HOME COMING FOR AGGIEs.
"A. U.-Manhattan Game VIII Be Pre-
ceded by Big Festivities.

Manhattan Kan, Sept. 16.-It has
been definitely decided by the athletic
board of the Kansas State Agricultural
college to make the Aggie-k. U. game
the first annual homecoming contest.
Details for the big event, which is ex-
pected to bring hundreds of the alumni
back to the college, are being worked
out by John r. Bender, the new coach'
and the athletic board.
A huge rally will be held Friday
night before the game at which pep
talks will be made by old TX" men and
others. There is some talk of staging
a sham battle on the campus the day
before the game, according to Coach
Bender.
Not only will the official college
* be given to men who played upon
the athletic teams before monograms
were awarded, but they will receive
honorary tickets in appreciation OF
past services which will be good for
free admission to all athletic contests.
These awards will be made at the big
Friday night mass meeting.
The Homecoming innovation, which
was suggested by Coach Bender, will
be widely advertised. The railroads
have agreed to put up special station
posters and 10000 stickers have been
ordered that will be sent out on sta
tionery and distributed through other
means.
"K' men and all former athletes
are especially urged to attend. Those
who are not able to do SO may receive
honorary tickets by writing to Coach
Bender and giving the details of their
athletic activities.

JITNEUR ROBBED HoITON Boz
st. Joseph Bus Driver Arrested and
Taken to Troy, Kan.

st. Joseph, Mo-, Sept 15.-Earrest
Davis, 10 years old, 1906 South Ninth
street, who was arrested at the union
depot by Patrolmen kellogg and
Duane, and George Burgess, II years
old, 2417 South Third street, who was
later arrested at Fourth and SyIvane
streets by Detectives Frans and
Townsend, Were turned over to au-
thorities from Troy, Kan. on a war
rant charging the boys with highway
robbery.
Saturday afternoon four young
men from Troy, Kan, and one from
Holton, Kan. came to st. Joseph on
an outing. That evening they missed
their train for Troy. and hired Davis
to drive them to their homes in an
automobile. Before they had left the
city Burgess Joined the party as
friend of Davis. The four who lived
in Troy were taken to their homes in
safety, and Davis and BURGESS then
started for Horton with their lone
passenger. About four miles out of
Troy the passenger was & ssaulted by
the jitney drivers, s1ugged by Davis,
and then robbed by Burgess, he says,
of about SIS or $50. He said he was
then thrown out of the car and left
at the side of the road by the two jit-
ney drivers.
The young man from Ho1ton came
to St Joseph in search of his two
assailants, and located Davis in a sa-
loon across the street from the union
depot.

RAILROADS
SPEND The coin
American Railways Lay Out
Billion Yearly for Safety.
Movement Has Accomplished
Much in Accident Prevention.

Statistics show that the railroads
of the United States spent almost a
: billion dollars last year to safeguard
travel. This large sum of money was
expended in the elimination of grade
crossings, experimental tests of steel
rails, installation of improved signal
land switching devices and the educa-
STIonal campaigns to impress upon
railroad men and the public that safe
ty first ranks first.
Topeka may be regarded as the city
where the seed of safety was first
planted. The Santa Fee railway was
among the first roads of the world to
take up the safety first idea 1t was
a dream of the late j. D. NJ. Hamilton,
claims attorney for the system, and 1t
has become reality. With headquar-
terS in Topeka, Isaiah Hale, safety
commissioner, who reports direct TO
Vice President w. z. Storey of Chi
cago, has developed a safety depart
ment that is used as a model among
railroads.
Invention of safety devices in all
branches of the Santa Fe service is
encouraged while the inspection Off
GERS whose work is most efficient in
the discovery of flaws and faults in
construction are rewarded a safety
exhibit ear keeps on the move all
over the system, while safety rallies
are held on every division, in which
stereopticon views and motion picture
plays are used as illustrative lessons.
The New York Central has a magazine
that is devoted to safety.
Taken generally throughout the
country, the safety first movement
has expanded in many directions and
a great deal has been accomplished in
the prevention of accidents. Cars with
open platforms are rapidly being re-
placed by cars with trap and vestibuIe
doors. There are very few cars with
platforms not so guarded now in the
use of transportation companies.
Pra ctically all street cars in the large
cities are equipped with a mechanical
arrangement which makes it impossi-
bic to get on or off cars while the lat
ter are in motion.
In the days of the horse cars in To-
peka it was a common practice to
jump on and off cars while in motion
and a great many accidents resulted.
The use of vestibule or trap doors have
made accidents of this character al
most. if not entirely, impossible. They
have been accepted by the public as a
safety measure for their own protec-
ton, Notwithstanding that the move
ment to and from cars is now made as
freely as under the old conditions.
