New Standard Dining Cars For worlds
Fair Traffic Via. Southern Railway.

On account of the popularity and great
ly increased patronage OF the Southern's
st. Louis Special, Grains % < 24) which
leaves st. Louis daily at IL :00 A. NJ. for
Louisville, Lexington and all parts OF the
great south- east, also for East Tennessee
and Western North Carolina, The South
ern has found it necessary TO retire the
present style of dining cars and put into
service magnificent new standard din
ing cars, with full complement OF cooks,
walters, etc, which will provide service
superior to any railroad in this section
of the country.
The arrival time of this splendid train
Into st. Louis is 4 :56 p. M. daily, and
lbrines connection from all the territory
described above.
This is very important news especial
| ly to all Of the people OF Indiana, llli-
nois and Kentucky who live in the por-
ltion of these states penetrated by the
Southern Railway. All meals enroute
Through those states are served on these
n aims. The spacious and comfortable
dining cars will attract still greater pa
tronage for this road. :,
These trains stop only at the principal
Ipoints between st. Louis and Louisville
land Lexington, and have been conspi-
Iciously popular with all first class travel
lers 10 the Worlds Fair. The most sa-
|tisfactory way to appreciate the advan-
,ltages of these trains is to compare with
1.-THE appointments OF cars on any other
railroad operating into st. Louis.
!, The exposition is now complete in
! every detail, presenting picture too
llbeautiful to describe. The generality Of
I, ,lpeople from far distances who have de-
llayed their visits for this completion,
have now begun TO move; 30 that the
touch which the Southern Rail-
,way has put upon it's already superb
o train service is very timely and will
!. doubtless be sincerely appreciated by the
I,public generally.
q The Southern is many miles the short
hest road from Lexington and Louisville
y and intermediate points TO st. Louis.

He had his physicians examin
him some days ago and asked then
Ifor the truth and when they toll
him his heart could not last muc
longer he replied: "Well | an

do but wait for the end.
He then laughed and talked wit

as an ideal host, and, next to his in
terest in the greatest show on earth"
enjoyed nothing better than entertain
ing his friends at his house and table.
Among those who visited him most
frequently at 'Lindencroft" or Waldo

sometimes calls himself author OF
prose and worse"
1t is peculiarity of this author
that, with one slight exception, he eats
neither butter nor milk, and none of
the ordinary meats, not for any hy-
gienic or philosophical reason, but
simply because they are distinctly un-
palatable to him. on one occasion
when young lady occupied seat
near Mr.. Benton at MIR. Barnum's
table, the waiter handed the bachelor
author some butter "oh." said Bar
mum to the walters and pointing TO
the lady. "you shouldn't do that, for
he doesn't love any but her"
Mr. Barnum's table, of course, was
always bountifully supplied with a
great variety Of food, and vet, on an
other occasion, when Mr. Benton re-
fused the beef and lamb, and the but
ter. Mr.. Barnum wearily said; "well.
Benton, you seem likely to starve here.

that flies or swims."

morrow" Success.

in the district court OF this county to-
day against Harper & Bros Publish
ing Company OF New York, asking
$4,000 damages for alleged mutilation
of his story, "A Spendthrift," which
was published In Harper's weekly Of
January 20. this year. The story as
published was reduced to about one
half OF It's original length and In the
editing, the plaintiff claims, his work
has been denuded OF its literary feat
ures and otherwise badly mutilated.
Owing to the wide circulation of the
weekly. Mr.. Davis says he considers
that his literary reputation has been
permanently damaged. The complaint
contains over $4,000 words and in
cludes copies OF the story in its orig
inal form and as published. It is said
the contention raised in the suit has
never been passed upon by the courts
