PAGE TWO : Mile of Trains to Form Seven N. P. Transcontinentals After June [Daly Cross-word Puzzle | FAST NORTH COAST AND COMETS TO USE 120 MEN IN CREWS First of Limiteds to Start; From St. Paul; Simultaneous Movement West and East EIGHT ENGINES PER UNIT With Addition of Pacific and At- lantic Express 22 Flyers Move at Same Time In preparation for launching, Sun- day June 9, the fastest train service ever operated between Chicago and the Pacific Northwest, nearly a mile’'s length of charactcristically modern North Coast Limited equip- ment this week will be split into seven distinct trains which will be required for the new operation. Passenger and transportation of- ficials of the Northern Pacific for months have been diligently at work o~. the new time card. The North Coast Limited will be the first of the 63-hour westbound trains to operate out of the St. Paul- Minneapolis terminal and the first to arrive at Seattle, Tacoma, and Portland. This train will make the/| eastbound trip in 61% hours, The North Coast Limited will share with one of the other roads in the inaug- uration of the first train on this faster service out of the Chicago, Se- attle and Tacoma terminals, and will be the first out of Portland. The North Coast Limited, which just has observed the twenty-ninth anniversary of its maiden trip, thus will lead the procession westerly on the new fast time. Highly Techincal Task Establishing the new service on Sunday, June 9, furnishes to trans- portation officials of the railroad a highly technical task. The first North Coast Limited will be made up at St. Paul, leaving westbound at 8:15 a. m., actually marking the launch- ing of the new service, and reaching Seattle at 10 a. m. on June 11. Start- ing from Seattle, Tacoma and Port- land eastbound at the dinner hour, also on Sunday, June 9, this unit of the North Coast Limited fleet will arrive at Minneapolis at 10:10 p. m., June 11, St. Paul at 10:45 p. m., and at Chicago at 9:30 a. m., June 12. On Sunday, June 9, at 9 p. m., another westbound North Coast Limited will leave from the castern terminal. Thereafter, other trains of the fleet will move into service from their terminals at the appointed hour until at 9 p. m. on June 11 six distinct North Coast Limiteds will be operat- ing between Chicago and the North Pacific terminals. All will have gone into service with utmost precision and the new fast service will be entirely in gear. Thus, at 9 p. m. on June 11, one ‘westbound train will be leaving Chi- cago, another will be nearing Dick- inson, N. D., and a third approaching Spokane, Wash. Eastbound, at the same hour, one train, three hours out of Seattle, will be passing over the Cascade mountains. A second will be moving over Bozeman mountain, near Livingston, Mont., and a third travel- ing through Minnesota, nearing Min- neapolis-St. Paul. Two Transcontinentals The Northern Pacific, new schedule, will have also between Chicago and the Pacific Northwest daily another transcontinental train, making two transcontinental trains between the western and eastern ter- minals. They will be the North Coast Limited and the Comet. while be- tween St. Paul-Minneapolis and the Pacific Northwest will be a third transcontinental train. Beginning June 18, a second section of the Comet will operate between St. Paul- lis and Gardiner, Mont., the f Weather Report ‘ | ‘Temperature at 7 a. m. oe Highest yest Ever || our ouR WAY By Williams _ || Pons 3 : bi PO~oeCOSOSOSSOSOCCS EPEREREEER es i i | SIDE GLANCES - - - - By George Clark | “—and of course, gentlemen, nowadays we live faster and haven't time to strop a razor.” northern entrance to Yellowstone Na- tional Park, and this train will be known as the Yellowstone Comet. On June 11, by 9 p. m., there will be 12 Chicago-Pacific Coast trans- continental trains operating between the eastern and western terminals, all in motion at the same time—six North Coast Limiteds and six Comets. Also, added to this fleet of trains will be the Pacific-Atlantic Expresses be- tween St. Paul and the Pacific North- west, adding six” more units, and, by June 21 at 9 p. m., four Yellowstone Comets will be i.. service, making a total of 22 through trains, all moving simultaneously, not including locals. Requires 120 in Crews To handle the six North Coast Limiteds will require 120 specially trained employes riding on these trains, including porters, baggage men, train and engine crews and diner and observation car attaches. In addition, there will be a small army of employes stationed along the lines to handle other details of oper- ation. Between Chicago and the Pa- cific Northwest eight locomotives will be required in the through movement of each unit of the North Coast Lim- ited. This will require 18 engine crews. Eleven separate train crews will handle each North Coast Limited in_this transcontinental movement. The seventh completely equipped unit of the North Coast Limited will be required to round out the fleet, although the maximum number mov- ing at the same time will be six. i AT THE MOVIES { e ° ELTINGE THEATRE “The Bridge of San Luis Rey,” a filmization, with music score and sound effects, of Thornton Wilder's celebrated novel, is the attraction coming to the Eltinge for Monday and under its] tuesda; y. Plans to film the Pulitzer prize- winning novel, a literary sensation, started widespread*debate because of the.strangeness of the story and the difficulties of putting it on the screen. Majestic settings, great cathedrals, picturesque wilds, and strange, un- canny lighting and photographic ef- fects, the thrilling spectacle of the wrecking of a great bridge over an Andean gorge, and vivid, intimate de- tails that literally bare the lives of its characters are all woven into the central theme, a story of love. The cast is a remarkable one, as famous artists fill every principal role.

