Lose a Pioneer Family.

This week Montpelier loses one
of its old and highly respected fan ;
lilies in the persons of Judge q. G..
Hitler and family, who leave Lc-
morrow for Union, Oregon, to make
their future home. Mr.. and Mrs.
Hitler have been residents of Mont
pelier since 1870. and their onl,
object in seeking a new home al
their late age in life Is in the hope
of benefitting Mr.. Hillier's health,
which has been poorly for some
time, due largely 10 the high alti.
tude and severe winters here.
Mr.. nIllier has held several posi-.
tions Of trust during his long res.
idence here, having served one term
~ q member of the lower house OF
the legislature from Bear Lake
county, was probate Judge of the
county one term, and aas served ~
justice Of the peace in Montpelier
precinct and police Judge Of the
city.
Monday evening a farewell party
was rendered Mr.. Hitler and family
at the l.. D. S. church. Many ol
their old friends were present and
after listening TO a short program,
the remainder of the evening wa.
spent by the old timers in relating
their early day experiences IN Tbs
valley, and pleasant social time,
generally. All Joined in The hop.
that Mr.. Hitler and his wife wouId
be spared to enjoy many years o.
health and happiness in their nea
home.

From the Omaha shops of the
Union Pacific. the FIRST of an entire
ly new type of all-steel freproof
passenger coach went INTO service
last week. Its round roof and ends.
side doors and circular windows
give the car an appearance entirely
unlike that of the familiar wooden
coach. In the total weight of ss,-
500 pounds, there are only 200
pounds of wood. The cars weight
of ! l,l45 pounds per passenger fig
ures out over 200 pounds per pas
senger less than any steel coach OF
modern type built.
In place Of the usual square win
dows, the new Union Pacific coach
has 24-inch circular windows in
ALUMINIUM sash that with their rub.
Der castings form an absolutely
weather and dust proof window.
By reducing the thlckaess of the
walls an increase OF seven inches in
the with of the aisle has been made
possible. A constant supply OF
fresh air is obtained from intakes
located at either end of the car.
Tie air Is led through boxts under
meath the car containing double sets
of dust screens which thoroughly
clean the air before any of it is ad-
mitted 10 the car.
The car represents the latest step
toward solYing the problem Of how
to construct passenger coach that
viii not burn, that is collision proof
and one that will have these ad-
vantages while being more comfort
able for the passenger and not 10
heavy for economical operation.

ABOUT TRAIN CONNECTIONS.
U. 5. Supreme Court Holds That
Railroad Cos. Must Make ReaS-
enable Connections at juno
tion Points.

We are in receipt of letter from
Salt Lake gentleman, who has had
occasion to visit Montpelier several
times lately, in which be says: sd
appreciate the articles IN the Exam
iner regarding the train connections
made NJ McCammon, and | sincerely
sympathIze with any one who is
compelled to make the trip"
The gentleman also called our
attention to the fact that the supreme
court of the United States recently
rendered decision in case taken
before it from North Carolina, In
which the Atlantic Coast Line road
was ordered to restore at Salem a
connection which is formerly mad.
with the Southern Railway company
Case and Comment, an eastern Law
yers' journal, in commenting upon
the decision of the court, says:

by this decision that the state has power

Nov II one road can be compelled

of every town on its line. but the
territory affected by the abomlnable

the entire system and will act as a
committee to pass upon the merits
of each division, district and section
on the lines. Cief Engineer Ashton
will accompany the party. If his
health will permit, and Resident
Engineer Thos. S. Fitzgerald of the
Southern Pacific, will be in Mr..
Manson's party.
The train will be special and
will consist of, in addition TO the

sleeper for the crew, and attaches,
and an open observation car special,
ly constructed, that will be placed
in front OF the locomotive. Every
section foreman will be ridden over
his section; every roadmasteI will
be in charge until he gets to the
next district, and the division en-.
gineers and supervisors of bridges
and buildings will be picked up,
wherever they are met.
