: I sometime think that Ufa's good shares
Are scattered with a partial hand,
That son Is of merit Ret the cases.
While wantons more exalted stand,
Bat hear np bravely, do not fear.
For life will surely be made clear,
By and by.
I think how riches come to those
: Who lire as though this life were all;
, While needy souls with countless woes,
Are forced to drink life's bitter gall.
Bat bear np hearts be of good cheer,
For life will snrely all be clear.
By and by.
' 1 often think the lonely mind,
Oft suffers more than e'er is shown.
- Ceuld we but see, I know we'd find
Deep traces of a strife unknown,
But never mind, the end is near.
And life will snrely all be clear.
By and by.
I sometimes think that life is void,
Not wonh the living, till the end;
For oft ambition is destroyed,
. Bat then I think of where we tend,
, And feel again I've duty here,
And think thai it will all be clear,
By and by.
Perhaps these thoughts should not intrude,
, Bat still they rise up often, when
I roam among the multitude
Of life's exhanstless horde of men,
But as I roam, I feel each year
. . . Will bring us to a world more dear,
By nd by.
The Telephone.
--- Wednesday noon, Messrs. Qower andi
' "Watson experimented an hour with Bell's
telephone, between the offices of the Cbe-
' neys in Booth Manchester and Morgan St,
.. Hartford. Its work was in general quite
satisfactory, though it labored under the
" embarrassment of communicating through
1 a wire strung upon poles on which the
' Western Union were operating with other
, wires. A 'quadruplex" was working part
fc of the time between Hartford and Provl
. dence and though there was no possible
connection with the telephone wire.tho lat-
ter received so much electricity by induc
- Uon that the clicking of the Morse machine
was distinctly heard, and Mr. Hubbe'.l, lo
cal superintendent of the Western Union,
easily read the message passing. Conversa
tion, singing and the music of a cornet
were distinctly heard through the tele
phone. Certain tones of the voice and
notes of the musical scale are more distinct
' ry heard than others. This is probably
due to the fact that each box and ' disc of
vibrating metal has its own rate of vibra
' Hon and its own key.- In this matter of
distinctness there will doubtless be improve
: ment, but eyen now there is no difficulty
If the wire be strung away from wires
worked by electricity.
The wonder grows daily. No man is yet
able to tell why and how the instrument
, works. Remember that there is no batte
ry. The machines cannot cost the maker
three dollars apiece, and they improve by
use. If one does not wish'to use the voice
he can communicate by clicks, as with the
Morse instrument, and, as it promises now,
the Western Union may dispense with bat
teries that cost it a hundred thousand a
year to repair and run. The whole system
of telgrapby is on the verge of a great rev
olution. Hartford Uourant.
InTre. Sherman Escapes.
Mrs. Lydia Sherman of Derby, who fig
ured in one of the most celebrated crimi
nal causes in this state, escaped from the
state prison Tuesday night about 10 o'clock.
The matron, Mrs. Waterhouse, on her visit
of inspection about that hour, left the door
- of the female apartment unlocked, and
" while she was examining the upper tier of
cells, Mrs. Sherman, whose cell was left
unbolted, stepped out Once outside the
female apartment access was easy to the
yard thence to the road. Her cell had been
left unlocked of late because of her preca
" rlous health which might necessitate the
calling of assistance at any time. Her ab
sence was discovered in an hour, but ' she
mmM . V. f J . 1 i
wuiu uu utj iuuuu, bqu at last accounts
was at large. It Is not probable however
' that she will long elude arrest. Mrs. Sher
man has been in prison something over
four years. She was sentenced for life.
The account of her crime is too fresh to
mmmIm cl. : J l .
persons according to her own confession.
These were her three husbands, four of
her own children, and one child of her
third husband. The murder of Mr. Sher
man of Derby led to her arf est. While in
prison she has been docile, and much of
the time apparently in very poor health.
She is not in the least insane as some have
supposed.
The matron, Mrs. Waterhouse, is con
demned by the warden for her carelessness,
' and will probably bo discharged.
