Of the Lake Shore Road between Buffalo and the

1t IS intended place the extension between San
dusky City and the Manmee river, under contract
as soon as the location is completed. The reputa.
ton and ability of the President, Judge Lane, is
sufficient TO insure its speedy and successful com

the terminus OF the Mad River and the Columbus

a large accession to its way and through business
We observe that the business of both those Roads
is rapidly increasing and their extension into the
heart of Ohio gives promise Of their continued
and future prosperity The last mentioned Road
has fallen into the hands of some of our most en-

within Ohio are destined to make the shores of

The incidents of the piece are highly entertain

THAT IS will the learned editor of the Mo.
bile Herald turn to the grammars of Wells and
Brown? Wells, in his edition of 1916, sanctions
the omission of the additional "s," when an UNI
pleasant succession of kissing sounds occurs. He
says: The apostrophic s. is at present more
frequently omitted than formerly, and will, probably,
in the course of the century, be always dropped
after words ending in r." Brown says
. Toavoid concunenceo of kissing sounds, the
is sometimes omitted and the apostrophe alone
retained to mark the possessive singular, Moses
minister.
