CALHOUN IS OUT.
Local Man Becomes President of the
United Railways.

San Francisco, Aug. 81. W. LiIien-
thai, a San Francisco capitalist was
chosen successor to Patrick Calhoun as
president of the United Railroads of San
francisco at the annual meeting of the
stockholders of the company and a di-
rectorate, composed of California men
with single exception was named to
supplant the former directorate made up
of eastern capitalists. The United Rail-
ways of San Francisco is a subsidiary of
the United Railways Investment company
of New Jersey.
PRESIDENT Lilienthal announced he had
accepted the office because of an am
billion to improve relations between the
company and the public. Referring to last
Tuesdays bond election in which the city
voted funds to extend its Lines In COM
petition with the United Railways, he de-
clared that in the future the company
would keep out of politics and it would
be his aim to confine the activities of the
WAYS.

Now York stock Market.

Wall ST. New York, Aug. 29.-STOCkS-
Speculators who were disposed to continue
Operations on the long side were aided in
their effort by improvement in commits
sion house business. This demand was
especially noticeable in the broader mar
l<et for numerous specialties which are
not often dealt in.
While stocks showed a hesitating tone
at times there was no serious Interrupt
ton to progress upward during the morn
ing and traders who attempted to depress
the market found it too strong for them.
The rise was accelerated by orders from
traders who finally went into the market
after holding out for a time in hope or
a reaction. -.
short covering continued to play an i'm
portant part in the rise but there was
enough buying for the long account to
give more confidence in the speculative
position of the market.
Bonds were steady.
Opening transaction in the leading stocks
were on a large scale today but the mar
,xet lacked the strong tone which charac-
terized 1t yesterday. The most active
issue was Steel, transactions IN Wncn
amounted to about 10000 shares In the
first few minutes. The price advanced
a small fraction as DID the quotations Tor

! ergy, fortftude and industry have sur
mounted greater obstacles than that of
/ the present crop failure.
With two hundred million dollars
on deposit in the banks of Kansas,
her people will meet the present tenn
porary losses heroically and without
complaint-we can't always beat the
world in everything. Our people pre-
sent a high type of courage. They
have transformed what was once known
as the Great American Desert into a
fruitful garden of plenteous beauty.
The people of the state have accom-
plished so much in the building of an
agricultural empire. and I count it a
great privilege to represent a district
that has led in this high calling.
THE loss of one or two crops can
be but a temporary set back to state
whose taxable valuation is nearly
s6OO.O00,000. The farmers of Kansas
have harvested nearly 100000
bushels of wheat, and their oats is
the largest for many years. Her al
falfa crop is this year worth $62 per
ly growing wealth of Kansas is
shown in an increase of nearly $45,-
10000 over 1912.
Il repeat. there is nothing the mat
ter with Kansas"
A Kansas girl and her pet dog, with
the assistance of President Woodrow
Wilson, have broken down the strict
rule against dogs being permitted in
Yellowstone National Park. Miss Ethel
Provost of Parsons, Kan, will soon re-
ceive notice from the department of
the interior that her request to take
her dog Fanny into the park has been
granted.
The girl recently wrote to President
Wilson: My father is soon to take
the mana cement of hotel in Yellow
stone National park. We have been
Informed that no dogs are allowed in
the park confines. Mr.. President, you
don't know how sorry l am to hear
this. 1 am IS years old, and our dog
Fanny is the same age. We have
never been separated and 1 cannot
bear the thought of leaving her be-
hind. She is very old for dog and
would not be able to harm any of the
park animals"
President Wilson replied that he
would see what could be done.
Congressman Guy T. delivering of
Kansas will attend the tenth national
encampment of the United Spanish
War Veterans at Buffalo, N Y, Sep

by using forks and rakes so that The
fines fall to the bottom of the layer,
or the old material may be screened
with hand screen and the road then
reshaped. Usually 1t is possible to
rake stone from the sides toward the
center to restore the crown partially:
then new stone, preferably Of the same
kind as already in the road, should be
added. When new material Is applied.
however, as a separate and bomogene-
Gus course of uniform depth it need
not be of the kind already in the road
On old roads which have been worn
very thin it is good practice to add
first enough stone to rebuild the bot
tom course, for example. to a mini
mum of three inches In depth when
rolled and then to apply second
course as in construction. Grades and
lines are usually needed on repair
work, and where stone is to be spread
as a second course 1t will be advisable
to use spreading blocks of size equal
to the depth OF the loose stone.
Sometimes the scarifying may be re-
duced to shallow, hand picked grooves
parallel to the road and foot or more
apart, or else it may be entirely omit