Later. Mrs. Sherman was captured in
Froyidence last Tuesday, and returned to
. her old quarters in the prison Wednesday.
P. T. Babktoc's Reward foe Charley
Ross. Christian K. Ross, the father of
' Charley, has been In consultation with Mr.
' Barnum, and they haye agreed to issue the
following :
"I will pay $ 10,000 In cash for the deliv
ery to me, alive, of the kipnapped child
Charley Ross, or for information that will
lead to his recovery. I most solemnly and
sacredly pledge my word of honor and rep
utation as an upright business man, not to
attempt for myself to discover the identity
of the persons negotiating with me in this
'.. matter, nor to convey to any other person
any hints or glews by which any accusi
tions, or even suspicions, shall be directed
against them. The parents of the child
shall unite with me in this pledge, and
agree, if their darling child is, by this
means restored to them, to abandon all at
tempts to punish any person concerned fin
his abduction or concealment. They agree
sever to appear against such parties, and
with myself will use every endeavor to
shield them from exposure. For the last
three years these parents have suffered
more than death, and now that Mosier and
Douglass, the real abductors, are dead, it is
hoped that the persons who have the child
in custody will be willing to accept this re
ward and immunity. The reward shall be
paid in current money as soon as the child
Is identified by its parents. As an addition-
. tl security to the persons bringing him, a
reasonable time shall elapse between his de
livery and the public announcement of the
fact, that the parties delivering him shall
. have every opportunity to avoid discovery.

Texas. A young man who went from
Auburn, N. Y., to Texas, telegraphed home
not long ago, "Fatted calf for one."
Kent. Correspondence, from Kent too
late for this week. Wednesday afternoons
are almost always too late for commnnioa
tions of length,
Milk Oars. J. A Cochrane of West
Cornwall advertises in another column an
iron elad milk can said to bo far superior
to any other can made. Bead what he
says about it.
Maurice and Aunt Jane. Maurice Ver
nier's reply to Aunt Jane's "pome ' of last
week, is received too late this week, but
it will 'warm up" good for next.
Painting Up. Painter Judd has begun
the work of painting all the whistling posts
and switches on the Housatonic road from
Bridgeport to Pittsfield, and seems to be
doing his work well.
Washinee Factory Leased. Washinee
Woolen Factory in Salisbury has been j
leased to a New lork firm who will take
possession July 1st, and will begin at once
the manufacture of cloths.
New Hay Press. Mr. Myron Decker's
new hay and straw press, which has been
in process of erection in Ashley Falls for
some weeks past, Is now finished. It is
said to be one of the best presses in the
country.
Found Drowned. The body of Frank
Palmer, who left bis father's house in Falls
Village Thursday, April 2Gtn, was found
last Sunday in what Is known as Bobbins'
Cove near the Housatonic river and about a
mile north of the station in that village.
Agricultural Report. Our thanks are
due to the Hon. T. S. Gold of Cornwall,
for a copy of his reports, (which is the
tenth annual; as secretary of the Connecti
cut Board of Agriculture, for 1876-7,bring-ing
the report through 'January, 1877.
Burnt By Kerosene. A girl named
Crawthorne, at Lee, Mass., thirteen years
old, noured kerosene from a can upon the
fire to make it burn better. The can ex
ploded, fatally injuring her, and severely
burning three other children.
Repairing A Bridge. The bridge across
the Housatonic river near the Hiram Bar
tholomew place west of Ashley Falls, is
being thoroughly repaired. CrosBigg the
bridge has been suspended for some days
past. This bridge has long been in an un
safe condition, and its repair has been now
long delayed.'
Haymakers The Musical Union of New
Milford will again render "The Haymakers"
at the Town hall in that place Friday Eve
ning July Ctb, omitting some of the less in
teresting parts and substituting new fea
tures, which, it is thought will add materi
ally to the entertainment. Tne Union
gave the Haymakers in Barrington last
winter, as will be remembered, and de
lighted their audience.
