Is Burning Weeds ALSO Snakes.

The Santa Fe weed burner has Just
gone ever the branch from Abilene to
Salina. The big weed burners are
death on snakes. 1t Is a common
trick Of snakes to stretch out along or
between the rails to enjoy the sun.
The snakes are not bothered by the
ordinary trains, which pass over with
out hurting them, but It's different
with the weed burners. Mr.. Snake
may hear one coming but it doesn't
disturb him, as he thinks 1t is an
ordinary train; and after the jets Of
burning oil have passed over him it
is too late to do anything. He is a
frizzled snake, then.

RAILWAY TELEGRAPH OPERATORS

Quarrel that May Disrupt the Organf-

tancc to Labor Unions.

CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-The Record to-mor-
row will say: Troubles that threaten the
dissolution of the Order of Railway Te-
legraphers have arisen as an aftermath to
the recent strike on the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe system. The telegraph oper
ators who are still out as result of their
obeying the mandate issued by NJ. NJ
Dolphin, president of the order, are seek
ing official scalps, and President Dolphin
and the directors propose to punish those
operators who refused to leave their keys
by expulsion from the organization. The
governing officials of the Santa Fe system
have emphatically announced that they
will not treat with the Order of Railway
Photographers under the present administra-
ton. The operators who are on the trail
of President Dolphin and the directors
point out this fact as a point in their favor.
President Dolphin, it is asserted, will use
the argument that If his mandate had
been observed by all of the operators on
the system, the railway would not have
been victorious. 1t is said that fully 500
operators on the Santa Fe failed to walk
out on the request of President Dolphin.
IL. A. Tanquary, chairman of the te-
legraphers' board of directors, said: The
simply violated their obligations. and cx
pulsicns will be made by the various
lodges where the men had membership.
and every man who failed to obey the
mandate issued by President Dolphin will
be wiped off the lists.
