Sheep are fast taking the place of cattle on the ranges in the extreme north part of the territory. Where once the thousand hills were dotted with varigated bovines, now the docile wool bearers graze in immense hocks. Stockmen have come to the realization that the conditions which prevail in that region are much better adapted to sheep raising than cattle raising.

We hear that some of the young folks of our neighborIng town Of Concho in- dulged in an impromptu race while coming over to attend the conference, last Saturday. It seems that there was great disparity in the appearance of the two teams which were pftted against each other. At any rate, the poor team proved to be the swifter. Probably one reason for the defeat of the best look ing team may have been that it drew too great a load of loveliness in the shape of bevy of exceedingly pretty girls, and was also heavily handicapped by an outrageously homely driver.

Quite a good audience were in attend ance at the performance of ''Ingomar, the Barbarian," at Assembly hall, last Saturday evening. The play was a repetition of the previous occasion of a week before, and the members of the dramatic association rendered their diff ferent parts in the same excellent man. ner. If we were disposed to criticize the Dramatic association, we would say that they do not give an entertainment often enough. There is plenty of talent among the members of the association, and if these entertainments were of more frequent occurrence, each indi- vidual would be vastly benefited. Of course, this would entail some pretty hard work upon some of the members, but excellence can be attained in no other manner. We hope to announce another entertainment by this associa- tion in the near future.

The last of the freight that was in the
wreck day before yesterday afternoon at
Meldrim and the rolling stock that was
damaged was brought into Savannah yes
terday afternoon over the Central and the
track is now clear of all the debris Of the
wreck
In yesterdays Morning News was an ac-
count of the wreck. which was caused by
a collision between two freight trains at
Meldrim Nobody was hurt, but several
cars were damaged, two or three of them
considerably. There was only one ins lance
of a regular smashup. and this was suf-
fered by a fat loaded with gravel The
engine that coEided with the rearmost car
of the other train was not damaged more
than to the extent Of $50, an official of the
Central said, the principal injury being
the wreck Of the pilot
The cause of the accident has not yet
been determined. An investigation will be
held in a day or two, when the blame IL
there is any TO be attached, will be fixed
upon whoever may have been at fault
The crews of the trains win be examined
when the superintendent goes into the his
tory of the collision.
The two freights each had about fifty
cars. most of which were loaded with
cotton, pig iron and gravel The freight
was, therefore, not Of a character to suffer
from the wreck. The train that collided
ran into the other while it was at
standstin 1t had stopped just the other
side of Guyton at the water tank for the

that ran into it was also coming from
Macon. but il was not running at very
high rate Of speed at the time Of the col
lision. Its momentum was TOO great for
IL to be stopped. 1t was a very heavy
train. and IL scattered things pretty gener-
ally when il struck, The cars Of each
train were about equally damaged.
The accident occurred al 1870 O'Clock

agreed that it would be difficult to find
one more agile in responding to Mayor
Meldrims call than Cohen. Whether
standing in readiness, or doing peacefully
in chair, he is not only prompt getting
into the Mayors office, but his move
ments border on what the sprinters term

ing to the wishes of Council. and to beat
Cohens record will require a runner not
only active and quick in responding to
bells, but who has more or less knowledge
of politics. Thus far none have announced
their intention Of arraying themselves
against him, and there is a probability he
will be retained in his present position
There has been some talk about making
the messenger an appointive and not an
elective officer, in which event the posi-
ton would likely be filed by an appoint
ment by the clerk of Council 1t
seems this has assumed no tangible shape,
however, and il is probable there will be
no effort in this direction.
