ment with Senator Dietrich by which
the former WAS to pay in property

NEW JONESBORO DEPOT.
Frisco and Cotton Belt Start Joint
$4,000 Structure.

$4,000 Structure.
The finest passenger depot on the
Frisco system between Memphis and
Fort. Scott, Kan. and the finest on
the Cotton Belt route in the state Of
Arkansas, is being constructed at
Jonesboro. 1t is union station for
the two roads. and is being erected
at Jonesboro. where the main lines
OF the two roads cross. The new de-
pot was commenced last week. when
the first of the foundations were laid,
1t will be completed and in use before
the summer is over. A ST. Louis con-
tracing company is doing the work,
which is being paid for jointly by the
Frisco and Cotton Belt
The new depot. when completed will
have cost approximately 10000. 1t
will be only one story high, as it will
be used exclusively for passengers. 1t
will be very commodious. though, COW
erng large area of ground and hav-
ing ample shed facilities attached.
The exterior will be Of pressed brick
with stone trimmings The interior
will be finished in hard wood, with tile
floors and frescoed walls.
The interior arrangement will con-
tain white and colored waiting rooms,
ticket office, telegraph office, baggage
and express room. kitchen. dining
room and lunch counter. The building
will be adjacent to the tracks of both
roads. being in one of the angles form
ed by the crossing and with plat
forms facing both roads.
When the new depot is completed,
Jonesboro will be the most important
meal station on the Frisco between
Memphis and Springfield and on the
Cotton belt between Cairo and Tex
arkana. Trains On both roads that
do not carry dining cars will have
meal stops at Jonesboro. The town is
one of almost 5000 population. and is
rapidly growing The new depot will
replace an old and inferior one that
was destroyed by fire several months
ago.
