BEACHEY FOOLS THEM
Makes Crowd Thinks He Had Fallen

Los Angeles. Cal, Jan. 24-Lincoln
Beachay played a CHASTITY joke on a
crowd that was still on edge as result
of the tragic fall of young Rutherford
Page Reachev rose to an altitude Of
about 400 feet, from which he made
sheer drop almost perpendicularly and
disappeared in the gully where Arch
TIoxsev fell to his death a year ago.
It appeared that Beachey had fallen,
and when he did not reappear after an
in terval of more than a minute, auto
mobiles loaded with doctors, mechan-
icians and reporters dashed to the foot
of the hill. Tt was fully three minutes
later when Beachey reappeared at the
north end of the course, flew past the
grand stand and laughingly waved to
the crowd which had experienced all
the thrills of witnessing an aerial
tragedy.

namely, the Wabash.
The Wabash railroad is in the hands
of receivers. 1t is extremely likely that
upon complete reorganization it will
emerge in no sense a Gould road. If
it does so emerge the Gould system
out west will have no road to Chicago,
the Missouri Pacific going only so far
east as St. Louis. But under the new
arrangement of the alliance with the
Denver and Rio Grande of the Rock
Island and the Burlington, both Mis-
souri, Pacific and Denver and Rio
Grande and Western Pacific, also a
subsidiary property, will have better
facilities for entering Chicago than
were provided by the Wabash.

How Western Kansas Men Have Sold
Branches to System Lines.


Branches to System Lines.
Hutchinson, Kan, Jan. 24.-"That
long talked of north and south rail-
road across western Kansas will soon
be a fact remarked Ralph FaXon,
editor of the Garden City Telegram,
who was in Hutchinson.
He pointed to the map Already
ninety miles of the road have been
built and in operation, due north from
Garden City. There is a real romance
story of how this new north and
south road is being actually built.
Two men of Garden City, B. NJ. Nc
Cue and E. A. Tennis, are the men
40 miles from Garden City to Scott
City, the Garden City, Gulf & North
ern. Then they sold it to the Santa
Fe. 1t is said they cleaned up half
million in the deal.
They put that money in building the
next stretch of the road, still further
north. They completed the second
stretch from Scott City to Winona, on
the Union Pacific, a SO mile stretch
1t is now being operated as the Scott
City e. Northern road and these two
Garden City men practically own It.
1t is rumored that the Union Pacific
Pacific engines are being run over it.
Then on to Nebraska.
The next stretch to be built will be
from Winona to Goodland. on the
Rock Island, 35 miles. And there IS
ground to believe that the Rock Island
will buy that stretch. Next will come
the fourth section of the road from
Goodland, through St. Francis to eth
er Haigler or Benkelman, Neb, on the
BurIington's main line to Denver And
that section will be bought. it is ru-
mored, by the Burlington.
In fact, as the report has it. and
things happening seem to bear 1t out,
the new north and south road, which
forms a connecting link between the
Santa Fe. Union Pacific, Rock Island
and Burlington transcontinental lines,
across west Kansas, will really be
owned Jointly by those four railway
systems
Possibly when the line is completed
and all the details worked out, it will
be formed into one distinct system,
possibly under the name of the Garden
City & Northern. It will be the first
