Pullman dining car is most excellent
and me and my wife enjoys it very
much. This is great route.
The bride then put in and got q
say. 81 was alone working on
Staten Island dyeing clothing. I had
worked there 80 long and hard and I
was tired. Mr.. Sauer had no wife
and he got no children to bother me,
so l told him / would marry after
he asked me three times. So we are
now married. Oh! lam happy, and
his other wife is dead.
Subsequently they learned from a
conductor that | was a deacon and
they were exceedingly rejoiced.
LEAVING A DRUNKEN HUSBAND.
My husband is a butcher and
drinks poor whisky and makes q
beast of himself" said little lady
with mild but bright blue eye, who
boarded the train at Philadelphia with
two children. My name is Lizzie
Moylan and / am going to visit my
mother at st. Joseph, Mo-, until II
can have a reformed husband in
Philadelphia. He is a good man,
kind husband and indulgent father
when sober and" and the tears welledJ
to her eyes as she toyed with the
faxen ringlets of her little daughter,
who stood gazing out of the car win
dow at the flying landscape in central
Pennsylvania.
"Such delightful railroad to travel
on and the attendants 50 kind to me-
and my children, that / almost forget
my sorrow and my sadness. l have
travelled but little, but if it is all like
this, it seems to me if / would never
tire" said the little lady as she en-
deavored to amuse her baby that was
fretful.
A TEMPERANCE MASS MEETING.
In the smoking room, thirty min.
utes later, temperance mass meet |
ing was in full blast and everybody
Joined except the distiller.
Frank Wyman, of st. Louis, said
he could endorse temperance more
thoroughly than ever after hearingi
Mrs. MoylaD's pathetic story of her |
wrongs. Going at the rate of fifty
miles an hour was very slow speed on
the Vandalia Line, compared with
the speed to destruction attained
by men who would drink
whisky, which led to all vices and
crimes in the catalogue. His senti- !
ment was strong for temperance and
for the never-failing, alwsys-on-time
Vandalia line between New York and
the west.
An elderly gentleman, German
Henry Bargerind, from Baltimore
said "Of all the routes travel, this
Pennsylvania and Vandalia line ID
certainly as good, if not better, than
any. Not one time in twenty do they
fail to make their schedule time to st,
Louis in coming west, or New York,
Washington and Baltimore in going
east. Excellent service, fine accom-
modations, and the smoothest track.
He told how fearfully Baltimore was
under the rule of the saloons.
"Just 30 in st. Louis" said Mr.
Harry Brookings of that city. He told
some very touching tales of st. Louis
life and its designations, but he also
told the simplest and most matter of
fact incidents regar1ing the facilities
offered by the Vandalia line between
the east and west.
When the train was nearing the
Mississippi river passengers babe each
other goodbye and God speed.
When the union depot was reached
all disembarked, and the last / saw of
The bride and groom they were stand
ing at lunch grabbing counter dis
'ecting hard boiled eggs and ham
sandwiches, the date of which were
not recorded.
Believing that the democratic SOW
