NEWS OF THE RAILWAYS.
~ChIcaEo's Great Road, the Famous Mapi

~- E-mt
UhIcaro's Great Road, the Famous Maple
Leaf Line.
The Chicago. st. Paul & Kansas City was
tho first railroad in tho country to issue
special transportation advertising for the
Worlds fair at Chicago. That ID enterprise
and an illustration Of the sort Of manage
ment that within a few years has trans
formed tho Chicago, st. Paul g. Kansas
City from a short and unimportant line,
with little to encourage its continuance, to
one OF tho most prominent and most pOpu-
lar lines in tho northwest. With its tsrmi-
nails in Chicago, Kansas City and st. Paul,
it unitss tho east, the northwest and the
southwest. Thc territory it embraces is
tho garden spot Of America. In it dwell
3,0O0,OW people whom this great road no.
Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri and Kansas are
tapped by its lines.
Tho general headquarters Of the road is
nt st. Paul. while the freight and pas
senger departments direct their business
from Chicago. In the latter city the com
pany's trains arrive at and depart from the
Grand Central passenger station, COM
pleted At tina beginning Of tbs present year,
md acknowledged to be without a peer in
this country. The three main lines OF tbs
road unite at Oslwein, in Northeastern
Iowa. Aside from these are several short
branches, all Of Importance, the longest
being from Sumner to Hampton, Iowa.
Tho latter state is divided nearly in halves
by the road, which crosses its very finest
portion. The mileage in Missouri, Kansas
and Minnesota is comparatively small. but
in Illionols again increases, the northern
and most populous part Of the Prairie
state 1sverborating to the thunder Of its
trains.
Much Of the success of the road is due to
the ability and energy Of a railway man
we'll known to many in Rochester, w. r.
Buscnbark, the traffic manager of the road.
In his intercourse with the patrons of the
road he has won thousands of friends for
himself and his company.
The equipment of the Chicago, st. Paul
d Kansas City is uuexcalled by that of any
road in the country. Its v%estibuled COM
partment sleeping oars are models of lux
ury, comfort and convenience. No other
line west of Chicago runs compartment
sleeping cars. The dining car service is
fully up to the requirements of the most
fastidious and luxury-loving of modern
travellers. In short the Chicago. st. Paul
81 Kansas City is the best line between Chi
cago and st. Paul, Minneapolis and the
northwest, between Chicago and the prin-
cipal points IN Iowa, between Chicago and
the southwest. Persons going from east
ern points to Chicago and beyond will do
we'll to bear these facts in mind.-ROches-

An Incident.

The editors of Missouri were in con-
vention at Jefferson City last week and
a royal good time did they have.
An amusing incident may not be
out of place.
The hotels were pretty well crowded,
but Notwithstanding this the brainy
boys were well taken care Of and they
went home with a kindly feeling to-
ward the Capital City and the hotels.
In assigning the gentlemen to rooms,
the clerk put L. B. White of the
Warsaw Enterprise and e. III. STREET
Of the Sedalia Gazette in the same
room and it was occupied by them
jointly. tits known that Mr.. Whites
eye sight is defective and this is what
resulted.
Friday morning, White got up fist
AID and after performing his usual
additions he sought towel to dry his
face and seeing something white on a
chair near the, wash stand he seized it
for a towel and dried his face and
hands remarking that Jefferson City
does have such queerly constructed
towels"
After completing his toilet he left
ths EO2Rd and ID then eSm PIE %AfRs Bis toilet
he found that White had unwit lingly
mistaken his carefully preserved shirt
for towel and there STREET. was with
only a soiled linen garment to attend
the Governors reception in.
The clmplacent Sedalia editor rang
the bell and gave the colored bell boy
S1.5O, telling him to 60 out and bny
a shirt. In about ten minutes the boy
returned with a shirt that can be
bought anywhere three for one dollar,
but the S1.50, so far as STREET. was con-
cernel, was exhausted in the purchase.
Mr.. White returned home yester-
day ignorant of his mistake for which
he of course would have made due
amends had he been apprised of the
use of the improvised towel.
And STREET., if you see him around
town with an undergarment on strik-
ing him a little below the watch
pocket and giving him the appearance
of being choked, why take it for
granted that he has on that $3.50 JEFF
terson City shirt.

