The recent publication concerning
the now obsolete forms of time tables,
used on the railroads years ago, has
led James Gordon, of Trenton, for 80
years an employee of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, to tell of the lists
! of trains and transportation methods
Ill vogue so years ago. Mr.. Gordon
has been resident of Trenton for
several years, and was for many years
in charge of the Belvidere Division of
the Pennsylvania railroad.
He has a copy of Il time table dated
January 30, 1854, whom there we're
but two trains running on the Belvi-
dere Division. aud Mr. Gordon was In
charge Of one Of them. In those days
the time tables were written by hand,
the hour written with ink, so they
were not scattered abroad 80 promis-
cuously as today. The time table
bearing this date WAS the second form
of its kind issued for that division OF
the road. Mr. Gordon also has II copy
of an earlier table, clipped from a
True Americans issue of August,
1S43.
Another table of tho Belvdere Di-
vision, issued in November, 1868, is
more modern. being printed, and
scheduling 10 daily trains over the
road.
In those days transportation was
rather unique az compared with the
facilities OF today. A journey to Phil
adelphia was accomplished by taking
a horse cur from the terminus, Broad
and Hanover streets. Trenton. to tho
Pennsylvania railroad station, stu
ated al the State street crossing over
the Delaware and Raritan canal.
where train for BordentowD could
be boarded. This train ran TO the
old wharf in Bordentown, whence the
rest of the journey was accomplished
by boat on the Delaware river. The
time consumed in following this cir.
euitous route was but three hours
each way. and the fare 80 cents. Ow-
ing to the fact that the craft plying on
the river today must follow the bends
the river as fur az Bordentown, the
trip to Philadelphia il not made in
any less time.

william Gibbs NcAdo0.

William Gibbs McAdoo, the builder of
the tunnel under the Hudson river,
named after him. was born near Mari
eta, Ca, on October 81, 1868. He
studied law and began to practice in
Chattanooga after he had reached his
twenty first year. In 1892 he moved to
New York and began to practice law
there until 1902, when he organized the
company which acquired the old tun-
mel under the Hudson which had been
begun in 1874. This original tunnel
plan had proven failure and a second
attempt met with the same fate. Nc
Adoo was confident that the tunnel
project could be carried out success
fully and was made president of the
New York & New Jersey Railroad COM
pany, which has since built the tunnel
from Christopher street to Jersey City.
One year later, In 1903, he organized
and was elected president of the Hud-
son and Manhattan Railroad company,
which started the tunnel from Cort-
land street to the Pennsylvania railroad
depot in Jersey City

HE IS MISLEADING YOU.

A LAST WORD TO YOU, Mr.. I'm
ion Labor Man
It is one of the many illusions of
Mr. Bryan that he is the special and
only champion of labor.
What has Mr.. Bryan ever done for
labor?
When in congress he helped to
frame a tariff bill which kept hun
dreds of thousands of men out of en-
ployment until republican admins
tration was elected and a republican
tariff act passed.
Could he have hit labor more par
alyzing blow?
THE MAN WHO declares that he
has no interest in this campaign, may
set down as an Indifferent and self
fish citizen. No resident of this coun-
ty, who has the right to vote, has any
right to be Indifferent to this present
contest 1t is disgusting to read of
men who have no interest in politics
at such time as this.
