ADDITION TO TRAINS.
THE Meteor" and ''The Worlds Fair
Special TO the Frisco system.

Tbs route OF his Aver Is via our old
lire, through the Ozarks and Indisn Ter
ritory to Sapula, themes over the Red
River Division through the historic Greek
Chickssaw Nations, VIA Dsnison and
sherman, to Fort Worth aud pciuts
southwest thereof; and via Sherman aud
the Houston & Texas Central Rail
road to Dallas and Beyond. The more
neEly-constructed portion Of the roadbed
traverssd has been heavily ballasted with
rock, laid with heavy rail, and In every
wsy brought fully up to the standard Of
other divisions OF the Frisco System.
The train will be made up Of entirely new
equipment throughout, carrying Palace
Day Coaches, Reclining Chair Cars, Pull.
man Drawing Room sleepers and
CAFE OBSERVATION CARS,
In which meals a la carte will be served
at hours convenient to thu traveller.
This service will be under the manage
ment OF Mr.. Fred. Harvey, whose name
should be a sufficient guarantee Of careful
attention to the inner man. just a word
about these cars: The dining room is To-
Gated 10 the forward end. The rear por-
tion of this car is occupied by an obser.
walton saloon, and Is provided with easy
chairs, writing desks and stationery, and
a library service embracing the leading
daily papers and the more popular weekly
ueriodicaIs, The train will be lighted
by electricity, and cooled by electric fans
during the summer months.
TO THE TRAVELLING PUBLIC.
The inauguration OF service OF
this character means quite as much to
its patrons as it does to the railway COM
pany interested. II we were not sanguine
OF the success OF this train, 1t goes with
out saying that it would never have been
established. 1t fills a long-ielt want and
opens a new and fast developing country.
But we feel that these are not the only
factors that may reasonably be expectto
contribute to Its success-the time lie fas
the train is a ''handyD one, as regards
hours Of arrival at and departure trou
termiDI; aud the equipment is ornate, ant
provided with all modern conveniences
These features should, Of themselves
tend to make the train popular.
We also take pleasure in announcing
material improvements in our service viz
Fort Smith and Paris to Texas and TIL
Southwest.

No cBi~ne is ever contemplated without

Not only is wrong doing thus buttressed
with lies, but the lie itself is supported by a
reserve of lies; so that, once begun, like an
