The New SpeciaI.

Mr.. John ID. Potts. assistant general
passenger agent OF the Chesapeake aud
Ohio. reports that the Washington and
Old Point special is doing an exception
ably large business.
The train is superb in its appointments
and rapid In its speed. 1t comes down
from Washington on Tuesdays, Thurs
days and Saturdays, and goes up Mon
days. Wednesdays and Fridays.
The dining car on this train Is the
only one than passes through Richmond.
Each meal served, so passengers say, is
IKE a banquet
There were fifty-seven passengers on
the down train Saturday night and there
were sixty bound for the North yester-
day.
a familiar phrase in former days, when
the press wished to say a complimentary
thing about "a train in this section OF tbel
country was: THE finest in the South"
Well. all this has changed. 1t can be
truthfully said that the Chesapeake and
Ohio's Old Point special is among the
finest in the United States, and, in some
features, is unequaled.
