selma's New Buildings.

The work on the new Dallas court house and the new Church Street Metho- dist Church Is progressing rapidly and both buildings will be completed the first part of next year. At present large force of hands are working hard on both structures The workmen on the court house are both ready to put down the flooring and will begin putting it down as soon as the steam pipes for the heat ing of the building have been completed, which will be in about two weeks. The tall cupola of the court house which was burned one night last summer has been rebuilt and is now nearly covered and can be seen from any part of the city. It enhances the appearance of the building considerably. When Dallas coun- tvs new temple of justice has been com pleted it will be one of the most modern and complete court houses in the State,
 The work on the new Methodist Church is being pushed forward as rapidly as 1t can be and the contractors think that they will be able to turn the church over to the congregation by the first of April. When the building Is completed 1t will be one of the prettiest houses of worship in the State.
 The contractors who were to build the new Baptist Church on the lot at the corner of Church and Dallas Streets have thrown up the contract and work upon that building has been stopped for abop- six weeks. The Building Committee of the church has now about closed the contract for the completion of the build- ing with another contractor and hopes to have the work started again on the building soon after the holidays.

NEW RAILROADS IN THE SOUTH
Gould Will Build from St. Louis to
 New Orleans.

New York. Dec 12.-George J. Gould, with Mrs Gould has just returned from a tour of the railroads embraced in the Could system-a tour divided into two sections, and lasting about two months, broken only by a flying visit to New York and covering practically the entire country. from Utah to Texas Mir. Gould returns in an even more optimistic frame of mind than when he finished his big
 tour last spring. MT. Gould was asked if he were willing to state at this time
 whether he intended to carry out the rumored plan of a transcontinental rail- road. with the Missouri Pacific. Denver & Rio Grande. Rio Grande & Western main links in the chain.
 Mir. Gould. We are working very har- moniously with our allied railroad con- nections the Central Pacific being one of them"
 Then Mir Gould gave this inkling of his plans of extending his network of rail- roads in the South:
 We are contemplating a line from Ar kansas City south to Lake Providence. in Louisiana. In fact 1t Is under consider | alton. The Texas & Pacific line Is to be rebuilt and extended So that it will form a through line along the west bank of the Mississippi river between New Or leans and St. Louis. The improvement will include also the rebuilding Of the | New Orleans Northwestern Railroad The new line runs through a beautiful cotton country, and at present. there IS | no line to serve 1t. The country is entlre- | ly tributary to the Iron Mountain sys, tenn, hence the construction Of brancnes'

WILL WRITE HISTORY
COLONEL PoRTIs COLLECTING
 DATA OF THE 42ND ALABAMA.
The Gallant Old Man Commanded the Regiment Throughout the Civil War-Work on Selma's
 New Buildings.
Advertiser Bureau,

AQVcrtlser Bureau,
 Selma, Dec. F.
 One of Selma's honored visitors today was Col. John w. .Portis of Suggsville, Ala, who is in the city for few days the guest of his daughter-in-law. Mrs. w. M. Portis, on Church Street. Colonel Portis was a gallant soldier in the war between the States. He served through the entire conflict and was wounded sev- eral times. He was in command of the Regiment bravely through the entire war. Regiment bravely thrsug hthe entire war. For several days past Colonel Portis has been in Montgomery where he has been looking through the archives of the Department of History of the State and getting all the data and notes that tkere was in that department concerning the Rnd Alabama Regiment. In talking today Colonel Portis said that he had not yet succeeded in getting all the infcrma- tic n that he wanted, but that he would pro bably get it all together in about a year from now when he thought that he would then write complete history of that regiment. If Colonel Portis succeers in getting all of the information that he desires and writes the history of hls regi- n ent, 1t will be eagerly sought after by the old veterans.
