jackson, Dec. 26-The value of
the mum 3rous railroad franchi ,es Sc
cured within the past two years by
individuals without sufficient finan-
#cial backing to carry out the pro-
posed enterprises, is illustrated by
Tho sale Of the charter of the Pensa-
cola, Meridian and Northwestern
railroad to the Memphis and Cult
road, which has just been consum-
mated. 1t is understood that a good
sized sum was paid for the charter,
and the sale is authorized in an
amendment which has just been ap-
proved by the governor. There is
every indication that the Memphis
and Gulf road means business and
will shortly commence construction
southwark from Memphis through
Mississippi. Owing to the numerous
charters that have been issued for
parallel lines every move on the rail-
road chess board is being earnestly
watched, and at preeent it seems to be
a game Of s.checkmating between the

QUIET CHRISTMAS FESTIVITIES
Celebration Throughout State IN
Keeping with the Days Signifl-
canoe.
Special to the Daily Progress.

jackson, Dec. 26. 26.-Christmas day
passed off very quietly in Mississippi.
The number of catastrophes and casu
alties was somewhat smaller than
usual, and the day seems to have
been observed in very orderly man
ner throughout the state. Perhaps
the most notable feature of the great
holiday was the largely increased
trade enjoyed by the merchants.
The high price of cotton has placed
an abundance of ready money In
the pockets of the people, and they
have been spending it with "a lavish
hand. 1t is estimated that the Christ
mas trade was fully thirty-five per
cent in excess of that of last year, and
in some communities the increase is
placed as high as fly per cent. The
state was never more prosperous than
at present. and financial plenty con-
tribused largely to the holiday spirit.
An infaliible indication of the extent
of Christmas observance was the large
increase in holiday travel. No less
than twenty-five thousand passengers
were handled through the jackson
gateways during the week, and the
railroads have nothing to complain
of, for their business exceeded the
most sanguine expectations. The
poor were literally provided for.
Bountiful gifts were showered upon
the poverty-stricken and few appe-
tites were allowed to go hungry IN
this commonwealth. Tie orphanage
institutions we're deluged with pres
ents and cash contributions, and the
various benevolent and charitable or
yanizations distributed gifts with a
lavish hand. Largely ON account OF
the unfavorable weather, very few
people were on the streets of jackson
during the day. There was the usual
large crowd at the postoffice during
the morning hours, and steady
stream of packages was handed
through the carrier windows. Two
church services were held. At St.
Andrews Episcopal church a special
program of Christmas music was rem
dered, the new organ being used for
the flrst time, and a mastery sermon
was delivered by Bishop Theodore
Bratton. Three mass services were
held at st. Peters Catholic church.
All of the Sunday schools had Christ
mas tree celebrations. The state
house was closed throughout the day
and no public business of any kind
was transacted. The banking insti-
tusions we're al 30 closed and will not
open again until Monday The daily
papezs suspended publication for tbs
day.

pageant promises to be more imposing
this year than ever before, and will
be conducted on a largely increased
scale.

If an attempt is made in the COM
ing legislature to move the confeder-
ate monument from the old to the new
state house grounds and it has been
proposed, lively fight will follow, as
the confederate veterans seem almost
unanimously opposed to it. ard sew
eral local camps have RECENTLY passed
resolutions and adopted memorials to
the legislature prohibiting against
such action.
