HOPEFUL FOR CHANUTE.
Santa Fe Business Would Increase
Through Katy Boycott.

Chanute, Kan, Aug. 31.-The Santa
Fe officials are contemplating a change
that will largely increase both freight
and passenger traffic over the Pitts
burg line that runs through Erie, says
the Erie Record. 1t is said that they
have made arrangements to run Santa
Fe trains over the Kansas City South
ern tracks from Pittsburg to Joplin
and will therefore handle all the bust
ness from the mining district over the
Pittsburg division. 1t is known that
the Santa Fe has entered into a con-
tract with the Missouri and Northern
Arkansas railroad for the erection of a
union depot at Joplin and they ought
to be able to run trains through to
that place within the next few months.
The change will greatly increase the
importance of the Pittsburg division
and will doubtless insure additional
passenger service on the line.

and Mrs. Martin Mara, who live at 715
North First street. Night before last
the Mara family fas awakened in the
middle of the night by a knocking at

downstairs. A young woman who ap-
peared to be much distressed, walked
into the room. Would you mind
holding the baby for a few minutes?"
she said, 'as have to go some place.
I'll be back right away" AS the
young woman started out the door,
Mrs. Mara asked her name. MY
name is Mrs. Newhouse," she said.
Mrs. Newhouse went away, and did
not return. This is according to Mary
Mara, who looks to be about II or
Is years old, and who is the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Mara. A reporter
heard that a baby had been left on
their doorstep, and called at the house
this morning Mrs. Mara was not at
home, but her daughter told of. the
manner in which the child had come
to them. She said that her father
wanted to adopt the child, and that
they probably would, but that they
had not made UP their minds. The
baby Is not more than week or two
weeks old. Mr.. Mara works on a rail-
road section gang.

21z inch rainfall here on August 20,
the y inch last Monday. the gath,
and a inch rainfall Thursday evening
in this county stops threshing of wheat
and for that matter nearly all other
farm work.
The corn crop in acres and pros
pective yield has never been so great
in the history of the county. 1t is
common claim Of many farmers that
they will have eighty bushels per acre.
While it is true there has been a
very disagreeabIe spell of wet weather
and muddy roads, yet no washouts
have occurred on either railroads or
wagon roads. Taken altogether Bar
ton county has never enjoyed greater
prosperity than at the present time.

MORAwITz IS CHEERFUL.
Santa F'e Chairman Sees Improvement
of Present Conditions.

Victor Morawitz, chairman of the
board of directors of the Santa Fe,
who has just returned from abroad
makes the following comments upon
business conditions as they effect the
railroads:
Recent railroad statements show
an improvement in the situation and
are fairly satisfactory. On the Santa
Fe, for instance, the tonnage of freight
originating on our lines is greater than
it was a year ago. That received from

fused to work for me. -.

you afraid you won't get your money?
'sThe tailor explained that neither of
my guesses was correct. He declined
to make my clothes simply because /
am a clergyman and require a clerical
cut. He let me down easily by stat
ing further that he never undertook
to make ecclesiastical garments, that

not have enough of that kind of work
to keep. them constantly informed on
