TRAINS RACING.
Two Have an Exciting Squirt Be
tween Memphis and Atlanta.


tween Memphis and Atlanta.
A few days ago two trains on rival
roads had race from Memphis to At
lanta, over 500 miles. One train was on
the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
and the other on the Mckenzie and West
ern and Atlantic. The distance via the
latter route is So miles shorter than on
the other line, but the train by the Mem
phis and Charleston and East Tennessee
left Memphis one hour and forty minutes
ahead OF the Western and Atlantic train.
The East Tennessee train lett Chatta-
nooga about an hour ahead of the West
ern and Atlantic train, but the latter
overlook it just below Dalton. The two
roads here run parallel for five and one
half miles, and there was an exciting
race between the two, which resulted in
the Western and Atlantic leaving the
East Tennessee train behind.
The Western and Atlantic train got in
Atlanta two hours ahead OF the East
Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia train.