Corrected. One of our typos last week
made our correspondent ("Click") say in
his communication from Falls Village, that
Merchant Hall's new branch store in Ames
ville was to be presided over by Mr. George
U. Brown, when the manuscript said that
Mr. John H. Belden, formerly with George
II. Brown, was the man. The "devil"
stands corrected.
Fire Bugs. Several ineffectual efforts
were made 'o fire I. N. Bartram's hotel in
Sharon on Sunday night last. The build
ing was ignited in several places, but in
each instance the flames weie discovered
before they got beyond control and extin
guished. It is almost positively known to
be the work of incendiaries, and it is said
the parties guilty are almost as certainly
known.
Out Off His Thumb. Mr. Robert Fow
ler of Ashley Falls, while splitting kindling
wood last Saturday morning, the helye of
the axe caught in his clothes and misdirec
ted the blow sending the instrument across
the thumb, into and through the meta
carpal bone, entirely severing it and leav
ing the thumb hanging by a shred of skin.
Dr. Scoville readjusted the dismembered
digit, and sewed and bandaged it so that it
js thought it will be saved, although every
cord and bone were entirely severed.
Ran Into a Handcar The Milk train on
the Housatonic road last Monday afternoon
struck a band car in the cnt near the Rail
road Repair Shops at Falls Village, and
knocked It into kindling wood quickerna
wink. The car was occupied by several
painters, who had it for their accommoda
tion in doing painting along the road, who
were going with it toward the station, but
by some pretty sprightly jumps they suc
ceeded in escaping before the engine
struck tbem, and all were uninjured. The
front ot the locomotive was bruised up
some what.
I Notice. The undersigned desire to ren
der to their neighbors and friends, their
most sincere thanks for the timely and ef
ficient services rendered to them in their
time of extreme peril on the morning of
June 4th, when their home was three times
fired by the hand of an incendiary.

Conn Western Railroad. We have
heard the name of L. B. Stillson, for many
years conductor on the Housatonic road,
made mention of as under consideration,
with perhaps others, for superintendent of
the Conn. Western railroad. Mr. Stillson
is thoroughly conversant with railroad busi
ness in all its departments, is one of the
most popular passenger conductors InNorth
America, and he would make a thoroughly
practical, a popular and valuable superin
tendent for the Conn. WeBtern railroad
We hope the powers that be will continue
to think about Mr. Stillson.
Turkey vs. Peacock. Mr. Editor:
We visited the farmyard of our much
esteemed friend Walter Bnggs, of
Sheffield, not long since, and saw there
fine lot of peacocks, seven in number,
which we understood would be sold if any
were desired. We also took notice of two
valuable turkeys, one of which is said to
weigh 40 lbs, We looked longingly at that
big turkey, and thought of next
Thanksgiving, and but our thoughts
were diverted, as we were informed that
said turkey was guarded well by night and
day. and any persous eoming there for
fowl purposes, would be waited upon
promptly by "our dog." X.
An Elegant Monument. The Hon. Ex-
Governor A. H. Holley of Lafceville had
erected in the cemetery in Salisbury last
week, one of the most costly and elegant
family monuments in Western
Connecticut. It is wrought of Portland
Free-Btone, is about seventeen feet high
and weighs about sixteen tone. The work
was done in Hartford, and the shaft is ev
ery way worthy of the distinguished name
it bears. The new cemetery in Salisbury,
although it is only three or four years that
lots in it have been on sale, contains so
soon quite a large number of very costly
monuments and other specimens of rare
skill and excellence of workmanship.
Massachusetts Railroads. There has
been some talk of building a railroad from
Boston to Poughkeepsie, running through
Great Barrington, and the project is still
under consideration. A Massachusetts rail
road that cost nearly three millions of do
lars to construct, was sold a few days since
to a single individual for $125,000;
only about four ' cents on the
dollar of its original cost. Must be they
build railroads up in Massachusetts just for
the fun of it. To invest a dollar in a rail.
road that in a short time will sell for four
cents, may be fun for the people of the old
Bay State, but their Nutmeg neighbors are
too stupid to see where the laugh comes in
Tobey Hill Ore. The first train of
brown hematite ore ever shipped from the
Tobey Hill ore mine, owned by George W.
