A Little Low Tune.
When you're q bit sad and the work goes

~. -IkkI0 .S" dItV
When you're a bit sad and the work goes
bad,
And your thoughts won't flow like a
stream,
And your eyes are blurred and your blood
unstirred,
And you can't go on with your theme,
Don't kick your chair In wild despair,
Or wall like a lonely loon;
Just think of the Joy that comes to the
And whistle a little low tune.
Don't whistle so loud you'll disturb the
crowd,
Or startle the cat from its doze;
Don't whistle an air that will bring de-
spafr
On the faces OF friends or foes,
But when you are glum and the work
won't come,
Don't think from success you're i'm
Just apprise your brain you're a boy
And Whistle a little low tune.

nounced its views as to a railroad
claiming to be a private carrier" The
decision was a denial of a petition for
rehearing in the case of Pat Chapelle
against the Louisville & Nashville rail-
road The commission says it cannot
recognize the right of the defendant to
claim exemption from the provision of
the interstate law as to any service
which it renders as a carrier Of per-
sons or property
IF it is a private carrier as to pri-
vate car or any class of private cars -
says the commission, 'it may carry
such cars free of charge or at any rate
that it may choose, differing and dis
tinguishing between each party or car
that it carries. Such construction of
the law absolutely nullifies it as to all
private equipment, whether carrying
passengers or freight.
"A carrier may no doubt lawfully re-
fuse to carry certain classes of private
equipment but it may not distinguish
between private cars that are owned by
negroes and private cars that are owned
by whites, nor between private cars
owned by Armour & Co. and private
cars owned by any other concern

SHIPPERS MAY LOSE WORK.
Railroads Take Advantage of Limit of
Interstate Control

Chicago, Nov. 2.-After winning a
fight for lower freight rates by two
years constant effort. western ship
pers are to be pushed back to their
starting point through action taken
by the railroads. and because the limit
of the interstate commerce commits
sion's control is about to expire.
The interstate commerce commission
law states that a decision of the COM
mission shall last two years and rates
may then be scheduled for change
again. Two years ago November 10,
the commission gave a decision favor
ing the shippers in the west. The mat
ter was then taken into the courts by
the railroads and last week the su-
preme court gave its decision, also
favoring the shippers.
Now the railroads have filed sched-
ules with the commission, setting the
rates back at the old point and the
fight must be conducted again.
The rates affected were included in
the Missouri river rate case. Shippers
throughout the middle west banded
together early in 1908 to fight rates
between the Mississippi and Missouri
rivers on freight from the Atlantic

Preparing for Big Winter Traf-
fic ts the West.
CARS ARE OF STEEL.
Every Protection Possible
Against All Accidents.
Other Items OF General Inter
est in Traffic World.

In preparation for the heavy winter
tourist business to Pacific coast points
the Santa Fe has ordered $1,OOO,OOo
worth of new tourist cars from the
Pullman company and will put the
new cars into service November 3, on
all lines west of Chicago.
The new cars will be electric hghted
throughout, will contain sixteen full
sections, with large smoking room
and women's boudOir.
In an attempt to make the tourist
cars as comfortable and as safe as
are the present Pullman coaches, each
car has been constructed upon steel
base, carried on full standard SIX
wheel trucks.
This is the first line to the Pacific
to be equipped with the modern type
of tourist coaches and the innovation
has been brought about to enable the
line to operate the tourist trains on
the same speed schedule as that oper-
ated for the California Limited, which
recently cut the time from Chicago to
Los Angeles from 72 to 6S hours.
The new innovation, taken in con-
junction with the recent order placed
for the delivery to the line of $780,
600 worth of Mallet type Baldwin en-
gines for the use of the western lines.
promises a new era in transcontinental
service.
The new engines that have been or
dered are really two locomotives in
one and are valued at more than S7O,-
600 each The initial order placed
was for forty engines and construction
on the whole order is being rushed to
completion.
With the delivery of the new cars
and the completion of the engine con-
tract, the Santa Fe will be in a posi-
ton to set a transportation standard
for transcontinental service.

DON'T LIKE UNIFORM IDEA.
Employees of Southern Pacific Object
to Brass Buttons.

San Bernardino, Cal, Nov. 2.-The
report that the Southern Pacific COM
pany has issued an order compelling all
of its station agents, ticket agents, ETC.,
to wear uniforms composed of blue
cloth caps, blue coat with brass but
tons and blue trousers has caused con-
siderable speculation among the rail-
road men. The order has not as yet
been received here and the men in the
city offices are now specializing as to
how the order is going to affect them.
While none of the employees of the
company will object to wearing the
uniforms specified several have ex-
pressed the desire that the order will
not be put into effect in the uptown
offices and the question has been the
subject of conversation among the en-
ployees since the time the rumor first
reached them today.

ENLARGE SHOPS IN OTTAWA.
Santa Fe Official Thinks Capacity
VIII Be Increased.

