RAILROAD NEWS.

What Is possibly the handsomest car,
with the exception of few Pullman
private cars, ever operated on a South
ern Railroad, left Montgomery for
Salisbury N. c., yesterday morning.
1t was the new dining car. 400. re-
Gently received by the Western from
the st. Louis Car Works. It went out
yesterday morning on train SS of the
Western at 7:05.
This is the companion train of the
palatial 81, the New York and New Or
LEANS vestibuled limited. [.aS
Train 81 reaches Montgomery at 11:4O
p. m.,. and is hurried by the Louisville
leans; the Pennsylvania Railroad
brings q from New York to Washing
ton and the Southern from Washington
to Atlanta, where the Western takes
it up, bringing 1t to Montgomery and
turning 1t over to the Louisville and
Nashville. Train SO is the northbound
limited. the Louisville and Nashville
bringing it from New Orleans and Mo-
bile and getting ii into Montgomery
at $50 a. m. The Western leaves with
1t for Atlanta at 7:05 a. m. and turns
1t over to the Southern in Atlanta the
Southern taking it to Washington and
turning it over to the Pennsylvania in
that city, the Pennsylvania making the
last link between Washington and
new YORK.
These two trains are the most lux
urious operated ip the South. and to
make the appointments uniform in all
respects the new diner has been added
to the equipment. It will be operated
on trains 38 and 81 of the Western and
Southern between Montgomery and
Salisbury. It was built according to
the plans and specifications Of George
l.. Best, superintendent Of the South
Datlr DINING QArVtcA.
The car is finished in plain, massive
mahogany, polished sufficiently to bring
out the natural beauty of this wood.
but devoid of all the gingerbread work
which characterizes the interior OF the
ordinary car. The tablee are OF the
same material as are the leather-uphoi"
stored chairs. The car is lighted by
the electricity which is generated from
a belt over the axle of the car, and the
fans are operated in the same manner.
The floor is Of hardwood, richly car
peted. The handsome silver, the cut
glass and even the table linen ana
doylies bear the monogram OF the AT
lanta and West Point Railroad. the
punch glasses also bear this mono
gram. :,
The wine and beverage closet Is
splendidly equipped with shelves.
The kitchen appointments OF tne new
car are decidedly novel, every convent
ence being provided, making 1t possl-
BILE to serve a hundred passengers In
two hours. Every drop of water on
the car is altered, and an electric ian
exhausts the air from the kitchen' thus
preventing the odors from reacnins Che
body OF the car.

The very feelings of remorse and

he believed that by trampling on his
