Their Trip to Dixie's Land-Arrival i'm
acknowledgement for To-Day.
Yesterday Major Geo. A. Whitehead,
General Freight and Passenger Agent of
the Central Railroad, Colonel j. II. Estill,
of the MORNING News, and Mr.. B. H.
Richardson, of the Savannah Times, left
on the 800 a. m. train for Millen, to meet
and welcome the Ohio Editorial AssOcia-
ton, who, having closed their session at
Dayton, had accepted an invitation of the
several railroads extending from the
Ohio to the Savannah and the st. Johns,
TO make an excursion to the Sunny South.
The day was not very promising,
except that IL promised rain, and when
the up and down trains met at Millen the
rain was falling, which made the weather
appear as though the OhiOans had
brought a snow storm along and it was
melting on the way. However, a
miniature reception committee and the
three ear loads of editors, and the
pleasure of the meeting made the journey
appear very short. Arriving in the city,
buses and hacks took the party to their
quarters at the Marshall House, where
''mine hOst'' Bresnan was ready to pro-
vide for their comfort.

day last by the Cincinnati Southern Rail-
road, travelling by day and lying over at
night. They arrived in Atlanta on Friday
evening, and left Saturday at p. m, for
Macon, in which city they stopped over
that evening, leaving yesterday morning
for this city. Mr.. j. G. Shaw, of the Cen
trail, had charge of the gentlemen of the
press from Atlanta here, and looked after
them as he knows so well how to do, with
credit to himself and honor to the Central.
At IL O'Clock this morning carriages will
be in waiting at the Marshall House, and
the OhiOans and their families will be af-
forded an opportunity of seeing the ''FOrest
City," the drive terminating, for the time,
at the extensive wharyes of the Ocean
Steamship Company, where, after an in
spectIOn of the machinery, cotton presses,
vessels, etc, they will be ''wined and
dined" in true Georgia style in the cabin of
the steamship Tallahassee. Colonel VIM.
Rogers, Superintendent, and Major Geo.
4. Whitehead, the General Freight
and Passenger Agent of the Central Rail-
road, will act as hosts on the occasion.
At the close of the festivities the party
will be driven to the depot of the Savan-
nah, Florida and Western Railway, where
their special train will be in waiting.
There they will be handed over to the
care of that corporation, who will see
that they find the remainder of their trip
as pleasant as the preceding portions.
