A NEW DEPOT.
There is Talk of One Being Built In
Columbia.

There is Talk of One Being Built In
Columbia.
The rumor is afloat in railroad cir
cles that an elegant new union depot
will be built in Columbia in the not
far distant future. What truth there
is in the rumOr, future events will
demonstrate; there have been sew
eral such rumors started during the
past few years, however, and all of
them ended with nothing being
done. 1t cannot be that the business
done at this place does not warrant
the building of new depot, as the
amount of money drawn from Col.
umbia by the railroads is enormous
and the business keeps steadily on
the increase. A town the size OF
Columbia ought to have a nicer
depot, and it is to be hoped that this
rumor will end in the erection OF
one,

Discussion of Incorporation in the Com
mittee is Lively One.
Thursdays American says:
THE Joint Committee on Munic-
ipal Affairs of the Legislature met
at the Tulane Hotel last night and
heard arguments on the bill to in
corporate the town of Mount Pleas
ant, in Maury county. There were
about twenty citizens of the place in
attendance to pull for and against
the bill. No greater excitement
could have been raised had an at
tempt been made to change the name
of Arkansas.
THE chief objections to the bill
were that it would allow whisky to
be sold in the place; that it would
take in great deal of the property
of some of the phosphate companies
and give the negro and the worth
less population of the place the con-
trolling power in the city elections.
The arguments for the bill were that
whisky was being sold in the town
anyway, being brought from Column
bia, and that some municipal regu,

miners in check.

Messrs. Wheeler, Killebrew anC
Fleming spoke against it. Person
alities were used freely, and the ar

gentlemen.

Indians and Monkeys Eat Soap.

When Colonel Richard I. Dodge
was in command of one of the
Southern Kansas forts, many years
ago, he was astonished one day to
receive q delegation of Indians who
complained to him Of the quality Of
the soap issued to them by the gov
eminent. Thinking it would be i'm.
possible to make soap too bad for an
Indian, Dodge Investigated. with the
result Of finding that the tribe had
been eating their soap allowance and
didn't like the taste. All of which
il brought to memory by q letts,
from one Of the Kansas boys in the
Philippines. He says that many Of
the soldiers have bought monkeys
which they keep about the barracks
and adds that they are an awful nuts
ance because they steal and eat the
soap.
