asked its cooperation in a request
that the ney county jail be placed
elsewhere, than on the Court House
square The Ladies accompanied by
the Camp proceeded to the room Of
the County Board of Supervisors,
where the matter was laid before that
body. The president of the Board as
sured the Ladies, that their request
should have careful and candid con-
sideration. One of the reasons as
signed why the Jail should be erected
elsewhere, was, that 1t was hopeful
that one or more monuments would
be placed on the public square in a
few years and that all memorial SER
vices, reunions and anniversaries
would be held there, and that the
proximity of the jail would mar the
enjoyment of such occasions.
A committee consisting of Comrades
Benson and Chambers was appoint

Local Agent Explains Condition and Tells Of

The Daily News recently made some
criticism of the waiting room at the

Mr.. c. w. Hassell,
Agent, N. o. & N. E. R. R.
Hattiesburg, Miss.
Dear Sir:
Your attention is directed to the
enclosed clipping from the Daily News
of even date calling attention tn the
condition of the waiting rooms of the
passenger station of your road at this
place and also to the quality Of wat.
er that is furnished the patrons Of inc
road.
In view of the liberal attitude of the
people of Hattiesburg towards the
railroads of the state, which has been
favorably commented upon by many
people, it is felt by our people that
consideration of their comfort should
be the first thought
or course we recognize that you
can do nothing in the matter Of the
new station SO long promised, but IL
after investigation you find that the
conditions complained of do now exist
win you not provide the necessary re-
lief both as to the sanitation of the
premises and the character of the

RAPID HEADWAY
ON new RAILROAD
Now Rushing Construction in South.
easterly Direction From
Town Of Virgins

1t is stated on good authority that
the Finkbine railroad running east
from Virgins, has completed 25 miles
of road.
The road is being constructed in a
substantial manner, standard gauge,
with good bridges and other substan-
tial work.
It is still believed by many in Wig
gins that the Gulf and Ship Island
is quietly behind the movement, or in
tends to acquire 1t. There is much
speculation as to the ultimate desti
nation of the road. 1t is not believed
that it is intended that this new line
shall be a temporary or logging af-
fair.
Already prosperous settlements are
springing up along the Line.
There has been suggestion that
the road from Baton Rouge to Gov
ingtcn, La, may be extended to con-
meet with the Finkbine read and that
it may be extended on to some city
further east.
At any rate the impression Is grow.
ing that the new road msy become an
important railroad property.
