INTERESTED IN THAT RAILROAD
Citizens OF HawkinsVilIe Ready to

the people are ready to respond and
build the road. AS announced in the

or ten days at the farthest. Hawkins
vile stands ready to do her part in the
work, and her enthusiastic citizens are
only awaiting the opportunity. Like
Americas, she needs an independent
line of railway badly, and is willing to
help pay for the building of one. No
city in the state needs such line so
very much as Americas bottled up
as she is on cotton shipments to the
Carolina mills-and in the road
to Hawkinsyille, connecting there
with the Southern Railway, she not
only obtains rate relief to the Carolina
cotton mills, where she ships thousands
of bales annually, but likewise gets a
waterway to the sea via Ocmulgee
river, besides direct connection with
the Georgia Southern road and alse the

REQUESTED TO CONTINUE CAFE
Popular Feature of Bazaar May Con-
tinue.


So popular has been the dining hall
of the bazaar, and such success finan-
cially, that the ladies in charge are be-
ing strongly urged to continue it thro'
one more week, and may yield to such
opportunities, although this is not fully
determined. The good dinners and
suppers served there this week have
made the bazaar cafe a Mecca for hun
dreds, and, while the bazaar will close
with today, the dining room annex
may continue through another week.
Superior court will be in session next
week, thus assuring a liberal patronage,
while the carnival crowds would add
no little to the exchequer. The ladies
have the matter under advisement, and
will determine today whether the di-
ming hall will remain open next week.
The public generally would be graft
fed to have it continued.

If the earth had opened and swallow

as to where the prisoners went when

vanished as if from the face of the earth