Peet, Esq., of this village, and located
about one and one-fourth miles from the
Conn. Western R. R. track, and near Ca
naan Valley, passed through this place las1
Thursday on its way to Landon & Co's fur
nace in Chapinville. The quality of this
ore is nearly the same as that of Salisbury
ores, the quantity of pure iron being larger
than in the ore from these mines. The
construction of a'furnace near Tobey Hill
is contemplated. ' The mine is so arranged
that fifteen laborers can be advantageously
employed and can raise about a hundred
tons of ore a day, should it be necessary to
do so. Something like three thousand tons
are now dug and ready for transportation.
Martha's Vineyard. The Hartford
Providence & Fishkill railroad has begun
the sale of excursion tickets to Martha's
Vineyard. . The price of a ticket good
from Hartford to the Vineyard (Oak
Bluffs) and return any time on or before
Oct. 1st is $7.00. . Oak Bluffs at Martha's
Vineyard is certainly one of the pleasant
est and every way desirable watering plac
es in the country. Passengers from this
way can go to Hartford on theN afternoon
train, and stay in Hartford over night, go
on the 6,80 morning train from that city,
and arrive at the Vineyard at 3 o'clock the
same afternoon; or can go on the forenoon
train on the Conn. Western road, and slay
ing in Providence over night, take a train
from that city at about 1 1 o'clock in the
forenoon, reaching the Viueyard about S
o'clock in the afternoon. If the people of
this region, or any of them contemplate go
ing to a watering place this summer, we
strongly recommend Martha's Vineyard.
Lakeville. Hubert V illiams, Esq., has
been appointed Commissioner of Deeds for
the State of New York It is rumored
that there will be a strawberry festival
held in our village some time next week
for the benefit of the free reading room....
A horse belonging to Ex-Govrnor Holley
broke loose from a hitching post the other
day and succeeded in demolishing a wagon
to which it was attached The Nutmeg
Rifle Club of this village held their regular
monthly shoot last Saturday; the two
highest scores being made by Mr. M. Tur
ner and Dr. Palmer, who tied on forty-
three points out of a possible fifty. The
shooting was done offhand, no rests being
allowed There is some talk of build
ing a lock-up here for the accommodation
of those persons who are freqnently seen
in our streets in a state of beligerent in
toxication, with their bat in one hand and
a stone in the other, asking - "to see the
man that can stand before tbem" A night's
lodging jn a lock-up and an interview
with Judge Tupper in the morning would
have a tendency to put a stop to such dis
graceful soenes as are frequently enacted
in our village. Optic.
Sheffield. The ladies of the Congrega
tional society will bold a strawberry
festival on Friday evening of this week in
the Town Hall. Everybody is invited to
come and bring bis wife or lady love and
enjoy the feast of good things which our
ladies know so well how to provide. But
don't forget to bring your purse well filled,
and we warrant yon "good bargains for
cash." The drouth bas seriously affected
all vegetation this way, gardens are almost
ruined and wells in the village are fast
drying np The Aid Society of the M. E.
Church meets this week at the bouse of
Rodney Sage. We understand the ladies
of this society expect to hold a festival
next week, but no announcement of the
day has as yet been made The rush for

Falls Village. The mystery surround

last cleared away. Peter Drumm. while
looking for a bathing place on Sunday last,
oame upon the body of a man in the cove
that sets back from thf; river about a half
mile above the repair shops. He immedi
ateiy gave notice to the authorities who
took steps to remove and bury the body
which was terribly decomposed. The
dress and appearance left no doubt as to
its identity. There are many theories set
iortn as to how be came there, but the
most popular one is that the unfortunate
man endeavoied to cross the cove, and sink
ing into the mud, was drowned before he
could extricate himself. The fact that he
bad on no pants when found gives more
foundation for this belief. Click.

