A Novel Break An q RsIiroad journey
1t is not often that the usual tedium
incident to nine hour journey is broken
into so comfortably as is this new dav
service over the Pennsylvania Railroad
to Boston. The novel aud delightful
feature is the circuit ride around New
York Harbor on board the huge steamer
Maryland, which acts as a transport
for the entire train of parlor cars and
day coaches, and while the sights of one
of tho busiest harbors in the world glide
by In panoramic order the traveller is
dining like a lord on board the
boat Thus for an hour. until
the steamer reaches Harlem river. and
the entire engine takes up the train for
the second edition of the trip, he regales
himself in a change of scenery the
beauty of which is intensified by a GOOD
dinner. This new train leaves Philadel
phla at 11.30 a m week DAYS. and
reaches Boston at 900 o'clock the same
evening Returning. it leaves Boston
10 a. M, and reaches Broad Street
Station at 100 p. M. The petty annoy
ances Of travel nave, in our day. been
reduced TO a minimum. and this daylight
ride to Boston is certainly one Of the
best illustrations

ALV0RD.

Arrangements for Grand Fourth of July
Picnic-Fair Association Programme.
Special to the Gazette.
ALvoRD, TEX, May 22.-At q mass
meeting.ot the merchants and farmers of
Alvord and vicinity yesterday evening
arrangements were completed for a
grand picnic to be given here on July
next. All necessary committees were
appointed who went to work this morn
ing to successfully carry through their
respective duties. All the state, district
and county candidates will be invited to
attend and pass the day for their pleas
ure and benefit. Everybody Is cordially
invited to attend. And now let all the
people of Wise and adjoining counties
look on, and see the citizens of AlVord
and vicinity, whose fame for hospitality
is unexcelled, give the grandest picnic
Wise county has ever known.
The third annual exhibit and races of
the Alvord far association will be held
October z to IL, inclusive. The premium
list, which is now ready for the press, is
the most liberal ever offered by the as
ISOLATION. It has been especially ar
ranged for the beneflt and encourage
ment of home interest in stock raising,
agriculture and orchard. The racing
feature will be the best and most COM
plete of any yet offered by any Northwest
Texas association.
Samuel Winter, an old and we'll known
citizen of this place, died here late yes
terday evening. Mr.. Winter was born
in 1919 in Mississippi, was the father of
eleven children, nine daughters and two
sons, all living in this county excepting
one daughter in Mississippi and one at
Ardmore, 1. T. He lived to see his
children all grown, and all married ex-
cept his youngest daughter. He had
just 100 grandchildren, and something
near half that many great grandchildren.
He could. neither read nor write, but
had accumulated considerable property
by industry and economy. His estate is
estimated by intimate friends to be
worth at least $40, 900. Funeral SER
vices were conducted by Rev. S. q.
Slaughter, pastor Baptist church at this
place.
