1.-THE ONLY Way

Fittingly and permanently commemo-
rating the vast importance of the Louisl'
ma Purchase Exposition, the year 1891
will witness the completion Of the new
line of Tile Chicago K Alton Railway be-
tween Kansas City and st. Louis. Ope-
ration over this new road, which will be
the short line between Kansas City and
St. Louis, will commence about June 10,
l9O4-onlv a short time later than the
opening OF the Worlds Fair.
In time of completion, and also IN
other wavs. the Atoms new line is typi-
cal of the Fair. The st. Louis Expo
-ition will show the highest examples OF
every product OF all kinds in the world,
as win The Chicago & Alton new line
show the highest standard to which the
worlds railways can be brought. As th'
Worlds fair will illustrate the processe'
which make American goods preferree
in the markets OF the world, so the
Chicago K Alton will illustrate in al
details-construction, equipment and op
eration--the accepted standards, whicl
serve as models for the worlds commol
carriers.
The trains run via the Atoms ne'
Kansas City-st. Louis line will proyid
additional and very much faster serNic
to and from the Worlds fair city, an
oar readers will do well to make sur
that their tickets read between hansa

Lafayette Plays New Iberia.

The Lafayette team played
New iberia Sunday on their
home grounds. and the game
was strictly professional up to
the eighth inning. The playing
was fine, could not be improved
upon. Only one run was made
and that by Lafayette. But
when the eighth inning set in.
things took a different complex
ion, for Lafayette lost their grip
somehow and began to drop
errors which New Iberia picked
up promptly and adrOitly, piling
up runs. SO that when the game
ended Lafayette walked off with
one little run while New Iberia
stepped high with seven. Lafa-
yette didn't feel so bad, how
ever. Everybody has "Otf' days.
and next Sunday when Franklin
