A ISAM CBEW LOSES 001 T ;se Who lOperated Trans Ncs. 13 and 14 Have Been Temporarily Laid Off By the New Change. By anew order of things just in augurated by the Southern Hallway, Brunswick is made thwpoint of des tination of all trains of the road which heretofore ended at Jnckson- Mlle, aud, while the city gets a lit tl" better service, an entire train crew, all of whom live in Brunswick, !> ve, been temporarily laid off. This new formerly operated trains Nos. j3 and 14 between Brunswick and Jesup and is composed of Conductor f led HigginS, Engineer Tom Ford. Flagman Ueorge Temple, Express e.-'-eligur .Louis Tharin and the jlored porter, ileretorfore a short train lias been ■ aerated out of Brunswick as No. 13, i ..lining as far as Jessup, where it . muecßri with the regular train ■jund from Jacksonville to Atlanta, he Brunswick sleeper was trims .! rred at Jcsup, hut passengers In .he day coach were required to change cars. This train crew then ■ icnt the night in Jesup and waited the following morning on Train No. 44 from Atlanta. In otlicr words. It wus simply a abort train between runswick and Jesup. Under the new order, however. •,:its train, as well as all others,come through to Brunswick instead of ucki-onville and are operated to this city by the same crew leaving At lanta. Instead of dropping the "runswick sleeper at Jesup and re quiring the day coach passengers to change cars, the train continues on o this city, and the Jacksonville and rther Florida sleepers are dropped lid carried on by another train, '.'rains %is. 16 and 6 also come ',hrough to this city from Atlanta. By this change it will be seen that 'irunswick is given a better service, here now being three through trains ach way between this city and At lanta. It is understood that the crew which has been temporarily laid of* will shortly be placed on another -run. The change was probably made :n order to reduce the run of the crews on train.
