EAST MAIL SERVICE
Iron Mountain Will Put On Easter Train
To Hold Texas Mail Carrying Con
tract. White River Service.
The conference of passenger
officials of the Gould system of
southwestern roads in Hot
Springs Wednesday decided to
inaugurate a fast mail service
from St. Louis to Texas with
close connection at Little Rock
for points in Indian Territory..
The Frisco has just put on a
fast mail train leaving St. Louis
about the time of No. 7, 3:05 a.
m., making connection with the I
M. K. & T. at Vinita, I. T.,
whereby it puts mail into Texas
from six to sixteen hours ahead
or tne (jouia roaas. ine postal
authorities will probably give
the Frisco and Katy this big mail
contract soon to be let for anoth
er year, unless the Iron Mount
ain can put No. 7 on a much
faster schedule.
The announcement comes that
a new time card will be effective
February 1, and a new speed
record will be set for the fast
mail train which carries the St.
Louis papers. This will be good
news to Newport, and especially
the subscribers of the big St.
Louis dailies.
WHITE RIVER SERVICE.
'
Passenger service between
Carthage and Newport, since the
new road has been opened to
traffic, has been unavoidably
bad, owing to washouts and
wrecks caused by the floods and
high water.
Railroad men say however
that a poor lot of half broken
down engines are being used on
this road, which accounts for
considerable poor service. Only
Wednesday the train due here at
8:30 p. tn. from Carthage did
not arrive until 9 o’clock next
morning. The regular engine
broke down and two relief en
gines wore sent out of Batesville
before the belated train was
finally brought in.
For Northern Boys Only.
Joplin," Mo. had a very eccen
tric character.
A. W. Carson, one of the old
est newspaper men of that state
who died there recently, gave
$1,000 for the disemination of
Mark Twain’s “How to be a
Gentleman” to the Y. M. C. A.
of the north. He stated in his
will that they did not need the
good advice contained therein in
the south.
Cotton Belt Auditors Off.
The report has been sent out
from St. Louis that Cotton Belt
auditors were to go and that the
conductors would again be made
custodians of the fares and
tick?ts. Naturally there is re
joicing among the employes who
have never taken kindly to the |
innovation.
