BOUQUETS FOR WICHITA

H. G. Clark general superintendent of
the Missouri Pacific railroad was in the
city few hours yesterday. He came
in from the west at HOS and left for
St Louis at 2:25. He is on tour of in
spection of the entire system. This is
the first time he has been in this city
for seven or eight months, owing to ILL
ness. 1T. Clark went through the new
passenger depot and the new freight
depot now under construction at the
corner Of Wichita and First streets. To a
reporter for the Eagle he said: THAT
freight house is a fine one. It is one of
the best on the whole system and your
people Will be proud of TIE building The
depot viii be the most convenient freight
house in the west on any road. It is
built of good stuff and well put together.
Wichita compelled US tn build that build
ing as they did the new passenger de-
pot. The business Of the road has in
creased so much in the past few years
that we simply had to bui;d. The new
passenger depot is a pretty nice one also
1t cannot be beaten in this state. It is
the best arranged depot in the state and
is Kept in fine shape. Wichita is grow
ing very fast and we are trying 20 keep
up with it,
Mr.. Clark looked with pride upon the
new depot and when asked about what
the company would do for this city, he
replied: Wichita is the natural center
Of the missouri Pacific business N this
rot ic Of
mileage and it viii net be long before it
viii be the headquarters Of the southern
Kansas division of the road It is COM
ing to that as fast as possible. We are
already concentrating as much OF our
business here as we can"
What about the shops that 1t is ru-
mored are to be built here in the near
future?' he was asked
Well" said the superintendent, 'those
shops are coming. bit 1t will be some
time yet, as a great many things have to
De arranged in regard to their size and
where they viii be located and as have
been on the sick list for several months
L cannot tell you much about them as
the matter is entirely in the hands OF
the general manager. I have not in
quired about them much. but I can tell
you they are coming and I believe the
plans for shops and roundhouses are now
complete, but 1 expect before they are
built. they will be changed soma. I can
not tell you anything about them. as 1
do not know how large they win be "
Mr.. Clark's private car was attached to
the eastbound train. Mr. Clark stood on
the rear platform as the train pulled out
and said to the reporter: Good day
1t is a mighty fine town you have here"

CHANGES ARE MADE
In the Constitution of Modern
TontieS.
POWER IS TRANSFERRED
From the President TO Board
of Directors.

The national council CT the Modern
Tonties held long session yesterday and
last night, and it was after 10 o'clock
when the delegates left the council cham
ocr for their hotels. The entire day was
spent in the discussion OF a new copsti-
tuition, which was voted on clause by
clauss, and when the council convenes
at $50 o'clock this morning # will still
have a large part of the constitution TO
consider
The most important respects In which
the new law OF the order differs from
the old are as follows:
The Offices OF guard, sentinel, and sec
Ond vice-president are abolished.
The offices of attorney and treasurer
are created.
The board of directors is invested
with greater power than any of the off,
GERS and practically all power is placed
in its hands. Before the recent reorgani-
cation practically all power was IN the
hands OF the national presidents.
The tenure OF the national officers is
reduced from four to two years and the
national council viii meet bi-enniaIly in
stead OF quadrenially. The basis Of state
representation in the national council Is
fixed at one for the first 800 members
and for each additional 500 or ma
jor fraction thereof At present the
basis of representation is one for tbs first
800 and one for each additional 1,OO0
An amendment Will be voted on today
providing for an increase in the rates
Of assessment and allowing two assess
ments month. At present one asses
ment a mont. is the maximum allowed
The national officers will be elected at
2 o'clock this afternoon. L S. Nafszger,
of this city. Is mentioned as a presiden-
tial possibility, but II was said by some
of the delegates last night. that he is not
a candidate for the position. DR.. II. n.
Miller. of Rossville, is a canu4uata for
president. William Glass, of Wichita,
but recently of Colwich, is a candidate
for secretary. DR.. J. Hunter Peak, OF
Louisville; DR.. Mcdonald. of Great Bend,
ard Or. T a McCleary, Of Colorado.
are candidates for medical director.

BETTER TELEPHONE SERVICE
Both Local and Long Distance, Prom
sed by the Hew System.

The new Telephone company wish to
call attention to the fact that the central
energy system, which they propose TO
build, is very different from that which
the people of Wichita are used TO and so
much better than the service rendered by
the old system, which is dear at any price.
Our residence phones on party lines OF
not more than four on line at 81 per
month, VIII give perfect service, and like
all our phones viii be on full metallic
circuit and will furnish long distance SER
vice. It is important, however. in a CEN
trail energy system that as little exposed
wire be used as possible In the construc-
ton of our plant we viii provide coniults
and cables for all phones for which we
have contracts. In order TO insure per-
feet service for the future parties who are
thinking of using our phones should see
Mr.. Finlay Ross. A N. Denny or any Of
their solicitors and sign a contract 50 that
their phones may be Installed while the
plant is building.

The sports will be a great feature.
\. B. Moore has located a bunch of the
widest horses that ever ran on four legs
and that can buck ike a rubber ball. He
had heard Of some professional bucking
horses that could do great acts, but they
would quit when they got tired. They
didn't suit him. He wanted the real
old. untamed mustang that would never
quit bucking while a man was astride Of
him and those are the ones he has locat-
ed. lie has also located lot Of daring
COW punchers who are willing to risk
their necks riding them. This will be the

How to take care Of the number OF wo-
men who are coming and to give them

the committees serious consideration. It
was finally decided to appoint Mrs. N. c.
