It Will Carry an Obtervatlon Car Be tween Portland anil St. I'nol Modern Improvements. General Passenger Agent Charles B. Fee, of tho Northern Pacific railway, who reached Portland Thursday, an nounced that April 29 his company will establish a double daily passenger train service between Portland, Puget Sound and the twin cities, St. Paul and Min neapolis. ine morning train from M. raul w leave at 8:55, after the arrival of the fast trains from Chicago, SI, Louis acd the East, running by tue way of Butte, and will reach Portland at 7 a. m. The corresponding trainwill leave Portland at 11 :30 a. m. by Mie way of B Ute, and will reach St. Paul at 3 p. m. and will be known as the 'Worth Coast Limited." Train No. 3 will leave St. Paul a9 at present, 10:35 p. m., arriviog at P.r. land at 8 p. m. Train No. 4 will leave Portland at 11 :30 p. m. and arrive at St. Paul at 7 :45 a. m. Both 3 and 4 will run by way of Helena. This schedule will continue in effect until November 1, and longer if the businets justifies it. Trains 3 and 4 will carry the same equip in e nt as present 1 and 2, first and second class coaches, Pullman first class and Pullman tourist sleepers and dining cars, with the usual number of mail, express and baggage cars. These trains will carry standard and tourist sleepers from and to St. Lonis by tho Billings ronte, the "Burlington," thus offering the public a service to the Missouri river country, St. Louis and inter mediate territory superior to anything heretofore established. The "North Coast Limited" will, be one of the handsomest and most com plete passenger trains in the country. With its new 70-foot baggage and ex press cars, combination emoker, new first class coaches, new Pullman tourist sleepers, handsomely upholetered in dark green leather, thoroughly modem first class sleepers and elegant dining curs, all wide vestibuled, the train might be considered complete. Its chief attractions, however, will be the thor ough lighting of the train throughout by electricity, including two berth lights for reading in each section, and an observation-ear, which will be 70 feet in length, with a wide and handsomely railed rear platform, will have 14 up holstered plush chairs, with writing desk and reading table in the rear end; a caiefully selected library of 123 vol umes; bath room, barber shop and buffet in the center, while in the rear, iu addition to toilet rooms for men and women, there will bo two smoking and card rooms, each furnished with six comfortable chairs and a folding table. These smoking or card rooms will be shut off from the remainder of the car and so thoroughly ventilated that thofe addicted to the weed may indulge at leisure without attracting undo atten tion. The Northern Pacific management re alize that for short night runs, as for instance, between St. Paul and Chicago, where there ie no opportunity to enjoy the really interesting scenerj , a library car meets the wants of the traveler, but on a tranEconteutal journey of 200U miles or more, where the passenger hopes to see something of the country through which he is passing, perhaps for the first time, tiiey hold that tho obseiva Hon cur is the car par excellence, and that nothing else will take its place. The "North Coast Limited" of the Northern Pacific will be run exclusive ly in the interest of passengers and, us a consequence, the observation' car will be kept on the end of the train for the benefit of the passengers who have paid their money and to the disgust possibly of the "private car" tourists and rail road officials who are so frequently in evidence. President Mellen says that neither his own private car' nor the privuto car of other officials or people will be hauled on this train. Thus, for the first timo the transcon tinental traveler is to have, and with out extra fare or charge, a dully trans continental passengar service absolutely superior to anylhiug heretofore offered him either in the West or in thu East. The Northern Pacific people feel con fident their enterprise will be appreciat ed by the public aud that the large business thoy liavo heretofore enjoyed will ho greatly increased, The Northern Pacific passenger busi ness of the past year has been very satis factory, aud it is showing a good increase right along. It will not seem out of place that the Northern Pacillu railway should inaugurate this service, as they Ik IT MISSIS inn..in'n nt'iii iiliitij"ittihi'iiitUoiiii'iMailitiiioi.t.niitnuiwHHiTtMm H liuViiii7i'tt'it'iM ttttinitft'it't h'ii MiimWii'iiiTiTiinmi ntl t mmumT AVfcgetable Preparationfor As similating iheFoodandHeguta Ung the Stomachs and Bowels of Promotes Digealion.Checrfur ncss andRest.Contains neither Opitim.Morphine nor Mineral.
