York Central railroad , Is now making his
second visit to the Transmlsslsslppl Expo
sition. He Is as enthusiastic over the de
lights and attractions ot the big show as
ever and Is continually discovering new-
things about the exposition to praise. He
arrived here yesterday morning In his pri
vate car "Corsair , " which was transferred
to the expostlon grounds and now occupies
a convenient location within the grounds.
The exposition has had a constant friend
In General Passenger Agent Daniels and It
Is not too much to say that ho has done
more than any other eastern general pas
senger agent to advertise the exposition.
When General Passenger Agent Lomax of
the Union Pacific requested tbe eastern lines
to boom tbe exposition In their folders the
first affirmative reply was received from Ml.
Daniels. The New York Central has oleo
worked up the special party ot the Empire
state which will bo hero to help celebrate
Now York day on October 6 and tay during
the Peace Jubilee.
Mr. Daniels Is not a stranger to the weat ,
having spent several of his earlier years
of railroad work In Iowa and Missouri.
When ho was called by the Vanderbllt In
terests to take the place of general passenger
agent of the New York Central road ho
brought a fund of information and a knowl
edge of the duties ot the office that only
a long and severe training * could develop ,
nnd his success in the administration of
the duties of his office has proved the wis
dom of the appointment. Today Mr. Daniels
Is ono of the best known and most efficient ,
railway officials In the United States. He
Is tactful , resourceful and discharges all ot
the duties of bis office like a trained dip
lomat.
Mr. Daniels was born In Hampshire , 111. ,
on December 1 , 1842 , and when 15 years old
entered the tansportatlon business as a rod-
mnn/In the englneerr.is corps of the North
Missouri railroad. From this ho advanced
rapidly , until In 1872 , when only 30 > eara
old , ho became general freight and passenger
agent of the Chicago & Pacific railroad.
After serving two years , from 1880 to 1882 ,
ns general ticket agent of the Wabash , St.
Louis & Pacific railroad , Mr. Daniels entered
n somewhat different line of work as com
missioner of the Iowa Trunk Line associa
tion. After ten months' service In this place
ho was elected commissioner of the Colorado
Traffic association and passenger committee ,
which was merged Into the Central Traffic
association , of which Mr. Daniels was elected
vice-chairman nnd also chairman of the
Chicago eastbound passenger committee.
This was his position In 18S9 when he wan
appointed general passenger agent of th
New York Central.
The social side of Mr. Daniels la charm-
Ing. Ho has a rather quaint personality
and Is n delightful companion and a staunch
friend He Is a member of the Lotos club
of New York and for the last five yea-s
has been president of tbo Quaint club , a
social orcanlzatlon that embraces in Its
membership some of the best known busi
ness and professional men of the metiopolla
and which Is widely known for Its odd con-
celts and curious doings. He was ono of
the prime movers in the organization of the
Transportation club and Is now on the board
of managers. He has a host of friends nnd
Is personally known to almost every rail
road man In the country.

mission. His regiment Is now at Fort
Sheridan and Is to bo mustered out Octo

Colonel Young characterized the stories
of the great suffering of the soldiers at
Chlckamauga as "arrant nonsense" and
"absurd. " "Wo lost only fifteen men out
of 1,300 , " said ho , "and surely that cannot
bo said to bo a vcty great mortality. It
Is possible , ot course , that the general
conditions could have been Improved upon ,
for everything was naturally experimental ,
but ns fast as anything was discovered that
needed attention steps were at once taken
to remedy the evil , whatever It might have
been. "
