strictly Denver train. A new train

According to the plans the new

carry second class passengers The
best of modern equipment will be in
the makeup of the train. some of the
features being a large dressing room
for ladies and smoking compartments
on all the tourist sleepers.

There will be a local train leaving

cede No 5 as far as Marceline and
which will follow No. 5 from

An east bound train will be in

will leave there at 500 p. m. and ar
rive in Chicago at 1 p. M. the next
day. This train will take the surplus
equipment from Nos. 10, 2 and 6. and
will relieve these trains of the local
work.
Another new train will be put on to
handle Oklahoma traffic between New

train will connect at Newton with the
new No. 9, and equipment for Okla
homa points will be handled through
from Kansas City.
Additional local service between
Newton, Kan. and Dodge City, Kan,
will be provided by new train and
the preset local trains Nos. $50 and
$40, between Newton and Dodge City
will be extended to run from Newton

ROYAL FEUD Barred.
Why the Duchess of Aosta Is Going to
Africa.

Lisbon, Nov. ia royal feud in
volving the beautiful Katherine Ell
kins, the rich American girl whose
name has been linked so often to that
of the Duke of Abruzzi, is being dis
cussed all over this city. The story
became public with the arrival of the
Duchess of Aosta, who came to Lis
bon to bid farewell to her sister. the
mother of the king of Portugal. Then
she will go to Gibraltar to Cairo. up
the Nile to Lake Albert Nyanza, and
then strike across to the mouth of the
Congo.
1t is announced that every effort
has been made and is being made to
dissuade her from risking her life in
hunting big game and in plunging into
African wilds, but that her passion for
hunting and exploring is so great that
all pleas fall on deaf ears.
However, there is another story
Princess Helene of Orleans, sister of
the French pretender and wife of the
duke of Aosta, a naughty woman, has
been made thoroughly miserable by
the tlwarting of her> ambition to cut
an important figure in Italy. She com
mitted a grievous error when she sar-
castically referred to Queen Helena on
the latter's mounting the throne as

He says as a result of the investi-

been employed.

cordingly went ahead with his inves-
tigation. AS does Parr, Anderson says
that while his Investigations were in
progress he was constantly Swallowed

that he was in danger of attack and

L. /. Anderson Claims Compensation
for Exposing Sugar Frauds.


New York, Nov. IA new figure

versy surrounding the investigation of
frauds charged to the American Sugar
Refining company Edwin l.. Ander-

docks for the company and a close
personal friend of the late Theodore

his attorneys that he is the man re-

he has been engaged in furnishing
evidence to the government and it
was through him. he asserts, that
Richard Parr. who now figures so
prominently in the case, gained his
information. Anderson absolves Mr..
Reynolds of any attempt to check the
investigation, declaring the former as

Montenegro. Naturally the queen re-
sented this and made her resentment
felt.
Afterward the duchess fell out with
her husband, and for some time they
have been living practically apart.
More recently the duchess took sides
violently against Miss Katherine FL
kins when the duke of the Abruzzi
asked the royal family to accept the
American girl as his royal bride. The
duchess declared vehemently:

SHE. KNEW RAILROADS.
Italian Girl Could Only Say 'Santa

railroads should be given credit for
the educational advantages they
afford. A pretty little italian girl
from the bunk car settlement near
the railroad yards showed up the
other day for the first day at school
at st. Teresa's. She was about five
years old and led a bashful urchfn
of about four by the hand.

asked one of the sisters of the new
arrival
Santa Fee was the prompt answer
that astonished the sister and set the
circle of children giggling.

of the little girl were dancing as she

veloped that the names of Hutchin
