The Business Outlook.

In conversation with one of our pominent
business men yesterday, he remarked that
he had been in active business in this city
for many years, and that he considered the
present season the most prosperous and
satisfactory that he has ever experienced
This is evident; just notice for a moment
the enhancement IN the value of real es-
tate, of stocks aod bonds, all of which go to
prove his assertion correct. The greatest
and most remarkable revolution In trade
has been the organization of the Davis
Bros Piano and Organ Clubs. They felt
the pulse of the people, and struck the key
note, which found responsive echoes in
their hearts and pockets. All good things
are initiative, but after all are limitations,
not seen or appreciated at the first glance
by a casual observer, but the connoiseur is
not to be lead away from the true state of
things. just think of 1t, saving Of S25

SPRINGFIELD WANTS 1T.
Emngham's Capital Anxious for tn
South Bound to Come There.

Ehngham's Capital Anxious for the
South Bound to Come There
Judge Amos F. Balm of Springfield, Ef-
bingham county, in a letter TO the MORNING
NEWS says that the people Of that section,
realizing that the South Bound railroad is
soon to be built, want to be informed as
soon as the construction company is organ
lied and the railroad company is ready to
locate their line permanently, as they want
to take public action looking to the location
OF the line of road, so that Springfield may
be station on the South Bound.
Judge RAIN says: "We mean business,
and we feel sure that if we can have a
fair chance to talk to, and show our South
Bound friends the country around here and
below here that they will see at once the
Importance Of bringing their road via
Springfield"
A MORNING NEWS reporter communi-
Herman Myers yesterday afternoon. Mr.
Myers said that when the line is
located the people Of Springfield
will be given a hearing, and
theta claims will be given respectful con-
sideration. In response to an invitation
representatives of the railroad company
met the Springfield people some months
ago, so that the claims of the citizens there
are TO some extent known to the projectors
Of the road.
From member of the South Bound COM
Dany it was learned that the route via
Springfield is thought by some of the pro-
Jectors to be a doubtful practicability, and
to remove that doubt the citizens of Spring
field will, doubtless, have to bestir them
selves or find the town mile or two off the
line

THE GAY SEASON ENDED.
The Great Lenten Fast and Rest to
Begin To-Day.

AO Va cav aSAIoA pASJ anu EL0SL TO
Begin To-Day.
Society's gay season came to an end last
night, and for the next six weeks there will
be fewer balls and germans than there have
been in the last six weeks Socially, the
season has been an unusually gay one, and
society has gone its full length. The season
closed last night with a number of enter
tainments.
Yesterday was Shrove Tuesday, the
day before Ash Wednesday, the beginning
of Lent. Special services were held in the
Roman Catholic churches. As the name
indicates, the day was originally set apart
as day of shrift, or confessions, and as a
proper preparation for the Lenten period.
The great church fast begins to-day with
Ash Wednesday. The day takes its name
from the ancient custom of strewing ashes
on the head as a sign of penitence.
The programmes of services during Lent
will be announced to-day in all of the
| churches which observe the fast. At Christ
and st. Johns churches morning services
will be held at II o'clock. AT the cathedral
| and at st. Patricks the usual Ash Wednes-
| day masses will be celebrated, and the rules
for the observance of Lent will be read.

TOO MUCH WORK IN THE CITY.

Alderman Harmon does not propose to
cripple the reduced appropriation at his
disposal for the residence part of the city
where drainage is of vital Importance to go
out of the residence portion of the city west
of the cemetery and West Boundary street
to work roads that are in fairly good condi-
ton and need only to have a few holes
filed up. The most that can be said of
them is that the sand is rather
deep They are no worse than some Of the
streets inside the city proper. If the city
council will appropriate the money for
working the roads complained of, Alder
mau Harmon says he will do whatever is
necessary to be done.
