POCALLO SPRINGS.
improvements Being Made at This
Popular Resort.

a reporter had the pleasure of Wis
iting the Pocalla Springs picnic
grounds Saturday. The dam to
the fish pond has been repaired, and
the water from four artesian wells
and two springs has filled the pond
and is overflowing at the rate of more
than 265 gallons a minute. The four
wells were put down by Mr. George
S. Jackson and each of them flows
over 80 gallons a minute. The water
is cool and clear.
Mr.. Beck has had built a long bath
house on the dam, where he has
bathing suits, and will serve cold
drinks. 1t is his purpose to utilize
the power from the waste for gener-
ating lights for his picnic grounds
and possibly for a grist mill and cot
ton gin.
Eight boats have been put on the
pond, and others will be put on. Some
day when there is a big crowd out
there the boats will be named, those
present voting on the names.
A taunt rope will be stretched
across the pond just high enough for
ones feet to miss the water. The
bathers can go across the pond swing
Ing on the rope, or if they wish they
may turn loose when they get tired
and fall in. A trapeze will also be
put in the pond.
The grounds will be thrown open
to the white people for picnic pur-
poses.
One Of the wells is in the center of
the pond and is perpetual fountain.
Swimming about on the pond are
pure white Pekin ducks.
The President Of the Northwestern
Railroad has agreed to put in a sta
ton to be named Pocalla Springs.
If time can be found for it, an
excursion will be run out to the
Spring during the tournament.
