The opening story in this months
st. Nicholas deals with Revolutionary
times, and particularly with devoted
old Wing who had vowed to wear the
same coat until the war was decided.
His chagrined granddaughter tried a
shrewd device to make their grand
father ashamed of his WORKOUT
garment, but he is enabled to outwit
them and to keep his VOW. The story
is stirring, elevated in style and senti-
ment. and by a comparatively new
writer, Miss Alice Maude Ewell.

Importance and interest to all the
subscribers to the stock of the Co,
lumbus Southern railway. Capt.
Little is q gentleman of known in
tegrity and his words carry with
thsm great weight. and he says the
road is being pushed to a speedy
competition.
Many of our readers are subscri-
bers to the stock of the company,
and fifty per cent. of the subscrib-
ed stock is due and has been legal.
ly called in by the directors. Quite
a number of persons in cur CONS
munity have paid up this fifty per
cent; but some have hesitated
about paying till they felt sure that
the road would be built. There
seems to be no valid reason to de.
lay longer ON this account, or any
other; and the authorities OF the
road are anxious to get in at once
the fifty per cent. of the stock
now due, 80 that they may ex,
pend the same in procuring cross
ties to be put down between Rich
land and Albany. Several citi
gems of our county have made cons
tracts for furnishing the road with
crossties and are now getting them
in readiness.
The notes given by the subscri-
bers in Terrell and Webster coun-
ties are in the hands of Major B.
H Hood, one of the board of d.
rectors,a and he is diligently attend>
ing to the collection of them.
He states that he has been notified
to urge the prompt payment of the
fifty per cent. now due on these
notes and he trusts that the sub
scribers will come forward and
settle at once. Neither he nor
the company desires to have to re,
sort to legal measures to cOerce
payment, believing that our peo-
pie will voluntarily meet these
payments in the same spirit OF
liberality and promptness which
actuated them when they SUBJ
scribed to the stock of this rail-
roao which will add SO much to the
prosperity of Dawson and of the

Two negro tramps forced ride
ON the cannon ball train from
Montgomery last Tuesday night
by covering conductor Hall with
double-barrelled gun and a re
volver.
As the train pulled away from
Shellman two negroes jumped on
the front platform OF the baggage
car, determined to force ride to
Dawson. The porter Of the train
saw them, and stepped out to make
the tramps jump off before the
train got uuder Roadway. AS he
stepped out of the car door, he was
covered by a double barrelled gun

two negro tramps, and was told
that he would be kill dif he opened
his mouth.
Conductor Hal, after going
through the train collecting tickets,
went through the baggage car and
out on the platform to see that
everything was all rilht. He was
not prepared tor difficulty and
was completely powerless when,
stepping out Of the car, he too
WAS covered and told to stop or he
would certainly be killed. One of
the negroes sand: Captain, you
had better rot try to do anything,
for we are determined to ride to
Dawson.

conductor, "you are acting in a way
to get into serious trouble, and you

if you move you will be killed."
Conductor Hall stood and talked
to them until the train slowed up
at Graves Station, when both of
the Negroes suddenly jumped off
the train into the bushes. Hall
said he could not see them after
the train stopped, but when the
train again started off they jumped
on to the rear PLATFORM of the train,
and before Conductor Hall could
get back to them they had tied the
door with the bell cord. Hall then

No Depot YET,

The Central railroad authorities
expressed their intentions, some
time ago, Of building new depot
in this city, even going so far
as to receive bids for its erection.
AS yet no movement has been
made towards the work, and it
would seem that the idea has been
abandoned. They probably think
that "a thing of beauty is q. joy
forever" and want TO hang on to
the present lovely edifce as long
as possible. It is an attractive
building, it is true, but we think
we might have as good depot as
Shellman or Bronwood.

subscription list, build a depot and
