with full house last night when
she appeared at the auditorium in
the Shakespeare comedy Twelfth

Twelfth Night" appeared some

student of Shakespeare it of course
had deeper interest. The ability
of the actors also is criticized &C

a Rich Section of
Baldwin.

Bay Minnette, June 22.-(Special0-
Baldwin county Is at last to have an
other railroad. charter was granted
yesterday to the Bay Minette and
Fort Morgan Railroad Company. Its
northern terminus and general head
quarters will be at Bay Minette, and
it will run south through the county
a distance of about forty-flve miles,
developing some of the best part of
the county. The officers of the COM
pany are: T. P. Hamm, president; w.
w. Cdney. vice president and secretary
and Baldwin County Bank, treasurer.
The directors are, T. P. Hamm. w.
w. Olney and W. D. Stapleton.
Messrs Hamm and Olney are from
Chicago, while the others are of Bay
Minette. The Baldwin County Bank
will disburse all expenses of build
ing.
A number Of men have already gone
to work on the road. and 1t is expect
ed that in a short time there will be
a large force at work.
This road will be of great benefit to
Bay Minette as well as to the county.
The location for the depot. shops and
other necessary buildings has been Sc
lected and donated.
The time was when Baldwin was
classed as back number in Ala
bama, but it is forging TO the front
in such rapid strides that people all
over the United States are making in
quiries and investments here. The
day will come. so it is predicted by
many, when Baldwin will be called the
garden spot of Alabama. With its
many advantages 1t can not be kept
in the back ground much longer, and
the building of this new road will be
the end Of old time
Bay Minette has the distinction OF
having shipped the first car load OF
peaches into Chicago this season, and
in two more years the crop from this
county will amount to several hun
dred cars each season.
In the vegetable line Baldwin has
long been first in Alabama, and the
record will no doubt remain unbroken
