Latest RumOr That Santa Fe
Controls Baltimore & Ohio.
Announcement of COast-tO-
Coast Service Soon.
KEOKUK OBJECTIVE POINT
OBJECTIVE POINT
Logical Place for Roads to
Cross Mississippi.
Other Items of General Interest
in Traffic World.

Rumors come to Topeka arisins
from the fact that the Santa Fe and
Baltimore & Ohio officials have been
at Keokuk, Ia, late in company with
industrial community promoters, say
the Santa Fe has secured control OF
the Baltimore & Ohio lines, and within
a few months the former will announce
the completion of coast to coast
service over their own lines.
The Santa F'e crosses Lee county IN
the nothern portion and the Baltimore
& Ohio ends in Cass county. ILL.,, with
Beardtown, ILL.,, as the terminal sta
ton. Beardtown is 20 miles from the
nearest point on the Santa Fe and the
Mississippi would have to be bridged
to reach it. The logical point for the
road to cross the river would be just
below Keokuk, it is said. Recent dc
velopments point to the establishing
of two industrial communities opposite
each other, just south of Keokuk.
The Armour, Swift and Deering peo-
pie of Chicago have plans for develop
ing the low lands across the river from
Keokuk and the Mississippi River
Power company took options on over
two square miles of land near the
mouth of the Des Moines river at
Keokuk. This will be attractive to
railroad lines.

A Journal reporter sailed forth one
afternoon and interviewed on this
topic several Topeka gentlemen, fam
Gus for their intellectual weight, their
wisdom and their wit.
Captain Waters, snatching a minute
from a persistent client, hurled an in
vective against DR.. Loveland in his
most energetic style.
Capt. Waters Quotes Scriptures.
The doctor is wrong" insisted
Captain Waters. pounding his desk.
IF he read his Bible he must no
tice that we are gradually returning
to the original apparel worn in the
Garden. History is repeating itself.
And, by the way, DR.. Harding is right
about the contour of DR.. Loveland' s
legs; they are so affected with curva-
e-outWard-that he has to have
his pants cut out with a circular saw.
If he loses his church, if he is turned
out of the ministry, if he has to leave
town, the fault is all his own. He
could have taken to the woods and
saved himself.
Il have never quarreled with wom-
an" quoth the gallant captain, 'as to
what she should wear; it seems to me
that wings would be the most fitting
raiment.'
Tom DOran's Words of Wisdom.
Tom Doran, in his pleasant office,
swung back in his swivel chair,
crossed his knee, lighted his cigar
and, in his most legal manner, gave
voice to the following words, each one
of which is full of weight and wis
dom:
In the controversy between DR..
Loveland and DR.. Harding, I am I'M
qualifiedly with DIR. Harding. First,
because DR.. Harding has worn skirts
and ought to know what she is talk
ing about, while DR.. Loveland, in so
far as I am advised, has had no ex-
perience with skirts since he was a
swaddling baby, and had to crawl in
them. He is entering a dangerous
field of controversy, one in which his
education has been sadly neglected.
For more than forty years his atten-
ton has been wholly occupied with
spiritual matters, and he has evident
" forgotten that the skirts he wore
were loose, baggy affairs, which
women, taught by the wisdom gained
from experience, have long since dis
carded. They have adopted the close
fitting garment because of its con-
venience and because it adorns them,
and displays the beauty of their form
to the best advantage. Tt makes them
attractive, and what are women for
if they are not to be attractive and
to command the admiration of mem"
Mr.. Doran laid his cigar down, fitted
his fingers together, and continued with
care.
of course. if their legs were as an
gular and unattractive as the under
pinning of men generally, to say moth

them with loose-fitting, coarse and i'm
penetrable raiment."

fashion," said the reporter, solemnly,

or daughter ought to receive your care
ful investigation.
Don't let your boy or girl turn sour
on a business education because of fail

disappointment. How many FL PasO
boys and girls have already dropped
their money IN a school of parties and

as expected, have offered to sell cheap or
even to give away their alife scholarship
in a leading business coIlege?"
You have never heard of any young
man or woman offering to sell his right
