A CHANCE FOR PASCAGOULA.

a delegation from the Pascagoula CONNER
cial Club, consisting of Messrs. W. NJ. Canty,
F. II. Bonn and Rev. C.. ]. Broders, went to
Mobile Saturday to secure the cooperation of
the Commercial Club of that city in bringing
rascagoula to the front as a summer resort
and lumber port. The gentlemen had a con-
ference with committee Of the Mobile 0rgani-
cation, which promises to lay the matter
before the executive committee at their meet
ing on next Monday night. In view Of the
nearness Of Mobile, the distance being but
forty miles to Scranton, those who might wish
to have their families out of the city FOR the
summer and be able at any time to reach them
within m hour on the Louisville and Nash
vile road, which is now to be asked to increase
their facilities so that the Mobile merchants
can arrive in the city in time for business aud
reach their families at such an hour in the
afternoon as would virtually allow them ia
| enjoy all the advantages Of summer resort
and yet be at their desks every day. The
arrangement is no doubt one that will be
appreciated BY the people Of Mobile, who in the
past helped to make Pascagou,a one Of the
leading resorts on the coast. Taking into con.
sidera.ion the advantages Of the place for surf
bathing, a bountiful supply Of fish and oysters
besides the vegetable gardens, which not onl,
supply their own but the market Of New Or,
leans, and a delightful locality m the beach
no more acceptable location could be found to
the purpose Of Il summer resort. II is no id,
dream, then, that at no distant day will b.
seen the revival Of the g%lories Of the past |,
P~ascagoula, and II will become one Of the mos
important of the coast towns, which It's nov
increasing business in lumber entities it t
become.
