ROYAL BLUE TRAINS.

In September last, railway officials
from London were sent to America, to
get ideas on the railway passenger
| service of the leading lines in this
country, and in their official report,
which was printed in the London
Times IN January, it was stated that
the "Royal Blue Line series of mag
! nifcent passenger trains, running be-
tween New York, Philadelphia, Balti-
more and Washington, lead the world
for quick and exquisite train service.
The Royal Blue Line" service con-
slsts OF nine elegant passenger trains
a day In each direction between the
cities named above. They are the
finest and fastest trains in the world.
Their equipment was built especially
for the service by the Pullman Com
pany, and includes every modern con-
venience known for the comfort Of
passengers. The trains are vestibuled
from end to end, and hauled by the
strongest and fastest locomotives in
the United States.
The exquisite day coaches of these
trains are worthy of special note.
They are beautifully upholstered,
each containing Washroom and
smoking compartment.
The parlor cars are the most pala-
tial ever built, being fully seventy
three feet long. In addition to this
service, three new parlor cars we're
added in April, and are the first Of
this kind ever run; they are richly up
holstered and ornamented throughout
in most beautiful designs. A ladies'
retirlng-room is provided in one end
| of the car. This room, which is six
| feet square, is furnished with beauti-
| full dresser with large mirror and a
number of drawers. On each side of
it are upholstered corner seats. In an
other corner is bookcase and station
ary washstand. The room was de-
signed for especial comfort of ladies,
who have always claimed men had the
best of it when travelling. The usual
smoking apartment, however, is at the
opposite end of the car.
| The dining cars are operated by the
| Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company,
and especial attention is given to the
menu. Every delicacy is served in
| season, and the service is unsurpassed.
In addition to the already perfect
service of "Royal Blue Trains" men
toned above, there will be put into
service May IS "Royal Limited"
train, which will leave New York at 90
P. NJ, making the run to Washington
in FIVE hours. Returning, the "Roy-
| al Limited will leave Washington at
800 P. NJ, arriving New York at $40
P M. The "Royal Blue Line" will
then boast of three trains which make
this extraordinary fast time between
Washington and New York, which
has never been attained by any other
line. The "Roval Blue Trains be-
tween Baltimore and Washington
make the run in FORTY-FIVE MIN
UTES-the fastest regular service ever
attained between the two cities

A Bostonite Afro. so happy and gay,
A heart as light as child's at play,
A comrade so gentle, kind and sweet;
From his curley crown to his dancing

A Yankee Afro. so brown and glad,
He never was sorrowfnl, never was

A singing with tender melodious voice
A heavenly message. Rejoice, rejoice.
We went thro' the war of Freedom s

We went thro' the war of Slavery's

We both came out with the Starry

And walked all over that rebel rag.
My comrade, my comrade is singing
Where the roses and lilies unfading
grow,
And l Hear, hear him with seraph
voice,
A chatting SO sweetly, rejoice, rejoice.
Rejoice for the promised time has
come,
Rejoice for the gladness of loves
sweet home;
Always singing the self-same song,
And mine eyes are beholding the ram

Hath a halo Of splendid celestial grace
And bis shining brow of the dusky

Wears comrades glorious patriotic

Now he chanteth to me with his

There's robe and palm and crown
for thee,
And all who have died for the Flag of
the Free.

AT THE THE THEATRES.
ANOTHER AMERICAN TRIUMPH

The Black Crook Company, spec
tacular extravaganza, something un,
usually splendid in a musical and
comedy line, and of quality calcu,,
lated to please the most enervated
and satlated of theatre-goers will be-
gin a weeks engagement at Kernan's
Lyceum Theatre, commencing Mon
day October 18TH. This company
is far above the average combl-
nation, being original In conception
and replete with new and up to date
ideas, intelligently carried out with
superior artistic and scenic effect.
The ingenuity of clever electricians
has been taxed to the utmost to car
ry out and perfect the ideas OF the
management, who are thoroughly sat-
iShed with the result attained. The cos
tuning is distinctly Partisan in design.
and embraces all that is pretty and
tasteful, a particularly rich comblna-
ton of color and design being shown
in the burlesque. Originally being the
objective point the usual First Part"
has been eliminated, having in its
place crisp two act Musical burletta
in which specialties are intro
duced by such we'll known artists
as, Ben Harvey and Company; Grace
Vaughn; Weston and Beasly; Hughes
and Hughes; VIM. Mitchell; Murray
and Everett; and others who will help
to make up performance to please
the most cosmopolitan as we'll as the
most exacting audience. Twenty
blushing examples of glorious Amer
ican feminity who can sing and dance
and who keeps things lively during
the action of the burlesque have been
specially engaged by this organization.
Taken altogether ii means two hours
and a half of solid clean fun, and
crowded houses are sure to be the rule
during this engagement.

