latest Is the Lincoln and Omaha "limited," a
tialu that discounts anything in the western
country, both for speed ami luxurious ap

when It was announced that a bundled

train just added makes the Jump In seventy -llo
minutes, which, when aualied shows
that it rims at the rate of a mile a minute.
According ton city oidiiiaueuboth In Omaha
mid Lincoln all lailinad trains must i mi slow

fully live minutes in each of the cities, a stop '
at Ashland consumes another live minutes;
