CROWDS VISITING BOWLING ALLEY
The bowling alley located just across
from The Milledgeville News office is a
popular place with old and young and
every day there are good natured con
tests between the |best known citizens
of the town in ga struggle for .the
championship at bowling. There is one
feature about the bowling, and that is
the good order which is maintained,
that is seldom equalled in any other line
of entertainment.
The public can visit the place with as
surance that they will receive courteous
attention and there is no doubt but that
much good may be derived from the ex
ercise gained at the bowling alley. If
you haven’t visited the place go there
now and if you have visited it go again. ;

in length, and is situated about 450
miles northeast of Honolulu. All at
tempts to locate and sqrvey this island
by government vessels have so far fail
ed. At least a dozen ships have been
sent on this expedition, but none of
them found it or ever expect to.
The first report ever received of this
island was in 1883 when the three mast

down in that vicinity. This vessel sail

early part of 83 and has never been seen
or heerd from since.
It is the belief of some of the best
navigators in the world that this island
rises out of the bottom of the sea at the
beginning of an equinoxial storm and
ascends to the surface of the water;
distance of 2,400 fathoms, or nearly
three milles, with a velocity of 6,590
