SLATED FOR CHANGE.
Rumor Has II That W. B. BiddIe viii
Leave The Santa Fe.
PROMOTIONS IN STORE.

There is likely to be some import
ant changes in the official staff of the
Santa Fe freight department about
January 1.
There seems to have been some
foundation for the m printed in
the topeka State Journal on Deem
Der 10 concerning the designations of
w. B. Biddle. freight traffic manager
of the Santa Fe at Chicago. AMI the
promotion Of F. C. Meagley. assist
ant general freight agent. located in
Topeka.
1t is now stated authoritativeiy that
Mr.. Biddle has received. an offer of q
position on some other road, which
he is seriously considering.
There is every reason to believe
that if Mr.. Biddle is changed to some
other position. Mr.. Meagley will be
made freight traffic manager.
Chas. w. Cook. Mr.. Meagley's chief
clerk, is slated for the position of as
sistant general freight agent in case
Mr.. Meagley is promoted.
When President Ripley vas in To.
peka for the annual meeting of the
Santa Fe stockholders on December
II he was asked concerning the re-
ported resignation of Mr.. Biddle and
Mr.. Meagley and stated that SC far as
he knew neither of them expected tc
leave the employ of the Santa Fe.
General Manager Nudge made the
same statement.
Today an official who is well posted
in such matters said:
There are going to be some
changes in the freight department
about the first of the year. What they
are probably can't be stated yet. II
MIR. Meagley is changed it will be a
promotion. He will certainly be re
tanned in the employ of the Santa Fe
and there is a general belief that he is
to get a promotion. Mr.. Biddle was
offered a position by another road not
long ago, but he refused it. However
there is likely to be something doing
before long"

train slipped about seven miles this
side of Pisgah. When Conductor John
Tway got out to locate the trouble he
found that the engine had died. 1t
was $3.50 in the morning and the situa-
ton was not pleasant. 1t was nee
essary to get to a telegraph office and
that quickly. There vas nothing for it
but to walk, to the conductor, armed
with his lantern and a bad temper,
started out alone.
When about three miles from Lavic
the conductor discovered to his dis
comfort that he was being followed
by some wild beast that hung close in
his shadow. At first he thought it was
a coyote and vas not greatly worried,
but shortly afterwards the beast wan
dered ahead and crossed the track
ahead of him. Then he saw that it
was a huge wildcat. The cats eyes
gave forth an ugly greenish glare and
the conductor began to wonder how
far it was to the station. His lantern
came to him that it might go out. All
the stories he had ever heard of how
to scare wildcats came back to him,
but none of them seemed to fit this
case, so holding the precious lantern
close to his ribs and pressing his cap
down over his slightly agitated hair
the conductor hurried. He reached
the station in safety, but the cat ac'
companied him almost to the door OF
the Office. Mr.. Tway did not walk back
to the train.

SAVED BY TATTOO MARKS.

Incidents Show Usefulness of These
Marks of Ornamentation.
In Pearson's an English expert in
the art of tattooing argues thus fol-
its utility:
often my tattooing has served a
useful purpose in identification. A
captain of the Royal Horse Guards
who was killed in the first Matabele
war was identified after many long
days by my work; while in the second
Matabele war a tattoo mark that
had made actually saved the life of
a client,
This gentleman had fallen into
decided to put him to death in a fan
ciful and unpleasant manner. But
my client bethought him of his tattoo
mark-a huge, grim devil that / had
worked on his back Pointing this
out to his captors, he declared that
this devil was his own particular evil
spirit, and that if they killed him it
would haunt them forevermore. A
short sentence in Arabic characters
on the sword arm is popular among
travellers of all kinds, as it acts as a
password in the far East, and wher-
ever the words can be read. Jack
Tars are all strong believers in the
use of tattooing for the purposes OF
identification in case of death by
drowning, and you will find on every

Good Fruit or Profitable Fruit.
Good fruit does not by necessity al
ways mean profitable fruit In fact,
1t is quite seldom that fruit is of both
good quality and profitable. This is
certainly the case west of the Allie
ghany mountains. East of that point
there are regions that grow both good
and profitable fruit. In that great
region known as .'The West" the
most profitable apples are those OF
only fair quality, but long keepers and
good shippers. In all this region the
fight for and against the Ben Davis
apple has been on ever since tnat
apple was originated. But in spite OF
the fact that it is not of high quality
it has made headway against all op-
position. 1t has pushed into all parts
of the country, has passed over the
Allegheny mountains and has invaded
New England in force. How has TINS
been possible, when it was SO roundly
dispraised? 1t was because orchard
planters had found it to be a very
profitable apple. They were always
sure of getting crop of apples when
they planted this variety. Moreover
it keeps so long that it can be held
for time of year when apples are
scarce, and at that time Will sell at
good price. The apple trees being
planted now comprise very large per-
centage of Ben Davis apples. even in
the New England states.
The same is true of small fruits.
The strawberry that is good for home
use is not shipper. The man that
plants must remember this. He may
plant one variety for his own use be-
cause that one is of high quality. He
plants another to sell, because it Will
bear packing, shipment and trans
shipment 1t is impossible for the
strawberry grower to put the best
quality berries on the market. They
would be spoiled before reaching the
customer. 1t has been found that the
good shippers are not generally Der
RES of great flavor or even beautiful
appearance. Men have been looking
| for fruit that would combine in itseli
all the good and desired qualities. We
| do not know of any fruit that has
come up to the demand in this regard.
| In fact, so far as this quest is CON
cerned, we seem to be as far from the
| goal as ever.

She was kneeling just inside the
fence, stirring and patting the already
prepared soil of a fower-bed with a
pearl-handled trowel, ordered especial

try And as she stirred and patted,
her lips murmured a few bars of
French labor song, and her brow
wrinkled and smoothed with the mo-

with the winsome, clinging beauty OF
the vine; and on her lips and dimpled
cheeks was the delicate bloom of out

Presently she arose and surveyed
her work critically, approvingly.
There were many little curves and
scallops and much scroll-work trace
ry. Certainly it was very nice and
artistic. All it lacked now was the
flowers.
The costly white gloves which
reached to her elbows were discol-
ored with the soil she had been ma
nipulating, and she regarded the
stains with pensive satisfaction. Then,
as approaching footsteps sounded
upon the sidewalk, she took the trow-
ell and made a dark line across what
she considered a too-large space of