Don Alvarado, Raquel Torres, Henry B. Walthall, Tully Mar- shall, Emily Fitzroy, Duncan Rinaldo and many others are in the cast. Hundreds of people ‘appear in ca- thedral and bridge scenes, adding to th> general effectiveness of the grip- ping drama of old Peru. CAPITOL THEATRE One of the most widely read, like- wise commented upon, stories that has appeared in many years comes to the Capitol theatre in picturized form for an engagement of three days starting next Monday. It is “Mother Knows Best” and it has been given a picturization that is said greatly to enhance its drama, its | hoa, genuineness, and all else. Mother themes have been widely used in_screen stories, but “Mother Knows Best,” the story of a child of the stage and her mother, treats the underlying theme from an entirely different angle. It emphasizes the longing of the girl for the natural in contrast to the artificiality of a the- atricalearcer, a longing which gradu- ally brings about a transition of char- acter and plants the seeds of a com- bat between the artificial and the real. Incidentally, “Mother Knows Best” brings to the screen a new Madge Bellamy, hitherto identified with ultra and unsophisticated roles, and shows her to have emotional talent plus. Likewise “Mother Knows Best” will be long remembered for the mar- velous portrayal of the mother role by the beloved Louise Dresser and the sterling performance of Barry Norton and a large supporting company.

Vail medal awards are made an- nually to telephone employes of the Bell stystem in special recognition of the most conspicuous examples of noteworthy public service. A total of 52 bronze medals have been award- ed by associated companies of the Bell system for noteworthy services performed during 1928. In addition, the national committee of award has awarded four silver medals in special recognition of conspicuous excellence or importance. Due to a broken riser pipe in-the tank, all but two feet of water had leaked out. This had frozen and Schwedouski had been hired by the city to remove the ice. He climbed the ladder to the roof of the tank 130 feet from the ground and let himself down through an opening in the roof with a knotted rope reaching to the bottom 30 feet below. When he finished chopping the ice and throwng it out through the riser pipe hole, he found he was unable to ciimb the rope, as.it was slippery be- cause of being covered with frost and is was tired from chopping out the ice. : After several attempts, his hands became too cold and his arms too weary to make further attempts. He called through the opening at the bottom of the tank to the city mar- shal on the ground below and asked for help. In seeking help, the marshal was directed to Wilke whom he found in his room getting ready for supper. ‘Wilke immediately put on his work clothes, obtained block and tackle and rope, climbed to the top of the tank and let down a rope to Schwedouski, instructing him to tie it around his ly. Wilke then braced himself around the ladder, pulled Schwedouski up is far as possible with the block and tackle and then hand over hand the remaining 15 feet with Schwedouski aiding by climbing as much as he could. Schwedouski although badly chilled was able to descend unaided, Wilke going first to catch him in case he should slip. Because of the low temperature and dampness it is questionable whether Schwedouski could have sur- vived the night in the tank. The city marshal said he knew of no one who would have attempted the rescue. Wilke’s work was made dangerous because of the frosty condition of the ladder and roof of the tank and be- cause it was impossible for him to use his safety belt. Wilke started as lineman with the Northwestern Bell Telephone com- pany at Fargo, in August, 1927, and has been in telephone construction work since then with the exception of 16 months in military service and nine months on an exchange rebuild- ing job for the Northern States Pow- er company at Minot. He is now foreman in the construction depart- ment at Fargo.

Awak- ening in the early morning, John Peebles, Lucy’s uncle, finds a burglar in his den, searching for the famous Alex Peterson revolver loaded with gold bullets which have become mysteriously en- meshed in the tangle of Ogden’s death. Whe last message of a niurdered man—an echo from the dead of 30 years ago—is discov- ered in one of the cartridges and the name of “Dillon” flashes into the picture.

If Dillon knew of the note in this pistol he would have good rea- son for trying to get it. And if Og- den also had come into possession of the dangerous information it con- tained—dangerous to Dillon, I mean —you see my drift?” MacNair shrugged. “Pure specula- tion Peebles.

In 34th street, adjoining an area- way which leads into station, there is a little shop dealing a Plants, sceds, shrubs and such ings. It has a direct appeal to the com- muter, who bethinks himself of hi own front lawn and takes time out to buy @ box of pansies or some bulbs. The sidewalk in front of the shop is cluttered with small square boxcs which are verdant incongruities in a block conglomerate with squawking tadio shops and cheap lunch counters. crowds stub their toes on over-the- at the innocent sprouting greenery. To the city dweller this glimpse of garden affords just @ hint of the lovely outdoors to be found somewhere or other, but not in Manhattan. ese ¢ Each afternoon, when the sun has swung over the midtown sky-touchers, @ lanky lad in overalls and bare feet comes from the store bearing a long- nosed sprinkling can. o ! °. watering his sidewalk garden, he lei- surely puts on his shoes and goes back into the store.
