Changes in Operating Divisions. St. Louis. Mo.

The northern Kansas and Oma ha divisions wil! not be consolidat ed, the identity of both divisions be ing retained and maintained. Super intendent R. H. Dwyer of the north ern Kansas division will remain at .Atchison, and in addition to his former duties he will in future have direct, and personal supervision over Missouri Pacific line terminals at Atchison. These formerly were un der tho supervision ef officials of the Omaha division with headquarters at Falls City. Somewhat similar arrangements I are being worked out affecting the je.plin and White River divisions. The Joplin. with three branch lines, ! extends westward from Butler, Rich j Hill and Nevada into Kansas. The White River division extends from Carthage. Mo., to Newport, Ark., with a line from Crane to Spring field, Mo. Headquarters of the White River division are at Aurora. While certain record and other clerical wcrk will hereafter be per formed for the White River division ; by forces at Nevada, the identity of the White River division, as in the c?;se of the northern Kansas division, will be maintained and Superintend ent J. W. Daniels of the White River division will continue to maintain his headquarters at Aurora. The changes will not effect the home terminals of train and engine service men, nor the operating dis tricts as previously organized, on any of the divisions. These changes have been worked out after a most care ful rtudv in ta? interest of both efficiency and economy.

What is con isidered as without doubt one of the world's greatest catastrophes occur red May 23 last in the remote prov ince of Kansu, China, when towns and cities were leveled by a great earthquake, with the casualties plac ed as high as 100,000. The Westminster Gazette's Shang hai correspondent sends the first de tailed news of the earthquake, which came in the form of a letter from Monsignor Buddeiibrock, vicar apost oline of the Steyl mission at Lan cliow, Kansu. No report of the catas trophe previously had reached Shanghai owing to the total destruc tion of telegraphic and postal serv ices. Monsignor Euddenbrock describes how the cities of Cisiang, Liang chow and Kulang were wiped out in the twinkle of an eye. At Liang chow alone, he says, at least 10.000 were killed. The city of Tumentse was completely wrecicea anu oaneu hen. rttli f mnvinir mountain. I Monsignor Buudenbrcck tells sir-ring s-torv ot now me quaKo at Sisiang occurred during tiie celebra tion of mess. Immediately after the consecration, terrible subteranean Tumblings were heard. Dozens of worshippers, including the mother runcrior, were buried when the church suddenly collapsed. Priests worked frantically to rescue the liv ing and administer the sacrament to the dying. In the town arose one long wail of fright and grief as the magnitude icl the cisaster v?s realized. j Not one huilaing was left intact i and there was not one -house which did not contain dead ard dying.

In its effort to become an import ant airport, Bellevue, oldest settle ment in the state, has been awakened j to a new fervor of enthusiasm and i ambition that recalls the time when it was fighting Omaha for the state capital and for the Union Pacific bridge. The project that the village is now engaged in is a gigantic one and. ac cording to Allen Frazeur, member of the board of governors or the Belle , vue Men's club, which is the motiv ating influence in the airfield pro jects, will require the vacating of seven streets and alleys in the com munity and the conversion of 360 platted lots in the proposed airfield. Offer Lots for Project. Beside this, over 50 homes will : have to be moved to new locations i if the project is a success, and the linterurban street car-line tracks will ! have to be changed at an estimated I cost of $75,000. I Public-spirited citizens of the com munity who own surplus lots have ; proposed to donate them to persons whose homes will have to be moved i f rem the airfield to new sites, and Ithus obviate a large element of ex interest of civic accom- aPe - - ,' in the . i'''-1""""- Some also nroncse to donate lots to a communiy fund so thr.t the lots can le sold and the income derived from this source be used to pay for the moving of the homes.
