ONE CAR ITS ROLLING STOCK. Though entirely new in Us pattern, the Great Northern motor car that recently arrived in St. Paul from Aurora, 111., Is not the first steam motor car that the city has ever seen. The first locomotive that was ever possessed by the old St. Paul & Sioux City railroad, now part of ! the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & j Omaha, was a motor car, the combina- i tion' of a locomotive, baggage car and j coach. ! This car was. in fact, all the equipment I that the road bad when In 196a the roadway road-way was first completed between Men-dota Men-dota and Shakopee. The front end of the . car rather resembled an ordinary steam locomotive, with its pilot, boiler and ; smokestack all projecting out from the rest ot the car. St. Paul Dispatch.
