MUCH INTEREST IN THE
PROPOSED STEEL BRIDGE
Special to The journal.


NCCaskillville, Fla, Dec 2O-The
citizens OF our vicinity are exercising
a great deal of interest over the pros
poets of a steel bridge which is pro-
posed to span the EScambia river
somewhere in the vicinity of Bogia
Station. As a result of interest mani
Tested, there was a meeting held at
McCaSkill school house on Friday
evening, Dec. 18th, and the following
petition was drawn up and put in cir

ITO the County Commissioners of
Santa Rosa County:
We. the citizens of Santa Rosa
county, pray the county commission
ers of said county that you appoint a
Joint committee TO act with a like

select the most suitable place for the
construction of a bridge across the
Escambia river. We respectfully ask
that the committee be selected from
the older settlers or residents of the
county who are familiar with the river
and approaches"

names subscribed to the petition at
the meeting, and several copies Of
same were sent out by different par
ties for other subscribers.
The citizens of this portion OF the
county are not particular as to just
where the bridge should be built,
more than at some place so located as
to do the most good to the largest
number of people of both this county
and Escambia. It is thought that the
two counties should select a commit
tee of ten responsible men each, and
instruct this committee TO investigate
the adjacent communities on each
sides of the river. also the approaches
to the swamp and river, and ascertain
where a bridge could be built that
would do the most good for each coun-
ty. also estimate the cost of cOnstruc-
ton and maintenance.

New Discovery Has ReVoIutionized
the Treatment Of Skin Diseases.
Nothing in the history OF medicine
has ever approached the success of
the marvellous skin remedy known as
pOslam, which, it is safe to say, has
cured more cases Of eczema and skin
diseases than any remedy ever offered
for these Ills.
The success of poslam is not at AL
surprising when 1t is considered thas
even a very small quantity applied 10
the skin stops itching Immediately aud
cures cnronic cases in two weeks. The
very worst cases of eczema, as well as
acne, herpes, letter, piles, salt rheum
rash, cFusted humors, scaly scalp AM
every form of itch, yield to it readily.
Blemishes such as pimples, red noses,
muddy and tnhamed skin disappear
almost Immediately when pOslam is
applied, the complexion being cleared
overnight.
Every druggist keeps both the so
cent size (fOr minor trOubles) and the
s. jar, and either of these may be 90

Pharmacy and D'Alemberte's, as we'll

TIE SOUTH POLE.

Lieutenant Ernest H. ShsckletoD, Of
The British usvy, who left his permanent
quarters last autumn for dash to the
south pole, succeeded, after al srduous
sltdge journey of l,7OS miles, which oc-
cuopied 126 days, 10 reaching within Ill
miles of the south pole, or S64 miles
nearer than the point attained by the
discovery expedition, of which he was
"a officer. He has thus planted the
British hrff at "Farihts S,uth."
AS the expedition to the sonth was
undertaken rather for the purposes Of
geographical survey than with the idea
Of reaching the pole itself, II may be
said to have succeeded beyond the most
sspguine expectations.
The men Ia the expedition suffered
intensely, facing an almost continuous
BLIZZARD, aud risked death often.
