probably will be for at least thirty days,
as the. wsulti.of , .tha demolition oof the
gas plant by a runaway switch engine in
the Rock Island yards her. A Dig loco
motive ii the -uppttv yard ..-suddenly
started down the track, gaining, head
way with wonderful rapidity. It dashed
onto a loading track and struck two
box cars, whloh were carried to tho end
of the traok, here the bumper was crushed
iiko an eggsnen ana we cars carnea-neN,
across ine street ana into tne gas piant.
The two outer walls of tha plant and an
Inner wall wars demolished and the
plant's machinery wrecked. The two
oars were badly Injured, but ths engine
escaped with HtUe damage, as lb did not
leave the tracks One ot the Box cars
was pushed nearly through the plant
and tumbled all about It was debris of
the walls and tho wreaked machinery.
The gas plant has been In litigation for
some time and la In the hands of a re
ceiver. It was purchased last fall by

sented. The gas pUnt was located on
land belonging to th Rock Island road

vacate the railroad company's property.
The gas company has acquired a site
cast ot the old Pock Island depot and
It la stated a new ptant will be' erected

It was thought several men working on
the upper floors ot the thill had been
trapped by the flames, but the officers
of the concern and ftreman were Inclined
to doubt that there had been loss of life
All the men had not been accounted tor a
short time after the big structure ool

search of th ruins when the heat sub
sides would confirm rumors many of th
employes had not escaped. The loss was
estimated at J W0. 000.
The mill had a capacity of 8,000 barrels
of flour a day and was Kansas' largest

Service in Regiment
Por Physical Training
Capfain F..O. Stritxlngev, .commandant
of the cadet regiment at the high school,
met. yesterday with the majors and com
pany captains and outlined .plans'for dis
cipline his year. A number of sugges
tions for changes among ths cadets were
laid before the officers. . , ,'
, Chief among thesa will be an attempt
to Instill into the minds of the cadets and
the public at large the Idea that the regi
ment is uot an organization for the pur
pose of preparing the high school lads
for warfare, but nothing roor nor less
than a course of physical training In
addition to the pleasure derived from the
drill.
The commandant said all too many peo
ple are ot the opinion that th. drill at
the school Is 'for the purpose of trans
forming ths lads Into bristling, pugnacious
warriors, whereas 'th tru effort is to
build up the bodies, and resultlngly the
minds, of the students.
Captain StHtztager urged the company
officer to encourage the men ta partake'
of exercise apart from drill and to form
a habit of going through a regular series
of calisthenics every day, A .strict system
of noting the personal cleanliness of tne
men In th regiment was advocated and
will constitute, a- part of the, plan of rais
ing the physical standard ot the cadet
corps.
Regular officers' meetings will be held
during th year for the study of In
fantry drill regulations and for furthering
plans for the betterment ot th battalions,
recommendations for second llentenancles,
sergeantcles and corporalcles were called
for Thursday, and promotions to Oil these
offices will be made in the near future
The Cadet Officers club will met di
rectly after th promotions ars put for
the election of officers. Cadet suits and
full uniform must b worn after Novem
ber first on all drill days.

The federal grand jury at St Louis has
indicted a number of land sharks on the
technical charge of using the' mails to
defraud.
Tho gravamen of the offense consisted
In selling worthless town lots In New
Jersey by the mall order process. It
would seem to be no easy matter to con
duct a mall order real estate business,
but the sharks In question had no diffi
culty In disposing of swamp lands at re
munerative prices. In the beginning they
bought 1,400 lota for 13.60 apiece. They
sold these' at prices ranging from $29
to ti3. The contract of sale guaranteed
that the lota would ba resold tor the
purchasers by a certain date at prices

Plenty, of purchasers were found and,
strange to say, they were persons who
might be presumed ordinarily to know
enough to steer clear of such transac
tions. Physicians and clergymen, ' it is
stated In a dispatch from St Louis, wore
the principal victims. It had been rep
resented that the lots were on the Penn
sylvania railroad, ten miles from New
Tork. When the purchasers began to In
vestigate they found the subdivision,
which- had been exploited under the Im
pressive naftie ot 1 "Bpottawood Manor,'
was thirty-five mile from New York
and wns. located in what was locally
known as Huckleberry swamp. Th5 lots
were under water for all, or nearly all.

The lots, of course, are practically
worthless and the purchasers are out- tho
money they paid for them. In this In
stance the losses are distributed among
a class of people better able to bear
them than la usually the caso when a
