Pain approaching this city on any OF the
dumerous railroads that center here, he ex-
Claims, There come lot more visitors"
So it is. On every train that reaches Fort
Worth come great crowds. The hotel registers
are used up in no time, and the platform at the
Union depot is filed with baggage from morn
till night aad then till next morning again. No
doubt the workmen whose duty it is to handle
all this unusual amount Of baggage peculiar to
large crowds win be glad when cessation comes
to their labors. But they, as well as all others
who are in contact with the thousands of WISH
tors are doing their work grandly, adding no
little to Fort Worth's reputation for capacity to
entertain large crowds.
The spectacle Witnessed on Fort Worth's
street railway lines these days is inspiring to
the proud old hustlers OF Fort Worth, who have
labored and waited through these years to see
this city the center OF 3 large population and
bustling hive of moving humanity. In no other
city in the South can the sight be seen OF whole
trains OF cars on its street railway lines, drawn
by electric power, and every train loaded down
with passengers from morning till midnights
Such can be seen in Fort Worth these pregnant
days. And the service being given BY the street
railway lines to the teeming crowds is fine. No
person is compelled to wait for transportation
to any part OF the city, for fast cars are to be
had at any time going in any direction.
At the Palace the spectacle is grand one; one
that sirs the pride Of the citizens OF any part OF
Texas, not to speak of Fort Worth. To see
from afar wandering through this magnificent,
unique exposition of Texas products and
Texas intelligence is inspiring in,
deed. When. these visitors from abroad
