BOiIermakers Strike

Topeka, Kan, April 17.-A strike of the Santa Fe boilermak- CTS, on the line between Chicago and Albuquerque, in the interest of the "closed shop" was inaug- urated yesterday, The union officials declare that every boil ermaker on the line, numbering 200, went out, but the railway officials declare there is no strike.
 General Foreman Purcell. for the road, declared that business is dull, and work, consequently, scarce, and that a number ofmen had been laid off.
 The Santa Fe has but recently emerged from a fight with it's machinists over the question of the "open shop" in which the men got considerably the worst of it, and the bo1lermakers de- clare that 1t is the intention of the road to force a fight upon them in order to be free to en- ploy non-union men In other words. they claim that the road is going to "scab" the boiler makers as they have done the machinists.

GALVESTON'S GREAT
 SBA-W ALL
That City's Defense From Future Onslaughts
 of The Sea

Before June 3Oth of the present year, when the United States Government shall have complet- ed the extension of the sea-wall at Galveston, that city will rest secure behind six miles of solid concrete and be forever immune from a repetition of the frightful disaster of September, 1900, which destroyed 10000 lives, rendered homeless 15,O0O others, besides destroying every source of revenue in that city.
 Within four years the city by itselt has built and paid for four miles of sea-wall, at a cost of $1, 500, ,OOO, to protect lie and property from future storms. When the Government-whose holdings in Galveston amount to $1O,OOO,OOO- completes it's ex- tension, the wall will be six miles in lenght, it is sixteen feet wide at the base. five feet wide at the top, eighteen feet above mean low tide, with a granite riprap extending twenty-seven feet out on the Gulf side.
 An idea of the immensity ofthe structure is obtained when it Is stated that to complete it requir- ed 7,5OO cars of crushed granite, 5000 carloads of riprap, 2,5OO carloads of sand, 1850 carloads of cement, 18,OOO round piling and ten carloads of re-enforcing rods. The cars containing this material would make a train nearly a hundred miles in length.
 Galveston's importance as a seaport can be imagined when it is said that it has sixty one lines of steamers plying to foreign ports, two regular lines of coast wise vessels to New York and seven lines of coastwise vessels
 
 to ports in the Gulf. It has bet ter wharf facilities than any other port in the United States. The wharf frontage is capable of accommodating one hundred ves- sells loading at one time.
 Her exports are greater than Baltimore's, Philadelphia's or Boston's, being surpassed only by New York's and New Orleans. It is further stated that she took rank ahead of New Orleans in 1903, as a cotton port and fell only 100000 bales behind Liver pool, the greatest cotton port of the world. She stands second in cotton seed products, first in wheat, third in total breadstuffs, and fourth in live stock. At the

AriZOna's First
 Locomotive

The first locomotive used in Arizona came in by OK team pow CT, 600 miles from Denver, and Henry Arbuckle, who is at the Hollenbeck hotel, drove it for twenty-two years, says the Los Angeles Herald.
 "Yes, fancy l am the first man to drive an engine in Arizona" sad Mir. Arbuckle. "It was on the Colorado railway running from Clifton to the Longfellow mine and beyond. The rolling stock was hauled in from Colo rado before we got the engine. The road was all up grade from Clifton to Longfellow, so we hauled the cars up by mules and let the trains come back by grav- ity. When the engine arrived in 1879, l was given the job of run. ming it and I stuck to it for twen- ty-two years, not missing hun dred days out of that time.

A Secret Of Autborship,

II you will take out the magazines
that came Inst month, or perhaps the
month before-lt wouldn't do for me
to specify too closely-you will find in
one Of them an article signed by Il
certain great statesman whom every
body in Washington knows. The edi-
tor of that magazine wrote to the
great man, asking him to contribute.
The great man knew nothing what
ever about the subject suggested. He
isn't nearly SO wise as he is famous,
anyway, and he asked newspaper
man he knew to write 1t for him. The
newspaper man was busy, but he
spoke to a member of his family, fe-
male member, and she-well, she Just
exactly sat down and wrote an article
that has already been quoted far and
wide. The great man received the
credit, but l fancy the woman received
something more substantial. Anyway,
she is wearing new fur collarette
