'THE FINEST AND FASTEST
TRAIN IN THE West

This headline refers 10 the
twenty-eight hour train between
Denver and Chicago via the U. P.

and Chicngo & North Western Ry.,
which was innugurnted Feb. 9th.
The time of this train is five
hoprs faster than the former sched-
nlc between Denver and Chicago,
and its average speed ia greater
than that attained by my ol.er
train save thn iimited trains be-
tween Chicago ard New York
Leaving Denver each afternoon ut

S.45 p. NJ. the following day-but
one night and day being con-
sumed in the trip from the Rockies
to the Great Lakes-n feat in rail
roading which few years ago--was
thought impossible.
The equipment of this train is
entirely new and comprises the
most modern idens which have in
recent years been applied for the
comfort and convenience of travel
ers. There is, besides the regu-
lution baggage and mail cars, com
posite car-something entirely new
in the West which is n combina-
ton OF library, parlor, smoking
room and buffet, in which there is
a bath room and a barber shop
presided over by first class ton.

As to the outward appearance, the
train is of uniform color with the
new-wide vestibule ends, which |
gives the appearance 10 the train
Of being one continuous palace car
With little observation compart-

This train will certainly prove
most popular, especially rs no ex-

state with retinue of 100 persons and be-
gan the negotiation. 1t had scarcely begun
when it was interrupted by an attempt to
assassinate Ii Hung Chang, in which he
received an ugly bullet wound in the face.
He had already fully regained the conf
dence Of the Emperor, who now sent two
OF his principal surgeons to attend the
wounded statesman, and expressions of
sympathy were universal. The incident re-
suited in Ii Hung Changes complete restor-
alton to power and popularity. His present
disgrace is an outcome of the British
Russian rivalry for precedence in China,
and is probably due to his greed in accept
ing some big bonus from Russian agents
for territorial or commercial advantages.
England is not in the habit of lying down"
