RUN TWO SECTIONS

Eastern Train Two Hours Lats, But
 Another is 1Eads Up-other Railroad News and Gossip.

Something altogether unprecedentec occurred at the Union Station last nteat For the first time in the history or tne proverbial oldest inhahitant, two sections of the Western train frpm Atlanta csme in.
 It was like this: The Western train. g. due here at s:20 p. m.. was marked three hours late last night. Instead oi waiting on the Southern connection. as has been the invariable rule in the pest the Western people made up a train m Atlanta as the first section Of train 5i. left at 4:2O p. m.--on time-and arrived in Montgomery at 9:2o p. m.-on time.
 The Louisville and Nashville sent the first section of their train. No. 3. to New Orleans on time. and the second section went south on the arrival of the second section of the Western, at 1:20 this morn- ing.
 It Is said that the cause of the two sec tions of the Western train being run last night was the result of numerous and sundry criticisms that have appeared in several newspapers in the last few days. It is understood that from now on when the Southern train Is over two hours late. the Western will run the first sec ton of their g out of Atlanta on time.

 The Atlanta Constitution says:
 "As the time for the reunion of Confed- crate Veterans at Dallas q avs hear the competition for the business is taking on very strenuous nature and If present indications count for anything, there will doubtless be some display of ill-feelins before the business is divided up.
 Already the charge has been made tha. some of the roads have not been strictly truthful in their advertising and naturally recrimination has followed. In reply tc a circular issued by one road to the effect that it was the first road to make an ap. propriation to the reunion, the amount being $500. the Texas and Pacific has got ten out a folder showing correspoudence

Russian Government is Suppressing
 News of Death.

New York, March "A lawyer of this city made public portion of a letter received from a relative in Russia, ir which the statement is made that Count Tolstoi, the great Russian novelist and anthropist. died on February 15 al Yalti, in the Crimea.
 The lawyer does not want his name published for fear the source of the let, ter could be traced and trouble made for the relative by the Russian govern, ment. The portion of the letter rsferrins to Tolstoi is as follows:
 f'Tolstoi is dead. The papers writ nothing about it, but we know 1t indi rectly here. Great tumults are expected in Russia and there are rumors of z revolution"
 The lawyer says the relative was wei acquainted with Tolstoi and had assisted him in his colony work. In this connection he came near being exiled to Siberia by the government. .,.
 The papers are concealing the death said the lawyer. and by reason of tht the country about it. I am wonderins how the letter got through unless it wal that the portion referring to Tolstoi es caped notice"

Hard Colds

Hard colds nearly always lead to something serious. They run into chronic bron- chitis, pneumonia, consump- tion. Doctors know this. That's why they so generally approve of Ayers Cherry Pectoral. They tell us they cannot prescribe anything that cures coughs so quickly.

strike of garment workers Of this city
commenced here yesterday when none
of the Hebrew shops, of which there
are some fifteen. was opened. This
morning every shop in the city was
closed, and no work whatever IS being
done, and nearly 1000 employees are
idle. There is no indication Of violence
unless the manufacturers attempt to
slip garments to New York or ST.
Louis to be made. Committees of the
strikers have been appointed to pre-
vent this. The strikers demand a nine
hour day at the same pay as has been
given for ten hours, which the manu-
facturers say would have been granted

months ago, before prices had been
made to the trade on goot ordered.
