One of the greatest railroad movements ever known will be achieved when the work aus piciously begun of changing the gauge of some thirteen thousand miles of railroad in the south is completed. A meeting of the representatives of the several southern roads interested in the change of gauge pepper, the bn’ance of cheap wheat dour colored yellow, makes 100 pounds of genuine mustard The higher grades, which aren't often retailed, contain as much as one-half of real mustard. But cream of tartar is the biggest swindle. A flftem pound can of the low grade contains one pound of tartaric acid and fourteen of terra alba. The terra alba is a mild alkali and neutralizes the effects of the acid. Higher grade ? of^Phe mixture contain a trifle more tartaric acid. “You probably think you've eaten some cinna mon in your time," the grocer went on. “Well, you haven’t. I don’t suppose there’s ten pounds of cinnamon baik in the J.’nited States. What parses for cinnamon is the bark of the cassia tree. The article is also mixed with peas and roast bran. I need not tell you about roast cof fee; everybody knows about that. It's just the same way through spices. If you could smuggle yourself into the basement of Home spice mill you would find bins of bran, peas; terra alba, etc.’’ it is this sort of thing which is going to blow manufacturing millionaires into pieces so small that they will never be put together again one of KNUI IKKR-M N 1M ItMMUNf.

The 4-foot 9-inch gauge is veniont, and. as a certain a is allowed on all tracks, it northern gauge to permit gauge all over the country. THE STANDARD GAUGE is now adopted all over the north, and uniformity has long been desired. The southern gauge has for many years past been a source of endless ex depot j penseand inconvenience to all the rail roads south of the Ohio and Potomac rivers, and while the advantages of a uniform gauge have long been rid'anl. * seen its adoption has now come to lie an impera- of.Mr. and Mrs. King tive necessity.

The change was perfected over this branch by 3 o’clock on the afternoon, and only three rails had to be cut on the curves. On the 28th and 29th several other branches were changed, and by June first the Central and its entire system will be narrowed down to the standard gauge. Among the branches that will be changed to-morrow are those between the following terminal points: Ma con to Columbus, Fort Valley to Albany, Hmitli- ville to Montgomery, Columbus to Goodwater, Col inn bus to Troy. The next day* the roads will be changed from Savannah to Atlanta, Eufuula lines. A Lurk) Change of Mind. Mr. Ed.

The fact that fifty thousand pounds of ice is daily manufactured in the city is a good incentive*toward keeping cool. There are two ice manufactories in the city- one with a capacity of five tons, the other of twenty tons per day. .Messrs. E. M. Walsh Co. inaugurated their ice establishment in order to make tlieir own ice as an auxiliary to other de partments of their establishment,but the demand has constantly grown until they find it profitable to manufacture for the public. The Columbus ice and refrigerating company has probably one of the most complete institutions of the kind in the country. They have u capacity of twenty tons a day and run up to full time. These two institutions furnish the fifty or sixty retail deal ers with all the ice they can sell. Talking about ice leads to the consoling reflec tion that Columbus is in the enjoyment of pecu liar and refreshing privileges in the way of pur chasing ice. Many remember, and only a few years ago, when the usual price of ice was three cents a pound, and when the crystal luxury was a little scarce it ran up to five cents a pound. During the last few years it has been sold at re tail at half a cent a pound or ten pounds for a nickel, delivered at your back door. If larger quantities are wanted it retails for forty cents a block of 100 pounds, and there are no indications that it will he any higher than this. Before ice was manufactured here, the lump of ice offered to a customer for ten cents could be conveniently carried in the palm of the hand, while a five cent block was scarcely larger than a Bland dollur, ho to speak, but that is changed now. A ten cent piece of ice will last a family of six or seven all day and night, while the nickle block is of re spectable dimensions. It is easy to see how those who buy their ice in small quantities are bene fited by this great reduction in the price. The Enquirkr-Sun had a long talk with Dr. Banks, the president of the Columbus Ice and —The Georgia Midland will soon he done, and the public library will soon be finished too, if our citizens do not help it by joining. —One dollar a quarter is but little to you, but the public library needs it, if you expect it to live. - A match game of base ball was played yester day afternoon between the Wick Millers and Joe Strausses, which resulted in a victory for the lat ter club by a score of 13 to 6. —The steamer Amos Hays arrived from Chatta hoochee last night, and will leave for the same place to-morrow morning at 10 o’clock. —A good rain fell Friday afternoon along the line of the Columbus and Rome railroad from Chipley to Greenville. —Sunday hours will be obs^ved at the post ofiice to-morrow, as it is national decoration Notice to Shipper*.

It is there that his wife and two sons are await ing the resurrection morn. The remains were accompanied by his three daughters, Mrs. T. 1L Moore, Mrs. Dr. Tennille and Miss Annie Butler. They were under the charge of Captain Moore, his son-in-law, who has been very kind to this good man in his declining years. Dr. Tennille met the boat at Eufaula yesterday and will also accompany tlie remains to their last resting place any obstructions even with the top of the tie for a space of not less than five inches from the rail that is to be moved in, so that when the change is made the bearing of the track will not be (le st royed. A BIG UNDERTAKING. It would strike one as a tremendous undertak ing to attempt to change in two or three days the gauge on a railroad from Columbus to Pekin, Chinn, supposing that the rails were built on an embankment across the Atlantic. But that is about how far the total lines would reach if stretched out end to end in one continuous line. The change of gauge will, of coure, necessitate the expenditure of a \ast amount of money, but this will be compensated for many times over by the immense advantages which will accrue from the adoption of a uniform gauge throughout the country. The past week has been a busy one with the the contractors on the Georgia Midland. The grading is being pushed rapidly, and the foice has been increased to do this work. Nothing is being left undom to push the work as rapidly as possible. Death From .Meningitis.

A good many people are under the impression that a severe winter, such as we had last year, makes plenty of ice. So it does; hut the effect on the cost is very little. You see, ice is made in abun dant quantities, no matter whether the winter is hard or mild. It is not so much the quantity of ice made that enters into the price as it is the cost of storing it and the quantity that is stored. There is not as much margin in ice as some peo ple peem to think, although the raw material, so to speak, costs nothing. The ice houses can a!- ways get all they want. It is the cost of labor and t lie freight -ates that regulate the price of ice. 1 j see no reason to apprehend an advance in any of | these this season, and I don’t think there will be i an\ advance in the price of ice on that account, ! besides the price of lake ice has nothing to do I with us. as there is not a pound of ice shipped to ] this city The above conversation occurred in the ofiice j of one of our brokers, and just as Di.
