THEY DODGE THE LAW.
Pass Holders Make Argentine and
Armstrong Important Stations.

Since January l. when the new fed
eral law barred Interstate railroad
passes, Argentine, on the Santa Fe;
Armstrong, on the Union Pacific, and
Rosedale, on the Frisco, all at the
doorway of Kansas City, Mo-, have be-
come important stations. For at these
stations, statesmen and their retainers,
who formerly rode all the way into
Kansas City on their within the state
passes, now get off and take the street
cars the rest of the way. Occasionally
one takes the chance of riding through
but sooner or later the heavy hand of
The law will lay hold and fine of 81 900
notice For the law says that there
shall be no interstate free transporta-
ton, and the interstate commerce com
mission adds that a state pass may not
be used for a part of an interstate jour-
ney.
Wise men take heed and get off or
get on trains at the border. using street
cars the short distance over the line.
Sunday night, the little sation of Arm
strong was packed with waiting pas
sengers-"passes'- had ridden by
street car from over the state line At
Argentine even greater crowd was
waiting.
The conductors, especially of the San
ia Fe, are on the alert for the extra rs
cents east of Argentine. Free passen-
gers. who are checked to that station
must get off or pay the rest of the way.
Saturday afternoon the conductor OF
No. ia picked up $3.50. Others, who got
off at Argentine. paid only cents
By this order the railroad protects
itself For if the conductor should
carry passenger free across the state
line, his company would be liable to the
fine The company thus puts the re-
sponsibility up to the pass holder. III

DIES IN KANSAS CITY.
Margaret May Cross. Topeka Girl. VIC
tim of Blood Poisoning.

Miss Margaret May Cross, formerly
a clerk at the cigar counter of the Ma
tional hotel died in Kansas City Sum
day from septic poison. She was about
10 years of age and has lived in this
city for a number of years with her
parents, Mr.. and Mrs Joseph Cross,
in Oakland.
About month ago she left the Ma
tional hotel and accepted a position of
a similar nature in Kansas City. She
had complained of being i'll for some
time, though her condition was not
considered serious by her friends
where she roomed in Kansas City.
The parents of the girl were noti-
fed of her condition last week and
were with her at the hospital at the
time of her death. Miss Cross was an
exceptionally attractive girl and had a
large number of friends in Topeka
where she was popular, in her set.
