COLUMBUS MEN COMING
WILL MAKE AUTO TRIP TO SAINT
ANDREWS BAY, FLORIDA.
To Stimulate Interest in Use of River
and st. Andrews Bay Canal Is
Said to Be Their Object.

anu oC' AHuTONS Day Oandl is
Said to Be Their Object.
The Columbus Chamber of Cont
merce has planned to send a delega-
ton of citizens in automobiles to st.
Andrews Bay. The party will go one
route and return another, stopping at
all the places en- route.
The party will leave Columbus at
a. m. June II. They will reach
Dawson at Z o'clock Friday morning,
June 10Th, where they will have
breakfast, and member of the party
will speak to those who meet them.
They will breakfast at the Dawson
Inn, where the speaking will probably
occur.
The object of the trip is thus ex-
explained by the Columbus Enquirer
Sun:
Stimulating interest in the use of
the river and the St. Andrews Bay
canal will be the principal idea, and
the Columbus people will urge CO.
operation with the other river towns
looking to a more general use of the
two waterways in order that there
may be no obstacle whatever from
this direction in securing an appro-
priation to install locks and dams in
the river. Officers and members of
the chamber of commerce are enthu-
siastically in favor of the tour, and
more so in the further improvement
of the river, and while this fact is
to be hammered on more than any
other the people making the trip are
to develop a more cordial trade rela-
ton between the towns of the Column
bus territory through which the tour
is to be operated"

THE COUNTY CONVICTS HAD
CHICKEN FOR DINNER SUNDAY
Though Wearing Stripes They Jared
Better Than Many People.

County Warden Riley Jennings
gave the convicts in his care an ex-
ira dinner Sunday Besides other
good things to eat there was on the
bill of fare for this particular meal
chicken a la Jennings" as one of
the meats, and the supply was plen-
tiful.
This is, perhaps, the first instance
in the state where convicts were serv-
ed chicken, and the zebras showed
their appreciation of the kindness OF
their warden by doing full justice to
the delicacy. There were a whole
raft of folks who are not convicts
who failed to have chicken for din
ner Sunday, as the barnyard bird has
been very rare this spring.
