"A. II. Burrell, ST., Of Newark. y. J.. ar
rived In Pooler last week, and will remain
mere some time. Mr.. Burrell is the father
OF horace Burrell, who resides on Rothwell
street. The meeting between father and
son was very affecting, as they have not
seen each other in quite a number of years (:
IN TACT, MIR. Burrell, ST., hardly had any
loee where his son was living, and only

The passengers from Pooler who are COM
PEELED 10 leave on the early train, Capt.
helly's lightning express" would give
Supt. OH vote OF thanks if they could
have the use Of the waiting rooms while
watching for the train. There ore about
seventy-tive or eighty passengers every
morning. and it is disagreeable standing in
the cold and rain waiting for the train. If
it is too soon for the agent to get out
TO open up the waiting room, Key could
pc gwen 70 some responsible party who
would open the door. The waiting room is
really worthless unless IL can be used by the
majority Of the passengers getting on at
this place, and it is an undisputed fact that
Pooler's crowd fills that early train by
itself.

VIII install the newly elected officers
During the past year Richard T. Turner

amount OF life in the order at this place.
Visitors are present at nearly every meeting.
Since the Richmond aud Danville has
taken control Of the Central there has been
cry against the Inconvenience to passen-
gers on the shootlv. The patrons of the
train at first decided to consult the
authorities, but abandoned the plan.
The cause of the trouble Is in not pro-
viding sufficient room for the passengers
The crowd that has heretofore been
carried in four passenger cars Is
now huddled up into two passenger
cars and half baggage and half smoking
car. BY actual count eighteen passengers
were in the first car and fifteen in the sec
ond car standing up, while the baggage car
was filled, couple Of days ago The cars
will not seat more than f1fty"fve or sixty,
and every night there are not less than sew
enty to eighty in the cars. A good many
have complained to Conductor Mike Jor-
dan, but he says 1t is impossible for him to
seat them when has no cars to put them
into. 1t Is understood that a petition will
be sent to the railroad commission stating
the condition of affairs ON this train if il
was not changed soon.
