Nashville, Juno 3.-Thc close of the
present century il appears is to be
marked with great eXpositiOns. First
there came the Worlds Fair, ut Chicu-
go, then the San Francisco Midwintcr
Exposition, the Atlanta undertaking
and now the celebration Of the adms-
sion of Tennessee into the Union.
These shows have been Of untold brnc-
years and years. Not only do .lffrv
bring together thousands 1nd thous-
ands of people from vasiisris States, but
they arc educat9GGss;==-Sthe most pleasant
Eln1 oott-ifnfisSttrtictors. They show what
II great and what Il fertile country this
is we live in. They eXcmplify the pro-
grcSS and thrift OF certain sections Of
tho country, and give the object lesson
to other States. If Carolinians who
went to Nashville only accept one thing
they saw in the Volunteer State il will
be that much Of u gain. Other States
may catch other ideas, but the Palmct-
to State could not do Il wiser or better
thing than to model her roads after
the magnificent pixies that traverse the
section of Tennessee visited in II trip
incident to tho Exposition.
When President Aull, of the State
Press Association, announced that he
had arranged for Il trip to Nashville
for tho mcmbcrs Of the Association
there was JOY in tho camp. The pro-
posed trip was on pleasant us well us
profitable lines, and very many moro
than were able to go hoped to have
that pleasure. The newspaper man,
however, cannot always arrange to get
off when he elects. Mr.. Aull thought
of the convcnicnces of making the trip
in " Pullman car, and n happy suggcs-
lion it was, for it brought together Il
mOst cOngcnial sct Of newspaper work
crs and was an economical plan. The
car "Dnieper" was in waiting for the
party at Cross Hill. after the editors
had q most Ell jOyablo afternoon ut the
GriehrniAMi Harris Lijhia Springs. Here

THE RAILROAD MEN.
There was u brief stop in Atlanta on
Friday morning; just long enough for
II comfortable breakfast at Durant's s
and II stroll about the last Exposition
City. The Scaboard Air Line, which
always does the right thing, had the
special to arrive in Atlanta on time.
Mr.. :, II. Latmer, Of the Nashville,
Chatsanooga and st. Louis Road an
his rt4atl and came on TO Atlanta with
the t,Mrists. Tho Western and Allan
ta al1Asthc Nashville, Chattanooga and
St, Gonis are under ono management,
s$and1it is u great railway system. 1t
runs fine and fast trains, and knows
I how to mako things pleasant for its pt-
irons. General Passenger Agent IIar-
mon, of the Western and Atlantic,
hoped to 90 on with the Carolinians,
but could not do so, and Mr.. j. H. Lat.
liner, OF the Nashville, Chattanooga
and ST. Louis Road, made the trip, and
q plcasantcr companion or bcttor chap
cron could not have hccn secured. The
Western aud Atlantic passes through
battlefield aftcr battlefield, and no one
knows moro about them or Of their tra-
ditions than does Mr.. Latimcr.

paigns of the gigantic "war between
the States" was there q more notable
display OF adroit, wary, far reaching
strategic genius and prudent, patient,
watchful care on the part Of the great
commanders; Of Jealous, skilfnl and
fearless leadership by their field OFF,
GERS, or of more heroic bravery, forti-
tude and cheerful endurance by the
