The free press. (Poplarville, Miss.) 1890-19??, 1900-03-29


Aside from the excellent training
in ease of bearing and in logical
thought and expression, which is
gained through the practice of debate
ing, the increasing enthusiasm for these
intellectual contests in the colleges
throughout the country is to be en-
couraged, because of the tendency to
select for debate some subject of vital
and timely interest, rather than one
whichis purely technical or historical.
This tendency is of special Importance
for the reason that college life offers
so few incentives to q healthy interest
in the outside world. Many sub; ects
of present public interest are threshed
out by the innumerable debating clubs
and class teams. 1t can scarcely be
doubted that the thought and discus
sion stimulated by these debates,
which hold such an important place in
the college world, will have distinct
ly broadening influence

The fast mail on the Atlanta & West

seriously.

The wreck is believed to have been
caused by spreading rails. The train
was the through fast mail from
Washington to New Orleans and left
Atlanta about thirty minutes late.
1t was drawn by one of the mammoth
new engines recently acquired by the
road, and Engineer McWaters was
reeling off the miles at rate of about
forty to the hour when the accident
occurred, The tender separated from
the engine, and, with the baggage
and mail cars and the combination
coach, left the track and rolled down
IN embankment. The day coach
was derailed, but the Washington
sleeper did not leave the rails.
