are Of the opinion that a ''lirnitod
coast" train, leaving New Or
leans about 5 p. M, or $3.50 D. m,
Would tend to increase the popu-
lation of the Gulf Coast, hetween
Bay 81. Louis and Ocean Springs
inclusive, and that the earnings of
your road would therefore be con
slderabl, increased by the extra
volume Of passenger traffic which
would result thcrefrom.
New Orleans business men
who wish to travel by the A p. m.
train have to neglect their busi-
ness TO a certain extcnt in order
TO take same, as the 7:45 D. m,
train u much too late for daily
travelling.
we nelleve that were the pas
sengcr facilities to the Gulf Coast
more convenient as regard the
time of departure from New. Or

The organization and equipment OF an
up-io date minstrel company is a test OF
no mean proportion, and when exceed
ing care is taken by men of long expert
ence it arises to almost a herculean task
to properly arrange the program so that
it will meet with the public's approval.
Messrs. Primrose & Dockstader, aided by
their manager, Jas. H. Decker, spent the
best part of four months in peTiecting
plans for their big American minslrels,
and with all their combined knowledge,
1t goes without saying that the enter
tainment from first part to finale will be
OF the highest order. The costumes and
scenic equipment is said to surpass all OF
their previous efforts, and the European
novelties to be presented in the olio are
declared succession of Joyous surprises
of an unexcelled character. Especial at
tention has been paid to the vocal de-
partment, and the selection of the vari-
Gus artists was done only after very care
full consideration. As a whole, it can be
stated in all truthiulness that the present
effort is the very best that their united
energies are capable of celebrating,
This large and superior organization will
be seen all this week at Ford's, Bal
timore, with matinees on Wednes-
day and Saturday.

Final arrangements have been made
that will put the State Christian Endeav-
or Convention in Baltimore this year far
ahead of its predecessors. The immense
Music Hall has been engaged for the
night sessions, and an excellent chorus
of six hundred voices is in training now
to furnish the music. Choruses of this
kind are prominent features at the great
international conventions, but Maryland
never before has tried one. Director
Harris, known to all Endeavorers in
Maryland, will have full charge of this
feature, and it is expected that much
extra enthusiasm will be created by the
old favorites and newer hymns and an
thems by such large organization. AL
though the convention is to be held No
vember 18th, 18th and I4th, this chorus
is to give public concert on the even
ing OF November 9TH, at Music Hall. in
order to defray the extra convention ex
penses. Baltimore is preparing for a
great time, and is expecting many dele
gates from this county. 1t is pleasant to
note that these county delegates will be
provided board free OF cost. During the
day lunch will be served at the conven-
ton church so that all the delegates have
to do so is attend the convention all
things else are provided.

she was entertained that an enterprising
fish merchant had already registered a
trademark for Jenny Lind herrings. A
young girl at the table promptly said:
THAT is a selfish idea. Every trade
mark is selfish idea. Certainly there
was never before such a trademark inn
