We once heard told Of q
passenger travelling on tie Houston .
Texts Central IN m early day, when rail
rolliagin Texss was in its infancy. WheI
he line was completed TO Denis)n tn
managers ran q fret claas coach from Hous
Goa to HeaIRe; arriving there they run

enAt part OF the trip in daylight, from thor
to Dsnison they run s5cJnd.c lass car, ou
instead OF running through the came do
they laid over in Corsicang and started mex
morning, running through to Denison /
daylight. This was very good for peopl
who were prospecting, but PARTICULAR
unpleasant to a business man In hurry
The passenger 10 whom We refer did no
kaow the custom of the road and apr oacl
ing the conductor said: Don't We go o
through 20 Denisen TO Dight?" Hereceiye
a negative reply. Then said he;
is this not all ono liner

"when do We 20 through
Tomorrow" was The conductors re
ply.
After muaing a moment the passenge
said: "Wel It is a ID poor road tina
don't conn ct with ITSELF"
