"a company OIpOTdS0~ ~
The Capital StocS-
Savannah is to have a new suburban rail-
way line. A bill to incorporate the rail-
road is now before the legislature, and
work will begin early this fall
The name Of the new enterprise Is the
! Southover Street Railroad company, ana
the incOrDorators are Col G. h. OlmStea1,
J. l.. Whatley aud c. II. Dorsetr'
The line will begin at the turning OF tne
Belt Line on Montgomery street. and Will
run southwest to point on
the old Ogeechee road. lt will
W bo,,t t1vo and one-half miles in length.
Tbe qua will be from Montgomery street
through the Bayrard place. now owned by
Gar II r. Jackson, Col. j. l.. Whatley,
col 0lms.ead and Henry Hull; thence
tbrou0h the Coburn place to Southover
junction on Ogeechee avenue. From South
over it will run to the Martha Adams place
on the old Ogeechee road.
! branch Of the road will run through
the lands OF the Southover Land
Company to the factory which it
il proposed 10 erect there shortly.
TIE CAPITAL stock of the road is $l5,0 900,
with the privilege of increasing to $500, 900.
The stock is a certainty, as there are enough
large land owners along the proposed route
to cas- " take the whole amount. AS soon
as The stock IS secured the work or building
the road will be begun. The road will be
built to use electricity. 1t will open up
new suburban section to the city II a direc-
ton hitherto untouched. The lands south
west of the city are very fine and
splendidly situated for building purposes,
having an elevation of twenty feet above
the Springfield level. This section is entirely
undeveloped, and it is the purpose OF the
of the new railroad TO de-
veop it by bringing it into closer conuec-
tion with the city.
The road will prove a valuable adjunct 10
the cotton factory which is to be built at
Southover. The board Of directors has
ordered the first series of the factory stock
called in Sept. l. A committee has been
to see the railroads with regard
to putting in side track and making
freight arrangements for the factory.

the track had not been cleaned off in little
while people might have forgotten all about
its being there.

LANpsBHRa INDICTED.
A True Bill Found Against Miss Whites
AsSAilaut.

AsS31tant.
The grand jury OF the superior court
Yesterday afternoon found a true bill
against James Landsberg for assault with
criminal intent upon Miss Leila White last
May week.
The story OF the crime was published in
the MoRNfyG NEWS at the time and Is still
fresh in the minds OF the public. The feel
ing Of Indignation among the people
against Landsberg at the time ran very
high and there was considerable talk OF
lynching. SO much so that Landsberg found
il more congenial to leave the city than re-
main. He has never returned, but his
whereabouts are known by Solicitor Gen
eraI Fraser, and when the time for bis trial
arrives il he does not return voluntarily
he will be brought back by process Of law.
Landsberg's friends say that he will come
back whenever wanted and stand trial.
He is under a bond Of $1,000.
Miss White came in yesterday from
Appling county and appeared before the
grand jury and told her story. The other
witnesses we're j. z. Mcintyre, who took
Miss White into his house on the day of the
attempted assault, and Henry Mclean,
Colored man.
Miss White ia a modest-appearing young
girl not over II years old, and seems to be
of a retiring disposition. She has pleas
ing face, bright blue eyes and wealth OF
curly auburn hair She wore close-htting
lowered calico dress and large black straw
hat, deckei with bright red artificial roses.
Landsberg would have been indicted
sooner. but for the fact that Miss
White has been too sick to appear before
the grand jury. He cannot be tried until
the December term as court will adjourn
in about three weeks, and the docket is
filled with assignments.

On plush cloaks, satin-lined.

Such tax on wooden socks,
Ipraised the coloring she had made,
The etching she had drawn.

Beneath her bosom's lawn.

LOVE SHOULD FIND THE WAY.

Your ewes, dear one, are liz @ the stars
Within the heavens shining;
Your tresses fair around your brow
Are delicately twining.
And as they fall upon your neck
They fairy-like do play so
That can but this question ask,
"Oh, If you love me, say So"
The fragrant roses as you pass,
Though in their bloom and beauty,
Within their petals shrink and gaze
And deem 1t but their duty.
For they are envious of your charms
Then why do you delay so?
Oh, why not Danish oil my fears,
And If you love me, say so?

TIE STORY TOLD ANEW

In the dusk and down lane
Two walked, hand in hand, together;
Blew the wind and fell the rain,
Little needed they the weather.
Cold March winds might storm about,
Warmth within marke ed cold without.
Had the road been paved with gold.
They had never seen simmer;
Had the stars left heavens high fold,
Night to them had grown no DINNER.
Earth, unto its widest hem,
Consisted of four feet for them.
What said he to make her start,
Flush and glow with sudden pleasure?
What could cause the woman's heart
Then to beat faster measure?
Why did eyelids, prone to rise.
Hide the light of glowing eyes?
Twas the story told anew,
Old. yet never antiquated;
Just the same words-just as few
Just the case so often stated
Just the same in every wise
AS once was told In Paradise.
