Our New Railroad.

DO you realize, reader, that Bossier
Parish is soon to have a new line of
railroad? For years past. a line out of
Mlnden into Shreveport has been talked
OF and proposed, but we are now about
to have our dreams realized. Because
the line has been so long projected but
few believe that work is now under way
with view Of pushing it to completion.
But such is the case, so we are told.
The line is a spur of the Louisiana
and Arkansas, now operating out of
Stamps, Ark, into Winfield, Winn
Parish, and that part of it of which we
write will be known as the Minden and
Shreveport branch. The promoters are
Messrs. Buchanan of Stamps and Drake
of Minden.
Much work has already been done and
this is written chiefly to cali attention
to this. The line will absorb a lumber
road which extended about eight miles
west out of Minden. This part of the
road is completed and is in fairly good
condition. 1t is now being raised in
places and grades reduced elsewhere.
The rightofway has been cleared as far
as the Hutchinson old place, about one
mile west of the Bellevue and Haughton
road, and grading has been completed
up TO within four or five miles of this
point. Work on the terminal property
in Shreveport was begun this week.
We last saw the new rightofway on
the I'd. One thing that lmpresses the
sightseer is such long stretch without
curve. The road will cross the Belle
vue and Haughton public road about a
half mile south of the McDade planta-
ton (the southeast corner of the colored
church at that point being only about
six feet from the center of the rightof-
way and when standing here you get q
view of twelve mile stretch that is as
straight as one can draw string. Ar
opening through woods and old fields
100 feet wide, up hill and down hill, an6
with no grading or steel rails or cross
ties to be seen is indeed novel sight
This is what one sees. Your attention
is also directed to the mass of faller
timber piled on each side Of the rightof.
way, which will be allowed to lie there
and rot, or perhaps be burned later
This seems useless waste-but we wan
the railroads.
! At the point where the L. and A
enters Bossier the parish is about six
teen miles in width, and as it will b.
necessary to take a diagonal course ate
reaching the bottoms to strike Shreve
port, we presume the mileage in gu
parish will be some eighteen or twent!
miles. This will be big boost for gu
tax roll, and in addition we expect to Sc
a hustling town spring up in the neigh
borhood Of the McDade place-the pro
posed site. So, on with the L. and A.
and we hope the rumor that trains will
be operating over the road by Septem
Der 1st is true.

" Bad" Negro Killed.

Prince Williams, a colored plantation

tight-fitting short bolero Of the satin and
