"lt's All Up With Me-"

The Citizen, a few days ago, pub.
lished a brief item regarding the
tragic death of Nick Ritter at Ration.
The Ration Range of last Thursday
has this to say about his death:
"At Z O'Clock yesterday morning a
fatal accident occurred in the yards
opposite the depot. Nick Ritter, head
night s%witchman, was trying to cut a
string of cars pushed by the switch
engine when in some he
slipped and fell on the rails. He was
caught by the car and dragged a car
length when the engine was stopped.
Ritter was taken from under the car
and it was found that both legs were
cut off at the knees and crushed from
there to the body, together with
bruises about the head. He was still
conscious and said: It's all up with
me- A stretcher was at once brought
and he was taken to the Office of Drs.
Shuler & Hart, where he died in a
few minutes. Ritter had been here
three or four months, was a good
switchman and stood well with his as
sociates. He leaves a wife and two
children who live at Colorado City,
Colo, where the remains were shipped
Tor burial. He had been a switchman
for twenty-one years.

has resigned his position as store
keeper of the Santa Fe lines east of
Albuquerque, have presented him with
a handsome dress suit case as a token
of their regard. Mr.. Hilton was an
old employesof the Santa Fe and was
well liked by all of the men under
him.
Circulars were received in Topeka
at the Rock Island division Offices
which the appointment of
]. B. Fitzpatrick as assistant superin-
tendent of motive power, vice A. l..
Studer. resigned. Mr.. Fitzpatrick was
formerly the master mechanic at Hor-
ton and was recently transferred to
the northern district, with headquar-
ters at Cedar Rapids.
The Topeka State Journal says: Be-
fore A. F. Hilton resigned the posi-
lines east of Albuquerque, there was
some guesses made as to where N. NJ.
Rice, the new general storekeeper, was
going to have his Office. With Mr..
Hilton's resignation comes the solu-
ton of the problem. Mr.. Rice will oc-
cupy the Office vacated by Mr.. Hilton.
j. b. Rudert, station agent for the
Santa Fe Railway company at Fierro,
and Miss Lillian Glass, a young wo-
man living in that place, eloped last
Sunday night and were married at /
o'clock Monday morning at Central by
Justice of the Peace Crowley. The
| young woman's parents were opposed
to the marriage but went to Santa
Rita on a visit. The young people
utilized the opportunity to be married,
They have been forgiven,
1t was reported at Santa Fe last
Saturday that the wasnout on the
Denver & Rio Grande railroad be-
tween Espahola and Alcalde is more
serious than was anticipated. About
200 feet of the road-bed was carried
away and a volume of water twelve
feet deep is rushing through the
break. On account of this the work of
repairing the track and replacing the
bridge washed away is very difficult.
The washout on the Denver & Rio
Grande railroad between Espanola and
Alcalde is still preventing trains from
running over the road. There were
no trains to Santa Fee last Saturday
and the local representatives of the
company were unable to give out any
definite information as to when the
| service will be resumed.

U---..-
BIG MENTS.
About $2Q,ooo,ooo viii Be Spent Dur
ing Next Few Months BY New
Work Central.

Plans for the expenditure of nearly
500 ,00O,00 for permanent improve
ments and extensions on the lines of
the New York Central G. Hudson River
railroad have been prepared. 1t is ex-
pected that a very large part of the
projected work will be completed be-
fore the end of this year.
Including double tracking, sidings
and extensions of single track
branches, 297 miles of new track will
be laid. OF the sixty-eight miles of
new line surveyed, extensions of the
Beach Creek road to open new coal
fields in Pennsylvania form a large
part. Nearly 500 miles of line are to
be reballasted and surfaced anew.
The automatic block signal system
will be extended over 434 miles, while
~thirty-nine pneumatic and ffty-four
mechanical interlocking plants, in ad-
dition to those now in use, are to be
installed. Grade crossings to the
number of forty-four are to be elimin-
ated.
No less than 469 new steel bridges,
with an aggregate length of 1875, 600
feet, single track, are included in the
improvement plans. These bridges,
containing about 1884, 600 ON of steel,
will cost vel $4,000, 900, apart from
the new foundations which will be
built in many cases.
1t is estimated that 4S0, sos cubic
yards of concrete foundations and
wall will be required in the projected
betterments on the New York Central.
Fifty-two new passenger stations and
thirty-five new freight houses are also
contemplated.

