Run AUTO ON RAILS.
Charles j. Glidden, Unique Traveller,
to Pass Through Topeka.

VIII railway tracks be utilized as
race courses for owners of automobiles
who desire to develop fast speed in
travelling from place to place in the
future?
Experiments will soon be made on
the Rock Island railroad to test the
feasibility CT running automobiles over
the tracks of the railroads, operated
and run under special orders from the
dfspatcher's department in the same
mi as special trains are handled.
Charles J. Glidden, a Boston million
aire, who has conceived the idea of
girdling the globe in an automobile
driven over the tracks Of railroads
wherever railroads exist, will pass
through Topeka within a short time on
a trip which will take him from Bos-
ton through b United States into the
republic of Mexico. to the City of Mex
leo, where he will ship the car to
Egypt to continue the trip aroun the
continent.
The trip from Boston to the City of
Mexico viii aggregate 6,445 miles.
The Glidden party is now travelling
from Boston via Washington to Chi
cagO where steel flanges viii replace
the rubber tired wheels of the auto
and the trip win be continued over the
the lines of the Rock Island through
Kansas City and Topeka, to Fort
Worth, Texas, where the car will be
transferred to the International &
Great Northern railway. The party
will travel thence to Laredo and from
that place will go over the Mexican
Central lines to the City of Mexico.
A conductor will travel with the
Glidden party over every division Of
the road. He VIII receive the train
orders from the train dispatcher and
viii govern the movement of the auto
mobile over the lines of the railroad
just the same as though he were hand
ling d special train. running under spe-
cial orders. He viii also act in the
capacity of pilot.
1t is rather al expensive form Of
travel, but Mr.. Glidden doesn't care
for expenses, and this form Of amuse-
ment is a sort of hobby with him.
The time may come when the rail-
way tracks of all the transcontinental
lines will be dotted with automobile
parties moving to and fro on the rail-
way lines.
