There was a big rush to the Pierson last evening for Christmas dinner so that not a few people had to wait for their turn to get into the dining room; and they did not have to "walk a mile" either, as the Morning Telegraph fear ed. The Pierson set a beautiful table as might have been noticed from the bill of fare printed, and every guest went away well pleased. Bunches of cala lilies adorned eacri table, greens of various kinds decorated the room in profusion, and at each seat was a pretty boutoniere. Music was provided through the dinner.

The big buster, 814, made the trip the other night with "ease and grace," and last night's Limited went out with b05, which has but a 40-foot 8 inch wheel. There has been no trouble with the b;g Schenectady engines since the equal. zing bars were changed so as to throw more weight onto the trucks, and the truck brakes were taken oil. So there does not teem to be any reason why engines 813, 814 and Hlo should not now be set apart for the service for which they were origi nally intended, viz., to haul the Sunset Limited trains. These engines have time and again, since the change, been pulling through freights at express train speed without any trouble. GRANITE WARE : 0.0. Tanner A.
