SANTA F,E Is ACTIVE.
Road Is Planning New Railroad Mer-
ger Project in Texas.

Austin, Tex Oct. 5.-In. addition to
the several hundred miles of new rail-
way which the Santa Fee is building in
western Texas, it has adopted plans
for an extensive enlargement of its
system in eastern Texas, according to
advices received by the state railroad
commission. One of the requirements
of bill which was passed by the last
legislature, authorizing the Santa Fe
to merge it's Texas & Gulf and the
Gulf, Beaumont & Kansas City lines,
was that the gap which existed be-
tween the two roads should be filled,
and that the Texas & Gulf should be
extended north to some point on the
Red river. BY building a twenty mile
extension of the Gulf, Beaumont &
Kansas City line, it is now connected
with the Texas & Gulf. which runs
north from Timpson to Longview,
where it connects with the Texas &
Pacific and the International & Great
Northern.

JoNEsEs HIVE RARE CHINA.
Salina Family Has Many Choice Sc.
lections of Ancient Ware.

Salina, Kan, Oct. Sin the home
of E. H. Jones at 25S South Tenth
street are a shaving glass and cream
pitcher which are over hundred
been in the family for several genera
tions, they are nearly as good as when
first made.
The mirror and pitcher were manu-
featured in Wales, the birthplace of
Mr.. and Mrs. Jones' They came to
America about two years ago, first
living in Topeka, and about a year
later moved to Salina. The heir1ooms
referred to were in the possession of
Mr.. Jones grandmother for many
years until she gave them to Mrs.
Jones' mother. The latter gave the
shaving glass to her son, and after
wards presented the pitcher to Mrs.
Jones.
The mirror has two representations
of the feur-de-lis the national en-
blem of France in relief on the sur
face of the glass. These ornaments
are probably to commemorate some
event relating to both French and
WEIGH history. The glass is arranged
that it can swing in a circle. 1t is
without a crack or flaw, although it
has been in constant use for many
years.
The cream pitcher is also without
mark or nick, in spite of the fact that
several generations have drank from
it. Its durability may be due to the
fact that it is made of heavy china.
1t is brown finished in bronze. Around
the center runs band of blue, decor
ated. at regular intervals with white
circles. The blue color and the bronze
appears to have been burned into the
pitcher when it was made as their
luster has not been dimmed by age.

Something to figure on" A banker
going home to dinner saw~a $40 bill
on the curbstone. He picked it up,
noted the number and went home to
dinner. While at home his wife re
marked that the butcher had sent a
bill amounting to $40. The only
money he had was the bill he had
found, which he gave to her and she
paid the butcher The butcher paid
it to a farmer for calf, the farmer
to the merchant, who in turn paid it
to washerwoman, and she, owing
the banker note of $40, went to the
bank and paid the note. The banker
recognized the bill as the one he had
found, and which to that time had
paid $50 worth of debt. On careful
examination he discovered that the
bill was counterfeit. Now what was
lost in the transaction and by whom?
