BRIEF imES OF MIEREST
; GATHERED HERE AND THERE
: Our correspondent from Broad

ot our newsgathers at JMWuaa, Pinetown
and several other points. These
letters are interesting news disseminators
and are read by hundreds of
people who like to keep in touch'
with currnt happenings.
We are not daffodiling with Xfr.
\ Luther Burbank that creates new
, 'fruits and the like, but a man who
u comes Into the town and fills up on
i pur good llcker and writes back
home that everybody else is drunk
why Isn't he a Nbwberry?
From an undercurrent wp are
, towed up. the stream to the npper
end of town where we bear whtaper '
Inge that substantial improvements
' are going to be made this spring. As
, the tide recedes we fall against the
piers at the lower end of town ^nd
are pointed to some vacant epota that

- adoing about the* time th0 ground
bog cornea out to make his next observations.
All along the line everything
looks good untO we bump
up against U? ?mrt Hot**, nn4 bar.

This plan would. In my opiotya, !

. ment, this would "be better than' a
