of the travelling public, has resulted in large
increase in through passenger business, which

ing and adjustable chairs, and dressing rooms
with every desirable toilet convenience, with
out any extra charge. Ten more Of these SUI
perb coaches, to supplant ordinary cars, are in
process of construction, each of which will
be finer than the preceding ones. Great at
tention Is given to safety, the coaches being
supplied with Blackstone's platforms and coup
lers. to prevent telescoping and oscillation.
Watchmen patrol the line day and night. be-
fore and after the passage Of each train, to sec
that everything is in good order. This system
OF watchmen gives this road extraordinary ex-
cmpton from accidents, and especially that the
impaired iron has been replaced this season by
the best quality of new steel and iron rails,
laid on broad, new ties. This road continues
to run six fast express trains, two more than
any other road between the Missouri and Mis-
sis.ipp rivers. Any ticket agent selling
through tickets to the east. north or south,
sells tickets over this excellent road. For map,
