Believed that Road is Con-
tempIating Building
Connecting Link
FROM NICHOLS TO BUSHNELL
The 3. B. Now Uses Track of the
A. 6 3. Over This Route and the
Arrangement is Not satisfact-
ory by Any Means.

There is something doing in B. & B.
circles, but just what it is cannot be
learned at present. The owners of the
road are figuring on something, and
something big right about now, but to
get at the bottom Of the plan is i'm
possible.
However, from what a News man
can gather, it is believed the road is
contemplating building a line from
Bushnell to Nichols, which will con-
meet their lines at both ends. This
is the line of the road over which the
track of the Atlantic and Birmingham
is used at present.
The difference existing between the
two lines, the complaint filed by the
people of Douglas against the arrange
ment between the roads and the al
together unsatisfactory agreement
is believed to- have been taken up by
the directors of the road, and there is
but one decision for them to reach-to
build a line of their own through the
territory over which they use the A. &
B. tracks.
Local officials of the line seem to
know nothing OF what is contemplated
and are as mum as clans on the sub
iect, but that the building Of this
connecting link is being considered
there can be no doubt
The present arrangement between
the B. & B. and the A. & B. works
hardship cn the local road 1t is
not allowed to haul either passen-
gers or freight from any point on the

and the ease will be heard ON its mer-
it's next week
1t will cost many thousands OF dol
lars to build the connecting link, still
it is absolutely necessary that the b.
& B. have it sooner or later, and it is
the general opinion that the owners of
the road are now figuring ON com
mencing the work.

lowed an ounce of laudanum at the
hotel Radnor here today.
She lived but few hours and in her
dying moments told of letters in a
bureau drawer. These letters, address
sed to one time friends, told a pitiful
story Of the woman's one time happy
life, of real on fancied neglect of
"a son who is in the navy, and the
struggle against poverty and the raw
ages of a nervous malady which in
the end broke her spirit.
She was married in Atlanta but
went to Washington after the death
of her husband, later going to Phila-

TIDE SwAMpED THEIR BOAT

The presence OF mind OF willard and

ON the part OF can factory employees
prevented double drowning yester-

on the river IN small skin and on
their return put In at Leathers' yards.
The ebbing tide was running like a
mill race and the boys lost control OF
their ooat. which was carried swiftly
towards the eastern end OF the can
factory dock. The skin went broad
side into the piling and II seemed to the
anxious onlookers that II would surely
capsize. The boys following instruc-
tions shouted by men on neighboring
docks, seated themselves on the edge of
the boat. thus keeping II almost on an
even keel. Lines were provided and
the boys hauled TO the wharf. Their
escape was a narrow one and a sigh Of
relief went up from the crowd when the
boys we're finally rescued. The boat
swamped and was not recovered.
