A New Railroad Prospected.

Col. Jones, president of the
Gulf & Ship Island, accompa-
MED by General Passenger Agent
Hale, was here a few days since
looking over the country between
here and Hebron, with a view of
extending the Columbia branch
from Columbia by way of Hebron
to this place. He expressed him
self as we'll pleased with the coun-
try through which the road will
traverse, and will in all probabil-
ity build the road if the people
along the route will donate the
right of way. The extension of
the line will open up the finest
section of country in South Mis-
sissippi, and the News considers
that the matter is left entirely
with the people whether or not
they want the road. If so they
should lend the prospect their
hearty cooperation, otherwise it
may never be built. - Simpson

A Tribute to Judge Jeff Truly.

A Clarion-Ledger representa-
tive visited Fayette recently and
has the following, which will be
appreciated by Judge Truly's ma
merous friends in Lincoln:
Judge Jeff Truly, the circuit
Judge of the district, lives at Fay
cite, and is much esteemed by
all citizens. He is a Judge par
excellence, presiding with dignity
and impartiality. He allows no
nonsense in his court room. At
torneys, witnesses and litigants
must be on hand when their case
is ready for trial. He has order
in mis- court room, allows no smok-
ing, talking or noise, and the first
person to violate his rules is sent
to Jail without ceremony, He Is
quick to rule, knows the law,
and prompt to construe and apply
it, and is rarely overruled by the
supreme court. 1t is really re-
freshing to visit Judge Truly's
court, and see the manner in
which he disposes of business.

The Halloween Party.

The Halloween Party at the
residence of +. III. Hartman last
Friday night, was a success in
attendance and entertainment, fl
nancially and socially. Fortunes
were told and made like fairy
tales, that please and pass in the
telling; but for the time being
make life merry GO round.
Mrs. Hartman's spacious and ele-
giant home was effectively deco
rated throughout with evergreens,
and presented a festive and at
tractive appearance. The menu
served was such as one would not
expect, together with all the other
modes of entertainment furnished,
| for the small sum of % cents
and consisted of sandwiches, sal
ads, CONNECTIONS, coffee and choco-
late. Even the brass band added
harmony and delight to the oc-
casion; and if one, through any in
trinity of natural endowment fail
ed to enjoy the music, he could
feast his eyes upon the brilliant
red costumes of the "band boys"
They honored the occasion by
wearing their new uniforms for
the first time, and thus further
distinguished themselves as i'm
portant adjuncts to an evenings
entertainment.
The affair was under the man
agement of the Presbyterian la
dies, who are to be congratulated
upon it's successful issue.
