Santa Fe Begins Construction for shop

The Santa Fe is now engaged in the
construction of a foot viaduct, which
VIII be of great service TO the en-
ployes of the shops who live in Park
duct which has just been started will
give the employees who live in Parkdale
an opportunity to get TO the shops from
their homes and to return home with
out having to go west from the new
shops to Branner street. a distance of
over three blocks. and then return the
same distance before reaching their
homes, as a major portion of the en-
ployes in the new shops now have
to do.
South of the shops extends the right
OF way with three or four lines of main
track which il is often impossible n
cross South of the right OF way the
road is closed for some little space so
that it is impossible for the men to
return to their home by the most d.
rect route.
In order to obviate this difficulty
which causes many of the men to he
late to their work. the Santa Fe ~
starting the construction of the VIA
duct The viaduct will be steel strue-
ture. two hundred and fifty feet in
length, six feet wide and twenty-five
feet in height The viaduct will be
used exclusively for pedestrians. The
approach of the viaduct will consist or
steps. The viaduct will be somewha,
on the same plan as the one which was
erected by the Santa Fe as a croSsin3
over their lines on Second street.
The vfaduct will start south from the
freight car shops and will extend
across the main line. The viaduct will
lead to a small road which Is unnamed
and which is between Division and
SUygart streets The south end of the
viaduct will be near the grove north Of
Second street on Division. This win

Ends Litigation Covering a
Great Many Years.
HELD AS COW PASTURE
Put on the Market Within
Fifteen Days.
Thomas Kelley, Denver Banker,
the Buyer.

Papers were filed in the office OF
the register of deeds this morning oy
E s. Qutnton as attorney conveying
the title OF the Keith tract of land
near Potwin to Thomas Kelley, Dem
yer banker. and putting at an end the
litigation which has been in the courts
for years. This transfer means that
at last the title has been perfected and
that the so acre tract of land on the
east OF Potwin will within the next
fifteen days be plated and placed on
the market as residence lots
This piece of property was pur-
chased in 1855 by NJ s Keith as an
investment as It was one of the most
inviting in the vicinity of Topeka al
that time. 1t remained in his posses
sion until the time of his death IN
1859. and since that time II has been
tied up with litigation on account OF
the fact that there were number or
minor heirs in whose interests the
courts were appealed to-
The matter dragged on for years
and in the meantime Topeka has
grown up about one of the most de-
sirabIe building tracts in the vicinity
while it remained a COW pasture and
has never been further dignined tnan
a location for golf links The site has
been the source of envy to every real
estate man who has visited the city
and numerous attempts have been
made to purchase it by out of town
people but the question Of minor
heirs always spoiled the trade
There are so acres in the tract and
there are stories told of the fabulous
price offered for the tract during the
boom days of 'S6 and 81 when the
deal could not be contaminated on
account of litigation which has caused
all parties interested an immense sum
OF money The prices Of real estate
fell and the tract was turned into
COW pasture again and as such II has
remained since that time
Building sites in Topeka are becoming
scarce again and commanding fancy /
prices and this may have something to |
do with the interested parties getting 1
