FROM THE NORTH 10 TROPICS
The Atlantic Coast Line Issues a Hand.
some Map of Its Lines Of Railway
Some of its Features

We have received a handsome wall
map which has just been issued and is
being distributed by the Atlantic
Coast Line. 1t is Is inches wide by 80
inches in length, and contains a clearly
and beautifully printed map Of the
eastern part of the United States from
Massachusetts to Florida and excel
lent maps of Cuba, Porto Rico, Hayti,
Jamaica, and other West India islands.
The railway lines of the Atlantic Coast
Line are laid down in red, and travellers
are given a most admirable idea of the
splendid railway system.
The Coast Line gives a magnificent
vestibuled train service from Boston,
New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore,
Washington and other cities to points
in the south as far as Florida. The
map also shows it's connections at
Miami, Tampa and Key West with the
lines Of the Florida East Coast Steam
ship Company, and the Plant Steam
ship Company to Havana and Santiago,
Cuba, Porto Rico, Hayti, Jamaica, and
other parts of the West Indies.
The Atlantic Coast Lines map, be-
sides it's contour of railway lines, con-
tains very handsome lithograph cuts
Of the capitol and other public build
ings in Washington, THE Battery" at
Charleston, lake and other sub-tropical
scenes in Florida, and scenes in Cuba.
1t is easily seen by the map that the
Coast Line traverses and reaches the
garden spot Of the world, and one can
see at glance that this system is one
of Americas most important railways.
The Coast Line now operates about
$500 miles of railway, and certainly a
great future is in store for it. Its able
management is making it one of
Americas most successful railway sys-
TENS, and it is destined to be a vast
means of developing the south and the
West Indies.

EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS
To be Called If This Congress Fails to
Pass the Army organization Bill

Washington, February 15.-The SEN
ate committee on military affairs, af-
ter several conferences today reached
an agreement that the army re-or-
ganization bill should be reported to-
morrow, practically without recon-
mendation.
The committee, with Mr.. Proctor abb
sent in Cuba, was a deadlock on the
question of favorably reporting the
measure
The democrats simply agreed to let
the bill be reported, reserving the right
to make statement Of their position
and showing the committee to be even
ly divided.
The President has conveyed assur-
ances to some of the party leaders in
congress, in addition to those given
last week, that he will certainly call
congress together in extra session IL ii
fails to pass the army reorganization
bill at the present session. In answer
to repeated inquiries, the administra-
tion has been obliged to decline ali
propositions looking to the tiding over
of the needs of the army by passing a
joint resolution simply extending the
appropriation on the basis OF the pres
ent organization, holding that this de-
vice would be Utterly inadequate to meet
the absolute necessities of the case
The status of the volunteers. would ii