Ottawa, Kan, Nov. &C. B. Strohm,
superintendent of transportation of the
Santa Fe and E. Poison. engineer of
the car construction department, were
here yesterday from Chicago. They
are making q tour over the Santa Fe
lines, visiting the car shops over the
divisions. They will visit at Topeka,
Newton, Argentine and La Junta
among others on the tour.
In speaking of the work done here
by the ottawa shops, Mr. Strohm said:
"All of the work that has been turned
out here is first class. There have been
about 500 cars turned out here up to
date in this month. These cars have
been sent from all over the Santa Fe
lines and the repair work done on
them is up to the top NOTCH
Mr.. Strohm limited that probably the
number of cars sent here would be
greatly increased during the winter
and beginning next spring. With the
present force of workmen, about 500
cars are turned out from the local
shops each month. 1t is the desire of
the Santa Fe to double this number
if the men can be obtained for the
work. At the present time there are
about 345 men working at the car
works. This number is being added
to each week. If the number of cars
sent here were to be increased, 500
men or more would be necessary to ac-
the extra work.

Bonner Springs Cement Plant
Back to Owners.
Buy 1t in at Receivers Sale for
100000.
WAS A TRUST BUSTER.
Built in 1907 to Fight the
Combine.
Successful But Quarrel in Com
pany Resulted in Receiver.

Kansas City, Kan, Nov. 1.-THE big
Bonner Springs cement plant is now
back in the hands of the men and wo-
men whose money built 1t.
Several hundred men and women
who invested in the common stock of
the Bonner Portland Cement company,
the failed company, bought the plant
and the entire works this afternoon
when they were put up at auction by
Henry McGrew, the federal receiver.
The price of 100000, fixed by Judge
Pollock, which was to cover all liza
bilities except the company stock.
was the purchase price.
The reorganized company is to be
known as the Bonner Brand Portland
Cement company. which will proceed
to operate the plant as soon as the
sale is confirmed and the decree enter
ed by Judge Pollock.
The plant was bid in by Judge W.
B. Sutton of Kansas City. Of the $780,
900, $4,000 was paid in cash.
About six thousand seven hundred
shares of stock were issued by the old
company and paid for by the purchas-
ers. All except 1877 shares of this stock
are represented in the new company.
The actual transfer of the property
will take place when the new concern
has sufficient funds at its command
to pay off the indebtedness of the plant
and lift the receivership.
Inc Bonner cement COM
pany was organized in 1907 by w. H.
Caffrey of this city. 1t was to oppose
the cement trust. The plant built was
said by cement men to have few SUI
periors in America. It included sew
eral hundred acres of land at Bonner
Springs, in which were quantities of
stone fit for cement to last one hun
dred years. Besides, there were nu-
merous gas wells with which to sup
ply fuel for the plant.
The operation was successful from
the start. In time, however, the
stockholders, whose money had built
the plant and paid for all the proper
ty, complained that Canrey, the pro-
motor, in order to retain control of
| the works, had been causing stock to
be issued without consideration, to
himself and his friends.
The application for receivership
followed. It was granted by Judge
Pollock. Henry McGrew, the receiv-
er, showed the court by a. year of op-
Grafton that a profit of 5000 month
easily could be earned and all the
outstanding debts paid in a few
months. Then Judge Pollock ordered
| the sale and, incidentally, took a hand
in bringing about the reorganization
so the stockholders could have COM
plete control of the property

Compromised on Salary.
Abilene, Nov. 2.-When Miss Mabel
Aumiller signed a contract with the
directors of school district No. 50 to
teach the "Herat's Content school,
about a mile north of Abilene, there
were some misgivings among taxpayers
in the district as to whether enough
pupils would appear to make it worth
while to keep the schoolhouse open.
However, the matter had been
and everyone present save one family
voted in favor of employing teacher.
Supt. M. F. Aumiller, who attended the
meeting told the people it was their
duty under the law to have school 30
lon as there was a single pupil to
attend, and he reminded them that If
they failed to do this, it was possible
to divide the district and incorporate
the southern half of it with the Abilene
district thereby increasing the taxes
of persons residing in that half.
Just the same" he assured the peo-
your district will not be divided,
whether you hire a teacher or not
The Hearts Content school was
opened a few days later than the
schools in surrounding districts and
when Miss Aumiller, the teacher, went
to the building the first morning she
found it empty. She taught school all
morning to one pupil-and that pupil
was herself. The lessons was entitled
Patient Waiting and it was her own
fault of dicipline was not perfect and
recitations accurate. This was re-
peated every Monday, Tuesday, We'd
nesday, Thursday and Friday for 30
days.
BY that time. as not pupil had ap-
peared, Miss Aumil1er thought she was
entitled to a postgraduate degree. The
directors were called into consultation
and a new contract was drawn up, by
which the teacher agreed to a reduct-
ion in her salary, in consideration Of
being relieved of the duty of appearing
at the school house every morning.
Should any pupils appear during the
term of her original contract she can
be recalled to the school on full pay.
She is now helping her uncle, Supt.
Aun1iller, in the clerical duties of his
office.
