A New AuthOr-Mrs. M. L. 0owleS.
This charming lady has written q
story Of southern plantation life after
the war and the book has just been pub
lished by the Arena Publishing Company
under the title of "Redbank.". The
author is one Of those fortunate women
who evidently knows and appreciates all
sections Of her country, for she dedicates
her book TO my four daughters, whose
hearts know no dividing line between
the north and the SOUTH"
Mrs. COWles herself belongs to that
class Of brilliant southern women whose
graceful accomplishments and sparkling
wit made the "Old Regime" one long
to be remembered.
Her book faithfully represents an in
teresting phase of southern life just
when the people were learning to adapt
themselves to their new conditions,
A friend who knows Mrs. Cowles well,
once applied to her the beautiful appela-
tion Sweetness and light" and this
might be the title of her beautiful book.

Bureau Of Information.

"The Burlington" has recently estab-
lished in convenient quarter Of it's ele-
CANT and commodious passenger station,
Chicago, an Office designed to afford trav-
elers information on the thousand and
one things they need to know, with re-
gard to routes, rates, connections and ac-
commodations. 1t has been placed in
charge of an experienced man, supplied
with all railway guides, maps and time
tables, and is known as the Bureau Of
Information" 1t is place to which all
travellers may apply for information and
receive q full and correct answer. This
is the only Office Of the kind west of the
sesboard cities and it cannot but prove
q help and convenience to the travelling
public. All trains Of the Burlington"
enter and depart from this station, and
the intelligent and valuable service of
the bureau may be enjoyed by all patrons
of this line.
A special pamphlet will be issued by
the Burlington" in the near future,
giving accurate Information as to "How
to get to the Worlds Fair grounds; how
to secure rooms and board at the various
hotels, boarding and lodging houses"
TrurtWorthy agents will be at the c.,
B. & Q. depot in Chicago, to impart all
information to visitors. Arrangements
will probably be made by which some
trains will be run direct to the Worlds
Fair grounds without change or delay.

Rates to Chicago.

CHICAGO, Ill. April 24.-The statement
made by President F. 7. Jeffrey, of the
Denver & Rio Grsnde, that before
long his company would announce a $45
rate between Chicago and Colorado
common points, was received with some
uneasiness by passenger agents here,
and the feeling is general that if the
Denver & Rio Grsnde attempt any
such rate it will be promptly squelched.
The rate announced by Mr.. Jeffrey is a
reduction Of about 10 per cert. from the
established rate, and as the Burlington
& Rock Island are the hackers of the
Denver & Rio Grande any cuts in rates
made by the Denver & Rio Grande will
be promptly laid at their doors. The
Atchison will, if the $45 rate is made,
promptly make a reduction in rates be-
tween Kansas City and Chicago, and
then there will be no stopping the fight.
