PALACE CAFE IS
BECOMING POPULAR

The Palace Cafe, under the man.
agement of Mr.. o. N. Smith, former.
ly Of the Hotel Hattiesburg, is rapidly
becoming one of the most popular res
taurants in the city, and in time will
doubtless deserve the title, "The Del.
monico Of Hattiesburg."
Attention is called to the Sunday
menu of this popular cafe, which ap.
pears elsewhere in The News. A
glance at it will convince the most
exacting epicure that Mr. Smith, as a
caterer, cannot be excelled, and a
visit to his place will demonstrate
beyond question that no better SER
vice is to be found anywhere, regard
les of the location.
Mr.. Smith will use the columns of
The News from time to time in max
ing announcement of new delicacies
to be served patrons of the Palace,
and the public will doubtless soon
learn to watch for them with eager
expectancy.

Agreements to be Presented.

I'VE expect to have signed agree
ments to this effect presented at the
meeting Monday night, and this
agreement will not only place us on
basis with Jackson and Meridian, but
will maintain this parity in the fu-
ture. That is, if rates at Jackson
and Meridian are reduced, correspond
ing reductions will be made here.
IF the Mississippi Valley Trans
portation Company gives Hattiesburg
this reduction and maintains the
same, they will expect Hattiesburg
people to show their appreciation by
taking some stock in their company.
mo proposition has ever been pre-
sented to the business men of this
city of any greater Importance than
the questions now in hand. If you. as
a business man are interested in the