Salisbury. Editob of News : Your
correspondent, "Dixie," in the last issue o(
the News, after narrating an occurrence
which took place near his residence, takes
occasion to animadvert severely upon the
selectmen of this town and at the same
time to indulge in a long tirade against the
evils of intemperance. That intemperance
and unlicensed dram shops aie an evil, no
one will deny; but the law has wisely made
provision for the suppression of both, and
officers (Dixie being one of the number,)
are annually chosen to see that the provis
ons of the law are enforced. It would ap.
pear In better taste, if "Dixie" would exer
cise his authority as an officer and bring
these culprits, (who, as he slates, are daily
evading the law,) to justice, than by wri
ting opprobrious articles in the newspapers,
which can be productive of no good, and
which only result in mutual recriminations.
'Dixie's" peculiar forte as a correspondent
lies in invective, and a proneness to find
fault with his neighbor, but he usually fails
to state more than one side of the question.
A few years since, this town voted to grant
licenses, and the selectmen were instructed
to issue them to such as they saw fit. A
number were thus issued. A prosecuting
agent was appointed whose duty it is to
proscecute all complaints of infraction of
the law. Now let the valorous "Dixie''
convert his goose quill to better purpose
than in slinging calumnious ink promiscu
ously from behind the columns of a news
paper Let him come forth like a man and
an offleer, make complaints against these
transgressors ot the law, and his communi
ty will soon be delivered from the evils
which be mourns. Justice.

Falls Village Fair. Ed. Conn. Western
News: As the "Union Agricultural Socie
ty" propose to give another Cattle Show
and Fair, I would like to make a suggestion
through your paper.
As is well known, tbe show has not been
successful for some years, either in respect
to the number and quality of exhibits, or
pecuniarily. I wish to speak particularly
ui me exmoiuon or stocK. mere is no
lack of fine stock in our region, but as the
premiums offered are so small, there is no
inducement te draw it out. The society is
not able to pay larger premiums, but they
could do what the majority of exhibitors
would value far more than the pecuniary
reward, namely : give to the successful
competitors a paper certifying that such a
person received 1st, 2nd, or 3d premium
for such an animal giving description and
reasons for award. This, Bigned by the
judges, and countersigned by the president
and secretary, would be a trophy which ev
ery exhibitor would value, and which
would be of pecuniary importance at the
sale of the animal. It would be what the
the record is to the fast trotter. If this
were tried I think the effect would be to
draw out a larger and finer exhibition of
stcck, while the expense would be trifling,

we give a list of the mountain elevations of
Connecticut, as obtained by a survey made
two or three years ago by Messrs. Fyler
and Civil Engineer George M. Bradford of
Winsted.and the Hon. Bobbins Battell and
H. P. Lawrence, of Norfolk. It will be
seen that Salisbury, the northwest corner
township, his elevations much higher than
tbat of Mt. Ivy in Goshen, which used to
be called the highest land in Connecticut.
The elevations here given are the heights
above tide water.

Bald Peak, Salisbury 1,996
Buck mountain. Salisbury 2.150
Bear mountain, Salisbury 8,250
Mount Brace 2.300
"Tbe last three heights are estimated."
The report of the survey says : '
Lack of time prevented visiting Mount
Brace and Bear and Buck mountains.
The two latter were 150 to 200 feet higher
than the ground they stood on Bald Peak,
Salisbury, and unquestionably i'n the lim
its of this state, while there is some dis
pute as to whether the highest point of
Mount Brace, which is considera
bly above the other two, is in this state, or
just over the lit-e in New York. The mon
ument to mark the slate line is on this
mountain near the top, and it is exceeding
ly probable that the highest land in the
state is exactly in the corner where New
York and Massachusetts join Connecticut.
Only this seems now certain, that there is
land in this state that will vary little, if any
from 2,300 feet above the sea level.
The party were out four days taking
measurements. They pretty effectually
settled tbe point that the highest land in
Connecticut is in the exact northwest cor
ner of the state, and that the height is al
msst exactly 2,800 feet. Hartford Times.
