The skating was fine at the canyon
yesterday and a large number Of peo-
pie. both young and old, took advan-
tage Of the opportunity to spend a
very pleasant afternoon. The weather
was fine and the day a beautiful one.
The ice was over six inches thick and
clear as crystal. The surface was as
smooth as plate glass and the ponds
we're crowded with skaters. II was
a pleasure to watch the sport and
falls were frequent to those unaccus-
toned to the steel Many
skating parties for the coming moon
light nights have been planned by the
young people and 1t Is very probable
that the street railway company Will
string electric lights for the skaters.

WORK IS PUSHED
 ON SOUTHERN END
ENGINEER GARRETT OF BIRMlNo- HAM, COLUMBUS G ST. AD- DREWS BAY ROAD IS ENTHUS- IAsTIc OVER PROSPECTS.

Columbus, Ga, February 12.-(SpeciaD Capt. J. M. Garrett, chief engineer of the Birmingham, Columbus and St. An drews Bay railroad, has been in the city for day or two. He has just been over the line from Columbus to St. An drews Bay, and regarding this section says that there is nothing very heavy or difficult in the way of engineering prop ositions to be encountered on the route. He is confident that the road will have a heavy local patronage. Discussing the road and It's prospects he says:
 "It will run through the finest tract of virgin timber in the south, and I have been told that enough timber can be cut within a few miles of the right of way of the road to pay for the entire line in the next few years. The road will also pass through a large section of the hattanoochee valley, famous for its rich lands and productlveness. The har- Dor at St. Andrews Is certainly a mag nifcent one and there is plenty of water there for the biggest ocean-going vessels I find people all along the line enthus- iastic over the new road and willing to do their part to get it."
 Captain Garrett said that work was being rushed on the south end of the line. Crossties are being cut and hauled to the right of way and track laying will begin next week.

FARMERS ARE HARMONIOUS.
PrattvlIe Citizens Fall in With Plan
 to Reduce Acreage.


 Prattville. February 12.-The cotton growers of this beat met at the court house and organized under the instruc- tions outlined by the New Orleans con vention several days ago E. D. Gresh- am was made president and w. A. Wads- worth secretary. There were present fifty, embracing nearly every prominent farmer in this beat, and the work of the convention was done with business-like judgment. There were several resolutions adopted. The one to cut the commercial fertilizer 25 per cent below what was used on last years crop, and the one to reduce the acreage of cotton. which passed in the shape of not to plant more than two thirds of the farm in cotton, will reach the mark and cause a reduction of 20 per cent on last years crop. Those present who have spot cotton on hand agreed to supply their pro rata to the New Orleans cotton pool All of this was unanimously agreed to-
 There was sufficient funds raised then to travel a man over the beat to secure the names of such other farmers as were not present, and their pledge to reduce the acreage This work will be commenced Monday.
 Delegates were appointed to meet with those of the rest of the county next Thursday, the 16th, at the court house.
 Several negro farmers, who had heard of the convention, were present and show ed a willingness to contribute their sup port to the movement. In fact. there was nothing but harmony in the meeting. Every farmer present seemed to do what he could to further the cause of the cotton grower. If the interest in other beats of this county was as determined as in this beat, there will be one of the most determined conventions here next Thursday that has assembled in the coun- ty in many years.

of the National Irrigation association to the square mile homestead policy was that very large areas of good agrieul- tural land where 160 acres was ample for q home, would be included in the $40 acre homesteads and he supported Sem ator Gibsons contention that with our present knowledge of western lands, proper and intelligent classification Is im- possible. He mentioned an instance com ing under his notice last summer em- bracing some hundred thousand acres of high table land inthe Cherry Patch ridge. a days drive from Harlem, Mont, where the land had been grazed for twenty years. open to homestead entry, but with no thought of its being farming land capable of supporting families. Last sea- son ten acres were planted to various grains. flax, etc. and in spite of very late planting and an exceptionally poor year, excellent yields were produced without irrigation, an utter astonish- ment to the people of Harlem, and now the country Is being settled up with the assurance of large and prosperous farming community.

THE HOUSE.

The naval appropriation bill will be taken up by the House on Monday, as soon as legislation for the District of Columbia has been disposed of. The naval bill is usually a subject oi long debate, and the bill this year will be attacked on several grounds. There will be general discussion as to the naval policy, and issue is to be taken with the committee in its provision for increases. The topic of armor plate contracts is to fill its accustoned place on the pro- gramme, while submarine boats and tor pedo boats are to form the basis of of fensive and defensive argument. The best estimate that can be made, is that at least four days will be consumed in getting legislative action on this bill in the House. It IS to be followed imme- dia.ely by the river and harbor bill which has been nthe calendar for some days and usually occupies several days once it Is taken up. Should the decks be cleared at any time the proposed legislation on the Panama canal project which is the continuing order, will be discussed.
