Wichita worked a Kansas State league

In the second inning the Topekas got
a run without hit. In this inning tile
unusual record of six stolen bases in
one inning was pulled off. Two errors
were made by Wichita and one walk
was thrown in but the locals only made
one. Kunkel got life on Whites error
and stole second. Abbott was entitled

HARTMAN RESOLUTIONS
Directors of Union Pacific Express
Their Sympathy.

New York, Sept. 15-The directors OF
the Union Pacific, which E. H Harri-
man organized out of comparative
chaos and made the nucleus of his so,
600 miles Of railroad control, paid him
their formal tribute today. Yesterday
the directors appointed a committee to
prepare suitable resolutions on the
deathe of their former leader A copy
of these resolutions were first sent to
Mrs. Hartman at Arden and their con-
tents were made public.
The resolution follows:
Resolved, That the board of direc-
tors of the Union Pacific Railway COM
rany with deep sorrow records the
death OF Edward Henry Hartman. He
tive committee and president, which
offices at the time of his death he held
and had long filled He was the genius
of the new Union Pacific and Southern
Pacific and the high state of efficiency
to which these properties have been
brought, the part that is being perform
ed by them in the development of the
country they serve and the solid basis
Upon which the securities of said COM
JAMES now rest. are monuments to his
genius, marvellous energy and untiring
work in the interest of these compan-
les.
1T is Impossible to here record any
adequate expression OF appreciation Of
Mr.. Harriman's work for the American
railroad system, for it must form a
large and important chapter in the his
tory of our times. But we who were
intimately associated with Mr.. Harri-
nan appreciate even more the quail
ties which were less conspicuous to the
public. The Kindness of his heart, the
strength of his friendship, the quick
ness of his sympathy and his loyalty
to all his associates were traits of his
character so marked as to inspire the
devotion of all who knew him well, and
bis appiness in his home circle was an
inspiration and delight. We deeply
mourn his loss personal friend
and as the head Of these con. panies and
te nder to his family our profound SYM
pathy."

CROSS ERECTED TO MARvIH
seventy-rhree Miles South of where
He Was Drowned.

Battle Harbor, Sept. 15.-Comrnander
Peary spoke feelingly of the death of
Prof. Marvin of Cornell university who
at the head Of one of the supporting
parties broke through a lead Of thin
ice on the return trip. The body was
not recovered and his personal effects
were buried in the ice. A cross, bearing
his name, his college and the date of
his death, was erected at Cape Sheri-
dan, visible for miles. This is 70 miles
from the point north of Cape Columbia
where he was drowned.
The health of the party in general
was good. according to the statement
of DR.. John Goodsell, the surgeon OF
the expedition.
Two Eskimo children were born and
are still living. There was an absence
of scurvy. due chiefly to the experience
of the selection of the food and the sup
plies. In addition, there was an album
dance of fresh meat. Bartlett, Marvin,
Mcmillan and Borup suffered from
frost bitten feet more severely than the
others. Two of the Eskimos were dis
abled at Cape Columbia, one suffering
from frozen feet and the other from q
severe Inflammation. partly due to the
same cause. DR.. Goodsell gave them
surgical treatment and left them in
their igloos until his detachment 1e-
turned from the northern trip. He sup
piled them with ample provisions. They
greeted the return of the party with
manifestations of great delight.
One of the disabled Eskimos was
hauled on the sledges to the ship at
Cape Sheridan. a distance of 80 miles.
On this trip DR.. Goodsell slipped aid
strained the tendons of his foot and on
his arrival at the Roosevelt found an
Eskimo child with a fractured Shout
der. He had no trouble in keeping
busy. There were some cases of snow
blindness. also Commander Peary was
Ill for one day about six weeks pre-
vious to February Is which was the day
that Bartlett left the Roosevelt with
his division for Cape Columbia, the ad-
vance guard Of the dash to the pole
The surgeon was a little concerned
about Commander Peary's illness on
account of the approaching tramp, but
it proved to be nothing serious and ali
the men were in the pink of condition
when the start was made. Mcmillan
was confined to his bed for a month on
the trip through Smith sound imme-
diately after leaving Etah. He suffered
from a slight attack of rheumatism
fever. DR.. GoodseH also suffered from
the same complaint for some time.

BECAUSE IT'S CROOKED"
NM VAL
Retorted Cowboy When Asked How
Republican River Got Name.

