 Tho Kind That Will Again Draw
 Thoughtful Men to the Churches. Chicago Inter-Ocean
 m eoomplaint is general that intelligent and thoughtful men do not support the church as they once did. Not that there is any failure of material support. With their money such men were never more generous than now. Hut not so large proportion of them as form erIy give the church the moral support of 1heir presence at its services.
 Take the average church the year through, and the majority of It's attendants women and children. There is no doubt of the fact, lie worship do not attend it. Their wives and ohildr9n are there. but they themselves arc esteA elsewhere. Why? That is what the pull pit is Always asking. Why7

It looks as if the Central Railroad will not only get into Pensacola but will en- croach on Louisville and Nashville terri tory again by going to Mobile. A Pensa. cola paper says:
 "The Inland Harbor Company. which was recently incorporated under the laws of New Jersey. with capital stock of $5,- OCOOO0, has purchased the entire plant, land and log road of the Skinner Manu- featuring Company. ten miles east of Pensacola. The property includes more than 100000 acres of the best tract re- maining in this section of the State.
 It is said that the land company con templates an extension of the log road to Andalusia, Ala, connecting with the Gen. tral of Georgia, and bringing the latter into Pensacola. Only about forty miles of road bed is necessary to form this con meeting link Plans of this extension al- ready have been drawn.
 '1t is also stated the company will build from Pensacola to Mobile, leasing the road to the Central of Georgia.

Railroad Man Found Pocketbook Containing $990 Which Was Claimed by Traveler--News
 of the Railroads.

The increase fin the passenger traffic on the Mobile and Montgomery division of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad is unprecedented.
 For October of this year over the same month last year the business has nearly doubled. Train No. which leaves Mont gomery at u:15 a. m. earned over $500 more than a year ago, the average earn ings of all the passenger trains on the division being more than $50. The in- crease in the passenger earnings of the trains on the Alabama and Florida di- vision is big thing for local merchants, as 1t shows that Montgomery is rapidly increasing its trade with the people of that section of the country.

Passenger Found His Moaev.

One of the happiest men seen about the union railway station in a long time was a travelling man from Philadelphia yes terday morning. He reached Montgomery on a Western Railroad train and while waiting for the Southern connection to be transferred to the Louisville and Nash. vilie for New Orleans he' was walking up ! and down the platform to stretch his legs. good sized crowd was waiting for the Louisville and Nashville southbound train and special agent Paul Rapport of the Louisville and Nashville caught sight of . pocketbook lying on the platform and picking 1t up handed 1t to Station Master McRae.
 The travelling man had climbed back into, his Pullman car by this time but sud- denly he jumped to the platform as if he was pursued. Rushing to MT. McRae he excitedly said that he had dropped his pocketbook somewhere, with $99O in 1t. Taking 1t out of his pocket the station master handed 1t to the drummer and asked him to see if 1t was all right He opened it and counted out nine $100 bills i and 80 in greenbacks and small change He overwhelmed Mir. McRae with pro- fuse. thanks.

The deaf-adder Of st. Augustine who
stopped one ear with his tail and press
ed the other into the dust might take
notes in tactics from his up-to-date
namesake. Eleven men recently made
a three hours trip in the new sub
marine torpedo boat; they travelled tif-
teen miles an hour, eighteen feet I'M
der the water, without once coming to
the surface. The captain steered by
the compass and timed the turns of
the boat by his watch. The Adder was
deaf to all noise but its own electric
motor, and blind to objects ten feet
away in the green water. 1t could
come to the surface, however, at any
moment. to hear. see, and do deadly
work with its arms. Two Of the seven
submarine torpedo boats, nearing COM
pletion, will probably be assigned for
the defense of Washington. Annapolis,
Baltimore and neighboring seaports.
