TOURIST CARS SAVE MONEY.
Only So for a berth to California.

only So for a berth to California
If we could show you a way to 60 to California
that would be interesting and comfortable, and save
you number of dollars, you would undoubtedly be
interested.
Here it is ! Travel in one Of the tourist sleepers
that now run between St. Paul, Minneapolis and Los
Angeles via the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul and
Santa Fe Railways
Tourist cars are great money savers There are
many other good points about them, but they are
enphaticaly money savers
A double berth in standard sleeper between
St. Paul and Los Angeles costs $14.50. A double
berth in tourist sleeper between the same points
costs but Sc. There's $3.50 one way, or $17 on
sleeping car fare for the round trip saved to your
pocket-book.
Second-class tickets, sold at less rates than first
class tickets are honored in tourist seepers. For
example, the frstclass rate, Twin Cities to Cali
forna, $57 90 while the secondclass rate is only
$47.9o. Altogether the tourist car saves you $3.50
one way-enough to pay your expenses in California
for two weeks. Please remember, however, tourist
sleepers are patronized by first-class people.
The old idea that tourist sleepers were similar
to emigrant cars and used largely by coonists has
been abandoned by experienced travellers OF today.
They know that tourist sleepers are perfectly COM
Portable, that the linen and mattresses are of high
quality and that the service is altogether satisfactory
These tourist cars are similar to the palace Sleep
ing cars, with the exception that their furnishings
are not SO luxurious. They are clean and light and
airy. Overcrowdng of the is condition that's
absolutely avoided The berths sold at less than
half the price of the palace sleepers The seats are
upholstered in rattan, and at night the berths hung
with heavy curtains. An experienced porter ac-
companies each tourist car. He not only keeps the
car clean, comfortably warm, and properly venti-
lated but is ready to assist passengers and to attend
to their wants day and night Tourist cars popu-
lar with tourists and large parties we'll as with
others who do not to pay for luxuries that
obtained by riding in palace sleeper.
The idea that an inferior class of people pat
ronizes the tourist sleepers is On these trips
only the best class of travellers are encountered

finely shaped cirrostratus. In a few
seconds it was across the zenith, dis

edgings at intervals Of faint purple and

GENERAL JOHN c. BLAcK.
There were many dead soldiers left at
the roadside. The column forged ahead,
its legs weary, its eyes wild from loss
Of sleep, and its life all gone save the
life which comes under extraordinary
excitement. Black held the center OF
the line. The commander sent word
for him to march straight ahead, TO
take the top Of the hill and to hold II.
This sent his regiment into the very
front-into the middle Of the enemy's
range Of guns. There was an Indiana
regiment on one side, Colonel MeNul-
ta's was on the other. 1t was q most
perilous sally one Of the most fright
fully murderous undertakings of all the
wqr
The line moved up the hill. It was
met at the brow by a force which out
numbered it five to one The Confeder-
ates came from the woods in swarms,
beating down upon the Union forces
with fearful effect. The Indiana men
held their ground until the Confeder-
ates came so close that the explosion
Of the rifles spattered the uniforms
with powder stains. The Confederate
commander sent his host pellmell into
the lone regiment at Blacks left. The
men in gray began to beat the Indian
ians down the hillside. 1t was greater
odds than the best of bravery could
meet, and the Union soldiers retreated,
Colonel Black had the command next
I in the line Of battle. He was on the
crest Of the hill with his regiment The
rebels came at him as they came at
the Indiana men They might as well
have come against stone wall. The
commander, with his long hair in the
wind and his voice ringing clear and
shrill above the din, held his men to
their work. He had few words. They
were to the point, and they simply nd
vised the men to stick close to the
ground and shoot mighty low He
alone was the target for the thousands
on the other side. One BAH brought
his horse to its knees. The men brought
/ him another. Another ball tore through
his left arm. 1t fell limp, He picked
| it no with his other hand and hung II

Their highest Honor Upon Him.
General BIaclS In civil Life.
General John G. Black, who has been
chosen commander Of the Grand Army
of the Republic, was a student in Wa
bash Gnd.) college when the civil war
began and upon the opening of hostlli-
ties enlisted as a private IN the Mont
gomery guards. which was mustered
into service as Company / Of the Elev-
enth Indiana zouayes. commanded by
Lew Wallace. This regiment served
three months in West Virginia and the
Shenandoah valley Returning home
at the expiration OF the term Of his
enlistment, he recruited a company for
the Thirty Illinois regiment of
volunteers, Of which regiment he be-
came major. lie was promoted for dis
tirguished services successfully to lieu
tenant colonel, colonel and brevet brig
adler general Of United States voIun-
teers. General Black was twice seri-
ously wounded and has almost wholly
lest the use Of his left arm.
General Blacks most conspicuous
service was at Prairie Grove in 1862,
when with Colonel McNulta, in COM
mand Of an Illinois regiment, he was
commanded to take a strong position
held by the enemy. Black was then a
captain, but In the absence Of the colo
mel he was in command Of the regi-
ment. Both he and McNulta knew that
the order meant business. They got
their men into shape and started on the
perilous march into the face Of death
says a veteran who was ID the engage
ment.
They began to see the signs Of the
enemy at the end OF the third day.
They were stin forty miles from the
scene Of the probable fight The men
were spurred on to exertions which
seem almost superhuman. They plod-
ded for twenty-four straight hours.
with only two hours for sleep on the
open ground. Their only food was cot
fee. They walked thirty miles at the
last stretch, part Of the time ut double
quick The enemy met them on the
way, and at daylight two miles from
Prairie Grove, the first firing started
