HOUNDED SANTA FE MAN
Now He Sues Lawyers and Others for
Damages.

Robert Mitchell has commenced a suit
against R. E. Massey, John c. Tut and
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe rail-
road for damages amounting to 81, ,5O0
for charges which amount to almost
persecution if his allegations are cor
rect. Mitchell is an employe of the
Santa Fe, or at least was until his
wages were garnisheed last month. and
as such earned $42 per month with
which he attempted to keep his wife
and family from starvation.
He became indebted to his grocery
man to the extent of $12 and a rock
railroad parlance amounts to a garni
shee. The suit was not brought in Shaw
nee but according to a shylock system
which has been in vogue for some time
was transferred to Kansas City, Mo,
the account being transferred to John
c. Tut.
When this mode of procedure is adopt
ed by the creditor it usually brings the
debtor to time as but few of the un-
fortunateS who are sued can afford to
fight the case through the Missouri
courts, especially as it frequently hap
pens that the amount involved is small.
When these cases are set for trial be-
fore some Missouri justice of the peace,
in the past it has been the custom for
the attorneys for the creditor to secure
postponements. This is one way of
forcing the debtor to liquidate and pay
the costs in the case which frequently
amount to more than the face of the
original bill.
Mr.. Mitchelrs attorney claim that
proceeding not dissimilar to this is be-
ing reSorted to in his case and has
started backfire which will in all pro-
liabilities cause the $12 suit to be drop
ped and a fight made on the defensive.
Several suits similar to the one filed to-
day have been tried and a verdict Sc
cured for the Plaintiff and the per
nicious practice of bounding Santa Fe
employees in this manner bids fair to
become unpopular very shortly.

The Secret of Prize Winning Pastry.

Fourteen prizes (nearly all of them
hrsts) out of fifteen entries of cakes and
fine pastry is record that any woman

Mrs. Chastain is the wife of the Master
Mechanic of the Western & Atlantic R r.,
and enjoys high local reputation for her
fine cooking. Not only does she use
cOTTOLENE in making cakes or crusts,
and other pastry but for frying chicken,
fish, ETC., she finds it unequalled. For
over nine years she has not had pound
of lard in her house, using COTTOLENE
exclusively.

SEE A WAY OUT:
Pittsburg Manual Normal Will Have
Money.

Ihe governor, attorney general, Sec
retary of state and other state house
officials held several conferences to-
day over the muddle resulting from
an enrolment clerks mistake in en-
rolling the appropriation bill for the
state normal schools of the state and
while arriving at no definite conclu-
sion, 1t was decided that the mistake
did not affect any part of the half
million appropriation carried by the
bill except that difference of some
$4,000 between the house and senate
over the amount Pittsburg was to
have.
The bill as agreed to and passed by
both houses of the legislature appro-
priated S121,O00 for the Pittsburg
school, The clerk enrolled the bill
passed by the house which only al
llowed Sill, 700 for the school, This
was the bill sent to the governor and
signed by him. The senate held out
for $4,000, but compromised on
$121,0OO and the bill was passed in this
form.
1t was the opinion of the attorney
general today that the only sum in the
bill affected by the mistake was the
$4,000 which was the difference be-
tween the house and the senate con-
would now have to go through as
passed by the house and disagreed to
by the senate.
Then the citizens of Pittsburg could
raise the balance of $1,000 cut off by
the mistake and could be reimbursed
by the legislature at the next session
as has been done in the case of the
university at Lawrence and the state
hospital at Topeka.
The attorney general did not regard
the mistake as a serious matter at all
as regards the entire bill nor the Pitts
burg appropriation, excepting only
$4,000. If this agreement is carried
out the Pittsburg Normal will get
$111,00O instead of $12T,OOO as the
legislature agreed upon after it's IA
nous all night battle the last hours of
the session.

Washington, March 23.-When the
house met there was slim attendance
which led Mr.. Macon of Arkansas to
suggest the absence of a quorum. AS
Mr.. Payne was about to continue his
explanation of the tariff bill, the Ar
kansas member said he should be
given a full hearing. The point was
not pressed, however, and Mr.. Payne
took the floor.
Mr.. Payne was piled with questions
from all sides. Again he was asked,
this time by Mr.. Moore of PennsyI-
vania, if there would be an oppor-
tunity to offer amendments to the bill
in the house, or Mr. Moore added

by reading the bill its general trend

What of Hides?
An instant later Mr.. Payne had a
sharp colloquy with Mr.. Garner, of
Texas who asked for an explanation
