The necessarily small apace in which the meal must be prepared,* the rapid man­ ner in which it must - be served, the fact that all the time the train is run­ ning at a high rate of speed, and that tbe diners are moving >in and out of the dining car, in the very limited space allotted for the waiters to serve' tbe meal, all add materially* to the dif­ ficulty of the situation. "In looking over a dinner menu ki use on the New York Central's Twen­ tieth Century Limited, I was surprised to find that this dinner -would cost, at any first class hotel in.New York, between $4 and $5. Of eourse, all of the -dishes on the menu would not likely be ordered by any «one person, but the fact that each patron i has the entire menu to order from is the foun­ dation for my estimate of what tbe dinner would cost in New York. "Among the dishes served on the day I •exatirined the menu were green turtle soup, shad, fresh mushrooms), spring lamb, teal duck, fresh toma­ toes, strawberry shortcake, etc., etc." --From the Brooklyn Standard tUnion.

Between 1890-tmd 1900 the per cent of increase in "the population of all cities having at least 2,500 inhabitants was only aboutvrwo-thirds of what 4t wis twtween 1880 and 1890.

"The rates of Hi crease on the two of .the northern Atlantic differ nttveh less than they did a generation a««u Among the &ve main 'divisions of (Continental United States tibe high­ est (tate of .increase is found -in the western division, and the lowest ih the nxxrth .centrat Among the eleven minor divisions the highest rate of growth lis fouad in the Rocky moun­ tain group of atates, closely followed by the western &outh central; the tew est in the northern So*.th Atlantic closely foiSowed by the western north central. In the <keade 1J»0 to 1900, for the first time in the national history, the Southern sta4.es increased faster than the Northern. East of the Mississip­ pi river, however, the Norther® states have grown somewhat more rapidly than the Southern; but West of that river the Southern states have in­ creased almost two and one-half times as rapidly as the Northern, and it is this fact which makes the growth of the South as a whole exceed that of the North. Increase Is 8teady. In the North Atlantic division the rate of increase has risen steadily since the civil war, a notable contrast to ths trend in the country as a whole. The region west of the Mis­ sissippi river is still increasing faster than east of It, but the difference be­ tween the rates of growth in the two regions, 1890 to 1900, was little more than one-fifth of «rhat it was 18S0 to 1890. 4 The region east of the Mississippi increased more rapidly from 1890 to 1900 than from 1880 to 1S90, while that To Pitch for Cleveland.
