TRIBUTE TO WILMARTH
New York Publication Speaks Of To-
pelka's Famous Old Fire Chief.

An editorial in the national magazine
Of interest to fire departments. the Fire
mans Herald. published this week in New
York City. has the following to say Of
the life OF George o. Wilmarth, Topeka 8
veteran fire chief who died recently:
with his wish gratified-that he should
die in harness-George o. Wilmarth has
passed away. Few chiefs OF the past
eQualled his record nor Is it likely to be
equalled for many years to come.
1T was his fortune to become the head
Of fire department practically at the
same time that he entered the service. In
the forty-two years of his work as chief
he saw his city transformed and he also
saw the tools of his calling revolutionized
to degree that must have been unimag-
Unable when he became chief. He knew
what 1t was to pull hand hose reel and
he also knew what 1t was to respond to
alarms in his own chiefs car.
"Chief Wilmarth loved fire duty so we'll
that he would not leave it until death
called-and the call itself came in the
train Of fire duty. So we'll did he guard
Topeka that although administrations
came and went, Chief Wilmarth was
never disturbed in the tenure of his office.
'In the passing Of such q venerated fig
ure as that of George Wilmarth there
must be sorrow. Still one may say that
his end was a good one. Before it came
he had the proud distinction of serving
chief for longer period than any
other man of his time; his name was
honored throughout the service; he had
lived a long and active life, and he died
as he had lved-on duty"

cOMIN6 WITHIN 60 DAYS

Traffic men in Topeka railway circles
are hearing rumors Of a warning that
all the big railroads are face to race
with a freight car shortage. The I'M
pending crisis is magni1ed by the fact
that even were the railroads financially
able to purchase equipment at this time
the car makers would be unable 70
begin deliveries for two months at
least
II the revival Of business continues at
the pace set since the year, Topeka
railroad officials figured today. trans
portation of freight may be demo. al
lied within 60 days. At this time many
of the leading carriers are listing :neir
requirements. but. with few exceptions,
are not placing orders for new squ1p-
ment because of the financial condi-
tions which exist among virtually all
Of the carriers Of the country.
In view OF the conditions which nave
existed for the last year 1T Is reported
that the car makers have not supplied
themselves with any surpluses OF MA
terial. and consequently. before the
makers could begin the manufacture OF
cars they would have to place their own
orders with the speciality makers before
the work Of assembling could begin.
The delay accounts for the two
months which would elapse before the
railroads would begin to secure their
equipment If ordered at this time. A
longer delay would doubtless be en-
countered If the steel mills continue to
receive orders at the present booking
rate.

new CANCER METHOD
DR.. A. G. Bell Suggested Use Of
Radium Ten Years Aga.

Washington, Feb 25-A letter writ
ten over a decade ago by DR.. Alexan-
der Graham Bell. the inventor. and
recently discovered, is causing his
many friends here to wonder whether
he was not the first man to suggest
the imbeding of radium in bodily
tissue as a curative agent for deep
seated cancers. The letter dated July
81, 1903, and addressed to DR.. z. T.
Sewers of Washington, was made pub
lie by the National Geographic society
today.
Speaking Of the satisfactory results
radium was found to have on external
cancers and at the same time Of the
unsatisfactory effect it had on deep
seated cancers, DIR. Bell in his letter
said:
1T has occurred to me that one rea-
son for the unsatisfactory nature of
these latter experiments arises from
the fact that rays have been applied
externally, thus having to pass
through healthy tissues of various
depths in order to reach the cancerous
matter. The Crookes tube, from
is of course too bulky to be admitted
into the middle of the mass of cancer,
but there is no reason why a tiny frag-
ment of radium sealed up in a fine
glass tube should not be inserted into
the very heart of the cancer, thus act
Would it not be worth while making
experiments along this line?"
DIR. Sewers replied that he regard
ed the suggestion as very valuable and
added: IF such experiments should
be made. I have no doubt they would
prove successful in many cases where
We now have failures"
The lette,s were recently called to
DR.. Bells attention, but he declined so
say tina: he made the first suggestion,

NEW SERVICE ON SANTA /
TransconttnentAl Freight Servtc
Opened Over Coleman Cutoff.

Opened Over Coleman Cutoff.
Of1cials Of the Santa Fe announced
in Topeka today that through trans
continental freight service will be in
augurated over the Lubbock-Texico
cutoff by way Of Coleman. Tex, be-
tween Galveston and the Pacific
coast, beginning March 1. The new
service will be almost "a hours shorter
than the present running schedule of
Santa Fe freights between Galveston
and the Pacific coast. and the route
will be the shortest haul between the
Texas gulf coast and Pacific coast
points.
The cutoff, which was completed
about two months ago. will enable the
Santa Fe to compete directly with the
Southern Pacific, which has up to this
time had the advantage in the Gulf
Pacific trade. It Is stated that the
Santa Fe is planning to inaugurate
through passenger service from the
Texas coast to California points over
the cutoff within 15 days.
