 The only two of the old engineers of the division who survive Calvin and are still in the service of the road. are P. J. Mo- Donald and Thomas Goodloe, the latter now the conductor of a passenger train. In 1872 Dan B. Robinson was superintend- ent of the division. He died only a few years ago as President of one of the largest railroads of the West. William Murray and Matt Kennedy of the Illi- nois Central Railroad ssrved under Rob- inson as passenger conductor and baggage master, respectively. Col. A. s. Graham. the present ticket agent of the Texas and Pacific Railroad was the paymaster. and c. W. De Lappe, now with the East Lou isiana Railroad, was the station agent at Bay St. Louis.

AN ELOQUENT LECTURE.
Small Audience Heard s. P. McCall's
 4.nneaI fnr TNauorarauca

Sua14 Auulence hearQ S. F. McCaII
 4Appeal for Temperance.
 To an audience of eight persons s. P. Mccall of New Orleans delivered his lec- ture "A Drunkard's Fate" in the corridor of the county court house last night and this handful of people heard an appeal for temperance that was worthy of a great audience.
 MT. Mccall is an orator of ability and a speaker more enthusiastic over his sub 1ect never spoke from a platform. He told in clear, concise and forcible style Of the drunkard's life. pictured his deg radiation and shame showed the gradual loss of those attributes to mankind as a man, q husband and a father, which make him human being, and the growing ten dencies brought on by liquor to liken him to a beast.
 The eloquence of MT. Mccall was i'm not from hearsay, but from his own per sonal experience was the thing that im- pressed his hearers. His intense feeling and his earnest interest in the subject was apparent in the expression of his strong face and in every action of his body, working him and hls audience into the highest pitch of interest as he ap- proached his dramatic climaxes.
 Those who missed this lecture missed hearing one of the most entertaining and has ever been delivered in Montgomry.
 MT. Mccall was to have spoken in the City Court room but, the doors were locked and the keys could not be found with his lecture in the hallway.
 He will leave today for Troy where he will deliver his lecture and from there he will go to Demopolis to give his lecture for the second time.
 MT. Mccall Is an earnest man with a message. He said he regretted he did not have a larger audience in Montgomery and he hoped to come here again.

southern's Double Track.

The Atlanta Constitution says:
 The Southern is rushing its double track system between Atlanta and Washington and 600 tons of S0-pound steel rails have been contracted for at the Edgar Thomson plant of the Carnegie Steel Company. These rails are being delivered as fast sthey can be colled at the great mills, and 1t will be a very short time before they are all in position. F. D. Mullan, inspecting engineer of the South ern. is now in Pittsburg. looking after the delivery of the rails, and work all along the line Is being hurried as rapidly as possible. This Is large order, even in the railroad world, and 1t has attracted the attention of the magnates to the Southerns Improvements. In spite of the condition of the money market during the past few months. the Southern has gone steadily ahead with this additional tracx on It's system. and it is stated by those high in authority that there will be no let-up until there are two tracks all the way from Atlanta to Washington. The cost will be approximately $25, GOO, ,000 Grades are being reduced and curves are being cut. All the old bridges are beins relaced by strong steel structures capa- ble of sustaining all weight that may be placed upon them on account of the double tracks. Thirteen million tons o$ structu. ral steel were used in this bridge inn provement last year and about the same amount this year. The steel rail ton mage this year has already amounted to about 47,000 tons. Facilities al1 along the line are being increased, and the road will soon be the equal in every respect of the great Northern systems.

A. BANNER DIVISION
EXCELLENT SHOWING MADE BY
 SUPERINTENDENT MCKINNEY.
Montgomery and Mobile Division cf L. G N. Was Third in Annual Report-News of
 Railroads.

The Mobile and Montgomery division of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad has again asserted its claim as one of the banner divisions of the Louisville and Nashville and one of the most valuable pieces of railroad property in the entire South.
 Outside of the main system and the Henderson division, the Mobile and Mont gomery division is third in the list of op- erating expenses and earnings of the thirty-two divisions and branches of tho "Old Reliable" The operating expenses of the main stem division were something over 100000 while the total were over $4, ,S00.000, net earnings being over St. .60p, ,000 On the Henderson division the operating expenses were over I,700.000. total earn ings over 8, 000, 600 and net earnings near. ly I ,500,000 The operating expenses on the Mobile and Montgomery division were not quite $1 ,500,000. total earnings nearly $2.S000 900, and net earnings q, 200 600.
 The handsome showing of the Hender- son division is accounted for by the heavy coal traffic on the line, the showing of the Montgomery and Mobile being 8 magnificent one, the earning capacity be- ing way above that of any diviison on the system except those two mentioned.
 This is not the first time that the an- nual report of the Louisville and Nash vile has shown this, and with the rock ballast and superb physical condition of the road in genera. Superintendent J. I. Mckinney has pust cause to be proud of his banner division.
 One of the secrets of the great success that Superintendent Mckinney has achieved is the fact that every employe lowest, is in hearty syspathy with their chief. taking as much pride in keeping things in splendid condition as he does himself.
