NORTHERN STILL TO Plans to E^uild Extension Southward from Pres ent Terminus to Monti- ceilo, Fla. Yesterday’s Moultrie Observer con tains the following: ‘‘Mr. C. W. Ptdcock, president of the Georgia Northern, returned last night from a trip to Atlanta, Savannah and Jacksonville. He wan asked tilts morning about the .-"'plications being made for amendments to the charter of the road \ nut said ths t the company had decided to extend 111 line to Mon- tlcello, Fla., from Boston, a distance or eighteen miles. This extension will be to make connections with the Sea board at that point, thereby enabling them to get the pnssengor business to west Florida and Into Jacksonville. It was supposed that an understand ing laid been obtained with the Sea board for the exchange of business. It is known, ns least, that this would give the Georgia Northern connections with the Seaboard at both endB, and would till in a missing link between that system's Florida lines and the Georgia lines. ‘The road Is also asking for a char ter from Pavo to Quitman, and Mr. Ptdcock talked favorably about build ing this short ilne. One thing is sure, the Georgia Northern Is not through building and growing, “It would be very much to the con venience of the vest Florida mall and passenger service for the road to build to Monties llo. This would en able parties leaving here at 1 o’clock' to reach Tallahassee by 2:30, a run of two and a half hours. Tallahassee Is the gateway to that section. 33 MIDSHIPMEN ARE IN IMMINENT DANGER Of Expulsion From Naval Academy. President Appeals to Congress. Washington, Feb. 8.—The President has made public a letter urging upon Congress a modification of the law against hazing at the Naval Academy. Unless Congress shall amend the ex isting law against hazing, which makes mandatory the dismissal of any midshipman found guilty of any form of hazing, the Secretary of the Navy may be forced to dismiss thirty-three midshipmen from the Naval Academy within Nje next month, in addition to the eight who have already suffered this penalty and three whose cases are awaiting the decision of the de partment. Fourteen midshipmen have been tried, of whom two have been acquit ted. eight dismissed, one pardoned, while under sentence of dismissal, and another midshipman, Miner Meriweth er, Jr., whose case is now awaiting action by the department, has been found guilty- and recommended for pardon. The papers in the cases of Midship men Jules James, of Virginia, and W. T. Boyd, Jr.,*of Illinois, are before the department for execution of sen tence of dismissal. The investigating board has left with the superintendent of the academy evidence against thir ty-three other midshipmen, who will nrobably be ordered for courtmartial. The law will necessitate the.dismissal of each midshipman found guilty. The case of Midshipman Meriweth er. now before the secretary, will probably go before the President for consideration. The evidence in h!s trial for hazing as to the charadter of his rank is the ground on which the question of his pardon is being considered. President Roosevelt, in his letter, urges that legislation be enacted at the present session of Congress to regulate the punishment for hazing at the Naval Academy. The President holds out that, in some Instances, It is manifestly unjust to subject a mid shipman convicted of hazing to dis missal from the academy, as frequent ly the punishment is quite dispropor tionate to the offense committed. He suggests further that it Is an error to try a midshipman accused of hazing by courtmartial. His idea is that the power to deal with such cases ought to be lodged in some administrative officers or body to deal summarily with the cases. Copyright 1905 by Hart Schaffner & Marx It s So Easy! It’s quite easy for a salesmsn to have you “try on” a suit, take you before a mirror, pat your back and say, “Did you ever see a fit to equal that? Look at the way that collar hugs the neck. How well the shoulders set, ejjc.” But how about the wear oL the suit? Depends upon the tailoring-. What is to hold that collar in place, or to keep those shoulders in shape?