Fine Art Display.

The display of magnificent works Of
art which are to be seen at F. III.
Eastey's is attracting wide attention.
Particularly does his display of water
colOrs excite admiration since among
them is marine view entitled "Off
MOnigau Island" by the celebrated
water color artist Weber; one entitled
"Glimpses of Seneca Lake." one en-
titled Cattle Disturbed" one 1.-The
Noon Hour" etc. All of these are
finished in the highest style of art and
are simply masterpieces which cannot
be duplicated, because they are origl-
nal. One of these which deserve
special mention in this connection is a
sketch of the Church of San Saluta
in Venice" and certainly its beauty
will win it wide admiration both for it's
coloring and delicate shading.
The Sedalia weekly bazoo. [volume] (Sedalia, Mo.) 187?-1904, 1891-02-24

works at a much less expense than at
Parsons. However, the III. K. & T.
is not favorable to St. Louis interests,
and l presume this move is made
with a view of still further ostracising
our good will. Railroad moves on
the chess board of business are not
made with the same calculation that
apply to other lines"
"The transfer of the headquarters
from Sedalia would be an outrage"
said Mr.. David D. Walker of the Ely
81 Walker dry goods company.
whatever reasons the road may ad-
vance for desiring to make the change
the claims of Sedalia and Missouri
more than overbalance them. The
road will feel the effects of the dis
pleasure in their freight business from
st. Louis should they carry out their
intentions"

After two long years of pain pa
tiently borne and heroically endured,
the spirit of B. E. Meredith took its
flight yesterday morning. ALI that
long period the young man had lain
in bed, suffering intensely much of
the time, and never for a moment re-
leased from the cruel grasp of disease.
Hardly ar any hnnr 1nr;ns those Ii.
gering years of fever and anguish did
single ray Of hope break through the
unhappy clouds. The shadow settled
deep and heavy and not till the light
from the celestial land flashed upon
his Immortality awakened eyes did that
same shadow ever lift.
The mercy of medicine was literally
bestowed. The ministrations of de-
voted mother were ever athand. The
tender care of loving sisters grew ten
derer as the frail form of the poor
sufferer grew feebler. Brothers and
true friends were continually at his
bedside to lend what aid and SYM
pathy lay within human power.
Never before was the loyalty of fami-
y affection or of friendship more
thoroughly tested or more strikingly
illustrated than in this case.
Written upon plate of silver on
the lid of the casket in which the BODY
OF the young man rests are the elo-
quent words, "At Rest" Never were
they more appropriately used than In
this instance, for his life in its latter
years was one long strife against dis
ease and the struggle literally wore
him to mere shadow of his former
self.
The funeral will take place at 2
o'clock this afternoon from the resi-
dence of his mother, Mrs. Elizabeth
Meredith, No 800 Moniteau street, to
the M. E. church, South, and thence
to the city cemetery.

LATER.
Off for Jefferson City.

A large number of prominent citi-
zens will leave to-day by special car
for Jefferson City where they will en-.
deavor to present the claims of s. dalia
in a fsir and impartial, yet convincing
manner to the members of the Gener-
al Assembly as the proper location of
the capital and with all due regard to
the citizens of Jefferson City will en-
deavor to help the fifth state in the
union take rank with her sister states
by giving her capitol building worthy
of her, instead of ruin which would
not do discreiit to ancient Thebes.
The gentlemen will return home to-
morrow and they expect to bring the
capitol with them.

j. W. KNIGHTS DELEGATES.
Mrs Reese Robbed.

