Fairgrounds For the BOYS.

Editor Morning News; The Morning
News of to-day contains a suggestion
rom "A minister having charge of one
Of the churches in the southern section of
the city," that the Park extension be
given the boys as a suitable place for
The playing of base ball. The suggestion
does not please all property owners with
homes fronting the Park extension.
'hough no one doubts the sincerity OF any
minister for the welfare of all boys.

player, and no boy will be offended When

TALK OF THE CUT OFF.
A Growing Belief Tint the Central
VIII shorten It's Route.

There is a growing belief that the Cen
trail of Georgia Railway Company is going
to build a cutoff for the purpose of Sc
curing a shorter route between Macon
and Savannah, by using the portion OF
the old Atlantic Short Line railroad which
was constructed, now known under its
new charter as the Bruton and Pineora
railroad.
About twenty-elght miles of this line
arc already constructed from Bruton TO a
point within four miles of Stillmore, and
by building an extension In one direction
20 point on the Central such as Oconee
or Mcintyre and then extending the line
In the other direction to Pineora, the dis
lance between Macon and Savannah
would be shortened by about thirty or
thlrty-fiye miles.
The work would in all probability be
dono by the Bruton and Pineora Railroad
Company, IN case it has been fully deter
mined TO make the change, which is now
looked upon as a decided probability. En-
gineer Connolly is now in that section
making preliminary survey Of the prop
erty at the request Of President A. II.
DAILY of tue Bruton and Pineora Railroad
Company. 70 whom he will make a report
as stated by President III. M. Conner OF the
Central OF Georgia Railway Company.
Should such an extension be made Il is
likely that the northwest terminus Of the
extension would be Oconee or a point near
there. for the purpose OF avoiding the con-
struction of a bridge across the Oconee
river, which would be rather expensive.
II is not known yet just what will be done.
but the most reasonable supposition seems
to be that the cut on will be built as
stated.
