Santa Fe Breaks a Few Records
Hauling Immigrants Into the
West and Southwest; $500
Go Through Topeka,

The Santa re company has been
taxed to accommodate the rush OF
w%est-bound and southwest-bound
homeseekers during the past few
weeks, according 10 q Topeka paper
which says:
The present cold wave seems 20
have little effect on the tide of nil
grafton to the west. Every two weeks
the different roads leading to the
west and southwest run excursion
rains for the benefit of homeseekers
ana special rates are made for these
tourists. rho trains are II ON the
first and third Tuesdays and Wednes-
days of each month.
Eighty-seven cars, including sleep
ers and coaches were necessary to ac-
commodate the homeseeking tourists
on the santa Re this week And these
extra coaches carried through Topeka
over thirty-five hundred passengers
who are seeking new locations in the
undeveloped west other roads We'd
with the santa re in the handling OF
the tourists,
The santa lee experienced a lot of
difficulty in getting the extra trains
through. In Kansas City the home
seekers were forced to spend In great
err part Of the day on account OF the
congestion. The porters We're kept
busy heating the cars and keeping the
lee water from freezing. Travellers or
this kind always carry enough to eat
in lunch baskets and shoe boxes, so
no casualties were reported from hun
ger.
In passing through Topeka the
homeseekcrs experienced a lot of trou-
BILE. The trains were kept passing
through the yards nearly all after
noon and night and taxed the capac-
ity of the local facilities. The Harvey
house employees were forced to work
overtime. Nearly every trainman and
engineman on the extra board was
kept busy. and there were few train
men who didn't have TO work, despite
the cold weather. One Of the trains
didn't get out OF Kansas city untn
midnight and went through Topeka
early this morning
At this time of the year the home
seeker business Is one of the heaviest
features of the passenger business.
Most of the tourists of this type are
taken to tho Panhandle country and
are scattered at the various points
along the new Relen cutoff. In the
eyes of the railway officials this is
the coming country and no efforts
are spared inducing colonization or

through Topeka Wednesday II is safe
to say that a good portion VIII settle

 MASS MEETING

A mass meeting was held at the Baptist church last night i'll the in- terest of statewide prohibition. No services were held at the other churches and the building was filled to its capacity. Dr. James A. Anderson, editor of the West ern Methodist, Little Rock, was the principal speaker of the even ing. In part he said that the pol icy of the Anti-Saloon League would be to stand on the prohibit tion plank of the Democratic plat form and insisted that the legisla- ture provide for a special election this year to decide whether or not the sale of liquor should be permit ted in the state. He also ex- pressed himself as believing that the majority of the general assem- ply would favor the special cleo tion and that when it was held that the prohibition forces would win by large majority.
 An offering was taken for the Anti Saloon League at the close of the services.

BOY ACCIDENTALLY SHOT
Nine Year-0ld Son of Wm. Hiett Finds Pistol and Fires Shot Through Body.

A distressing accident happened near Wooster yesterday morning when Wallace, the nine-year- old son of William Hiett, accidentally shot himself with an old pistol the lbullet piercing his body through. The boy, accompanied by a six-year, old brother, was walking along an old road, some distance ahead of his parents, who were taking the family to spend the day at neighbours. He found an old pistol lying In the road, and with boyish curiosity picked it up and began playing with it. With the muzzle held against his body, he attempted to push the hammer back and,the pistol was discharged, The bullet entered on the left side just below the ribs, ranged up- ward and came out through the back.
 Dr. George s. Brown of this city, who is attending the boy, returned at noon from a visit to him and re- ports the wound is a very serious one, though the symptoms are somewhat more favorable and the little fellow may recover.

 With no contest, save for the smaller offices, considerable of the attractions of other opening ses- sions of the legislature were remov- ed, but every legislator praised the caucusing plan which was used in the organization of both houses which removed the contests an q saved the state so much in time and expense.

At noon the members of the senate and house filed into the dingy old halls of the state house, and listened to the roll call. The legislature of 1909 was then i'll session, with the representation a more digni6ed appearing body than has graced the hall in former years.
 X. o. Pindall, as acting govern or, called the senate to order. Alter a prayer the roll was called and every member answered to his name. After a few words Presi- dent pro tenn, X. o. Pindall an- nounced balloting on the President would be i'll order. Jess M. Mar tin of Pope county was nominated, and having no opposition, received the full vote of the senate. George Trevathan was elected secretary without opposition and w. R. Rod Kelly was chosen as sergeant-at- arms.
 In the house 1t was practically the same story. Few absentees failed to reply to the call of the roll. Oscar H. Winn, as by pre- vious arrangement, made rousing speech in which he nominated L. B. Leigh of Pulaski county as temporary speaker. There was nc opposition and when Represents tive Leigh took the chair he inn mediately took up the question of the election of a speaker. c. P. Newton of Lonoke made a speech offering the name of Epps Browr for speaker. The nominations were closed and he became speak CT by exclamation.
 By tomorrow the senate Is expect. ed to be fully organized and the house is expected to name all O. the officers and appointees before tomorrow morning ends. The in auguration could then take place but it has been agreed it would be best to postpone 1t until Thursday afternoon.
 Until late yesterday afternoon it seemed as though A. c. Martin ol Yell county the lone candidate op posing F. F.. Brown of Prairie county for speaker, was to remain in the race to the end, but g caucas was held in his headquart- CTS at 5 o'clock and an hour later it had been voted to surrender ir favor of Epps Brown. A commit tee promptly visited the head quarters of Representative Browr and conveyed to him the sentimen of the caucus, A. c. Martin ex pressing congratulations for hi vict orious rival.
 The caucus of the Martin follow CTS was as touching tribute to candidate as could be given Those who supported him made talk afterstalk in which they spokC of him i'll glowing terms, and th' older heads counciled a continua tion of the fight. A. D. DuLaney and A. C. Marlin both favored tht cessation of hostilities and thei wishes were expressed in the vot' which followed, but several sup porters refused to vote for a with drawal from the race. The chic argument used by the intimate friends of Candidate Martin wa: that he could not poll as heavy g complimentary vote when it wa evident he was defeated, as he could when he was in the igh two days ago, and a small vot' would not be justice to him. l