were eighty railroads furnishing week
ly compilations OF earnings. Today
only ffty-fve roads publish such fig.
ures, so that twenty-five have disap-
peared. In a few cases this Is due to
the abandonment of reports, but in far
the greater number the reason is found
in consolidation.
The roads that have disappeared
were at one time big factors in the
railroad world. Their names were on
the tongues of investors and shippers
day after day. Now it is doubtful il
some are even a memory so COM
pletely has their identity been merged
in the systems of which they are a
part.
A partial list of such roads is of in
terest. 1t includes: rhe Baltimore
& Ohio Southwestern. Burlington, Ce-
dar Rapids & Northern, Chicago &
Eastern Illinois, Cincinnati, Jackson &
Mackinaw, Cleveland, Lorain & Wheel
ing, Louisville, Evansville & st. Louis,
Peoria. Decatur & Evansville. Pitts

mingham. Memphis & Charleston. st.
Louis, Alton & Terre Haute. Western
New York & Pennsylvania, Rio Grande
Western, st. Paul & Duluth, Western

Midland.
There are, of course, many roads not
mentioned in the list, but these alone
account for some 5000 miles of rail-
way. To them should be added the
Northern Pacific, the Burlington and
the Great Northern, all now in the
Northern Securities company. In all
there are to be included about %, 900
miles of roads, which have practically
disappeared as Independent concerns

Preacher a Player.

A few years ago many of the
Pacific coast papers were publish
ing entertaining accounts of the
doings of one Rev. Edward
Davis, who attained much prom
inence and netoriety as the
enamorado of Fayne Strahan,
formerly of Albany, and by Civ
ing an exhibition of dancing in
his pulpit in the Christian church
of Oakland, Cal as an illustra-
ton of his theory that mere
dancing in itself was not harm
full. On that occasion the Rev.
Davis donned his claw hammer
coat and in the course OF one OF
his popular Sunday evening lee
lures, waltzed a little as an object
lesson to his congregation.
Some of the members liked the
radical pulpit methods of their
postor, while others made strenu.
Gus objections to them; but all
agreed that he looked handsome
in evening dress. Some went SC
far as to suggest to him that he
might be more successful on the
stage as leading man than as
the leader of his flock. He
seems to have taken their hint
for late advices from the east
state that he has been appearing
at the Star Theatre, in Williams.

Surprised Senator Daily.

A little incident occurred last
Monday evening which illustrates
the esteem in which Senator
John Daily is held in this commu-
nifty. 1t was known that he
might be called to Portland any
day to take charge of the office
of surveyor general to which he
was recently appointed, and it
was felt that his departure should
be ftting1y observed.
Mr.. DAILY is not given to cere-
mony and display and his friend
ship is not of the obstrusive or
demonstrative sort, and his
friends knew that quiet, uncer-
emonious manifestation of their
regret at his leavetaking, and
some simple token of their re-
gard, would be more highly ap-
preciated and priced by him than
a public function would he.
It was arranged with friend,
with whom Mr.. DAILY was to dine
Monday evening, that he should
make some pretext to get Mr..
DAILY to his Office about 8 o'clock.
In the meantime friends to the
number of II or IS had assem-
bled at the Occidental. and
shortly before the specified hour
they went to Senator Daly's
Office and gained admittance by
means of pass key. When the
latter's approach was heard, the
light was turned down. The uu-
suspecting senator unlocked the
door and struck a match as he
stepped inside. He. was dumb
with surprise, when he saw his
office crowded with uninvited
guests. Then someone laughed
and the spell was broken. When
Mr.. Daily had been given time to
take in the situation, Professor
Lake, on behalf of those present,
presented him with a handsome
gold-headed ebony cane. Mr..
DAILY was deeply affected and ii
was with difficulty that he con
trol1ed his emotions when he re-
piled to Professor Lakes presen.
tation address.
Ali present congratulated Mr..
DAILY on his recent appointment
and expressed their high persona.

his new duties would necessitats
