Names for Fast Trains.


The recent competition inaugurated by
the general passenger agent of Western
railroad, offering a substantial price for
the best names for a new fast train be-
tween Chicgo and st. Paul and Minneap-
oils, has Just been decided by the division
of the prize among five persons who sug-
gested the name Of the North Star Linn
ited," says The st. Louis Republic.
The adoption OF this name may become
the subject Of q case in the courts, an
other line between. the same cities claim
ing that 1t has used similar name for
some years.
This calls attention to the value OF such
a name to a railroad for advertising pur-
poses, and the trouble to which its officers

their fastest and most luxurious ex-
presses.
These efforts result in some very queer
names and some very good ones. Every
one has heard of the Lake Shore Limited,
the Empire State Express and the Twen-
tieth Century Limited, the latest addition
to the New York Central's fast trains
The Pennsylvania Railroad gives simple
names its fastest trains.
The Pennsylvania Limited and the
PENNSYLVANIA Special are the titles by
which the two finest trains on that road
simply named after the city to which
they run.
one Of the most picturesque names is
that OF the Sunset Limited. which dashes
Pcnnsylyania Railroad gives simple
California, by way Of the Southern Pa
cifc line.
The overland Limited is a name which
represents well the IDEAS Of the men at
the head Of the Union Pacific Road. while
the North Coast Limited Is a sonorous
title for the Northern Pacific fast train to
the North Pacific coast cities.
The Rock Island has chosen a high
sounding title for its new train to Callfor-
mia. after which It Is called. the Golden
Gate Limited.
The other Western roads have generally
called their trains after their own names.
as for instance. the Alton Limited Of the
Chicago and Alton: while others again are
called after the names Of cities or States,
as the Colorado Special. the Denver Ex-
press.
The Twin City Limited is named after

runs TO ST. Louis.

ARRESTED ON TRAIN.
Adam Scott, Accused Of Assault, is
Taken Into Custody.

4&2SA 4AAS0 0A1SoALs
Columbus, Ga, Jan. S.-(Special. J.
Tuesday afternoon Sheriff Roberts receiv-
ed q telegram from Sheriff Burgin Of
Birmingham, asking him to meet the
night train from Birmingham and arrest
Adam Scott, a negro wanted on s charge
of criminal assault
The telegram described Scott as a
heavy set yellow negro with black
mustache, nose badly mashed, and asked
the sheriff to wire Birmingham imme-
diate;y upon his arrest.
Shortly before the hour for the ar
rival Of the train at $50 p. m. Tuesday
night Sheriff Roberts called up Chief
Reynolds and gave him the informa-
ton contained in the telegram from
Birmingham. Chief Reynolds accom-
panied by officers Tom Moore and L. L..
Lawson, boarded the train when 1t
slackened up at the riveE bridge. and at
once made a rush for the second class
car. The officers spotted Scott, and
bounced down upon him before the negro
had a chance to resist Scott was taken
entirely by surprise. and was conveyed
to the lock up as soon as the train reach
ed the Urion depot.
A message was sent to Birmingham
with news of the arrest. and today Depu-
ty Sheriff W. !. Love arrived in the
city after his man. He left with him
for Birmingham this aftNrnoon. News
Of the arrest Of Scott was NA2t a secret
until the Alabama officer arrived today
and fully Identified the criminal.
A few days aR1 eie yen miles from
Birmingham Scott assaulted d negro girl
at the point OF a pistol. He escaped.
but in some way Sheriff Burgin learned
that he had boarded a train for Column
bus Tuesday. 1t was on this Informal
ton that he sent the telegram which
lead to the arrest Of Scott. Deputy
Love says scott's victim is in a critical
condition.

chosen perhaps as Is that Of the Congress
sional Limited. running to Tile same city
over the Pennsylvania.
Between the capital and Boston runs
the Colonial Express. while between New
York and Boston runs, among others. the
Bay State Limited. There are several
continental limited trains. one OF them
going over the West Shore to Chicago.
The Lackawanna Limited Is q sample Of
the Lackawanna's style OF calling things
by their names.
Among the queerest names given to
trains are, perhaps, that OF the Ghost Ex-
press. which formerly ran between New
York and Boston. leaving at = might Its
cars being painted absolutely white. and
the r. r. ". which familiar letters the
Chesapeake and Ohio explained as mean

