New Railroad for Mullins.

" "uillHS messenger
1t is now said that the Latta
Branch Railroad will be extended
and connect with the road from
Conway to Aynor just across the
Little Pee Dee from Mullins. and
that this connection of these two
branch road of the Atlantic Coast
Line system will pass directly
through Mullins. A direct line from
Latta to Cool Spring in Horny coun-
ty will carry this Latta branch road
Just west of Mullins near the ]. N.
Bethea farm. A slight DETECTION to
the left coming from Latta would
lntersect the main line OF the At
lantic Coast system just in West
Millins and passing out south to
Aynor the present terminal OF the
Conway branch of the new road
would pass near Gapway church, or
pend upon the right of way costs
somewhat, we guess.
This connection would place Null
Inns the center OF two railroads
leading generally south and north
besides the A. c. l.. main line con-
trclled by two great railroad sys-
tens and ought to be OF great ad-
vantage to Mullins and will be IL
the business men of the Mullins
community will but take advantage
OF their possibilities and make Null
Inns what she can and ought to be
made.
The Messenger will welcome the
new railroad to Mullins, and will
shake hands with Latta and Con-
way as 1t has with Dillon over the
North and South Carolina road cor
daily and rejoice with all these
progressive neighbors in our future
prosperity. We shall expect to see
this NV road from Lattea. or rath-
er Clio. or perhaps McColl, go on to
deeper water at Southport, and the
North and South Carolina extended
Georgetown and finally to Charles
ton, maybe by way of Conway, too.
With these extensions by way of
Mullins, and then the Raleigh and
Charleston road now stopping at
Marion extended down through the
Brittons creek section of Marion
county and to Rosemary on the
Georgetown and Western road.
thence to Charleston and McBee,
Hartsville, Darlington and Florence
branch of the Seaboard Air Line
road, connecting with the Raleigh
and Charleston at Rosemary, the
Pee Dee section of the State would
be finely developed by these inter
sections and cross Intersections of
great railroad systems, the Atlantic
Coas' Line and the Seaboard Air
Line.
Let us watch, work and push
along the good prospects.

see, as it embodied the highest ideals,
such as the fellowship of man and
showed the danger of hypocrisy in the
church.
Rev. Mr. Black then turned to the
plays that are produced today and tax
ing Duluth as an instance inquired: IF

to Duluth, what percentage OF the peo-
Pile would attend:" He scored the pop

entirely unreal and false. Father and

down as hysterical and unreal and the
stage laugh as unnatural and distinctly

vulgar but not helpful.
Before scoring the present day shows
Mr.. Black paid high compliments to the
theatres OF ancient Greece and Rome

side was raised church. I'm these

He Is Sending Cold Wave Over the
Entire Country.

From saturdays Oaty.
Probably the worst cold wave that
ever swept over the country so late
in the season within the memory OF
man. is now in progress. The mercury
began to fall night before last, and
Yesterday it lowered close TO forty all
day, with high onrth9est wind. Last
night the sky was overcast with
clouds, and the wind kept up, but the
mercury fell to twenty-siX, and every
thing exposed was frozen. Thick ice
formed out OF doors. Today the wind
was higher than it was yesterday. and
heaviest winter wraps were needed.
The prediction is that the cold will
continue tomorrow. with severe freez-
ing again tonight.
What effect this will have on the
crops is a problem that is causing a
good deal of worry. 1t is not thought
that wheat will suffer much, but the
fruit and vegetable crop is expected
10 be taken. Many apple trees es-
capped the freeze week ago. but what
was left then is expected TO 90 this
time, as the present cold wave is much
more severe than that one was.
