RETIRE ON PENSIONS
A List of 10 Employees Is Announced

Included in a list of eighteen en-
ployes of the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe railway whose retirement on

In order to try to get a more ac-
curate line on the wishes of the To-
peka baseball patrons and in order to
please the greatest number of them,
John Savage, owner of the local club,
announced today that he would put
the time of calling games played here
up to a vote of the fans who attend
tomorrow's game.
There has been quite a demand for
earlier games this season, and Savage
has stated that he would have the
games start at the time most conven-
lent to the public. However, the an
nouncement that games would begin
earlier brought a protest from those
who claim that they cannot get away
earlier in the afternoon than 3:I5 or
$3.50.
Early Advantages.
On the other hand, those favoring
8 o'clock games have continued to
clamor for them, and Savage says that
the only way he can settle the affair
is to put it up to vote of those who
attend and then satisfy the wishes of
the majority.
Among those who want earlier games
are a great many who work at night
and who claim that games called at
$3.50 are not over in time for them to
get home to supper and get to their
work at the required hour. Also, a
great many claim that late games
make late evening meals and conse-
quently cause more or less domestic
distur Dances.
Throughout the whole country there
has been a demand for earlier and
faster games this season, and a num-
Der of clubs in the bigger leagues are
now starting their games at o'clock.
Every Fan Can Vote
Every fan who attends tomorrow s
game between the Savages and Wolves
will be given a voting slip upon which
will be marked the figures 8. BIS and
800. Those who receive the slips will
vote for the hours most convenient to
them and will deposit their votes in
boxes that will be provided for the
purpose. After the game. the votes
will be counted and the time desired
by the greatest number will be the time
all games will begin upon the team
return home June 2.
The voting ballots will be given out
as the patrons enter the ball park, and
no one will be given a ballot after he
has passed through. This will be done
to prevent one person voting more
than once
All who are in favor of earlier
games are urged to go out tomorrow
and vote.

LET FANS DECIDE
Time for Calling Games Will
Be Put to a Vote.
Early Advocates Should All At
tend TOmorrOw's Game.

All fans who favor calling To-
peka's baseball games at 8 O'Clock
should make 1t a point to attend
tomOrrOw'S game. Unless they
do so, they will probably have to
continue the consumption of their
national pastime at announcement
hours.

the pipes and to save heat. A damp
or i'm every pipe and also In the smoke
flue will aid materially in controlling
and distributing heat. Chimney nues
should be 10 by 10 inches or larger.
Hot Water.
4 hOt-water system is only a slight
elaboration Of the principle. Enlarge
the base to inclOsc the fire, and re-
duce the size of the tube or pipe be-
tween the fire and the rooms to be
heated, and make that part Of the
circuit In the rooms large, TO give
enough radlating surface. The main
body, cast in sections for convenience
in handling, is often made quite ir-
regular, i'm order to expose more sur
face to the fire. Water Is conducted
through n large pipe, from which
smaller pipes connect with one end
Of the radiator in each room. The
other end Of the radiator in con
nected to large return pipe, which
enters the heater at the CRATE level.
This allows for n more rapid circula-
ton than if n single pipe were used
for each radiator.
Allowance must be made for the
expansion of the water. This is done
by placing an open tank in the attic,
or I'm Il Sccond-floOr room above the
top Of the highest radiator, and con
Meeting with the system at some con
venicnt point. The system may be
filled through this tank If there is no
pressure system at hand.
This Is called the open-tank hot
water system. If the tank were
capped tight, and little or no water
reached the tank, there would be n
quantity of air confined which would
be compressed because the water in
the heater, pipes and radiators cX-
pands when heated. This Is the
closed tank or semistcam system.
The advantage Is n higher tempcra-
ture of the water before the boiling
peraturc will allow of smaller pipes
and smaller radiators, and the prac-
tice Is to install smaller heater
also The cost of installation will
consequently be less.
Objections to this system are: The
need of safety devices. which may
fail, and harder firing, which requires
more fuel.
Vapor or Vacuum System.
The VapOr or vacuum system Is n
comparatively recent development. 1t
is the opposite in principle of the
closed tank hOt-watcr system as the
mir Is exhausted from the pipes and
radiators and water stands i'm the

Hot-Air Furnace.

mace Is produced which will heat two
or more rooms, one for each pipe.
Later improvements gave us the hot
water and steam systems; and these
now find some competition in the vapor
system.
A combination of hot air with either
hot water, steam or vapor known rs
a combination system, is now often
used.
The outside Of stove becomes hot
from the fire within which heats the
air in contact with it. This air in turn
becomes lighter, rises, and is replaced
by cold air from below and at the
sides. This displacement of warm air
by cold air continues, and produces
currents. The room can be made
comfortable with stove when ii is
not too cold outside. If very cold out
side, say ten degrees below, the cur
rent of air will become so cold while
passing down the cold walls that the
stove cannot heat the room COmforta-
bly,.
A sheet iron jacket, with neither
top nor bottom, set up from the floor,
will increase the rapidity of air cir
Culation, since only the air within
the jacket is heated. This air gets hot
ter and rises faster, thus making n
more rapid circulation and II more cf
fective heat.
A Furnace.
A stove with jacket, placed in the
cellar, becomes furnace. \ brick
wall may be- substituted for the steel
jacket. A return ilue through the
floor some distance from the furnace,
makes the system complete. Such Il
scheme is used for many churches
schools and assembly rooms, where the

stroy the vacuum and IL VIII become
a steam system pure and simple.
Choosing Fuel.
For hard coal deep frebOx gives
best results. Hard coal burns slowly
and requires less air than soft coal
or wood, and the deep fire serves as
check on the air. Soft coal and
wood burn best In a thin layer over Il
larger surface, and Of course will re-
quire more frequent firing. All-rOund
steam and hOt-water boilers are made
for hard coal. A sectional boiler may
br lengthr0ed by adding sections and
the size Of the lrebox be thereby in
creased.
In round hot-watcr boilers, two
styles are offered; one with fiat
top fircboX, and one with water arms.
The one with the fiat top is much
more easily cleaned than the one hay
ing water arms, and the heating coil
is much more easily installed. The
latter style Is intended to give more
heating surface in the tirebOX, but
this feature is more than offset by
the advantages mentioned.
In placing any of these heaters the
Clcan-Out doors should not be backed
up against chimney or partition.
Radiators.
The radiators are of cast or sheet
iron, made up i'm sections, which may
be placed together to give the re-
quIred amount of radiatlng surface.
The standard size Is 3S inches high,
three column, and contains , square
feet Of radiation per section. A four
column 3S-inch radiator contains y
square feet of radlating surface. They
sell for Is to 20 cents square foot.
Each radiator has valve at one end
to cut off the water. I'm this valve is
a pinhOIe, through which circulation
will continue and thus prevent frceZ-
ing when the radiation is cut off. At
the top of each radiator, at one end,
is an air valve, which must be opened
