A Chance to Choose.

In the early days of railroads, the
passenger had 'Hobson's Choice" of
accommodations the passenger
coach (such as it was) or walk. During
the war for the Union, Mr.. Pullman
came upon the scene and invented the
sleeping car. Still it was "Hobson's
Choice''-unless you paid an aditiona
charge, and tipped the POTTER also.
Now it is fact, that there are many
persons rich enough to buy railroad
ticket, and intelligent enough to travel
without getting lost, and who do not
care to pay extra for either comfort or
righteousness. The Burlington Route
was quick to reconize the existence of
this fact, and equips all it's principal
passenger trains with reclining chair
cars and makes no extra charge to any
one. for occupying seats in them. Its
morning and: evening trains between St.
Paul and Minneapolis on the north, and
Chicago and St. Louis on the east and
south, carry these cars. Make note of
it, and ask your home agent for tickets
via the Burlington Route, or write to w.
J. c. Kenyon, Gen. Pass. Agent, St.
Paul, Mimi.

1t is Not True.

In behalf of St Anthony Lodge 2s77 G..
10. ofO. F. We dispute the charge
made from the pulpit OF St. Peters A.
NJ. E. church on Nov. 18th, 1892, bv
Rev. L. J. Phillips. Saying that on the
night of the entertainment that was given
by the St. Anthony Lodge Nov. 10 h.
1892. to which he was invited to be one
Of the orators of the evening. (But Mr..
Phillips failed to show up as he had
prom sed.) He claims to have been
there, but the committee of arrange
ments were not aware of hi presence.
For an excuse he makes an apology to
his church, not to the Lodge to which
he had engaged him,elfto speak to. He
claims he cav card playing in the hall,
this we boldly announce to be false, fur
ther if Mr.. Phillips was at the hall at all
be was there before the hall was in ou1
possession. We extended to the Rev
Phillips the same courtesy we have to
all other pastors of the St. Peters A. M
E church and have been highly appre.
ciated by the pastors ofSt. Peters church
As far as st. Anthony Lodge is concern
ed it can get along without Rev. Phillips
as we'll % it can with him, and if be
never had come into the State of Min
nesota We would have prospered the
same. ]. w. FISHER, n. G.

The Travellers MAGAZINE.

The initial number of The Travellers
Magazine has been laid on our desk.
1t will readily be surmised that it is de-
voted largely to railroad matters but it's
enterprisin: publisher Mr.. F.. G. Hine-
baugh and it's versatile editor Mr.. Ralph
Rupert Boyne have filled it with choice
reading matter of great variety and it
will be found to be very interesting from
the first to the last page of it's beautifully
illustrated cover. It is largely illustrated
throughout and is In every way credit
to its managers and will doubtless prove
to be literary monument to St. Paul.
Mr.. Hinebaugh formerly published THE
Earth" which he made a grand success
but is not in any way connected with
that publication at the present time hav.
ing some time since sold his Interest.
Mr.. Hinebaugh is born hustler and il

One OF the Best Catchsrs In ne Conn

One OF the Best catchsrs In me cesn-
try.
Richard d. Buckley, who, by his won
derful work behind the bat, takes rank
with the best catchers of tho country,
was born September n, 1859, at Troy, N.
Y.
He commenced playing ball while he
was attending school In his native city,
and showed such proficiency that he was
soon engaged to catch for one Of the lead
Ing amateur teams OF Troy. It was, how
ever, while with the Haymakers, of Troy,
that he first gained renown. His good
work behind the bat for that team led to
his first professional engagement in 1885,
with the Youngstown, o., Club. His
work In 1886, both behind the bat and at
the bat, gave him an extended reputation,
and the management soon realized that
the youngstown Club could not retain
him, although IL made Buckley a very
liberal offer to remain another year.
Buckley was sought after and offered
fattering inducements by several clubs
for the season Of 1880.
He ranked fourth In the Official fielding
averages In 1885, and his all around work
was of such satisfactory order that he
was re-engaged for the season of 1857. he
caught In no fewer than Atty champion
ship games in 1887, and had gained such Q
fine reputation as q catcher that he was
engaged by the indianapolis Club, Of the
National League.
When the Players League was organ
lied in 1890, and the New York Club was
greatly depleted In its playing strength,
Buckley, along with Glasscock, Denny
and Rusie, was transferred from the In
dianapolis Club to the New York Club.

INSTALMENT.

The instalmept plan of payment has been
adopted as best calculated to meet the wants
of all classes, although our Certificates can
be paid for I'm one or more payments by
those desiring To do so. The advantages
of bsing allowed to pay for a Certificate in
small monthly payments will be appreciated
by the majority of those who wish to visit the
Worlds Fair, and will enable very many TO
come who, II they waited until the "opening,"
would not have the ready money. Another
great advantage is In knowing beforehand
Just how much Il will cost, and having no an
noyance or uncertainty to anticipate.