Another picturesque name with tlnge
OF romance IL the Rip Van Wrinkle Flyer.
running ever the West Shore In summer
to the Catskills. Whenever there Is an ex-
position anyhere there are sure to be
several exposition flyers.
The latest OF these is on the Big Four,
running from Cincinnati to st .Louns.
There Is perhaps no railroad man in
whose composition sentiment enters as
little as into that OF ]. ]. HILL Perhaps
for that reason he has never paid much
attention to names for his trains.
His rivals, however. nicknamed his first
through trains from st. Paul to the Pa
cifc coast the High Grass Limited" be-
cause 1t ran through so much uninhab-
tied prairie.
Today the train is palace on wheels,
and frequently carries thirteen cars. with
total length Of nearly one-fifth of a
mile.
OF foreign trains probably the most ia
nous are the Flying Scotchman and the
Orient Express. the latter from Paris to
Constantinople. having even been made

C. Y. B0CACKI,

LAND AVENUE CAR.
Water Wright, an Office Boy. Arrest
cd and in County Jail Tells
Of Highway Robbery
Monday Night.

Walter Wright alias Crook, a negro
boy arrested at 10 o'clock yesterday
morning by Detectives Paul Rapport and
Robert Lee, confessed to being one of the
three negroes who held up Highland
Avenue car of the Montgomery Street
Railway Monday evening at s:15 o'clock
and robbed the conductor and motorman
of about SIS.
The car was In charge of Conductor
Speigners and Motorman Talley. At the
extreme end Of Highland Avenue and In
dark place the negroes hailed the car
which was stopped. Pistols were pre-
scented at the car men and the negroes
went through their pockets. From the
conductor s2.S5 of the company's money
was taken. The negroes robbed the
motorman Of about SO of his own money.
The robbers then fed Into the darkness.
At the instance OF the Street Railway
Company special detectives were employ
ed in the case and they succeeded in
capturing one of the robbers and secur-
ing Information which, they believe, will
lead to the arrest of the others.
Detectives Rapport and Lee yesterday
morning arrested Walter Wright alas
Crook on Dexter Avenue. He is about
10 years old and has been employed as
an office boy by a dentist on the avenue.
The negro was temporarily locked up

swore out a warrant before Justice B. C.
Tarver charging him with highway rob-
berry and he was transferred to the
Montgomery County jail
Under the statutes Of Alabama the
crime of highway robbery may be punish
ed by death.
When the negro boy was informed by
the detectives that they knew OF the
part he played in the robbery he con-
fessed his guilt and told the story of the
robbery giving the names OF the two
negroes who assisted him. These negroes
will be arrested IL they can be located.
Wright said the hold up was planned
by the two negroes who went to his
home and persuaded him to join them
He said while one of the. negroes he'd
a pistol pointed at the niotorman and
conductor the other negro and himself
went through the pockets OF the car
men. He declares that he did not get
any money and says the robbers had a
over division of the spoils
Wright will have preliminary hearing
before Justice Tarver. The date Of the
hearing has not been fixed.

the representatives of the Atlantic Coast

tract with the Coast Line authorities. and
some days ago there was meeting for

friction, was In regard to a request that
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
made for. a contract with the Plant Sys-

tenn division received notice yesterday
that their contract had been granted by
the Coast Line over the entire system.
The salaries of the foremen nave been

Virgin and all the mrtyrs. 1t was at
first celebrated May LIST, but was after
wards changed to November 1st, which
throws All HALLOWEEN on the night
OF October 31st. The turning OF things
upside down on that night is probably
survival OF the Pagan customs. Stud
ents in folk lore connect it with the
Pagan observance of tWalpurgis
Night, which was an assemblage Of
witches and evil spirits on the summit
of the Broken, IN the Hartz Mountains
on the eve Of May 1st, which was the
original all saints day. 1t was from
this assemblage of witches and evil
spirits that the famous Broken scene
in "Faust" is obtained. The transfer
OF the festival to November lst is sup

stitions and tearing up of things" of
the night before.
