the boarding house of the farm and
nearly tainted at the end Of the trip.
Goldstead, who also took care of the
swine, entered the pen where danger
Gus hog was kept alone. He fed the
creature and started to leave The ami
NAL rushed at him and with it's long
tusk ripped open his limb, inhicting a
cash three or four inches in length. The
muscles were cut clear to the bone
Goldstead bound up his wounds and
after walking to the house found his
shoe full Of blood and his trousers leg
covered with the same fluid. He was
taken to the emergency hospital and the

Fort Scott, Jan. 29.-The Missouri Pa

from Fort Scott to Topeka is to be the

Many western railroads have install
ed motor cars for interurban service
and others have supplanted several of
their regular freight and passenger
trains with the electrical equipped cars.
1t is time when electricity is forging
ahead of steam. The following an
nouncement regarding the placing of
the motor car service IS taken from the
Ottawa Republic;
The Missouri Pacific railroad has
adopted the Kosbushch-W agenhals
steam motor car for passenger service.
These cars will be run on suburban
service and on short run trains on all
its lines.
One Of the first routes on which it
will be installed will be the X N. IL
D., between Topeka and Fort Scott.
The motor is 50 feet inches long and
weighs 49, $50 pounds 1t is divided into
compartments for baggage, for smokers
and for passengers generally. The boil
er is of torpedo boat type and is fired
with crude oil. The motor truck is of
street ear IA Their than of locomotive con-
StructiOn. The car will soon be out on
a demonstration trip.
