1t is pointed out by those who are
In favor of operating the booster
special that there is no better way to
meet these new people than to 80
right to them personally, show them
that their trade is wanted and make
a bid for it. 1t would take only
about two days to make the trip L !
and down the entire route of the new
road and the expenses would be small
compared with the benefit that would
be derived from such a trip. The
wholesale and retail dealers would
have to pay only small amount to-
wards defraying the expenses Of the
trip.
Those who are in favor of such a
trip think it should be made as early
as possible after the completion of
the road, and they further point out
that it should be followed by a spc
cial excursion from all points along
the line to this city, giving the peo-
pie an opportunity to visit Bruins
wick and make acquaintance in the
city in which they are to do mos.
of their business in the future.
One of the city's leading whole.

was his intention to boost the spe-
cial and he will probably bring the
matter up before the Board ef Trade

NUMBER OF NAMES IN JURY
BOXES WILL BE REDUCED

The jury commissioners of Glynn
county are still busy revising the jury
lists 1t was expected that the work
would be completed by the end OF the
present week, but 1t was announced
yesterday that 1t would probably be
next Tuesday or Wednesday before
the work is entirely finished.
1t is understood that the number Of
names in both the grand and petit
jury boxes will be reduced especially
in the latter. This Is due to the fact
that the commissioners are removing
from the box all the names of those
who hold jury exemptions, as well as
names which have been in the box
for some time who are not subject
to jury duty, as well as others who
have removed from the city. In all
the number of names In the petit jury
box will be reduced about 100.