Yesterday morning a lad named
Dee Shaefer, called to see his friend,
Melvin Reese at the home Of his moth
er on South Ohio street. Melvin was
in bed, lame from a recent injury to
his leg. Mrs. Reese had LETT one of
her dresses lying on a sofa iu the room
and Shaefer, who is only fourteen
years old, suspecting that it might
have pocket book about it, slipped
his hand into the skirt, drew out a
pocket book, extracted SO, 10 there
from, slipped out of the room, hid a
part of the money in his shoe, spent
some of it for cigarettes and was hav-
ing a good time. Mrs. Reese soon
discovered her loss, and got officer
Mooney to arrest the lad. Nine dol
lars were found in his shoe and half
dollar in his pocket. The boy was
turned over to Constable Ramsey, who
took him before Justice Blair. He
was sent to Jail to await preliminary
trial.

A POETS PRINCESS.

BY GEORGE W. FERREL.
Thou art the Princess of my life
10 all the years that come and 20,
Through all the summers flush and flow,
And winter with Its winds and strife.
Thou art the Princess of my life.
They said to me that when the spring
Should gather up the April time,
And lead it with the grace OF rhyme,
Aud with the swiftness of q wing,
That thou wouldst fee as anything.
And yet again, that when the May
And summer of the year should pass,
Thou, too, wouldst vanish, and alas
Our love that fingered but day,
Would take to wing and then away.
! laughed at them with lip of scorn-
What right had they to doubt my heart
What skill to pierce the inner part,
If sny, where was subtly born
A falseness like mist at morn?
Thank God their dream of deed amiss,
Was nothing save an idle dream,
Full wrought but frail as any beam
From out that hollow. blue abyss
DSJOuu tuC hCu VI wOllu IlhC tuiSs
Dear heart of mine, the April tide
With drifts of bloom upon its breast,
Went outward down the glowing west,
Like any princess in her pride
As day by day the evenings died.
And then the summer of the year,
With roses from the garden plots.
And buncbes of forget-me-nots
Woven and placed upon its bier,
Went out beyond our vision here.
But thou, the heart and soul to me
Of all things lovely on the earth,
Bloomed still into newer birth,
Against the evil prophesy
Of many things that were to be.
Thou art the Princess of my life
In all the years that come and 60,
Through all the summers flush and how,
And winter with Its winds at strife
Thou art the Princess of my life.

Married

February II, at Keytesville, Mo. :,
by the Rev. A. P. Terrell, Mr.. G. P.
Vandiver, editor of the Charlton
Courier and Mrs. S. E. Vaughan.
After being married. Mr.. VaHdiver,
who is valued member of the Mis-
souri, Press association, hied himself
and bride to Jefferson City to attend
the winter meeting of the association,
where they met with hearty recep-
ton from the brethren of the press,
who extended congratulations, as
only those can who are co-workers in
the same line of industry and enter
prise.
Vandiver will indulge the BAzoo
in some fstherly aivice.
Always admire your wife's new
bonnet, no matter if it is horrid and
was taken in pay for an advertise
ment.
Never come home in a condition
"tOo numerous to MENTION"
When she asks for advice on any
matter of vital importance look wise
and as if you were giving your deep
est thought to the subject, even if you
are at the same time worrying your
mind who to make the next town con-
stable.
Don't take of your boots when you
come home late with the expectation
that you can get to bed without wax
ing her. She will be awake, never
fear, and you had much better kiss
her acknowledge your fault and
promise you will never do it again.
Don't ask your friend from Chicago
home to dinner when the baby is all
broke out with a rash-she wants to
show people that that baby not only
looks like its pa, but is as pretty as a
picture.
Finally, don't scold when she gets
little cross sometimes and don't
meet you as she used to do with her
best gown on and smile yard wide
remember she has aches you never
dreamed of and you are bound to
pet her and love her and pay her bills
and anyhow you would be a poor
sort of chap without her and life
would be hardly worth living
