HAMILTON NAMED.
Appointed Division Master Mechanic
on Santa Fe.

William H. Hamilton, until the promo
ton here named took effect, was road
foreman of engines on the eastern divis-
ion of the Santa Fe, has been appointed
acting division master mechanic of the
same with headquarters at Argentine.
NominaHys he assumes his new duties
today, succeeding Milton Player, resigned.
The reorganization OF the mechanical de-
partment, however, will make his duties
different from that which the master me
chanic heretofore has held, being limited
simply to those connected with the round
houses. The office of this official has al
ways been in Topeka, but owing to the
large part of the motive power going over
the Ottawa cut off. the transfer has been
made to that point, where they can be
more expeditiOusly handled.
Mr. Hamilton began firing on the old
Kansas Pacific. now the Kansas City-Den-
Yer main line of the Union Pacific out of
Ellis, and was subsequently promoted to
engineer While running on the branch of
that road between LeavenWOrth and To-
peka his transfer to the Santa F'e was eff
fected and he took a run out of this place
on the Santa Fe.
His seniority as a Santa Fe engineer
dates back to June ]. 1888. Three years go
he was promoted to travelling engineer and
later, when the title was changed to road
foreman of engines, he held the same pO-
stions, the duties remaining unchanged.
He has lived in Topeka many years and
his acquaintance is extensive, not only
among the railroad people but with
others.

TOOMBS TRIAL BEGINS.
His Accuser Takes the Stand
and Tells of the Murder.

Chicago. April Robert Keissig,
whose accusation brought about the ar
rest of Louis G.. Toombs for the murder
of Carrie Larsen, last winter was placed
on the witness stand today. The court
room was crowded with people who had
come to hear the details of the most
revolving crime in the history OF Chicago
for years past. The prisoner appeared
interested but his interest seemed to be
absolutely impersonaL
A rope with which Keissig said the
unfortunate woman was bound and
pieces of iron with which the witness
said the body was weighted, were pro-
duced and admitted as evidence.
Keissig said that Toombs had gone to
an en- plOynent agency and having met
Carrie Larsen, promised her work as as
sistant cook on the boat Peerless. then
lying here fast in the ice. The boy Kels-
sig who was 10 years old aVerred thaO

Witness shuddered as he told the story
and there were many averted heads in
the court room. Attorney Barnes said
that this is the first time IN the history
of Chicago that such a charge has been
uttered against an alleged murderer.
Witness regained his composure when
asked to tell of the disposal of the body.
He declared that ToOmbs tied the rope
around it, weighted it and then ordered
Kefssfe to help him to carry it to hole
in the ice near the boat. This was done
and Keissig said that for some days af-
terward he was afraid to speak, fearing
that Tooanbs would kill him.

A GROW HATCHERY.

started by John wentworth, a farmer
living at GlenWoOd, Susquehanna cOun-

a good deal of money in the business
and to supply New York and Phiadel-

of these birds.
He has already made contracts to
supply a large number OF heads at 50
cents and wings at IS cents a pair. The
hatchery at present is comparatively
small, as he has only succeeded in cap
turing and raising 200 female and 20
male crows Next year he expects to
have 1900 of them on hand. They viii

CHOCTAWS IN NEED.
a Request For Aid For Ten Thousand
OF Tat Nation.


South McAlester, T. T.. April Gov
ernor g. w. Dukes, principal chief Of
the ChoctaW nation, has addressed an
appeal to Thomas Ryan, acting secre-
tary OF the interior asking for aid for
10000 destitute citizens of the ChoctaW
nation. The request comes as a surprise
as restitution was not known to exist
to sucn an extent. The governor says:
I have to report to you very grave
condition of affairs in the ChOctaw ma
ton A great many of the Choctaw peo-
pie are poverty-st stricken and some of
them are in actual starvation. Appeals
have been made to n e to aid them in
their distressed condition, some calling
to me to provide ways and means for
their sustenance, while others are driv-
en- to beg for breadstuff- Without auth
GRITTY or means to act otherwise, ] feel
ii my duty to seek relief for them at
the hands Of the department. Having
no means of knowing the exact num-
Der of our people who are in need. as
the iTnlyo yerished condition seems to be
general throughout the ChOctaw nation
I would say as a conservative estimate
that at least 10, 600 of them are in deS-
titute circumstances.
of course. there are some who are in
a worse condition than others. but If
the general distress is not relieved the
condition threatens to become serious
with them all"
As a means for relief the governor
suggests that the secretary use a por-
ton of the tribal fund accruing from
the sale of toWnsites. He thinks $780,
900 used by the department in the pur-
chase and distribution of breadstuffs
will be sufficient to tide over. his people.
He urges haste in the investigation and
probable action.
Unless congress amends the supple
mentary treaty now before it by which
the coal lands are reserved from allot-
ment and sold by the government. there
IS hardly any doubt but that the In
dams will reject the treaty when it is
brought back for ratification. The re-
lection of the treaty means another
long delay in the winding up of tribal
government and the settlement of the
Indian country.

DUG UP OLD CHEST.
searchers Again Hot After Capt
Kidd's Treasure.

New York. April IA gang of Ital-
ians at work on New York Central i'm
provements near Anthony's Nose, three
miles north of Peekskill, have, it Is re-
ported, unearthed an ancient chest
filled with silver coins of small denom-
ination.
The discovery led to a fresh outbreak
of the search for Captain Kidd's alleged
buried treasure, the search for which
has at various times caused the up
heaval of large tracts on Long Island
and along the Hudson.
The fact that the coins Just found
bear a date subsequent to the execu-
ton Of the notorious pirate at London
in 17O1, apparently has had little effect
in checking the lust for gold and the
demand for picks and shovels is said
to be Unsuitable in the vicinity OF
Peekskill.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR
From the New York Pressl

Arguing never convinced anybody
any more than quarreling.
Now the Lord took one Of mans ribs
to be woman and she herself took his
backbone.
If a woman had 81 dresses she could
discover some other woman who had %
and be unhappy about it.
Some people are so restless about al
ways wanting to go somewhere that
they would go to prayer meeting if there
was no place else to 60.
Some women are so unlucky about
raising children that if they kept them
locked in a safe they would be the first
ones in the block to catch the measles.
When a girl gets engaged to be mar
ried she is simply astounded to find that
the rest Of the world goes on attending
to its business in the same old way
