Baltimore, Md., Dec. St The rail mail situation In the South is full of instances showing the aim ot,U the important lines there to reacn points upon the Gulf of Mexico, particularly since the construction of Panama canal has been assured, giving warrant for great expect ttona of heavy ton nage to follow tne opening 01 msi m-ter-oceanlo waterway. One Is a re port from New Orleans crediting an official ef the Southern Pacific Rail way visiting there with saymg mat the company . would not be satisfied until It had reached a gulf outlet at both Oulfport, Miss., because of great Importance, especially in lumber, and Pensacola, Fla. He also said that plans were' now under consideration, and practically agreed on, to build a bridge across the Mississippi river at Baton Rouge, with a lino -Ofty-two miles long connecting with the South ern Pacific at Lafayette, La. All that remained to be done was to finance the bridge projects and it was the further purpose of the company to continue eastward to the -ports named. Another very Interesting and Important report comes from Nashville. Tenn.. to the effect that the Tennessee Central Rail road Company Is considering plans to butld two large extensions, one to rir mlna-ham. Ala., and the other to Chat tunootra. The first would be direct from Crossvllle. Tenn. - An officer of the comnanv declined to either af firm or deny the report, which is said to pome from a source close to the control of the road. These are but typical of the tendencies In railroad construction In the South.' which In cludes, however, the building up of smaller line throuah virgin territory. A letter to The Manufacturers' Record tells of one of these operating through thirty or forty miles of territory in two Georgia counties. It Is the Tallu lah Falls Railway, which by opening up fifteen miles of new trackage last spring gave a great Impetus to the development of the counties. The let ter says: "As proof of the prosperity along our lines, we have a net increase of 26 per cent, in the earnings' of our road over the previous year. Delightful fall weather has evidently been taken ad vantage of by the farmers along our line, if one Is to Judge by the Increased acreage of fall plowing. The apple and peach growers have also been benefited by this mild rail weamer in so much that their orchards show plenty of cultivation and thrift. Never in the history of these two counties has there been greater activity In the building line than is shown at the present time. Especially is this true In towns along our new road Wiley, Tiger and Clayton. There are several new Industries in tne process 01 con structionnamely, a silk plant, brick plant. Ice plant, starch plant and an asbestos plant. This latter Industry is well under way and turning out a flniahed nroduct at Tumervllle, Oa. We understand that ths asbestos plant Is turning out a new proauci Known as asbestos plaster and meeting with great success." OUt Of tne BOUinwesi similar aciiti iia are renorted. Along the 'Frisco, for Instance, plants are working their men full time and business is very good. The Southwest is filling up very rapidly with new settlers, and t Is estimated that approximately each 1 DM Immigrants are being car rled over the lines to different points In the Southwest, where they are com mencing the worn or Dreaaing boh. u sldes building homes and carrying on general farming. On account of this heavy Immigration and because of the ottnne- nn nf the country, new towns are springing up, ana ainereni iine 01 business houses are being established at each town, and numerous industries of all kinds are being estaDiisnea. ENTERTAINMENT AT LOUISBCRG. "FVhoes From the Operas" Proves a Success Funeral or woaa man. Correspondence of The Observer. Louisburir. Dec. 21. "Echoes From ODeras" held the boards at the opera house last night. The performance was for the benefit of the Y. M. C. A. and nulte a nice sum was realized. The cast was exclusively of local talent. and each and every one acquitted him self and herself creditably. To men tion all of the company would be necessary to mention each who did his or her part well and space for bids: but I trust it is pardonable to mention those most prominent as so loists. Miss Llxzie Lee Aycock, Miss Lynn Hall. Miss May Jones, Miss Helen Williams, Mrs. A C. Hughes and Mrs. D. G. Pearce all sang well,, while among the gentlemen entitled to special mention are Dr. -A. H- Fleming and Mr. W. W. Boddle. Little Miss Ruth Hall made a hit in the cnarming melody. "Don't You "Want to Be My Doggie?" The chorus was beautiful and graceful, doing their parts well, but unfortunately lacking In volume, due to the badly built stage. The costumes were appropriate and every scene without exception was striking ly pretty. The programme was con cluded with the "Old North State." followed by the national hymn "Amer ica." The remains of Mr. Arthur iimner- lake, who died recently from Injuries sustained by an accident on the Southern Railway, by whlcn company he was employed as flagman, reached here yesterday and were carried to his father's residence at Raynor. The funeral will be held at Rock Spring Baptist church to-day at Z o clock. conducted by Rev. H. K. Mashburn. of Louisburg. TRAINMAN COOKED TO DEATH.

SMALLPOX IN SCOTLAND. No Effort Whatever to Check the Spread or the Disvase initial wi In Organising tho Farmers Church Entertainments. Special to The Observer. Laurinburc. Dec. 22. Smallpox Is be coming prevalent in the county both in town and in country. Several cases have been reported, though as yet no deaths have occurred. And there Is no telling what will be the outcome, for there seems to be no effort to stop Its spread except the urgent appeals of the county physicians to tne peopie to submit to vaccination. There la no quarantine, not even of the houses where It Is known to be, and no talk of a pest house for the cases declared to be genuine. The "man with the bumps'' is literally given tbe right of way. The meeting of the farmers of the county at the court house last Satur day, is likely to be the Initial act In getting the farmers united and becom ing members of the Southern Cotton Growers' Association. Committees were appointed for each township, who are to thoroughly canvass the county at once soliciting every farmer to hold his cotton for better prices, and securing his promise to meet here January 7, 1905. looking to a perma nent organisation of the Scotland county farmers. Your correspondent has been In formed bv a leading cltisen that an other cotton mill for Laurinburg is an assured fact. The particulars are not yet given out.

High Point. Dec. 22. At a recent meeting of the manufacturers held In the Manufacturers' Club rooms It was agreed to start a subscription list to build a $20,000 Y. M. C. A. building and a committee was appointed to solicit subscriptions and report at a later meeting to be held December 27th. Mr. Mlchener, a well known Y. M. C. A. man made a talk to the working men while here last week and about 300 of them signed an agreement to Join the association. The matter la re ceiving great attention, as it is felt that such an Institution should be located here, and will most probably become a reality. Word received lately from Ed Burns, who was accidentally shot by Geo. Gould, reports his condition Improved but the New York specialists are not yet certain that his eye sight will be restored. A recent notable event was a grand mother's dinner given by Mrs. W. H. Ragan, of this place. Mrs. Ragan was assisted in entertaining by Mrs. W. G. Bradshow and the occasion was a very pleasant one In every particular. The following grandmothers graved the oc casion: Mesdames Dorsett, M. A. Tate, H. C. Kearns, Prof. Johnson, Capt. Johns, 8. Perry, Brow sr. Kirk man, J. H. Johnson, C. M. Chase and Donohue Smith. The proposed inter-urban line con necting High Point, Greensboro and Wtnston-Salem appears to be a cer tainty. The promoters mean business and are being encouraged by the towns Interested. It Is thought that ar rangements can be completed so that work can commence within 90 days at longest. Messrs. R. H. and R. A. Wheeler, the two High Point gentle men interested, are much pleased with the prospects and believe everything will be so adjusted that the project will materialize at the earliest possible moment, Among the distinguished men who will be present here next month at the banquet of the Manufacturers' Club are Secretary Metcalfe, of the Depart ment of Labor and Commerce; Senator Overman and Simmons, Congressman Page, Klchin, and Dixon with other members of the House, the Cuban Min ister, Vice President Tinley and M.
