chased his new outfit; consequently he

formerly engaged in the railroad business
in Kansas City and has a large number
of friends among the commercial and

as the Pfeister tables and which are
known to be the highest grade pool and
billiard tables manufactured in the world.
The word "Pfeister' derived it's name
from the hall at Milwaukee, where the
first ia BILE of this kind was located.

throwing off impurities which irritate

Captain Jones Enterprise.

Captain Joseph T. Jones, of thu:
city, who Is known as the "Missls
sippi Railroad King" has returned
to his home after an extended alb
sence In the South, where he has
been giving personal attention to
his mammoth enterprises. Ar
interview which he accorded to q
representative of the Times, and
which was published In this paper
yesterday, makes interesting read
Ing, and shows how fast the indus
trial resources and transportation
facilities of the South are growing.
Captain Jones Is enthusiastic
over the natural resources of Mis-
sissippl, and cities as one instance
the fact that his road, the Gulf &
Ship Island railroad, has I28 saw
mills on Its line, with an average
output of 1000, 900 feet per day.
He also says that the State will
this year break all former re-
cords for crops of cotton and corn.
Besides these agricultural and man
ufacturing facilities, he declares
that the climate Is peculiarly fitted
for a health resort; so confirmed Is
he In this belief that he has built
an enormous hotel at Gulfport,
which, he says, makes magnif'
cent winter resort because 1t never is
damp or foggy there. And, strange
to say, 1t Is but "a hours ride from
Chicago or Cincinnati.
1t Is evident that Captain Jones
Is one of those men who backs his
convictions with bis personal ser.
vices and with his money. His en-.
terprlse Is most commendable, and
worthy of all success; yet we can
not help wishing that some of 1t
might be expended for the benefit
of Buffalo; a few such men as he,
devoting their effolts to the better.
ment of local conditions here,
would benefit Buffalo immeasurably
Perhaps be has been dissuaded
from local enterprise by the want
of local encouragement. There Is
more than one progressive citizen
of this community who has met
such gre ting when trying to ben.
