TO OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
THE COAST LINE TO BE BUILT TO
ISLE OF HOPE

| Work on the Extension from Thur
dsrbolt to Sandfy Station Begun
The Rights Of Way Secured and the
Road to be Completed in Sixty Days
A Probable Extension to Warsaw
Deal in City and Suburban Stock.
Work was begun yesterday morning or
the extension Of the Coast Line railroad
from Thunderbolt to Isle of Hope. The
contract for building the road has been lei
to Edward Ward, and it is understood that
the extension from Thunderbolt to Sandfiy
station, TO connect with the City and Sub
urban railway, is to be completed within
sixty days. To facilitate matters work is
to be prosecuted vigorously from both ends
OF the line. The distance from Thunderbolt
to Sandfy station is ~ miles, and the
track is to be 5-foot gauge and to be laid
with 60-pound steel rails.
The project has been kept quiet, and pur-
posely so, until all the rights Of way were
secured, and those who saw the surveyors
at work thought the line was being run to
locate shell road. Not until all the rights
OF way were acquired and the surveys COM
pleted did it leak out that the road was to
be extended.
THE LINE OF THE ROAD.
About $4,000 is TO be expended in the
extension. The route curves out of Thun-
derbolt on the Bannon lot, passing near the
Postell, Taylor, and Bonabslla places on the
salt water, and thence directly to Sandfiy
station, developing a pretty and hsalthf1l
country.
On the route are the following places:
Chandler INIT Al H..
Asendorf's, Stunts, John Taylor's, Bona
bella, McDonald's, Graham's, Goes. Chand-
ler's, Orr's, RartFidge's, Robert LaRoche's.
Christy's, Pembroke, Nichols, and Har-
rocks, through all of which rights Of way
were obtained.
The farther extension of the railroad to
Warsaw Island is contemplated, and it ia
SAID tnat 1t will be built at an early day.
The distance from Isle of Hope to Warsaw
Island is about fifteen miles, only three
miles OF which is marsh, and the rest of the
route Is high land. Three short draw
bridges will be required. One of these
bridges will span the SIidaway narrows.
the second will be over RomeIy marsh. and
the third across Warsaw cresk.
$4,000 OF STOCK GOES NORTH.
Another important transaction in the
affairs Of the City aud Suburban Railway
Company was the sale and transfer yester-
oay OF S1o,OOO OF the stock Of the company
to northern parties. or the stock Of $50
OoO Mr. George Parsons holds shares to the
amount of $4,000 There were transferred
to northern parties yesterday stock to the
amount Of $4,000, and the remaining 81 900
OF stock is held in Savannah. The owners
OF these shares decline to part with their
stock
1t is said by those who are in position
to know, that it is the intention of the com
pany, to make Warsaw Island a popular
seaside resort, and while the road will
hardly be extended to Warsaw this wear IL
will not be long delayed, and the extern
sion of the road from Thunderbolt is only
the beginning of the general plan with
Warsaw Island as the objective point.
