for the Splendid Equipment.

The first OF the North Coast Limited"
trains inaugurated from St Paul TO Sc
afue over the Northern Pacific on SUM-
day morning reached Seattle at S:45 last
night 1t is probably the most elaborate
ana extensively equipped train that has
ever arrived in this city, not excepting
several private trains containing capital
lists and railway men which have from time
TO time come to Seattle.
General Passenger Agent Charles A Fee
and a party Of friends accompanied the
train on its initial trip. At every station
where stops were made large crowds gath
cred to witness the incoming and depar-
ture of the train and Mr. Fee says II made
MS heart glad to see the genuine appre-
citation shown of the efforts of the road
to put on and maintain the best trauecon-
tnental train ever given to the pubic.
During the day General Agent l. A. Ma
deau sent out invitations to a large num-
Der OF prominent citizens to be present at
the depot on the arrival of the tram and
examine 1t. In response a large crowd
gathered and during the forty minutes be-
for II resumed It's Journey to Portland
many took advantage of Mr. Nadeau's
invitation to examine the train. There
were many EXPLANATIONS of surprise at the
elegance OF each car and the verdict was
unanimous that II was the finest passen-
ger equipment that has ever entered the
yards This same train will arrive here

Among the company's officers from out
side points who met the train here last
night was A. d. Charlton assistant general
passenger agent at Portland. He joined
Mr. Fee here and accompanied him to
Portland
Mr.. Fee was probably the happiest man
In the city. He sat In the observation car
with party Of friends and received many
CONGRATULATIONS
Comparing this train with our summer
service OF former years" he said II don't
think | am wrong when say 1t Is 30 per

The entire Journey has heen a series of
ovatfons. At Fargo n. D.. and Moore

to see the train. We could not let all 20

tain 1t every day We have received MANY
compliments from passengers aboard, and
