Equipment Boards Installed in
Santa Fe Offices.
Keep a Convenient Record of
Batteries and Telephones.
SANTA FEE TELEPHONES
Said to Be About 100 Private
Lines on System.
They Constitute an Important
Time and Labor Saver.

One of the new things which c. H
Gaunt, superintendent of telegraph OF
the Santa Fe, has caused to be 1nstl-
tuted in his department is g. pair OF
equipment boards, for the purpose o.
keeping an accurate. easily accessible
record of the telephone instruments ana
batteries which the Santa Fe company
has at all points on it's lines
The equipment boards have been man
ufactured at the Santa Fe shops in TINS
city, and were put in place in the SUI
perintendent's Office at the general OF
fees on Wednesday. AS soon as some
manufactured the tabulation will be
made.
The equipment boards are very sim,
liar to the boards in use in the general
superintendent's office to keep track ..
locomotives, and in the superintendent
of tranSportatiOn'S office to record the
movement of freight. car equipment
Each OF the new boards will be pro
vided with about 1850 holes of the
proper size to admit of the insertion or
a small plug with a button top. On
the top Of each plug will be marked the
kind of equipment which it represents
Other plugs of somewhat larger SIZE
will be made to bear the names or
towns. 1t will then be a, simple mat
ter to arrange the plugs SO that under
each town will be found an exact rec
ord of the telephone and battery equip
ment at that town.
The telegraph department already has
an accurate record of all this OutStand-
ing apparatus, but it is in record books,
and difficult of access. The proposed
equipment boards will place the full in
formation plainly and tersely before the
officials. 1t will take some time to prop
erly label all the plugs necessary to es-
tablish the system
1t is not generally known that the
Santa Fe railroad has about 100 indie
pendent telephone lines on it's system,
which it owns and controls exclusively.
These private phone lines are under
the supervision of the telegraph de-
Dartment.
I'VE have more miles of telephone
wires than most people suppose" said
Santa Fee man today, land the tele-
phone is an institution without which
a modern railroad would be seriously
Inconvenience. Here in the Topeka
shops, the superintendent of motive
power has a private phone line to all
of the various departments under his
control. In smaller towns there is
always a private line between the Office
of the agent and the round-house. II
the agent gets instructions to have an
extra engine ready for a certain time,
he simply phones the order to the
round house. 1t saves an immense
amount of time"
Supt- Gaunt is now on the Colorado
division of the system on an inspection
trip, and is expected to return Friday.

DOG IN BABY CLOTHES.
Ruse of Three Maidens Which Failed
to Work.

The San Bernardino Transcript says:
few days ago three girls, aged from
16 to 20 years of age, came over to San
Bernardino from Riverside on the after
noon Santa Fee train and were at the
station for several minutes while await
ing the loop train for Los Angeles. The
younger of the girls had what appeared
to be baby in her arms, and the fact
of SO young girl having a child at
tracted the attention of the crowd.
Finally one man walked leiSurely down
He moved quickly on the return trip
and reported to the men that the bundle
of soft baby clothes, including the little
white cap, did not enclose a baby at all.
but common dog, and not a very
pretty one at that Immediately the trio
of young ladies was the objective point
for all eyes. They did not seem to be
the least embarrassed by the attention
they We're attracting; on the contrary,
they never paid any attention and were
apparently ignorant of the curious
glances that were directed toward them.
The railroad boys predicted that Con-
train would fire that dog into the bag
gage car, baby clothes or no baby
clothes. Everybody who has Travelled
on the Santa Fe knows Smiling Bill
word for everybody. Well, when he
came along to those girls he could not
resist the temptation to make some re-
mark about the baby that was appar-
at the passing landscape. When he had
made the tour of the train he returned
to the baby and started to stroke it
under the chin. He nearly fell over in
the aisle when a low growl cane from
the soft bundle. and turning it's head
the dog showed some sharp fangs. Will
liam recovered from the shock, but the
laughter of the passengers caused a
rush of blood to his cheeks and neck.
He told the young lady that the baby
would have to go into the baggage car
as 1t was strict rule of the Santa Fe
company that no four-legged babies
We're allowed in the passenger coach.
Rut the girl refused to give up her pre-
cious darling and Rugged it tightly to
her bosom. The conductor argued, but
the girl was obstinate. Smiling Bill''
was entirely too chivalrous to tear the
dog from the girls arms, and he called
Brakeman Jack O'Brien to the rescue
JACK is not overwhelmed with scruples
when it is up to him to enforce the
rules of the company, and he promptly
carried the dog. clothes and all, to the
baggage car, while the girl cried as
though her heart would break

FRTAR LANDS SOLD.
The Pope Hears That They Are Al
ready Bought Up by Americans.

Rome, Aug. 7.-According to informa-
ton received by the vatican almost all
the real estate belonging to Spanish
friars in the Philippines was sAl be-
fore American occupation to syn,Hcates
and corpora tons duly registered and
legally recognized, headed by Americans
living in New York. 1t is alleged by
the same authority that although the
friars hold some shares in these corpora
tons, they do not own controlling in
terests. The vatican is surprised at this
1nforma ton, in view of Governor Taft's
proposition to buy the friars' lands
which apparently are no longer in con-
troll. 1t is considered remark able that
Governor Taft, fresh from the Philip
pines. was not aware of the situation.

STRIKE PROPHESIED.
Santa Fe Machinists Said to Be Plan
ming Walkout.

The Chicago Tribune said Wednesday:
IA general strike of the mechanics on
the Santa Fee road will be called tonight
if the conference between the officials of
the company and President J. E. Nc
Cornell of the union does not settle the
present trouble on the Texas division of
the road. The men want a nine hour
day and a scale of 37h cents an hour.
Should the conference fail every ma
chinist between Chicago and the coast
will be called out"
The report probably is without foun-
dalton. Topeka officials claim that there
is nothing in it.
