be OF triple plated silver. The upl.o
stery OF the seats is to be of rich bu.
plain reps, corresponding and harrpo.
niziDg with the wood finish Of the sides
and roof Of the cars. Between each
setof seats is space for a table that will
accommodate four persons comfort
ably, but as rule are not expected to
seat more than two persons. The glass
and chinaware for the tables are now
being made at Dresden, Germany, from
patterns selected from the Royal Dres-
den exhibit that was ct the Centennial
Exposition and SO greatly admired.
Each piece of sllver-ware, glassware
and china-ware will have the mono.
gram of the Chicago & North Western
road marked thereon. The kitchens
Of the cars will be SO arranged that no
fumes from the cooking viands can
reach the occupants of the berths. On
each car will be a steward, two cooks.
three walters, and chambermaid to
wait Epon lady patrons. 1t is the in
tention of the company 10 furnish the
best meals that money can buy, and
choice wines and cigars will be attain
able by those desiring those luxuries.
These hotel cars will leave Chicago
on the California Express" and run
through Ia the Missouri river. On the
west-bound train. dinner, supper aad
breakfast will be served. The east /
bonnd hotel cars will leave Omaha On /
the sat antic Express" each Gay. in
the afternoon. On this train supper.
breakfast and dinner Will be served
Thus passengers bound in either direc
tion will be enabled to have all their
meals en route and yet not leave their
palatial travelling parlor.
The only objection that has been
raised against the use of the hotel cars
has been Connected with the odors of
the kitchen. As we said before, this,
in these cars, will be entirely obviated;
no person, no matter how particular
be or she may be, will have cause to
make any objections on this score. In
the dining car you merely get your
meals. and as soon as you are through
eating you are showed out and started
or the coach or sleeper, so as to make
Dom for some other traveller who de-
Tres your place. While in these hotel
ars your berth will be secured through
ou will own it absolutely for the length
Il your trip, and it will be your own
or louBging, sitting, sleeping, and eat
ng purposes, as much as your own seat
q your own house. As it is not gener
lily known, dining cars are never run
ver the entire length of any route;
hey are taken On and set off of the
rain at stated meal times, while these
otel cars will be maze a part of the
rain and run through in the same way
the regular sleeping car.
On the admirable steel rail that is
ow laid on the Chicago & North West
n Railway, these elegant, sixteen
heel hotel cars will ride as easy aud =
ith as little noise or oscillation as a
.lloon that floats serenely through
q air; and we believe it will be found
be result that thousands will flock Y
this Pioneer Line, +" who have hith
to gone by some other route.
With these and other improvements
e people are very largely interested m
d we believe will join with us in con-
atulating the progressive manage
mt of this great line in this its most
vanced step; and unite with us in
7ing, the Chicago & North Western
ilway has become the foremost road
all the West. L
