The Rock Island has inaugurated new feature,
which promise to create considerable interest in
railway Improvement, il being free tourist car
service, with nearly ali the conveniences OF the
palace car including eolored porter in attendance
fine hair mattresses. pillows, blankets, soap, etc
When made up for the night, the fourteen sec
tons are partitioned OF with sliding panels and
cuFtained with heavy damask draperiee. Tables,
attachable to the sides of the interior. are pro-
vided for each section. The cars are heated by
steam, the aisies carpeted and cuspidors for the
cleanliness Of the cars. are added. The duties Of
the porter accompanying each car VIII be similar TO
those OF the palace car service-to look after the
wants Of the passengers and see that the car is
kept perfectly clean. In zone end is the ladies'
lavatOry, and in the other, one for gentlemen,
which nicely appointed and furnished as the
most fastidious would desire. The intention of
the Chicago, Kansas & Nebraska is to furnish
these cars free of charge to tourist or excursion
parties when the number OF persons is sufficiently
/ lurge to Justify the of a car or cars. With
/ such accommodations, and without charge, there
! is no further necessity Of a Western tour without

make such trip expensive. It is great induce
ment for parties. clubs, or any considerable num-
Mountains, for instance. And, too, the Denver

Terrible Girl Slavery in Wisconsin
There has come to light evidence
Of the most cruel and brutal treat
ment of girls IN the lumber districts
of northern Wisconsin. The coarsest
and worst men work at logging IN the
timber. Demons, IN human form,
kidnap girls and procure them in var
ious ways, take them to that region,
put them into places where escape is
impossible, and compel them to sub
NIT to outrage for money which goes
into the pockets of the owners of the
dives. These dens are surrounded
| by high close fence that cannot be
scaled, and blood hounds are kept to
prevent the escape of the victims.
Just now the Wisconsin Legislature
is investigating the matter. Miss
Kate Bushnell, a good woman gath

the Legislature. The Chicago Nelrs
Says Of it:
