MISSISSIPPI GAME LAW

Montgomery. March 29 - (Special.) Commissioner John H. Wallace, Jr., of the state department of game and fish, today received information that the leg islature of Mississippi has passed game laws for that state patterned after the Alabama statute. It will be recalled that several days ago similar laws were passed ey the Virginia legislature.
 The Mississippi and Virginia laws are practically the same as the Alabama laws Commissioner Wallace addressed the leg islatures of both states on the subject of game conservation and to him is large ly due the credit for the enactment of their game statutes.

to restrain the defendant company from operating their street cars into the city of Girard until certain promises relative to laying track and operating cars over the Dillingham; street bridge shall have been complied with, was called before Chancellor Lewis in Scale and his decree was that the plaintiff be given 60 days in which to arrange additional amendments to their pro-
 cess. This decree is practically an- other decision in favor of the Colum- bus Railroad company, inasmuch a< their demurrers were sustained. The city of Girard is at liberty, however, to file any and all amendments de- sired within the next two months.

It's all right down in Dixie, but when you are on Broadway, and having walked l5 or 20 blocks without seeing another white suit. you begin to feel just a trifle conspicuous. Of course, if you like that sort of sensation, then wear white clothes, but if you merely desire to attract atten- tion, drop 10 cents on the sidewalk so that 1t will ring, and every one that hears 1t will turn upon you a curious and an enV1ous gaze. But the attention white clothes draw to one is not altogether of a pleasing character.
 New York has a white clothes league of 100 or more men, all of whom agree to attenl certain functions in pure white, but having attended the functions thus at tired, they immediately don regular clothes, before going out again on Broad way or tire avenue.
 New Workers are so afraid of the chsngeable weather here that on the warmest days of summer one can see vests frequently on the street. and if there is the slightest hint oi coolness, overcoats are not difficult to find along the thoroughfares. Doll up a la Varda- man all you wish at home, but pull them off the other side of the Pennsylvania sta- tion, unless you enjoy being considered a natural prey for the "pickers."

WILL BUILD BRIDGE

Montgomery, March 29.-(SDeclal )-lra- mediate construction of a bridge across the Tombigbee river at Jackson and early completion of every link in the proposed Jackson highway between Montgomery and Mobile was assured delegations of the Montg gomery Chamber of Commerce and the local automobile federation today; w.. D. Harrigan of Fulton, Clarke county; and L. C. Irvine of Mobile.
 MT. Harrigan and MT. Irvine came through the country from Mobile for the purpose of interesting citizens along the proposed route in the immediate construc- ton of the Jackson highway. Already plans have been drawn for the bridge across the Tombigbee at Jackson and work on this enterprise will commence within the next few days.
 This bridge according to Harrgan, who has been the principal promoter of the poject will cost something like $50, OOO this money to be secured in var ious ways. As an initial beginning, how ever, a stock company has been formed capitalized at $10000. Mobile. Washington and Clarke county citizens have sub scribed to about $6O0O worth of stock. The city of Selma promises to take 5000 and Montgomery will make up the remaining $20G0. The next move will be to float S3G,CG0 worth of bonds, bringing the amount up to s4O,000. The remaining $10,- GOO will be loaned the company by MT. Harrigan.
 CONTRACTS ARE LET
 Most of the road between Montgom- cry and Mobile has already been con- structed and contracts have been let for the rest. The road from Montgomery to the Wilcox county line is in an excellent condition, with the exception of about three miles in Lowndes county, and this strip will be graveled immediately, it is announced. One half of the road through Wilcox has been built, and contract has been let for the other half. Contracts have also been let for the highway through Clarke and Washington counties.
 In the opinion of MT. Harrigan the Jackson highway between Mobile and Montgomery will have been completed by the time the commissioners make their next trip of inspection. which will be sometime in October He declared that south Alabama is determined not to be surpassed by north Alabama in it's efforts to secure the Jackson highway and indi- cated his belief that if the road north of Montgomery will be in as good condition as the road south of Montgomery there will be no doubt that the Alabama route will be selected.

THE OPPOSING LOBBY

Tt must be borne in mind that We are confronted by one of the ablest and most resourceful Hobbies in the history of Con- gress. The lobby is a combination of several smaller Hobbies, that in the in- terest of powder manufacturers, of fer tlizer manufacturers, and the so-called conservationists who are apparently de- termined to prevent the capitalizing in the interest of the people of latent water power which now in waste rolls unevent- fully to the sea-
 "As an agricultural section, the south would be chiefly benefited by the success of the amendment. The farmers union and the granges-organizati of the north which correspond to the union of the south-are heartily in favor of the idea contained in the amendment. At any rate, I will stand to the last ditch in be- half of project which would make the agricultural interests-and all other inter ests-of our section relatively rich.
 But first of all, naturally. I am moved in the interest of the country as a whole. We must have gunpowder if we would be prepared, and we cannot be prepared until we are commercially Independent of the nitrate deserts of Chile"

 DEAD BADLY MINGLED Hospital trains were run from Cleve- land. Elyria and Lorraine. and hun dreds of villagers and farmers from Amherst and vicinity helped in the work of rescue. The little morgue at Amherst was quickly filled, but other buildings were made available for the dead, most of them mangled beyond recognition. and sorne of them so far that Identification may never be estab- lished.
 Private homes also were thrown open and many were utilized pending re- moval of the injured to Elyria and Lor- raine hospitals. These institutions to- night were filled with injured, and it was generally believed the death list would be increased. The cause of the wreck was in doubt tonight. One of the theories was that a block signal, set suddenly and with out warning, stopped the first section of No. S6, with the second section fol- l lowing closely in the next block. w. F.. Schaff, district superintendent of the New York Central, said that the block l system had been tested this morning and found working perfectly.

NORTH PLATTE, Neb., Nov. IL
Word has been received here to the
effects that the case against w. M.
Coble, a postofT1ce Inspector, acting
postmaster at Bridgeport. Neh., has
been dismissed.
The case arose over the efforts Of
G. J.. Porter, former postmaster, to
have Coble enioined from continuing
in the Office. the former having been
removed by the postmaster genera be-
cause Of so=called Sassy" correspofid Z
tence lWrl ten ito the cabin at member.
Several. months ago Porter, accord
master general asking for additional
clerks In the Bridgeport office. The
reply to this letter was TO the effect
that the Office in question had as many
clerks for its size and the amount OF
business done as any Office In the
country.
Porter then wrote another letter to.
the postmaster general telling him
how many hours he (Porter) worked
a day, and how many his clerks work
ed, and then interrogating the mem
Der OF the cabinet as to how many he
worked
The upshot of the matter was that.
Porter was removed from office. When.
Colby. the post0fiice inspector, was
sent to Bridgeport to take the Office,
Porter fought his removal on the
grounds that, as3he was appointed by
the president, only the pTestd ent could
remove him from office.
