HIS OLD COLLEGE CHUMS

A conductor sent a new brakeman
10 put some tramps off the train; they
were riding in a box car, says the
wellington (Kan.) News. The brake
man dropped into the car and saio,
where are you fellows going?" ITO
Atchison." "Well, you can't go to
Atchison on this train: so get Off.
You get" came the reply, and as
the, new brakeman was looking into
the business end of a gun he took
the advice given him and 'got.' He
went back to the caboOse, and the
conductor asked him if he had put
the fellows off. NO." he answered,
81 did not have the heart to put them
off. They want to go to Atchison,
ard, besides. they are old schoolmates
OF mine" The conductor used some
very strong language. and then said
he. would put them off himself. He
went over to the car and met with the
same experience as the brakeman.
When he got back to the caboose the
brakeman said, We'll, did you put
them Off" Nav. they're schoolmates
Ct mine, too"

GROOM

Sixty hundred and some odd votes
MORE THAN BOTH of his oppo-
nents together received looks good for
Groom as vote getter.
In fact it WAS good work, but con-
sidering it was Groom there is moth
ing very surprising in it.
This Is a case where the man fits
the office and the office fits the man
sc nicely. SO evenly and so exactly
that ii Is well nigh impossible to tell
v here one ends and tother begins.
Comptroller Groom is tautologically
euphonistic as we'll as eminently prop
er 1t is also Of such characteristic
correctness that the two words Groom
and Comptroller have about reached
that degree Of consanguinity known
70 the word family as SYNONYMOUS.
In spite Of all temptation to hold
the contrary opinion / have always
believed that the people can recognize
a good thing when they see one, and
will hold on tosa good man when they
get one working for them.
So, they hold on to Groom and give
linn plenty of majority whenever they
get a chance to vote for him.-Claud"

NOT KNOWN WHAT EFFECT 1T
WILL HAVE ON PROPOSED
EXTENSION.
Has Not Yet Been Announced Who
the New Owners Are, But All
of the Old Officials Are
Now Out.

The Georgia Coast & Piedmont road
according to well founded rumors
current in this city, as well as else
where, has changed hands, the new
owners taking charge August 1, but
who the purchasers are is not yet
known. Neither is it known just
what effect the sale will have on the
proposed extension OF the read from
Darien to Brunswick, which was de-
cided upon by the old owners some
time ago.
To carry out the rumor that~the
road has been sold, comes the an
nouncement that the vice president
and general manager has rendered his
resignation and stenped out on Au-
gust 1, while the auditor and one or
two other of the officials have stepped
out.
1t is expected that some definite
announcement concering the sale of
the road will be made in few days.
A we'll known Brunswick man, who
has been in touch with the road, in
conversation with News reporter
yesterday, said:
81 am quite positive that the road
has been sold, and while I do not
know who the purchasers are, l am
satisfied that the purchase of the
property is with the intention of ex-
tending it to Brunswick.
!" A few weeks ago a number OF
capitalists made trip of inspection
over the system, going all the way
from Darien to the end of the line,
and these capitalists are probably
batgHg whoever the purchasers are.
If the road eyer becomes a paying

Brunswick is vitally interested in
the future developments cf the Geor-
gia Coast and Piedmont. Many citi-
zens here believe that the road will
be extended. to Brunswick and that it
would have been done long ago had it
not teen for the recent financial panic.
Something definite concerning the
rumored sale will e awaited with IN
