A Wonderful Cut of.

One hundred and two miles Of track
composing what is known as the og-
den-Lucien cutoff across Great Salt
lake, was formally declared completed
on Nov. 26 and made part of the
Hartman system. 1t cost the South
ern Pacific Railroad Co. thirteen mil
lions of dollars, but it is estimated
that it will result in 4 saving of more
than $1,000 900 yearly in operating e1-
penses, as well as reducing the run
ming time between Ogden and the Pa.
cifc coast by two hours. The cutoff
is l02 miles in length, y miles on
land and 20 miles on trestlework and
filing over the waters of the Great
Salt lake. 1t presents practically
level track. The construction Of this
cutoff was one of the most interesting
engineering feats ever attempted In
the railroad world. In building the
line mountains have been removed and
dumped into the lake until today the
grade extends from shore to shore and
is wide enough for the accommodation
of a double track if necessary. Huge
piles 60 feet long have been driven
into the bed of the lake, spliced four
on top of each other, in order to get
through the false bottom. Beneath
the false bottom Of the lake are hills,
canyons and d.lss that have been
filed with the salt of centuries from
the Bear and Jordan rivers that flow
into the lake. Once the thin upper
crust was cracked, rock weighing
tons slowly sinks, more follows, until
the grade was built to the required
height, and then the rock train moved
on and repeated the operation while
the grade continued steadily to sink.
Forests have been transplanted in the
lake, and for over 8 year seven huge
steam shovels, each lifting FIVE cubic
yards of dirt at dip, were working
night and day loading up the grading
trains that dumped their contents
over either side of the temporary
trestle.

Raitoad Activity.

There has len considerable activ-
ity in railrod matters during the
past week. ehe promoters of the
Tombigbee River Railroad Com
pany have submitted a proposition
10 the citizen of Aberdeen to build
the road via that place providing
the town viii subscribe $4,000 to
the capital sock. This is the line
which was chartered to be built from
Linden, Ala, up the Tombigbee val
ley to Helena, Ark, and from Lin
den southwark to Pensacola, max
ing a gateway from the terminus of
the Gould system at Helena to the
deep water at Pensacola. Aberdeen
is out of a direct line between CO.
lumbus and Helena, and the pro-
moters naturally desire some extra
inducement to build out of direct
route.
The citizens of Columbus have
also been asked by representatives Of
the road to subscribe $4,000 to the
capital stock, and a committee OF
the local business men has been ap-
pointed to look after the matter. 1t
is understood that other towns along
the route will also be asked to make
capital stock subscriptions. The
National Guarantee Company, of
Chicago, is looking after the finan-
cial details for the system.
Work has. been resumed on the
Belzoni branch of the Yazoo & Mis-
sissippi Valley road from Belzoni,
which was interrupted by the over
flow in the delta, and the company
expects to have the line completed
in time to handle the seasons cotton
crop. This road will be quite an
addition to the already splendid ia
cilities of that system in the delta.
The branch line of the Illinois
Central to Monticello is showing
good progress, as is also the new
branch of the Gulf and Ship Island
from Mendenhall to Columbia.
None of the new roads recently in
corporated have made any move
ments of public interest during the
past ten days. The indications are
that the electric road to connect the
gulf coast towns is a certainty, and
there is much probability of an in
ter-urban electric belt line from
Jackson to Clinton, Cooper's Wells
and RAYMOND

University Normal.

Chancellor Fulton, of the Univer-
sity of Mississippi, announces that
fully six hundred teachers will at
tend the university summer term,
which opens on the 10th of June
for session of six weeks, and the
session promises to be the most not
able educational event that has TAX
en- place in the State for a good
while. The ablest educators and
lecturers in the United States have
been engaged to deliver lectures and
special courses of training for the
teachers, and the citizens of Oxford
are making special arrangements to
care for the visitors.

Appointed a Neuro.

Mississippi is threatened with an
other postofice controversy. A ne
gro has been appointed postmaster
at Goza, in Copiah county, and the
patrons of the office are ordering
their mail sent to Barlow office, de-
claring that they viii not patronize
the Coca office while the negro is
in charge. GOA is located in beat
No. 5 of Copiah county, neigh
borhood where the citizens have a
reputation for occasionally taking
matters into their own hands, and
if the negro attempts TO serve he is
likely to meet with a warm recep-
ton. 1t is likely that the Office will
be closed, as none of the citizens
will patronize the place.

Crops Belated.

