THE TIMES, 'NEW! BLOOMFIELD, rA.; MAY; b.rl87T.j
Hospitable Highwaymen.
A young man named Ragai was riding
along tlio road a few miloa beyond Castro
tlllo, whon two men rode up to bim from
the brush by the roadside, and demanded
his money. Both bad their faces masked,
but .did not present their revolvers, which
they oarrlrd in sight, simply saying that
they didn't think it necessary to draw on
him, as be was ao young. He had $ 19 in
hl pocket and a considerable sum in hln
boots. The robbers took the $19. They
tben invited the young man to step into
the brush and lunch with them, vrhioh he,
thinking it safest to humor them, did, al
though his appetite was not ravenous.
About 100 yards from the road the men
had a good lunch spread, which they par
took of boartily, keeping their faces mask
ed, however. After lunch the robbers
returned $7 to their victim and told him he
could go. , lie didn't wait for a second
bidding. Kan Antonio Efprcas, t
A Luxury on the Rail The Difference.
We haVe been frequently asked : " What
is the difference between a railroad dining
car and a Pullman Hotel car?" That there
is a vast difference is well known by those
who have had occasion to use either ; but
the untraveled publio are not fully advised
at to the points of difference. The old
fashioned railroad eating house is, alasl too
well known ; its peculiar, hastily-eaten
meals have been partaken of by too many
thousands to be forgotten. Tbediningcar,
ttien, is this well known eating-house placed
-on wheels, attaced to t he train at the usual
.meal house, and hauled along for thirty,
,forty or sixty miles, until the meal has
been served, whon it is set off on a side
track, and is by the next train hauled back
to its starting point, and so it runs a few
miles for each meal. To get meals in this
. car the passenger has to work his way
through the train while it is under full
.motion pass from car to car, running the
risks of falling between the platforms, and
finally finding the car at the rear of the
train. Tben comes the meal, which must
be hurried through with to give chance for
other hungry passengers to take your place
and you must force your way back to your
seat, and again run the risks of your plat
form passage while the train is at full
speed. In such cars you pay 75 cents
for each meal, even if you take or need
only a cup of coffee and a cracker. Bear
in mind, in no case do the dining cars ac
company the train from starting point to
destination. They are always "cut off"
and taken on as we have described. With
the Pullman Hotel car the case is different
in every respeot. These cars are sixty to
sixty-six feet long, have sixteen wheels
under each, are built strong, so as to in
sure steady, quiet running, without the
usual unpleasant side motion. Each Hotel
car contains, in the order named, the fol
lowing compartments :
1st. A cosy,neat and clean little kitchen,
fitted up with a range, an ice and meat
box, rows of shelves covered with bright
silver and brighter glass ware, and all the
appliances needed for preparing a sumptu
ous meal.
2nd. A compact China and glass closet,
in which is kept the table wear and table
linen, cutlery, etc.
3rd. A passage way, cutting off the
kitchen and China closet from the rest of
the car, and forming an air-chamber to
prevent the smell of the cooking victuals
from reaching the saloon portion of the car.
4th. The grand saloon. This is fitted
" up with twelve, fourteen or sixteen seo-
tions, with space for tables between each,
and in these the meals are served. You,
while on this car, own the space you occu
py as much as you do your own room at
home, and no one can hurry you while at
meals, nor are you forced to give it up to
allow any other person to occupy it. At
night, as if by magic, this saloon is chang
ed into a bourdoir, and here your couch is
prepared, and here you rest yourself isola
ted, and as separated from your fellow
travelers as you would be in your own bed-
cnamDer. i
5th. An elegant drawing-room, with
room for six or eight persons. This is found
aloue in these magnificent cars. In it you
and your family or party of friends may be
as secluded as you please, or you can slide
open the end and have the company of those
in the grand saloon.
Cth. "Charmingly-arranged lavatories are
partitioned off, and arranged in two dis
tinct compartments for the separate use of
ladies and gentlemen. These lavatories are
supplied with pure water, clean towels,
combs, brushes, and, in fact, everything
the most dainty may desire for the perfect
performance of an elaborate toilet.
7th. Tben follow the conductor's and
porters' rooms, linen closets, etc., etc.
It will thus be neon that this car is, as
its name implies, a perfect modern hotel,
with all of its appliances and comforts
complete. This car is taken on at the
commencement of the journey, and is part
of the train to its destination. In it you
get your sleeping compartments and your
meal accommodations, while ' neither en
croach upon the other. Envious dining-car
employees, who are paid to decry this form
of Hotel car, cannot, with anything like
truth on their side, give any valid or con
clusive reasons for preferring the dining
to the Hotel car, and they only chatter in
favor of their dining car because tbey are
paid to do so. These Hotel cars bave run
from New York to San Francisco and back
with the Emperor Dom Pedro with
Jarrett & Palmer's party, that traveled at
almost lightning speed with many a party
of California bonanza kings ; and all join
in pledging their honor that the cars are
incomparable.
Two lines of these celebrated cars run
between New York and Chicago, and one
line only between Chicago and Omaha. It
may be needless to say that this last-named
line runs over the steel track of the Chicago
& North- Western Hallway. That these
cars are attracting a large share of the
California travel, both ways, might easily
be conjectured. Any road deserves to be
patronized that is enterprising enough to
give the traveling publio such facilities as
are freely tendered by the Chicago & Sorh
Western Railway on its California line.
We bave neglected to say that, in these
Hotel cars, the meals are a la carte you
pay for what you get, and nothing more ;
and this at very reasonable rates. The