Express Companies vs. the Mails,
At the time the matter of cheap transpor
tation of small packages of merchandise in
the mails was before Congress, tbe express
companies were almost tbe only opposition
the friends of the project had to contend
with. These companies fought "tooth
and nail," but it became a law notwith
standing, and the people were relieved
trom tne exorbitant enarges ot tuese mo
nopolies ; or at least were so fat relieved as
the transportation of small packages was
concerned. Now the Adauis Express Qo
The American and United Stttcs Express
companies have come out with a circular
and announced that
To facilitate the business of manufactur
ers of and dealers in certain articles, tnese
companies have adopted a greatly reduced
rate to take effect May 31, etc.
This new schedule of rates enumerate
cuts, seeds, books, bulbs, etc., etc., in fact
only and exactly those articles mentioned
in the new post office law as admissible to
the mails and the rates are tbe same, viz.
cent per ounce or fraction thereof, aud tbe
weight must not exceed four pounds.
Tnus it is, these companies, so kindly
disposed toward tne dear public, are anx
ious to"facilitaleJtheir bunsiess"etc.,and os
tensibly for that reason, reduce their prices
for their work . Such brotherly love !
Such self sacrificing devotion to the best
interests of tbe people as these companies
thus make manifest, will undoubtedly cause
their patrons to at once and forever forget
that they have been compelled to pay to
the uttermost . farthing (.he distressingly
high prices they have unfeelingly extorted
from them for many years past. Let the
government repeal the law permitting this
cheap small parcel transportation in the
mails, and these beautiful express compa
nies would conclude in less than one half
minute that it is not expedient to continue
longer to "facilitate the business of manu
facturers," in fact they wouldn't "facili
tate" worth a cent in any business but
their own, and would instantly return to
their old habits of thought ; that she public
is their victim, and mercv a word not fit
and suitable to occupy and waste room in
their dictionary. Their cent an ounce plan.
and especial lore for their patrons, would
go out of their offices like shot off a shoy
el.
To whom are the people indebted for this
privilege of sending small packages at pric
es they can aftord to pay ; to the express
companies or to our government who rec
ognized the needs of the people and legis
lated in their interest ?
The rates now offered by the express
companies are no lower than the same
packages can be sent in the mails, and as
there are In many places post offices
established where there are no express of
fices, the safest, surest, and altogether the
best plan is, we think, to continue doing as
we haye done, viz., to send all small pack
ages in the mails ; and then too, there is a
satisfaction in knowing that the money
paid for their transportation will go into
the treasury of our government, which
means into the money chests of "we, the
people," instead of enriching private cor-
portions that are already wealthy enough.

are to have a Chapel in this village, and
this is how it came about : Mrs. C. P.
Huntington of New York, daughter of the

agreed that when the village people would
erect a chapel tbat would cost from $2,500
to f 3.000, she would give $1,000, but her
generous contribution must clear the chap
el fiom debt. A Chapel committee bas
been appointed and a subscription paper
circulated and the necessary funds subscrib
ed, and the plan of the building decided
on, and it is said that tbe committee are all
ready to receive bids. Tbe plans and spec
incations can be seen at Pratt & Foster's
store. Mr. E. Sbepard, besides bis gener
ous subscription to the chapel fund, has of
fered a half acre of land opposite the resi
dence of O. L. Fitch, to place the chapel
on. It is a nice location, high and drv.and
it is said the committee are all in favor of
accepting the lot as the best location, al
though the villagers are somewhat divided
on their ideas of location, but no matter
where it is located we shall all be satisfied.

TUB DIFFERENCE.
Wtf have been frequently asked s "What
Is the difference between a railroad dining
car and a Pullman Hotel car?" That there
is a vast difference is well-known by those
who , have had occasion to use either; but
the untraveled public are not fully advised
as to the points of difference. Tbe olu-
f asbioned railroad eating bouse is, alas 1
loweU known, its peculiar, hastily-eater
Tnealsliave been partaken of by too many
thousands to be forgotten. The dining-car,
then, is tnls'well-known eating-house placed
on wheels, attached to the train at the
usual meal hours, and hauled along for
thirty, forty or sixty miles, until tbe mea
bad been served, when it is set off on i
side-track, and 16 by the next train hauled
back to its starting point, and so it runs a
iew mues lor each meal. To get meals inl
this car the passenger bas to work his way
turougn tne entire train while it is under
full motion, pass from car to car, running
me nsKs or railing between tbe platforms.