This one comes hot from the bat:
Last night the smoking compartment
on Union Pacific train was filled to
its capacity with westerners who were
headed for the Topeka fair. Some one
had started to talk tariff and all
took a hand in the discussion, except
a western Kansas cow-puncher, who
sat back in a corner and ate nickel
cigars while the others famed out the
important question. One or two
"straw vote fiends attempted to get
an expression from the cow-punch,
but failed. Later they got tired hot
and original. Sandwiched into the load
of Kansans was a Boston man, return
ing from trip to the coast. OF course
he was of the faction which saw only
good in the tariff schedule, and he had
a plenty to say on the subject. Like
the others, he tackled the silent cow
punch. They were just approaching
Fort Riley, and the Boston man was
in the midst of a pro-tariff speech, di-
rected at the cow-punch, when they
crossed the river.
"By the way" he asked. "what river
is this?"
Republican" answered the cow
man.
REALLY, er-how did it get that
name?"
Because it's so blinkety- blim- blank
crooked" retorted the cow-punch-
and then "tariff'' ceased to be a topic
of conversation

CONTINUED from Page one,


when layraen and their legal ad-
visers are more fully alive to the i'm
portance of batter testamentary writing
litigation concerning wills Will De ma
terially less; testators will act with
more confidence; families will be more
harmonious; bcneficiarics Will fare pei
ter and executors and trustees Will De
more free from personal liability.
In selecting executors and trustees
the mind of the testator usually turns
first to his family, then to his friends,
business associates, legal advisers and
trust companies. In his family he is
most likely to find an element OF per-
sonal interest which strangers do not
possess. Yet so frequently are other
qualities absent that no general rule
can be stated as to the wisdom of plac-
ing post-mortem administration in the
hands of kindred. So much depends
upon the individual. the estate and the
will that each case must be a law unto
itself
Fortunately the testator is usually
the best fitted to judge of the situation.
For example. if the testator's estate is
small and is given absolutely to his
wife, she practically becomes the OWL
er Of the surplus and under ordinary
circumstances she may well be entrusr-
ed with power over her own. If, on the
other hand, the estate is large or some
what involved or trusts are present IN
the will, the necessity for outside as
sistance becomes more apparent
scribed the situation. He says: Char
acter and capita! are the best assets of
a trust company. Its officers and di-
rectors, therefore, should be men of
wide experience men who have been
tried and who devote themselves with
honorable zeal to the high duties OF
their Positions
Whatever we may think or say
concerning executors and trustees the
fact remains that administration of
property after death depends primarily
upon the testator. He may direct it
into any channel giving or Withholding
such directions, powers and discretions
as seem to him best. AS he has the
power he must accept the responsible
1ty. If he plans his will wisely, makes
sure that it will stand the strictest
scrutiny after death and selects his elS-
ecutors and trustees carefully, requ1r-
ing bonds where desirable, he may rea-
sonably expect satisfactory results but
not otherwise.
The trust company, after adopting
proper business methods and squaring
the human agency behind the corporate
name with the qualities which carry
confidence and make individuals de-
sirable for positions of trust, can rem
der no greater service to itself and tc
the interests 1t is to serve than by edu-
eating the public as to the Importance of
a sound will and the advantages of
corporate administration after DEATH"

drunk that he didn't know whether
he was in the city jail, palace or an
ice cream parlor, man. whose
name is withheld by the police for
the present, pending whisky in
vestigation, set fire to his cell about
3 O'Clock this morning and it re-
qiured the fire boys to extinguish the
flames.
The man had been arrested Il short
time before by one of the night
patrolrnen and he was smoking a
cigar. 1t is the supposition that he
went to sleep with the lighted cigar
in his mouth and that it dropped on
the mattress and caused the fire.

JOHNSON DOCTORS SILENT.
Refuse to Say Anything About the
Operation.

Rochester, Mimi, Sept. 15--Gover-
ror John A. Johnson was operated
upon in st. Mary's hospital here today
for adhesion in the abdomen and
slight hernia, caused by a previous
operation for appendicitis. The doc
tors announced that they would make
no report on the case before this after
noon. Mrs. johnson accompanied her
husband to the hospital and was with
Kim until the operation began.
Governor Johnson was on the
operating table nearly three hours.
He was returned to his room and an
nour l alter recovered from the
anaesthetic and asked for Mrs.
Johnson. Physicians who witnessed
the operation said that it was highly
successful although more severe than
anticipated.
An old abcess was found that had
left fistule in the abdomen and this
was removed as well as the hernia
growth.
