Cafe. Dining Car Service on Q. & C.
Route.

Commencing Sunday il ne 18th inst,
the train leaving New Orleans via the
Queen & Crescent Route at 1880 p. m.
daily for the summer resorts of Tennes-
see and Virgioia, and for Washington,
Baltimore, Philadelphia and New
York, will take on Cafe Dining Car at
Alfalfa, Ala, and carry it to Radford,
Va, serving meals q Ia carte.
This car returning will be attached
at Radford and run to Alfalfa.
The hours are very favorable, and
the service will be first class in every
particular.
The route of the car via Chatta-
nooga and through the Cumberland
and Blude Ridge Mountain region en-
ables the traveller to view some of the
most beautiful scenery in the country
while enjoying his meals.
The q Ia carte plan of dining car
enables the passenger to almost pro-
cure any sort of meal that suits his
fancy, from q cup of coffee and roll to
an elaborate spread, paying only for
what he orders.
This feature of the Queen & Cres-
cent service will, no doubt, be fully ap-
precisted by the travelling public, and
that 1t will receive very liberal patron
age cannot be doubted.
The through trains of the V. S. s. P.
and A. & V. r. r. from Shreveport,
Monroe, Vicksburg, jackson, etc,
making connection at Meridian with
the train carrying this Dining Car, and
passengers from these places will be
equally benefited by this service.
Yours truly,

Leased by the Southern.

1t is officially announced that the
Southern Railway Co. has secured con-
troll of the South Carolina & Georgia
line by lease. This movement gives
the Southern an entrance into Charles
ton, S. c., and adds another of the
important seaports Of the South to its
series of terminals. The South Caro-
lima u Georgia extends from Charles
ton to Augusta, Ga, also to Tennille
through its Augusta Southern division.
1t also has line to Columbia and to
Camden, i'll South Carolina, connecting
with the Southern Railway at Colum-
bia. By this lease to the Southern the
latter system will have a line of its own
from Ashville to Charleston by the way
Of Columbia, and will also reach Au-
gusta, Ca, and a number of important
towns in this State, also South Carroll
ma. The entrance of the Southern into
Charleston will mean the further de-
velopment of this port as an outlet for
foreign commerce.
1t is understood that the lease of the
South Carolina & Georgia only covers
this road proper, and has no bearing
upon the Charleston, Cincinnati &
Chicago, that has recently been en-
titled the South Carolina & Georgia
Extension Railroad. This line is now
in operation from Camden, S. c., to
Marion, NC Manufacturers Record.

No Perverts Out There.

Gen. Otis says in dispatch to Wash
ington that the volunteers in the Phil
ippines understand that they will be-
gin to leave for the United States the
latter part of the month";" and that
"they know the Importance of their
presence here at this time, and accept
the sacrifice which the United States
interests make imperative.
This is in line with letter received
from member of the First Tennessee
regiment, in which the writer de-
nounces as an infamous lie the state
ment published in this country that
the volunteers in the Philippines were
unwilling to fight, and concludes by
saying:
"The men here are willing and anx-
ious to do anything they are told to do,
no matter what it is. Our generals
and officers are as good to the men as
they possibly can be, and the men all
love them, and would go to HI for
them, if necessary"
The words of the commanding gen.
eral and of this humble Tennessee
soldier are fully borne out by the con-
duct of the volunteers in action. They
have done and are doing service which
would be impossible to discontented
and half-heartened men, 1t is quite
evident that they don't stop to split
any hairs of argument as to the con
hict between their country and the half
savage Tagals. They fail altogether
to recognize the inherent right" oi
Aguinaldo's shirt-tail heroes to shoo'
them down from ambush or stab then
in the dark, without tasting American
lead and steel. They leave all that sor
of thing to degenerate stay-at- homes
They don't get their ideas Of patriotism
from the Boston Pervert and the col
onel who quit. Fred Funston is thei
style.
They have red blood in their veins
those husky lads from Tennessee an'
the great west. The flag is enough TO

A meeting of the Filipino Congress
is said to have been held at San Isidro.
Though quorum was lacking, reports
say strong desire for peace was ex-
pressed. Eight thousand rebel rife
men have intrenched themselves on
three sides of Bacolor, and Gen. Luna
is massing his army in trainloads be-
fore the American lines. The inhabi-
tants of Negros ask for a provisional
government on the lines of the Califor-
MIA constitution, but uniform govern
ment will probably be established fol
the archipelago.

Is the day coming when we shall cook
our own food at our own tables; when
all we shall have to do is to attach q
wire to the electric fixture overhead,
on neat slab, heated by electricity,
cook eggs, steaks, and cakes exactly to
suit our own tastes, to say nothing of
the enjoyment of having everything
fresh and steaming hot? Miss Anna
Leach's aricle in the May Cosmopolitan
on "Science in the Model Kitchen" is
interesting to housekeepers from O
hundred points of view, as well as in its
suggestion of the electric cooking oi
