proposed improvements at the meet
ing, which, after examination by the
citizens meeting, was indOrSed, and
later accepted by the city council as
a substitute for the proposed new
depot. Ire improvements, when made,
will give Grenada one of the prettieSt
and most attractive depotS on the
line between Memphis and New Or
leans. The waiting rooms now for
both white and c0lOred passengers are
on the north end Of the depot build
ing. These two rooms are to be
thrown into one and extended twenty
three feet nOrthward. Suitable toilet
rooms are to be made for both sexes,
and other convenienceS, which will
make the building entirely SatiSfac-
tory. The cOlOred waiting room will
be placed on the opposite side of the
ticket office, and will occupy part Of
the space now used as freight room.
Considerable additions will also be
made to the freight rooms on the |
south end. MersSrs. Smith and Neud- |
flor both made short talks and an !
earnest desire to conform to all reaS- !
enable demands made by the town.
Work will begin in ve:y few days on |

Mr.. j. A. Gibson is a candidate for
supervisor in beat 5. He served the
people of that beat in that capacity
once before and the county never had
a more faithful, honest and cOnscien-

LAND SAFE FOR
SMALL INVESTOR

In a recent number OF the Saturday
Evening Post, eX-Comptroller of the
Currency Dawes, has an article made
up of warning and advice to small in
Vestors. His general rule can be easily
remembered, and is worth the trouble.
Keep your hand on your pocketbook
as you journey through life" Mr..
Dawes is sarcastic on the subject of
get-rich-quick schemes Of all sorts.
Well he may be. So many people have
lost the savings of years by putting
money into worthless stocks that II
might be supposed their fate would
deter others. But the gullible and the
greedy are numerous, and so are those
who are ignorant of the shoals and
quicksands of business. One thing
that helps sharpers TO get customers
is the fact that while everybody is
ready TO tell of winnings in specula-
tion, the man who loses generally feels
like keeping quiet. This leads the
crowd to imagine the amount Of money
made in speculation far greater than
it really Is, and causes discomfort with
small returns To the man with a
little money he says; "Be self-reliant.
Make your own investigation. Try TO
invest II with successful business men
I'm the business in which they have
succeeded" As a general thing. how
ever. he favors a good savings bank.
There is an easy investment which the
working man can sometimes make,
and that is in land. If he does not
get more than he can readily CARR,
il Is likely 10 yield better results ;han
anything else.

IDEAL FLAT-IRON
SITE in THIS CITY
Plot at Market, King, Fiji
teenth and Sixteenth Streets
For Apartment House

One of Wimington's well known
residents has called attention to what
may be termed an ideal fat-iron site
for the construction of an apartment
house. In an interview yesterday this
resident stated:
"The plot Of ground bounded by
Market, King, Fifteenth and Sixteenth.
streets in the northern part of this city
cannot be excelled any where on the
eastern seaboard in picturesque
beauty The view is magnificent in
all directions. Much of the fame Of
the famous New York iat-iron build
ing is due to the fact that every room
in the sixteen stories fronts "a street.
but the view includes only the sky
line of house tops, unchangeful in
their rigidity as the features of
Sphynx Of Egypt, looking across the
lonely waste of the Libyan desert.
The three sides of this piece of ground
at Market and King streets, forms
an eQuilateral triangle of singular
exactness. The Brandywine here runs
pingly TO the sea in soft murmuring
sounds. To the west YOU are in touch
with an artist whose rapid brush will
quickly transfer to the canvas of the
sky the splendor of the dying
day, as the sun sinks below the hori-
zon. Away up in the zenith the deer
blue Of the sky graduates to the gath
ering shades of night in the east.
Every where is a wealth of form and
color. No where is there an obstruc-
ton to the sweep Of the air and all in
all it is most singular that investors
in department house sites have not
availed themselves Of this desirable
plot of ground long ago, and therebT
add greatly to the appearance of the
city beautiful on the historic Brandy
wine"
