BURLINGAN1E BOY BAND HERE.
Musical Organization Makes Hit in
Topeka.

| Probably no band attending the
State fair this year has aroused more
general enthusiasm among the visitors
than the Burlingame boy band, which
last night participated in the Semi
Centennial parade and earlier in the
evening serenaded the State Journal.
Not one of the thirty-one members Of
the organization is more than Is years
old and in Topeka they have produced
some top notch melody.
1t was about a year ago when @. E
Bratton organized the f'Burlingame kid
band" Hardly one of the thirty-one
boys who volunteered their services
and stayed in the band, could distin-
guish a jews harp from a tuba when
Bratton began to pound music in their
system. In sixty days the youn gsters
We're climb over the easier pieces in
the music book and in ninety days the
Usage county town began to expand
with pride. Since that time the Bur-
lingame Juvenile band has Travelled
smoothly. It is usually on the picnic
list in Usage county and attends the
political powwows-
When the Commercial club en-
ployed the Burlingame organization to
come to Topeka, few people here had
heard of the band. But the youngsters
made good. All along the line of
march last night there was an enthu-
siastic reception for the band. And
when Burlingame suddenly finds itself
on the map and talked about, it can
thank the musical organization that
represents the town.

SLIT HIS GAS BAG.
BalIoonist Was Unable to Make the
Rip Cord Work.

Auburn, Me, Sept. 13.-HaIf be-
numbed from a swift flight through
rain, hail and cold, and unable to make
the outlet valve or rip cord of his bal
loon work properly, H. Perry Shearman
climbed through the ropes, slashed the
silken bag with a knife and fell back
unconscious into the basket. The bal
loon dropped swiftly to the ground and
Shearman, resting comfortably at a To-
cal hospital, is able to tell something
of his experiences.
It was on a farm on the outskirts oe
this city that Shearman, who is presl-
dent of the Williams College Aero
nautical society, today ended the
longest balloon flight ever made in
New England by an aeronaut, unac-
companied. The distance from Pitts
field. Mass, where he ascended early
in the morning, to this city is approx
rnately 200 miles.
Soon after leayfuasz p fttsfield, Shear
mans balloon, the Springfield, ran into
a heavy rain storm, later changing to
hail. No sooner had he passed through
this than the aeronaut encountered a
very cold air current. Feeling the eff
fects of the exposure, Shearman sew
eraI times tried to descend but was un-
able to deflate the bag. His strength
was nearly exhausted when he finally
res0rfed to his knife

DENY ROCK ISLAND EXTENSION
western Representative Maintains a
Stiff Upper Lip.

san Bernardino, Cal, Sept. 13.-
Again the old word is passed about
that there's nothing doing on the
coast extension proposition of the
Rock Island-El Paso & Southwestern
system.
George w. Jepsen, western repre-
sentative of the company with head
quarters at Los Angeles, was here yes
terday on a business visit, and declared
that if such was the ultimate inten-
tion of the company, they are keeping
it to themselves.
Recently. however, they increased
their office force in Los Angeles from
two to about half a dozen Formerly
Mr.. Jepsen had little to do but sit in
the Los Angeles office, located in the
Gross building, while now he is on the
road most of the time, rustling busi-
ness in such a manner as would indi-
cate something for the future. But he
will not admit anything of the kind.
Jepsen thinks the destination of his
line is Phoenix, and that they will put
in a trackage and service that will eat
up the Espee business out of the Ari-
zona capital. He states no intimation
of a coast move has reached the Of
flee of which he is in charge.
But railway circles are still guessing,
and coming pretty nearly to it when
they say that the Southwestern will
soon be running into Los Angeles, ac-
cording to the rolling stock prophets.

G. P. TO NEW YORK AND BOSTON
Proposed Lease Would Give Road
Short Line to Port.

Ottawa, Sept. 13.-The directors of
the Quebec Central railway have is
sued the terms of a provisional agree
ment entered into with the Canadian
Pacific railway to lease their road for
999 years, subject to the approval of
shareholders at a meeting soon to be
held in London. England, and also to
the consent of bondholders and Of the
Quebec government.
The requirement of the Quebec Cen
tral will give the Canadian Pacific
railway a direct line from Quebec to
Boston and short line to New York
via Sherbrooke, Quebec, and thence by
the Boston and Maine. The main line
on the Quebec Central is 143 miles
long, running from Lewis, opposite
Quebec, to Sherbrooke, through a dis
trict where 80 per cent of the world S
production of asbestos is mined. It has
another line in Megantie. near the
Maine border from which it is pro-
posed to build a short line connecting
with the Maine Central, thus shorten
ing the distance from Quebec to Port
land about fifty miles It has still an
other line running up the Cnaudiers
valley, making total mileage of over
$50. The road is owned entirely in
England, and twenty years ago was
practically bankrupt. Russell Sage at
one time owned a large block of the
bonds.

St Louis, Sept. 13.-It will be recall
ed that when the Mexican revolution
was at its height railroad service was

Chihuahua and FL Paso than between
any other two important points on the

the revolution ended and track repairs
could be made, the company found It
inadvisabIe to begin at once the run
ming of passenger trains between chi
huahua and FL Paso at night, as 1t for
merly had done, and, therefore, arrang-
ed the service, beginning May 20, so
that the run between those two points
was made in the daytime. This neces-
STATED an all-night layover in Ch1hua-
