CASE DECLINES IT.
VIII Not Be President Kansas Central
Baseball League.

Abilene, Kan, Feb. 16.-C. A. Case,
the representative from Dickinson
county. who was recently elected as
president of the Central Kansas
league, has written to R. c. Gafford,
secretary of the league, declining 20
accept the position of presidency Mr.
Case gave as his reason that he is too
busy to properly look after the gov
eminent of the league and that he
would be away from the circuit during
part of the season.
The declining of the office will neces
state the calling of another league
meeting to choose a president and it
will be a difficult matter to find a man
that would have been as suitable as
Mr. Case, who is a fine fellow and an
enthusiastic baseball fan.
Concordia, Feb. 15.-The Concordia
Baseball association have elected Of
ficers for the coming season. DR.. A.
o. Sage, the president last year, was
reelected. John W. Goblet was elect
ed ecretary-treasurer. The president
of the Commercial club was elected as
a new member of the board of oil
rectors. The association this year has
a balance of $500 in the treasury from
last season besides paying for new
erandstard, rented grounds and financ-
ing the team through the season. This
means that Concordia will stick as a
member of the c. K. league with a
good team to start with.

1927 shop employees. In the Topeka
shops under Superintendent Purcell
5000 men are working-and 400 more
are wanted. This gives Topeka almost
halr OF the entire payroll on the main
line system. On all the lines of the
Santa Fe 5000 shop men are work
ing. This gives Topeka a third of the
entire number. The Topeka shops of
the Santa Fe are the largest in the
world.
OF the general officers there are SO
on the proper lines. Topeka has about
one-third of these in the general Of
fees here.
The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
has improvements under way in Kan
sas which will cost the company ST.
261,O The improVem entS consist of
buildings and yards in 81 towns. In
Topeka alone the Santa Fee is building a
thirteen story office building which
Will cost in the neighborhood of half
million dollars
In Kansas the Santa Fe is the great
est industrial institution employing
1860 people in the state. 1t is fig
ured at once that Topeka has one
fourth of the employees in the whole
state. The company pays the en-
ployees in Kansas $40, 100000 annually
and the taxes amount to $3.50, 900.
Including the employees of the Har-
Vey system, the Pullman company, OPP
Grating over the Santa Fe lines, the
various union depots, the hospital as
ISOLATION, the oil fields in California
and Texas, the coal mines, none of
which are operated by the Santa Fe
but are leased to mining companies
The number of men in the employ
of the Santa Fe must reach 100000
while additional thousands are engag-
ed in the manufacture of material for
these thousands and for the railway
company.
TT will he seen then that the Atch-
ison, Topeka & Santa Fe is one of the
greatest Industrial factors in the Unit
ed States today and means prosperity
to thousands of homes.

Syrup and Save p, by
Making 1t at Home.


Cough medicines, as a rule. contain
large quantity of plain syrup. If you
take one pint of graduated sugar, add
Y pint OF warm water and stir about
minutes, you have as good syrup as
money could buy.
If you will then put 21z ounces of
Pinex $50 cents WORTHY in a pint bottle,
and fill it up with the Sugar Syrup, you
will have as much cough syrup as you
gould buy. ready made for $3.50. 1t
keeps perfectly.
And you will find it the best cough
syrup you ever used-even in whooping
cough. You can feel it take hold-usu-
ally stops the most severe cough in "a
hours. 1t is just laxative enough, has q
good tonic effect and taste is pleasant.
Take teaspoonful every one. two or
three hours.
It is a splendid remedy, too, for
hoarseness, asthma, chest pains, etc.
Pinex is the most valuable concen-

which like similar volunteer commit
tees in frontier mining camps, aims to
make the streets of the metropolis
safer for citizens by restricting the
carrying of firearms and by the prose-

pose of restricting If possible the in
creasing number of homicides in New
York More than half of those appealed
to responded, while others including
John D. Rockefeller, expressed their
sympathy with the movement and
promised their moral support

the state to license all shops selling
deadly weapons and requiring that no
weapon shall be sold until the appli-
cant has secured permit in New York

A census just taken by the Atchison,
| Topeka & Santa F'e railway shows that
| at this time nearly 5000 people are
| employed in Topeka. On the entire
most 10000 people are employed by the

the big western railroad to the states
and cities through which 1t operates
The people of Topeka have known
always that the Santa Fee was the lead
ing factor in the growth and import
ance of TIE city. When they realize
that nearly 5000 people are employed
by the road here, that the payroll is
almost $4,000 a month or more than
81 900, 900 a year; that the Santa Fe
investment in this city reaches up into
the millions aud that improvements
amounting to almost three-quarters OF
a million dollars were made here IN
the year 1910, the real lace of this big
corporation in Topeka will be granted
"a place equaled by none.
Wanted-4OO New Men in Topeka.
And then there is another feature
of the Santa Fe'S position in this city.
John Purcell general superintendent
of the shops of the Santa Fe in To-
peka-the largest railway shops in the
worlds able at this time to employ
on sight about 400 men-skilled me-
chanics. carpenters and shopmen of
all kinds. Skilled mechanics especially
are needed and there is a shortage OF
help in the car repair shops. 1t will
be seen then that the Santa Fe would
bring 400 more men to the city if they
could be furnished-men who receive,
as a whole, big wages-men who would
support families. This means that on
a moments notice the Santa FEE could
increase the population of Topeka by
almost 1000.
On the Atchison and coast lines of
the Santa Fe-the real meat of the
system-55,S46 men are employed. The
Atchison and coast lines include all
of the trackage between Chicago and
Denver, Chicago and Albuquerque. AL
buqucrque and Los Angeles, San Diego
and San Francisco, thence down into
Texas and to Purcell, Ok. 8
The relation of Topeka to this big
system is seen by the census. On the
main lines of the Santa Fe there are
1881 general office clerks. In Topeka
alone 1155 general Office clerks make
their headquarters here. 1t will be
seen that Topeka holds about half of
the entire number The total number
on the entire Santa Fe system COM
prising all accessory lines are 3,341.
Still Topeka has almost half.
