NEVER WILL BEAR REPETITION

Over Phone.

When the telephone bell rang the
senior partner said to the junior part

II you lay yourself liable to fine for
violent language"
The junior partner relieved himself
Of a few abusive epithets, but present
ly, after brief pause, he expressed
the same sentiments couched in much
milder terms. Said the junior part
ner:
There you go. crawfishing again.
Why can't you stick to what you said
in the first place."
The junior partner dropped the re-
ceiver.
"Supposing you come and say it
yourself" ne said.
The senior partner did so, but after
little he, too, repeated his harangue
with all the backbone left out.

QUICK WIT SAVED SOLDIER
Ready Answer Pleased Napoleon and
Disarmed indignation of Man
Whose Name He Assumed.

In the French campaign in Italy, in
which Napoleon l first began to win
the laurels which subsequently so
abundantly crowned his career, a
young Italian cavalry officer was taken
prisoner Having serious doubts about
his safety, it occurred to him to pre-
tend he was great parsonage So
he promised rewards to his captors if
they would insure his good treatment,
adding confidentially that he was the
duke of Modena. He was exceedingly
we'll cared for, and early next morn
ing was called before Napoleon, who
was somewhat puzzled at finding two
dukes of Modena among his prisoners,
for the real duke was also a prisoner.
The real duke angrily asked his cOun-
terfeit by what authority he had as
sumed the tile of duke of Modena.
The young officer answered:
your grace, the peril of my situa-
ton yesterday was such that had, I
known a more illustrious title | would
not have assumed yours"
The reply so pleased both the duke
and General Napoleon that he was for.

ORDER OF SUSPENSION
Issued by the i. C. @. Against Grain
Elevation Charges.

Washington, April 6.-Authoriza-
ton of the payment of one-fourth of
Il cent a hundred pounds to shippers,
by the railroads for the elevation of
grain at Missouri river transfers. in
Guiding Kansas City, Omaha, and 9TH
er places, has been suspended indie
finitely by the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
Only a short time ago, the commits
sion issued an order that the railroads
would not be permitted to pay to ship
pers at Missouri river points an allow
ance for elevation of grain of more
than three-fourths of cent hundred
pounds. This order was in accord
with a,-decree of United States SUI
preme court. The order, in addition,
provided that the grain on which such
an allowance was made should pass
through the elevators in ten days. Sc
rious objection was made to the COM
mission s order as it was pointed out
that little grain could be passed
through the elevators in ten days.
The commission said that the post
ponement of the order is made pending
a general investigation to afford basis
for an order against all carriers and
affected by the original order.

Southwestern Coal Mine Operators
Agree to Meet Mems Demands.

Kansas City, Mo-, April 6.-At a
meeting of the Southwestern Coal OPP
orators association here, the operators
agreed unofficially to grant the de-
mands of the thirty-five thousand coal
miners employed in Missouri. Kansas,
Oklahoma and Arkansas, provided the
demands are not greater than those
asked by the eastern miners. The
present contract with the miners ex-
pired April 1, but the miners are
working because of an agreement by
which the men are to work for thirty
days after the expiration of the con-
tract, during which any differences
may be considered.
The eastern miners are now voting
on a proposed new scale of wages"
said one of the operators. This scale
gives the men three cents more a ton
for coal they dig, and an increase of
5.26 per cent in day wages for what is
known as dead work that is work
in slate or dirt before coal is reached.
If our employees conform to these de-
mands we will grant them"
The. operators will meet with the
miners officials next week to go over
the question of a contract.

FILL BUCKS PLACE
New Santa Fe Official viii Be
Named Soon.
Now RumOred That He Will Be
Technical Man.
PURCELL is TO MOVE UP
He VIII Be Assistant to the
Mechanical Head.
Vice President Storey Has Kept
His Counsel.
PURCELL IS TO MOVE UP

1t is reported on good authority in
railroad circles in Topeka that a tech
nical and theoretical man will be ap-
pointed superintendent of motive pow
er on the Santa Fe to succeed the late
w. F. Buck. The name of the new
official has not been divulged. AS as
sistant superintendent of motive pow
er, John Purcell of Topeka, now SUI
perintendent of shops, Will be given
the place. H. W. Jacobs, present as
sistant superintendent of motive pow
er, will resign.
This is the story that is going the
rounds in Topeka today. Furthermore,
it is reported that w. B. Storey. jr.,
vice president in charge of operation,
will announce the change soon. Vice
President Storey has held up appoint
ment, it is said, because he has been
feeling over the country for a man
to head his mechanical department.
1t is believed in Topeka railroad cir
cles that it is the plan of Vice Presi-
dent Storey to have at the title head
of his mechanical men, a man who is
an expert on the theories and details
of machinery and motive power. AS
his assistant it is deemed advisable to
popular official-John Purcell is
chosen to handle this position.
Jacobs to Quit.
The lineup includes the probable res
ignatiOn of H. w. Jacobs of Topeka,
assistant superintendent of motive
power. It has been known in this
city for many months that Mr.. Jacobs
was anxious to get into other work.
1t is known, also, that his resignation
has been with the Santa Fe heads for
many months. But the road would
not accept it for many reasons First,
because Jacobs is one of the most val
liable officials on the road. He has
organized a wonderful set of compe-
tent young mechanical officials. He
has been the father of the bonus sys-
TEN and has made it a success on the
road. Second, because of the shake
up in other parts of the staff making
it essary that Jacobs remain in his
position to tide over the mechanical
affairs.
John Purcell as assistant superinten-
dent of motive power-or as as
sistant to whatever title will be used
for the new position-will remain in
Topeka. Here is the headquarters of
the working forces of the mechanical
the road is in better shape to handle
the active end of the work Mr.. Pur-
cell has few equals and no Superiors
as an executive and he will be in a
position to apply that ability.
The Topeka rumors do not venture
It is limited that Vice President Storey
Is not decided on this point. He is !
decided only on one thing-that he
will appoint a technical man.
This lineup of the mechanical de-
partment following the death of W.
p. Buck. is the first rumor that is ac-
cepted as authority in Topeka. But I'M
official announcement no one really
will know It is said that Mr..
Storey makes no appointments outside
of the official circulars.
