| Ames, March 12.-B. j. Wefers ar
rived at the college this week and will
commence work with the track team at
cnce. Altho a little tired from his long
ride, he finds himself in good health and
able to shake hands with our big husk-
| les without flinchng.
Wefers is man of pleasing appear
ance, rather slim, about five feet ten
inches in height, q years old. and mar
ried. During his soujourn here his fam
Ii lily will reside in Washington. He will
probably take up his abode at Professor
Lanphears. tho this has not been def
nitely decided. Perhaps we can not
better recommend him tnan to give a
short history of his very successful
athletic career in the cost.
His college life COMMANDED at Boston
Preparatory College, where he was a
member of their track team for three
years and captain of their football team
for two years. He went from there to
Georgetown University was a member
OF that track team for four years, and
captain every year of his class football
team, which never was beaten. Wefers
made the ball team of The university,
but was not allowed to NAY because he
was then a member of the track team,
and the rules forbid his belonging to
both at the same time. The team that
year won the championship of the East
ern Intercollegiate League.
The man holds worlds records in
every event from the twenty-yard dash
to the 300-yard dash, excepting the 100
yard dash, which was broken last May
by Duffy. He has run against and
beaten Crum of Iowa, Rush of Grinnell,
Maybury and Bradley. the English
champion, and in his last race with
Duffy beat him five yards He has
been a member of the N. Y. a. G. since
1895 and was holder Of the American
championship In 1895. 1896 and 1897, the
Metropolitan championship in 1895,
1896 and 1897. and the Canadian cham
pionship in 1895 and 1897.
Mr.. Wefers has just given up a posi-
ton as coach for the Boys Latin School
at Baltimore, Md. where he had been
training a very successful track team.
Out of thirty five boys he picked eleven
who won thirteen medals at the Boston
Athletic Club games and twelve medals
at the Washington interscholastic meet.
lr the latter it might be said the yonng
boys won out over a number of college
men who We're pitted against them.

The interview you refer to does an

that differs in any way from that with
other connecting lines.

with the c. NJ. & ST. p. Railway Co.,
our negotiations with that company
have been of the pleasantest. The ne

Quoted myself on behalf of the road,
and as for there being any friction,

in a gentlemanly and business like
manner and to the entire satisfaction

lIoines with the full consent of the NIL
waukee company and on terms that
were acceptable to US. If the author of
the alleged Interview had possessed
even q slight knowledge of railway
matters In Des Moines he would have
known that freight is not handled by
any of the roads from the Union de-
pot, but from depots of the respective
roads located elsewhere in the city.
Our company erected its freight de-
pot and yards east of the river be-
caues it could get more satisfactory
facilities there than elsewhere. The
attitude of the Milwaukee had nothing
whatever to 90 with our location. on
that side. We simply consulted our
