be taxed to its utmost with those who

ed farce which ran for four morths in
New York, and is the one American
farce to score a success in London,
where ii is running at the Strand thea

more than 4 commonplace merit to it :.
Farces such as What Happened to

NORTHERN PACIFIC'S IMPROV.
ED SERVICE


This i. what it means. On and after
March 18th, 1899, the Northern Pacific
Railway will start two trains each dav
flying westward from it's eastern ter
mlnals. At the same time-not at ex-
actly the same hours--two trains will
also leave Its western terminals for
the east. There will then be, each dav
moving over the 1000 miles of main
track between st. Paul, Minneapolis,
Duluth and West Superior at tue east,
and Seattle, Tacoma and Portland on
the Pacific Coast, fourteen of these
trains-in both dlrectons-goiny at
the same time and this in a country
where 20 years ago the buffalo were
roaming. These trains will be known
as No. !, the Puget Sound Limited, No.
3,the Oregon Limited going west, and
No. . the Twin City Mail. No the
Twin City Express. going east, and
will contain IN the aggregate more
than 100 cars of various sorts. Each
train will have a mail car, a baggage
coaches, Free Colonst Sleeping car.
a Pullman Tourist Sleeping ear, a
Dining car and one or more Pullman
First Class Sleeping cars, so that
everybody and everybody's pocket
book can be accommodated. The DIN
ing cars are part OF the solid through
trains and no one need therefore 20
hungry.
Train No will leave West Superior
at SD AIN. tram No. 3 at 7:i3 pm,
after all trains have arrived from the
east and south, morning and evening,
Train No. . will leave Portland at ll:3O

arriving Al West Superior 400 .. m,
and go a. m. respectively, in time tor

via Butte. III each direction These
Trains run through the most important
cities in the nor Invest and are hauled
by new and enormous Schenectady To-
comotives, making, when necessary,
- or 50 miles an hour.
These diurnal trains will amply ac-
commodate the large immigration and
tourist travel that seems probable this