THE STOCK MARKET.
BuIltsh in Tone, Closing Firm and
Fairly Active.

New York. Sept. Grading in the stock
market was resumed this morning after
the three days suspension OF business,
eral situation than those with some reIa-
ton to the money market. OF these the
most important were the showing of the
associated banks on Saturday and the an
nouncement of the Secretary of the
Treasury TO anticipate the payment of
United States currency 6s, due January
/, 1899
However, apart from somewhat firm
er tone, which found little appreciable re-
fiection in actual rates, there was no
change in money market conditions Still
the prevailing apprehensions in this re-
spect again served TO restrict active trad
ing in the days stock market.
Aside from the money market situation,
the most interesting news of the day was
furnished by the large number of state
ments of railway earnings published COW
ering various periods. The most note
worthy statement was made by the st.
Paul Company. AS has been foreshad-
owed in earlier unofficial reports, the road
has earned over per cent upon its COM
mon stock in the closed fiscal year. OF
equal Importance was the evidence that
the company's traffic is holding well up
with the heavy earnings of last year.
Foreign houses were large buyers of
stocks in this market, taking upward of
0000 shares of various issues. This cir
cumstance was without practical effect
upon prices, and, indeed, there was gen
eral and not unreasonable skepticism as
TO the origin of the ostensible foreign or
ders in this market. Sterling exchange
gave little reflection of the apparent ex-
tensive purchases for foreign account.
The granger shares, the Pacific stocks,
and other standard issues were again
| quite neglected in the days market where
speculative interest was largely taken
up with such stocks as Baltimore and
| Ohio. Union Pacific. and Reading. AL
| these advanced sharply.
| The weakness of Southern Railway and
| Louisville and Nashville reflected the re-
| ports as TO the spread of yellow fever in
| the South.
The Industrial shares received only q
moderate amount of attention and devel-
oped no special features. The course OF
Manhattan was erratic, as it has been for
a number of days. and nothing definite
was added to the news bearing upon the
stock
The market closed firm and fairly ac-
| tive.

FREE TRANSPORTATION
Committee on Street Railways Meets
md Takes Actfon.

The subcommittee on street railways,
appointed by the chairman of the gem
eral committee on arrangements, met at
the Ebbitt House last evening.
The representatives of the various
roads present announced their willing
ness TO meet the views of the general
committee on arrangements in granting
free transportation to the members of
the District Regiment over their lines
between the date of their return and
the 1st of October.
After a general exchange of views, and
on motion of William J. Dante of the
Washington and Great Falls Electric
Railroad, it was unanimously resolved
that a committee of three be appointed
by the chair to arrange with the local
roads the basis upon which this free
transportation should be extended to the
District Volunteers, the committee to re-
port on Saturday night, the 10th instant,
to which time an adjournment was
taken.

PREPARING FOR DEPARTURE.
The District Troops Anxious for
Thursday to Come.

Camp Wikoff, Montauk Point, Sept. g.
All is anxiety and hustle in the camp of
the First District Regiment here. The
boys seem to be afraid that Thursday will
never arrive, yet the day was spent in
packing up and preparing for the journey
home
Two OF the regiment were sent TO the
hospital this afternoon One of them,
Sergt Dobson Company D, had struggled
to keep well long enough to get home, but
became so seriously III that he had TO go
today.
The other patient was Private Charles
Taylor, Company E. Both are suffering
from typhoid.
Three of the troops were returned from
are Private E. L. Connolly, Company E.
and Privates Harbart and Gattell, Com
pany l.
AS a result of pay day many of the
boys spent the day away from the camp
and few of them forgot to return at
bedtime. The provost guard managed to
pick up few patches of wandering Dis
| trict soldiers and returned them 10 their
| quarters with little ceremony. Few of
| them were disorderly, however, as they
| are compelled to travel a long distance
| from camp TO obtain anything TO drink
| Col. HAIRLESS Plans Unchanged.
No change has yet been made in the
| original program laid out by Col. Harries.
| The regiment will leave here on Thursday
at noon. according to his statement, and
will arrive in Washington on Friday at
| 8 a. m.
| The camp has become a lively place
since the decision has become generally
known. Every night many of the boys
sit around and sing, or listen to the bands
and talk of the preparations being made
| for them.
Many of them are surprised at the idea
| of presenting them with wreaths and
| bouquets and claim that they do not de-
serve anything of the kind.
The regiment will be inspected by Col
| Harries before leaving for home, and the
| members have scrubbed and polished their
accouterments so that they will make a
| fine appearance going into Washington.
| The weather here is damp and foggy
| and sick call this morning developed q
| dozen fresh cases of rheumatism.
The water is getting bad and tastes mur.
| ky. The well is but twenty feet deep