ano nnaiiy Hndlng the car at the rear of the
train. Then comes the meal, which must
be hurried through with to give chaocw for
other hungry passengers to take your place.
and you must force your way back to your
seat, and again run the risks of your plat
form passage while the train is at full soeed
In such cars you pay seventy five cents for
a meal, even if you take or need only a cup
ot eoltee and a cracker. B-.ar in mind, lu
no case do these dining cars accompany tbe
train from starting point to destination.
They are always "cut off " and taken on as
we have described. With the Pullman
Hotel car tbe case Is different in every re
spect. These cars are from sixty to sixty -six
feet long, have sixteen wheels under
each, are built strong, so as to insure
steady, quiet running, without the usual
unpleasant side motion . Eich Hotel car
contains, in the order named, the following
compartments :
1st. A cosey, neat and clean little kitch
en, fitted up with a range, an ice and meat
box, rowB of shelves covered with bright
silver and brighter glass ware, and all the
appliances needed for preparing a sumptuous-meal.
2d. A compact China and glass closet.
in which is kept the table ware and table
linen, eutlery, &c.
8d. A passage way cutting off the kitch
en and china closet from the rest of the
car, and forming an air chamber to prevent
the smell of tbe cooking victuals from
reaching tho raloon portion of the car.
4th. The grand saloon. This is fitted
up with twelve, fourteen or sixteen sec
tions, with space for tables between each
and in these the meals are served. You.
while on this car, own the space yon occu
py as much as you do your room at home,
and no one can hurry you at meals, nor
are yon forced to give it up to allow any
other person to occupy it. At night, as if
by magic, this saloon is changed into
boudoir, and here your couch is prepared,
and here you rest yourself isolated Bad as
separated from your fellow travelers as you
would be in your own bed chamber.
Ctb. An elegant drawing room, with
room for six or eight persons. This
found alone in these magnificent cars. In
it you and your family or party of friends
may be as secluded as you please, or you
can slide . open the end and have tbe com
pany of those in the grand saloon.
6th. Charmingly arranged lavatories are
partitioned off and arranged in two distinct
compartments for the separate use of la.
dies and gentlemen. These lavatories are
supplied with pure water, clean towels,
combs, brushes, and, in fact, everything
the most dainty may desire for the perfect
performance of an elaborate toilet.
no. inen ionow conductor s and por
ters' rooms, linen closets, etc., etc
It will thus be seen that this car Is, as its
name implies, a perfect modern hotel, with
all of its appliances and comforts complete
This car is taken on at the commencement
ot tne journey, ana is part of the train . to
its destination. In it you get your sleeping
compartments and your meal accommoda
tions, while neither encroach upon the
other. Envious dining-car employees, who
are paid to decry this form of Hotel car,
cannot, with anything like truth on their
side, give any valid or conclusive reasons
for preferring the dining to the Hotel car,
and they only chatter in favor of their din
ing car because they are paid to do bo
These Hotel cars have run from New York
to San Francisco and back with the Empe
ror Dom Pedro with Jarrett $ Palmer's
party, tbat traveled at almost lightning
speed with many a party of California
bonanza kiogsj and all join in pledging
their honor tbat the cars are incomparable,
1 we lines or ' these celebrated cars run
between new xork and Uhtcago, ana one
line only between Chicago and Omaha. It
may be needless to say that this last named
line runs over tbe steel track of tbe Chlca
go & Northwestern Railway. Thatj these
cars are attracting a large share of the Cali
fornia travel, both ways, might easily be
conjectured. Any road deserves to be
patronized tbat Is enterprising enough to
give the trayelipg public such facilities as
are freely tendered by the Chicago &
North -Western Railway on its California
line.
We have neglected to say that. In these
Hotel cars, the meals are a la carte you
pay for what you get, and nothing more;
and this al very reasonable rates. The
