there have been no sessions of the

tpurned the last lap and that the fin-

behind the counter and dispense hot
drinks during the winter but for a
few tlie slack trad« means loss of
work : nd adjustment to new envir-
onments.
"1 don1 care how soon it's over,"
said one of the best soda jerkers in
the city this morning. "T'his has
been a hard summer on the boys lie-
hind the counter and when the trade
slacks up rm goina: to take a long

And how few are the persons
among the thousands who wear the
gilt edgeed thirsts and patronize the
soda joints who know anything of
the duties and vicissitudes incumbent
upon the daily routine life of the kid
behind the sodi counter.
The rate at which some of the
best soda jerkers in town get away
with their trade Is marvelous. Their
movement is like clock work and
their bodies more like machines than
moving agencies. A customer every
six seconds is ethe record that one
dispenser has held hour after hour
during the rush of summer.

fountain chocolate takes the lead. It

Company Sends a Poor
Excuse
Washington, Sept. 4.—The Inter-
state Commerce Commission has ask-
ed the Pullman company to explain
why wooden cars were used on the
New Haven Express, which was
wrecked near New Haven, killing 24
persons and injuring many passeng
ers, instead of steel coaches.
Investigators at New Haven for
the Interstate ^'ommerce commission
reported to commission tiiat despite
orders the wreckage had been clear-
ed and was being burned at the
roadside. The road set a gang of la
borers to burning the debris and
there were a dozen bonfires when
the investigators arrived.
General Superintendent Hungerford
of the Pullman company in Chicago
today stated that ills companx was
replacing the wooden coaches.
'We are equipping New Haven with
steel cars as rapidly as possible," he
said. ' When we took charg in Jan-
uary there was not a steel car. and
now about thirty are steel."

There is a story going the rounds

McCarney, who was the manager of
McCarty, Is desirous of becoming the
manager of Carl Morris of this city.
It is said that Montieth, manager of
Dundee, was in Tulsa last evening
and while there gave it out as his
opinion that Morris was the best
man in his class in the country Hi
said that sports on the Pacific (< ast
say that Morris is now doing what
lie ought to have done before—doing
a barnstorming stunt and taking on
all who desire to meet him. He gave
it as his opinion that Morris would
have no difficulty now in whipping
Flynn to a frazzle and that this be-
lief was generally shared by boxing
fans of the west.

BANKS IN THE
SMALL CITIES
Are Applying For Crop Loans
in This State and Bolen Says
They'll Get Coin
Oklahoma City, Sept. 4.—II. L. Bo-
len, named by the secretary of the
treasury as one of those in Oklaho-
ma to hfvVe charge of approving se-
curities for bai kr applying for depo
sits of the crop moving fund to l>e
furnished the state, says that he is
receiving applications from many of
the smaller bftnkl tliioimhout the
state for some of the money.'Mr. Bo
len says that so far as his Instrtic
tions are the smaller state banks are
as much entitled to this money as
those of the cities, and it will be
hig policy to let them have as much
as they want with proper securities.
The larger banks are not. applying
for the money as rapidly as at first
thought they might, which Is evi-
dence they are not needing.lt. In the
opinion of Mr. Bolen the money is
mostly needed In the country and
the country banks could more easily
loan the money where the most good
would be done.
