A WAIST SPECIAL.
STREET RAILWAY DAY.
Meeting of the Magnates in
Topeka.

This is street railway day in Topeka.
There are several important things go
ing to happen
b. F. Sunny, L. E. Myers and E. w.
Wilson are in the city, and at 4 o'clock
this afternoon, a meeting Of the stock
holders of the railway will be held for
the purpose of electing new board OF
directors for the company. The direc-
tors will then elect their officers.
c. c. Baker will be elected president
Of the company. There will be no new
company organized. 1t is simply the
old city railway in the charge of new
owners. The shares of stock have not
yet been transferred to the new owners,
but will be voted by means of proxies.
They have not been transferred because
the transfer books close thirty days
prior to an election of directors, and the
deal has been closed inside of the past
thirty days.
Mr. Baker stated this morning that
he and Mr.. Sunny have in their possess
sion a majority Of the stock represented
by proxies.
The meeting is not likely to last long,
and will probably be entirely devoid of
features.
This evening. two important meetings
will be held. The ways aad means COM
mittee of the city council will meet at
the council chamber and the CONNER
cial club viii meet at its rooms, and the
programme at both places is a discus
sion Of the proposed street railway
franchises. Mr.. Sunny. MI. Myers. Mr..
Wilson and Mr.. Baker viii probably at
tend these meetings.
The ways and means committee will
cut its session short, and adjourn to
the Commercial club rooms, where there
will be a joint session held.
Chairman George Neil of the ways and
means committee said today: Il be-
lieve that we can afford to take plenty
of time about this matter. l think that
the plan proposed by Judge Williams is
a good one. Let us refer the matter to
three competent attorneys, and get them
to assist the city in securing a good
ordinance, ,,

Mr.. HAYDEN NAMED.
He Is Appointed Probate Judge
Today.

r. r. Hayden of the firm of Redden,
AIcKeever & Hayden was today ap-
pointed probate judge to succeed w. e.
Eagan, deceased.
The appointment Of Mr. Hayden was
really a personal one with Governor
Bailey He had known the Hayden
family for years and seized the oppor-
tunity to reward one of its members
who had always been one Of his per-
s0nal friends
An amusing feature of Mr.. Haydens
candidacy is the fact that he was in
d0rsed by Congressman Curtis, d. W.
Mulvane and other prominent members
of the anti Bailey Curtis Burton ma
chine The truth of the matter is that
Endorsements didn't count with Mr.
Hayden.
The appointment has already stirred
up some trouble. The temperance peo-
pie made an organized effort to defeat
Mir Hayden and a meeting for that pur-
pose was held last night. Mr. Hayden
was for a time attorney for the jointists
and the temperance people fear that he
win encourage the joint drug stores.
The joint sympathizers also favored his
appointment.
He. is however, a young man of reCOg-
nized ability though he has lived in
Shawnee county only a short time, he
has a great many friends.
