OLDEST ADMIRAL DEAD.
Thomas o. Selfridge, ST., Is Stricken
from the Retired List

Boston, Oct. 16.-Rear Admiral Thomas
o. Selfridge, U. S. N. retired, is dead
at the Mclean asylum at Waverly.
He was probably the oldest living off.
Ger of that rank in any navy of the
world, and there is no other navy which
had two adInirals, father and son, both
retired. The elder admiral was born in
Massachusetts and was appointed to the
navy from that state on January 1, 1918.
The son, Rear Admiral Thomas o. Self
ridge, was born February 16, 1886, and
Joined the navy at the age of Is. The
second Oldest son is Comma nder James
Russell Selfridge, born July IL, 1919,
and in the navy since 1864.
During the senior Selfridge's earlier
days he made some voyages in merchant
vessels. as the navy was considerably
reduced in ships for many years after
the war of 1872, and there was but scant
employment for the officers. He took an
active part in the Mexican war, and
\, severely wounded.
When the civil war broke out Commo-
dore Selfridge was too far advanced in
years to accept duty and he was as
signed as commandant of the Mare Is
land navy yard. 1S62-'64, and again in
1873. In the latter year all retired Off
GERS were withdrawn from active serv-
ice, and Admiral Selfridge resided at
Georgetown, s. c.. but for many years
he paid annualpvisits to San Francisco
where he had two sons residing.

MORE ROOM FOR KoUNs.
Per Diem Accounting Necessitates
Increase in Office Force.

Owing to the gradual increase in the
number of clerks employed in the Of
flee of c. w. Kouns, superintendent of
transportation of the Santa Fe. since
the adoption of the per diem system of
car accounting, it has been found neces-
sary to increase tire size Of the office
suite used by Mr.. Kouns' department.
About ten feet have been taken off
from the law library room of the legal
department, and added to the space
available for Mr.. Kouns' clerks. The
library has been supplied with a new
tier of shelves. so that a large number
of books can be packed into small
space The most of the Santa F'e's law
books are now stacked in a room about
six feet wide, and twenty feet long.
The amount Of bookkeeping required
to carry out the per diem system is
much greater than under the old system
Of mileage accounting, and has made it
necessary to employ d large number OF
additional clerks. The system is giving
good satisfaction. however. and when
asked today if there Is any disposition
to abandon it at the end of the year,
Mr.. Kouns said: There is not the
slightest probability that the per diem
system Will be abandoned. It has more
friends now than when it was establish
ed y

AUTO MEET AT ATCHISON.
Club Will Be Formed and Arrange
ments for Annual Runs.

Atchison, Kan, Oct. 16-The automo-
bile meet which was to have been held
here during the corn carnival, but was
postponed on account of the bad weather,
will be held next Sunday. The purpose
of the meeting is to organize a club to
comprise the autoists of this part of the
country for an annual meet.
More than thirty automobilists from
Kansas City, Topeka, Leavenworth, St.
Joseph and Hiawatha were to have been
here at the September meeting and it is
expected they will come next Sunday, as
there still exists the reasons for the meet.
Automobile sports are growing in interest
in the middle west and while winter Will
interfere with any big meets, this conven-
ton will serve to bring the enthusiasts
closer together and put the club on good
starting basis for next spring. If plans
carry, there will be a club run and racing
meet once year at least.
The AtchiSOn promoters of the plan ha e
suggested that the men from Kansas City,
Topeka, Lawrence and Hiawatna start
about 10 a. m. Saturday and take lunch at
intermediate points on the way here. The
st. Joseph and Leavenworth men start
after lunch and thus all reach here about
the same time in the afternoon.
A smoker for the visitors will be given
at the Elk club rooms at p. m. Saturday

formed, officers elected and the next place
of meeting decided upon. At $3.50 Sunday
morning a drive around the city will b5
taken. After the annual club dinner al

| be an obstacle race at the race track, fol
| lowed by speed contests in the variou;
classes. Appropriately inscribed and col
ored ribbons, representing the champion
ship of the club for 1902, will be awarded
the winners in the different events.
eWhile it is hoped that all may be able
to remain until Monday, the Kansas City
! Topeka, Lawrence and Hiawatha men
whose business requires their presence a
home Monday morning. could start Sun
/ day afternoon, after the contests, and
stopping at Leavenworth and other inter
