MEET
Of SCHOOLS
APRIL s
High School Juniors and Public
School Team Will Contest
for Supremacy.

Two teams of young athletes, one
representing the High School and the
other Public School No. 2, are practlc-
ing hard for their field meet to come
OFF Friday afternoon, April s.
This meet is to be held among the
younger boys only, the regular an
nual meet of the Classical and High
Schools having been declared off for
this year. The cup which was given
by the citizens Of Pensacola to be COM
psted for by these two schools cannot,
of course, be given as a trophy to
either public school, but handsome
banner will be presented to the win
ming captain.
Both teams have been practiclng
hard, Capt. BarrOw's of the High
School at Kufrlan's Park and Capt.
Pines of School No. at the grounds
of their school All the candidates
for places on these teams have shown
remarkable zeal in their constant and
unfagging work for representative
honors.
Captain Barrow's team was crippled
considerably by the loss of the Byrd
brothers, Olden and Elmer, who were
among the strongest candidates for
positions. However, the team seems
to feel confident that they will win, al
though they know they are up against
some good material.
The No. 2 boys average younger
and depend on lightness to win the
short sprint races, while in jumping
their representative is considered
among the best of his size and weight.
The captains have tried their men
in different events and after consid-
eralble trouble in trying not to give
one man too much to do Captain Bar
row has placed the High School boys
in the following events:
Running High Jump-Stout, FELL,
Heinberg.
Standing High Jump-Borras, Fell.
Running Broad Jump-Ainsworth,
Stout, Zelius.
Standing Broad Jump-Borras, Helm
berg.
5O-yd Dash-BarrOw AInsworth,
1OO-yd Dash-Barrow, Heinberg,
Coleman. '4S
220-yd Run-Zelius, Borras, Stout.
44O-yd Run-Barrow, Borras, Fair
child.
Relay Racs-Heinberg, Stout, Oh
sen, Zelius. &
The positions of the men in Capt
Pines team have not been given but
they will be known tomorrow. Suf-
fee it to say, however that the H. S.
boys have hard proposition on hand
with such men as Gould, Meyers,
Pine and other first-class men who
may be depended upon to carry of
some of the points.
The official names will be given to-
morrow. Cars will be provided to
handle the crowd.

the Acme of Comfort.
Current advertisements describingthe
luxurious appointments offered the
modern traveller on sea and land give
point to the contrast afforded by the
facilities of the middle of the last cen
tury, which were then regarded as the
height to which the passengers had a
right to aspire. The issue of the Penn
sylvania Railroad and Mining Register
Of June %, 1856, said:
''The Buffalo Car company lately
shipped a lot of cars for the Illinois
Central railroad which are far ahead
of anything in their line yet seen in
the west. One Of them contained six
statcTooms, each room having two
seats with cushioned backs, long
enough for a person to lie upon. The
backs of the seats are hung with
hinges at the upper edge, so that they
may be turned up at pleasure, thus
forming two single berths, one over the
other, where persons may sleep with
all the comfort imaginable. In one end

On the opposite side of the car from
the staterooms is a row Of seats with
revolving backs, similar to BARRIERS
chairs, so arranged that the occupant
may sit straight or recline in an easy
attitude at pleasure. The other five
cars have each two or three similar
staterooms."
The birth Of the Pullman car came
little later. In the spring of 1858
