The Pascagoula democrat-star. (Pascagoula, Miss.) 1878-1920, 1899-02-17

On Saturday light Old Boreas came
bowling down from the north, taking
the oldest inhabitants Of the Gulf
Coast by surprise and unprepared.
After q week OF murky, war; weather
with,.he temperature up to about 20,
and many Of the fruit trees In full
bloom, the thermometer during Sat
urday night dropped to about 10 de.
grees aboye zero or % below freezing
point. Sunday morning there was a
hard crust OF frozen sleet and snow
covering the ground, embracing every
thing in an Icy grasp.
At the mouth Of the Pascag0ula
river a lot Of pelicans and smaller
water fowls were found with
their bills under their wings frozen to
dcatli.s A mile north, Krebs lake
and It's bayous were frozen over,
YazoO lake, near the mouth OF the
river, was also frozen over, aff0rding
good skating, so rare in this latitude.
Pascagoula bay for aQuarter OF Il mile
from shore was frozen to the ground,
killing thousands OF fishes. For the
tlrst time in the history OF The Gulf
Coast bayou Graveline, emptying in
to the West ~Pascagoula river was one
continuous mass Of ice several inches
thick. 1t has a depth of twenty-nine
feet. Several boxes Of soda water
and pop besides numerous bottles and
jars Of other liquids were destroyed
by the cold, even near hot stoves ice
formed in water pitchers and bowls
inside OF houses.
Flower gardens, but a few days ago
presenting beautiful sights, were
ruined.
The Pascagoula democrat-star. (Pascagoula, Miss.) 1878-1920, 1899-02-17
THAT MOSS POINT RAILROAD.

There is a good prospect OF securing
for Ellisville railroad that will in.
sure her prestige for a long time yet
to come. We refer to the projected
line from Moss Point to this city, a
distance OF something over a hundred
miles. The inhabitants OF the inter.
vening territory are anxious for its
development, so that the right OF way
could be arranged for with ease, and
all that is needed to crown the enter
prise with success is a combined, pub.
lie spirited effort on the part Of the
people in the two towns which would
form the two terminals OF the
road.
The Importance Of the influence
that such "A line would exert 0vcr the
future Of Ellisville cannot be Over.es-
timated. 1t is conceded that while
the timber lasted. the logging trade
would make the operation OF the road
profitable. but it is objected by the
enemies OF the enterprise that when
the lumber Is gone the usefulness OF
the road will be over. No greater
mistake can be made. When the logs
are gone the land will remain to yieId
tn tile hand Of the skilled farmer a
better, steadier profit than IL ever
to the timber Spectator.
[Ellisyille New South.
What do our Moss Point citizens
think Of the above proposition:
Would it pay to extend the Moss
Point and Pascagoula Railroad to
Ellisyillc. We think 1t would.

We were offered as a supplement
free OF charge the speeches OF Nc.
Laurin and Murray Smith at Meri-
dian. We rejected the proposition
because we are not caring q cent
about either OF the gentlemen and do
not propose to advertise their politi.
cal aspirations for less than $15. OO
per nd. 1t was a very slick scheme
Tor getting a slice OF free advertising.
The ready print folks would have
made a small pile out OF the scheme,
but we are not carrying such litera-
ture free.-Prentiss Plaindealer.
We are glad to know that some OF
the brethren Of the State press had
the manliness to reject the PROPOSE,
tion to do Stree advertising" for the
politicians. The Plaindealer stands
by the DEMocRAT-STAR in keeping up
prices OF advertising, etc.
