The Pennsylvania huns One
1863 Miles In 456
Minutes
THE RUN WAS A SPEED TEST
Officials Of Road Loave Pittsburs at
1888 in Morning and Roach Union
Station in Chicago Shortly After 8
o,olook-several Stops Made That
Would Be Unnecessary on Regular
Run.

Records for fast time were shat
tered by a Pennsylvania special train
that arrived In the union passenger
station at 8: 90 o'clock yesterday after
noon. The train was made up OF four
coaches carrying several officials OF the
line on the flying run from Pittsburg.
from which point 1t started at 1888 a..
m. Although officials who made the
trip disclaimed any effort to make rec
ord time. it is understood the speed
test was to determine the posslbili-
ties of an even faster .chedule for the
eighteen hour New Chicago fly
err.
From Ptttsburg to Fort Wayne the
distance of 321 miles was covered in
five hours and sixteen minutes (3l6
minutes). In that section between
Crestline and Lima the seventy-two
miles was made in flfty-six minutes;
from Lima to Fort Wayne the fifty
nine miles was covered in forty four
minutes, and the 131 miles between
Crestline and Fort Wayne the fastest
division time was made, the 100 min
utes consumed clipping thirteen min
utes from all previous records.
The train left Fort Wayne at 12:4s
.. M, the 14S miles between that city
and Chicago consuming but 40 min
utes.
The speed OF the train is shown by
q contrast between its record and that
OF the eighteen hour train OF the line,
which makes the distance In 1852 min
utes. The time of the regular was
beaten at every point and the shorten
ing Of the schedule was shown to be
feasible, as several stops. due to var
iuos causes, were made At Nevada
track repairers caused the loss Of two
minutes and other delays caused loss
of time which would not otcur on a
regular schedule. Despite this the 46S
miles between Pittsburg and Chicago
were covered in 456 minutes and the
321 miles from Pittsburg to Fort
Wayne in 318 minutes.-Chicago Trib-

AN EXPLANATION MADE.
Tho Reason for Ebony" Psenicka's BIZ
Tailor Business Shown.

There is a reason why Tony" Psen-
icka has "the tailor trade" of Mar
shalltown, there are several reasons
One of them is that he buys his goods
direct from the manufacturer In the
east, thus there is no middleman's
profit to be added to the price OF a
garment, and he gets the new things"
as soon as they are out, as soon as do
the fashionable tailors In New York
or Washington. Then he knows how
to bu'li a garment and will have none
but the best workner1 in his shop, men
who can and do do the best OF work.
These are a few Of the reasons why
Mr.. Psenicka gets the desirable busi-
ness OF Marshalltown, and vicinity. ana
why you should give him your business
IL you are not already doing So he
received large consignment OF new
things this morning and had hardly
received it till representative OF an
eastern manufacturer called on MIN
and he bought several hundred dollars
worth of goods for delivery as soon as
they are manufactured.