Planting operations in Bolivar
county are several weeks behind the
average, but there is yet a fair
chance for a good crop, as the delta
has never yet experienced a total
failure. The acreage in cotton all
over the county is about the same
as last year. On some of the larger
plantations, however, some of the
land will go uncultivated, as the
high water delayed operations to
some extent, but this will be offset
bv the new land which will be
brought .te pillow for the first
time.
On account of the delay some Of
the planters have planted quick
groth variety of cotton, while others
have preferred to use the same kind
as they did last season.
The labor question continues to
be "a thorn in the flesh" of delta
planters, and while most of the
planters will be able to get through
with their present amount of labor,
still the supply is totally inadequate
for the demand, and there is hardly
large planter in the county that
could not use very proftably num-
Der of additional families.

Cotton Planters Alarmed.

Considerable apprehension exists
among the cotton planters of Missis-
sippi that the Mexican boil weevil
will make its appearance in the
State this year.
Last season The boil weevil ap-
peared in several counties and
caused widespread destruction. The
visitation was not general, but IN
localities where the bug got in his
work the result was disastrous, and
the fear is prevalent that the State
is becoming more and more infested
with the pest each year, and the
planters are conjuring up pictures
of bhghted fields and ruined pros
poets. The career of the boil weevil
in Texas doubtless caused much of
this apprehension.
The cotton crop has been making
excellent progress in nearly all parts
of Mississippi during the past week.
In the extreme northeastern section
there is still much complaint of the
lack of rain, but in other sections
where there was a good description
a week or so ago, the hot weather
is bringing up the stands in fine
shape, and the chief battle for the
next few weeks will be with the
weeds.
The corn crop is also doing fairly
we'll, although indications do not
point to a larger yield than that of
last year. even with continuance
of favorable conditions, as there has
been but little increase in the acre

Negro KILLED..

Cairo, H., May 31.-As climax to
the Memorial day celebration here
William Crutchfeld, colored, was shot
at midnight last night and died of his
injuries. The shooting was the result
of race trouble. An excursion train
from Jackson, Tenn, was about to re-
turn. when a number of negroes tried
to enter the car set apart for white
passengers. They were elected, and
then stoned the car, smashing the
windows and injuring some of the pas
sengers. AS the train started to move
out someone fired from within ths
car. and Crntchfield fell.

Killed by Cyclone.

Welsh, La, May 31.-At 6 O'Clock
last night a cyclone started about
three miles south of here and swept
everything before it for distance OF
two miles. The two-story house OF
s. e. Carroll, a wealthy farmer. with
all the outbuildings aid barns, was
completely wrecked. Ed Burgess, q
hired man, who came from Crystal
River. Fla, was killed and Carroll and
his wife seriously injured. Their
daughter was slightly injured. 1t is
reported that two white men and a
negro were killed by lightning west OF
this place.

To Exhibit the Levees.

Favorable impression has been
made by the suggestion that the
Mississippi levees should be exhib-
ited.at the st. Louis Exposition on
canvass about thirty feet long,
making a complete showing of the
river protection on the Mississippi
side from the Tennessee line to the
Natchez bluffs. Very few people in
the United States realize the enor-
nifty of the Mississippi levee system,
and such an exhibit would be highly
instructive. A similar plan has al
ready been adopted by Louisiana.
1t is also likely that large map
will be made of the Mississippi Gulf
coast, showing the harbors at Gulf
port, Biloxi and Pascagoula.

Crop Outlook Gloomy.

Coffeeville, Miss, June 1.-After
one or two failures in attempting to
secure a stand, farmers have at last
succeeded in getting the cotton up.
On account of the late spring. fol-
lowed by drouth, crops are about thir-
ty days late, and not over 80 per cent
of stand has even now been Sc
cured. The outlook is rather gloomy,
but with good seasons from now on
a full crop will be made. Crops
are being worked rapidly. About the
same amount of cotton has been plant
ed as last year.

Would Not sina for Him.

Hoboken, N. j., June Richard
Smith. the only negro choir boy OF
the Holy Innocent Episcopal Church
here, died today, aged 16 years. the
funeral will take place from the Holy
Innocent Church on Wednesday, but
despite the boys dying wish, the
choir of which he was member Will
take no part, as it struck recently
owing to a disagreement with the
Rev. Father Magill, the pastor. The
dead boys parents made a pitiful ap-
peal to the members of the choir to-
day to sing at their sons funeral, but
they refused.
