Came here tonight in a terrible plight,
There's plenty of maidens in Warner l see
But still he comes here and keeps winking al
Wlnking at me, winking at me, [me.
Oh, how can l sing when he's winking at me

Bushy black head, that's enough said.
Handsome enough won't you girlies agree,
But why does he come and keep winking at
Winking at me, winking at me, [me.

New Era Is lnaugurated in Travel.
ing Between Chicago and
New York City.
EIGHTEEN HOURS is DEAD EASY
Miles Run Or at the Extraordinary
Speed of a Little More Than
Twenty. Eight Seconds.

Chicago, June 13.-Railways be-
tween here and the east have the fast
time Juror. Following the success OF
the Pennsylvania road in doing the
distance between Chicago and New
YOrk-9O5 miles-in eighteen hours the
Lake Shore announces that beginning
next Sunday that road will put on an
eighteen-hOur train with which will go
all sorts of conveniences for the trav-
eler. The Pennsylvania trains from
here to New York and New York to
this city covered themselves with
glory, each arriving at its destination
three minutes ahead Of the scheduled
time.
All Train Records Broken.
The one coming this way especially
distinguished itself, but both broke all
the train records of the world. On the
flyer bound for the seacoast the
watches told of stretches of country
covered at the then unparalleled rate
Of a mile of distance in thirty-three
seconds, and announcement was made
Of the smashing of one worlds speed
record. On the flyer bound for the
Lake City three consecutive miles be-
tween Crestline and Fort Wayne were
covered in eighty-five seconds, a rate
for each mile of twenty-eight and one
third seconds.
Y$
A speed including stops of little
over fifty miles an hour is all that is
necessary to make the distance in
eighteen hours, and the unskilled in
railway matters is likely to. wonder
how it was that with such tremendous
speed the trains were only three
minutes ahead of time at each end of
the run. The story of the run to New
York gives the men in charge the be-
lief that the distance can be done in
fifteen hours and there seems no rea-
son why they should not be correct in
their belief.
Some Fearfully Fast Miles.
A New York dispatch tells of mile
after mile being run in 33, 35, 80 and
Al seconds each, and even in crossing
the Alleghenies at night, although the
train was heavy, as high speed as
eighty-three miles an hour was made
in many sections west Of Pittsburg
and east of Alliance, and rates Of
eighty-three, eighty-five and ninety.
three miles an hour were kept up for
considerable distances. For short dis
tances some of the big Atlantic en-.
gines made averages west of Altoona
of 104 miles an hour, and this was
done without discomfort to any one on
the train or in the engine.
Summary Of the Run East.
AS to the train going east the cor
rected time tables of the run will not
be made up for day or two, but il
may be stated with fair accuracy that
it went to New York, 905 miles, IN l..
or minutes, three minutes less than
the schedule time, including all stops
and delays of every kind. Taking out
the stops, unavoidable delays and the
like it made the run in just 1000 min.
