TO GIVE TWO RECITALS
Francois CapouilIiez Will Be in To-
peka January and 4.

One of the most interesting singers
before the public today is Francois
CapouillieZ, basso-cantante. He will
give a series of two song recitals in
the high school auditorium the even
ings of January and 4. The rise of
this remarkable singer is little short
of phenomena and he is at present on
a trans-continentaI tour lasting until
the end of June which will take him
as far west as the Pacific coast and
his singing is creating a furore in
every city in which he has appeared.
Capouilliez is an American, born in
New York City. and received 4his- mu-
steal training entirely in this country.
He is a pupil of Nine. Won Feilitzsch
of the Metropolitan opera house who
is remembered as the teacher who
produced" the late Evan Williams.
His voice is reminiscent of Plancon
being practically the same testitura
and quality. For four years past he
was soloist al the Broadway Taber-
nacle, New York, DR.. Jefferson's fam
Gus church.
His voice is well known t'lruout the
country by reason of series of radio
concerts given shortly before the COM
mencement of this tour. He is con-
stantly receiving congratulations in
every city he visits from those who
have thus heard his voice. He has
rendered several recita1s in New York
City specializing largely in songs by
American rmposers.
For the forthcoming recitals his
programs have been selected with
great care and afford the utmost va
riety of color, style and compass, and
he is recognized as a master of inter-
probation and English diction. He will
be assisted at the piano by Edith
Gutenberg. The recitals will be given
under the auspices of Topeka Or
phanS' Home.

Storey's reply to the charge of the
strikers organization is that the COM
pany's shops are turning out more
work than before the strike started.
that equipment is in better shape than
before the strike, and that the COM
pany is -oing a reco- d business
Storey has said that the expenditure
for improvements. betterments, new
second track and equipment for 1928
would be about what il was in 1892
around $43OOO.OOO. He says that
the amour ought to be 100000
but under present conditions the
amount will have to be kept down
pretty well.
Four short lines were started this
year, and .hree of them are in oper-
alton: Satanic to Manter. in Kansas; I;
Owen to A'awhuska, in Oklahoma;
E.inor to El Dorado, in Kansas The
first three are in operation and the
last named is under construction
The details of the expenditure of

number of unemployed persons in
Kansas during last week as registered

U. P. MAKES SAFETY RECORD
Heads Twenty-Seven Other Roads in
Safety Drive.

The Union Pacific railroad excelIed
twenty-six other representative roads
in the United States. in its safety rec
ord for the first three months of 1922.
according to statistics which have
been compiled by the interstate COM
merce commission The compilation
was made on a basis of one million
man-hours, secured by multiplying
the number of employees by the num-
Der of hours worked.
The Union Pacific had the lowest
rate, per million man hours, of en-
ployes on duty, of any of the twenty
seven roads studied. The number of
men killed was .22 per million man
hours, with 1O.11 men injured for
every million man hours
In the list of twenty-seven roads,
the Santa Fe ranked eighteenth, the
Rock Island twenty-second. and the
Missouri Pacific twenty-fifth. They
were the only other roads operating
in Kansas for which the figures were
given.
On the Union Pacific, the Kansas
division which formerly occupied third
place from the top of the list on free
dom from casualties, slipped back to
fourth place in October. according to
system figures. For the period of
January 1 to October 81, however,
the Kansas division retained third
place.
