 500 bar
rels; Mcpherson, 425 barrels; Junction
City, 400 barrels
About so per cent of Kansas wheat is
hard wheat and makes the best flour.
Most of the wheat exported goes TO
Germany. The number OF Kansas mills
is increasing constantly, and this years
wheat crop is expected to exceed last
years crop by several million bushels.

The Fate of Brakeman MYERS, Who
Deserted His Wife and Children.

DeSerted Ills Wife ana Children.
From Albuquerque Citizen-
Perhaps the saddest case of retribution-
The Citizen has learned of for many
years, recently ovcrcame the late Charles
Myers, brakeman of The Santa Fe road.
a short time ago he was a residenu of
Albuquerque, with happy family OF u
wife and two young children, living at
No. 2O3 Tijeras avenue. His was to
San Marcial, where he generally laid over
a day or two. There he met of those
fallen ''angels'' of the opposite SEX thar
soon caused him to neglect his happy
little home in Albuquerque. His case
was reported to the railroad officials, and
he soon lost their good will and his po-
sition on the road He compelled to-
leave for other parts and look for a job
Taking his paramour with him he reached
Ell Paso where he passed her off as his
wife
In the meantime his little wife in this
city was washing and sewing to support.
herself and two small children.
At Ell Paso, Myers succeeded in max
ing friends of several members of the
railroad lodge, who proposed that do
nation of money be made to help a.
brother member and his sswife'' along
At a meeting held for that purpose
there was a member who knew Myers
real character and exposed him then and
there as fraud and a rascal, who had
left a wife and family pennfIess in Albu-
querque. It is needless to say the dona-
ton was not made, and the lodge made it
hot for Myers that he crossed the Rio
Grande bridge at Ell Paso to Mexico, TAX
ing his fallen s.angel'' with him.
After wander ing homeless and pennf-
less for several weeks in Mexico. he sue
ceeded in getting work Three days af-
ter he was a akeu down with small -0Ox of
the worst form
This was the beginning of the end of a
false husband.
He received medical attendance, but
his case was hopeless. His rawlings were
like those of wild man. He cried again
and again for his wronged and outraged
wife and children in Albuquerque, beg
gfng their forgiveness. His sufferings
were equal to ssDante's Inferno until
death ended all Two days after his par
amour died with the same terrible dis
ease, and they both now fill pauper's
grave down in one of Mexico's bleak and
almost forgotten graveyards.

The Waters OF the Nile OF America.
From Wichita Eagle.
The demonstration being made in
original settlers in the Arkansas
valley in Kansas to the waters of the
river as originally found flowing
when these settlers bought their lands
of Uucle Sam in good faith, seems to
be bearing fruit already. The secre-
tasy Of war, who has charge of all
river-ways, as also the secretary of
the interior, has become interested in
che proposed motion to be made in
the supreme court. In response to
Senator Harris resolution. the secre-
tary of the interior has sent to con-
grsss Acting Director Riser's report
of the geodetic survey made by him
of the watershed of the upper Ar
kansas. He reports that the Arkan-
sas river is very reliable in it's flow
and very regular in its floods, the
greatest annual food occurring in
Nav or June He finds that for the
past few years during the crop season
Colorado irrigationists have appro
priated most of the water, the river
often practically disappearing from
the west line of the state down to
wichita, where the Little Arkansas
liver, a stream which never fails nor
varies, comes to the rescue. The di-
rector reports that it Is feasible to
save in vast reservoirs the greater

After a test of quite number of
years serious objections are being
raised against wire nails 1t is
claimed that the cut nail will greatly
outlast them and that after a time
the wire nails rust off, owing to an
acid used in annealing them before
they are drawn. This is especially
noticeable on roofs where shingles
that are fastened with wire nails blow
off after a period of about ten years,
whereas those fastened with the cut
nail stand the test as long as the
shingles last. Carpenters, however,
will not favor any movement tending
to bring back the o1d-fashioned cut
nail, as the wire ones are much
cleaner, neater and more easily driven
into the wood.
