safe to say that they will give great salts
faction to travellers.
Maine Central.
The summer service will present many
new and advantageous features. 1t is by
the mountain division that the World S
Fair traffic will be handled, and on this
division the most radical changes will be
made, express trains being run for the
first time.
The S.45 a. m. train over the mountain
division will be the Worlds Fair special,
and it will carry Wagner cars direct from
Portland to Chicago. 1t will run by the
way of Niagara Falls, over the Rome,
Watertown & Ogdensburg division of
the New York Central, and proceed
westward from Syracuse on the main
line of that system.
Atevening there will be two trains out
of Portland, instead Of one as formerly
The first one, leaving at COS p. M, will
be local train to Bartlett; the other,
leaving at S.15 p. m.,. will run express to
North Conway, making no stops between
this city and there, and will connect at
Montreal with the Worlds Fair train of
the Canadian Pacific. This train will
leave Portland with Canadian Pacific
sleeper. On certain days of the week
Canadian Pacific sleepers will leave other
Maine cities, like Bangor, Waterville,
Skowhegan, etc., and come to Portland,
where they will be attached to the s. Is p.
m. express. Thus the people of those
places may take the Worlds Fair Sleep
ers right at their doors.
From the mountains into Portland
there will also be some desirable changes
The Montreal express, which arrives at
Portland at 7.55 p. M, will run express
from North Conway. There will also be
an afternoon local train from North
Conway into Portland, arriving here at 5
p. M, in time for passengers to connect
with trains for the east. There are also
some six or eight new trains every day
between Lancaster and Whiteield, where
a considerable business has been devel-
oped. So much for the mountain divis-
ion, where the Worlds Fair travel will
be concentrated.
As for the travel into Maine from Bos-
ton and western points through Boston,
the summer arrangement will show nota-
BILE changes and improvements.
Of the trains east from Portland, the
Provincial Express leaves at p. M,
for Bangor and Bar Halbor, and Moose
head Lake via Danville junction, .arriv-
ing at the Mt. Kineo House at $50 p. m.
The LOS p. m. is q new express for
Pennington; the 1.25 new express for
Skowhegan, running without stop to
Danville Junction.
At sos p. m., for Augusta and Rock
land, returning from Rockland and reach
ing here at S.35 a. m. (this is an entirely
new train) at $40 for Lewiston and
Wateryille: at II p. M, for Bangor
and ST. John; and at 1856 a. m. for
Rockland, Bangor and Bar Harbor.
Passengers for cross points. via steam
er Frank Jones from Rockland, can
leave Portland at sos p. m. and spend
the night aboard the steamer, and take
through Pullman sleeper at 1856 a. m.
There is a string ofnew trains between
South Gardiner and Augusta, while 60
ing west there is a new fast express,
leaving Bar Harbor at 1890 a. M, and
running direct to Portland and Boston,
via Poland Springs, opposite the we'll
known Flying Yankee, which will pro-
coed as usual via Augusta, the former
running to Boston via the eastern and
the latter by the western division of the
Boston 6 Maine.
For Moosehead Lake. arrangements
have been made for through service, so
that passengers leaving Boston at a. m.
dine the same evening at Mt. Kineo at
$50 p. M, an entirely new arrangement;
returning, leave Mt. Kineo at about $50
a. M, arriving in Boston at $50 p. m.
As for Sunday trains, there will be two
each way between Portland and Lewis
ton, leaving Portland at $40 a. m. and
p. M, and two each way between Port
land and Rockland. while the 81 o. m.
train on the mountain division will run
Sundays also. These, in addition to the
regular midday expresses, will make
magnificent Sunday service.
An extra boat has been put on in
Frenchman's Bay, and landings will be
made daily at Sullivan, Lamoine, Han
cock Point, Sorrento and Bar Harbor.
