Santa Fe Discharging Macy Fin
PlOyes

The Santa Fe Railway Company
has opened the spring season by
discharging upwards of 100 of it's
old employees. both brakeman and
conductors IL has caught some
of the old passenger conductors who
for the past thirty-five years and
what makes 1t mysterious is the
fact that no reason is assigned for
the wholesale discharge.
1t is stated upon good authority
that the end is not yet and many
others are looking for the axe at
any time. Many of the discharged
ones started when young men as
freight brakemen and built them
selves up until they have grown
gray in the service, and practically
all of them were just on the verge
of getting on the pension roll. They
are thrown out at the time of life
when they are not expected to be
able TO get a position anywhere else
and 1t is said that some of them
have not been able to save a very
big stake for their old days.
Fifteen old-time conductors. who
have been in the service of the San
Ia Fe for many years between
Dodge City and Kansas City. were
recently discharged. among them
Geo. Conrad. who was for a num-
Der of years on Nos. and be-
tween Kansas City and La Junta--

A BANK FOR TWO BUTTEs

For some time it has been known

from Mr.. Gould some time ago rel
alive to establishing a bank here.
but nothing was published at the
time, until 1t could be definitely
announced. Since Mr. Gould sent
word by DR.. Sayler. who was in
Lamar last week. that he was
willing that it should be announc-
ed in The Sentinel that in the
course of two or three months
bank will be in full operation in
Two Buttes. Mr.. Gould is now
consulting with other financiers rel
alive to details OF the plan. Many
know. especially the many in Baca
county who do their banking at
the First National. that 1t has a
strong backing, being in the string
of the Thatchers, the strongest
banking interests in the west. and
that the men at the head of the
institution in Lamar are conserva-
tive, experienced bankers; so it is
conservatism that an institution
here controlled by them will COM
mand the confidence of the people
of the whole county. There will

wives him, was. before marriage,
Miss Elizabeth Gibbons. daughter
of Frank Gibbons, of this city.
The remains were brought to this
city Saturday night and the burial
took place Monoay morning in St.

finish up the last two days of court
from the adjourned April meeting.
Very few cases were disposed of,
the time being taken in taking up

special term of court in Meade

made here Saturday that we believe

of Harrison Turner for chicken

thief. The officers have been es-

catch thieves.

BASKET BALL SEASON
OPENED IN COLUMBIA
GINA. EASY winner
FRANKLIN ATHLETIC CLUB THE
FIRST VICTIM OF THE
SOLDIERS.
FINAL SCORE WAS 80 TO IA
Morgan and Witherspoon for Locals
Play Star Game-capt. Roberts, Of
r. A. c.. Did Splendid Work for His
Team, Aggressive and Defensive.

Franklin Athletic Club proved an
easy victim for the C. M. A. lads Fri
day afternoon at the old skating rink
on South High street. In the first
half the Athletics held the soldiers
to an even break, score being about
ten to eight in favor of the soldiers.
The superior training Of the Cadets
proved too much for the Athletics and
In the second half they ran over them
and pitched goal almost at will, but
the extreme weight Of the Athletics
was a great factor In their favor and
wearied the cadets to some extent.
Morgan and Witherspoon were the
sharks at pitching goals, and especial
ly was this SO with Morgan. He pitch
ed them at almost any position. Phil
lips played a fierce game at center,
and his opponent, Wells. was fully six
or seven inches taller than he and
had the advantage Of knocking the
ball In the direction OF his goal, but
there was almost invariably one OF
the cadets on the scene to prevent
any sehious damage occurring.
Every man on the team played a
fine game. Robert McAdams was put
In for few minutes in place Of Phil
lips and also for a few minutes in
place Of Eblen, but during that time
he rushed the ball and managed to
pitch one goal Gentry played good
game at guard and prevented his op-
ponent many times from interfering
with the man that had the ball.
Capt. Roberts, of the Athletics,
played a great game, and pitched four
of the seven goals made by his team.
Beasley was also formidable foe.
The game from sportsma's stand
point was q clean, hard fought bat
tie and each team was in the game to
i win. Line up and results.
