 There is quite a little dissatisfaction felt among number of the merchants and business men on Center street over the attitude of some of the other mer- chants in regard to the proposed agree nlent for the payment for the sprink- ling cart, which is sadly needed on that as well as other streets. Most of the interested persons are ready and will ing to pay the small sum asked-twen- ty-f1ve cents week-while a few are not as ready to do so, and, in fact, will not agree to the plan; and in conse- quence the sprinkling cart has not as yet made it's appearance. J. A. Cook is ready to set the cart in operation when he can see that the ones most benefited are agreed upon the question of ex- pense, and he has guarantee that the money will be forthcoming, but until that question is settled the sprinkler will not do it's work on the street in question.

Virginia's Hunting Laws.

the Editor OF Inc Evening STAR:
From recent interviews which have
had and from the letters lately published
in The Evening Star upon the subject. it
appears that there is considerable ignorance
among the sportsmen of Washington re-
gardng the provisions of recent acts of
the legislature of Virginia concerning the
hunting and killing or game in that state.
particularly in regard to the license fea-
ture. I have recently carefully examined
these acts and find that the law as first
enacted made it mandatory upon all nom
residents of the state to procure license.
the cost of which, for the hunting of small
game, was fixed at $40. Subsequently an
amendatory act was passed which permits
a nonresident. as the bona fide guest of II
resident landholder of the state, to hunt
and kill game, without license, on the prem
Uses of said landholder. provided there be no
pecuniary consideration given. Nor can he
hunt on land other than that owned by the
person whose guest he may be. The law.
while faulty and ambiguous in Its terms, is
a long step in the right direction, and |.
and trust all other true sportsmen, shalt
hope to see it enforced. r. b. TULEY.

HOLY GHOST AND US SOCIETY.

The Rev. N. H. Hartman, who has been
one of the co-workers of the Rev. Frank W.
Sanford of the Holy Ghost and Us Society

TO SETTLE IN THE SOUTH.
French Canadian Colony to Be Estab-
lished in South Carolina.

The efforts of the Southern railway to de-
velOp the south by inducing immigration
are being doubly rewarded and are attract
ing widespread attention. For several
years the company has been making a
special effort to attract to the southern
states a desirable class Of French Canadi-
ans and Germans. This work requires a
great amount Of time. as much labor and
an abundant supply Of patience. For this
reason, it Is a discOuraging task and can be
accomplished only by incessant work
Several months ago party OF French
Canadian farmers. under the direction OF
Mr.. M. V. Richards land and Industrial
agent of the railway, who has charge of the
colonization movement, took an extended
trip through the southern states with q
view of permanently locating In that sec
ton. They were so much pleased with the
country that they Immediately decided to
take steps to obtain large tract of land.
This they found at Summerville, Dorchester
county. s. c., about twenty-five miles from
Charleston. There are several thousands
Of acres in the tract. 1t will be divided into
farms of 50 to 100 acres
These Canadians now live in Quebec and
Massachusetts, and are an economical and
thrifty people. About fifty families have
arranged to establish the first settlement at
Summerville within very short time.
When the settlement becomes reality the
Canadians will engage in farming, stock
and fruit raising. A church and a school
for the use of the immigrants are now in
the course of erection at Summerville.
The movement to induce French Canadi-
an and German immigration was inaugu-
rated by the Southern railway several
years ago. A great amount of literature,
printed in French and English on THE
Agricultural Possibilities of the South was
circulated through Ontario and Quebec.
Upon investigation the Canadians found
that the land in the south was well located,
and that it can produce a greater variety of
products than the farms of the north. They
were also favorably impressed with the
facilities of transportation.
In order that the entire world Iaight be-
come acquainted with the development of
the south, the Southern railway made an
exhibit of the products OF the southern
states at the Paris exposition in 1900 This
exhibit aroused the interest of all who
visited the exposition. The company is in
receipt of various letters from France and
Germany inquiring as to the south and the
United States generally. 1t Is expected
that a party of French and German farm
ers will come direct from their native lands
to the south within the next year or so.
The company will soon publish an illus
trated pamphlet in German, the object of
which will be to give reliable information
concerning each of the southern states trib-
utary to it's lines to all Germans consider
ing the question of change of location
This pamphlet will be followed by other
publications giving general informatio
about this territory which 1t is thought
will be the means of attracting the atten-
ton of thousands of Germans to the south.
