raj ice season. There will hardly b.
any frozen ponds, skating or ice gath

DIR. moFERR1N AT HOME.
He is Now Pastor of Mulberry Street
Church, Macon, Ga

Rev. Jno. P. McFerrin, who re.
Gently transferred from the Tennessee
Conference to North Georgia Confer
ence is meeting with warm recep-
tions in his adopted State. He first
went TO Americas, Ga and when
the time came for him to go to his
appointment at Macon a local paper
had the following among other
things to say about him:
No man has ever ministered to a
people more .judiciously and more
satisfactorily than the learned Ten
nessee divine who comes of race of
men who are celebrated throughout
that State for their many virtues and
Christian ability.
The manner in which he was re-
ceived at Macon is told by the follow.
ing from a recent issue of the Macon
Telegraph:
The Rev. John p. McFerrin, the
recently appointed pastor of Null
berry Street Methodist church is
1'i'iiOi AdOiJ lOCdtCu Win Ills ldlIIlIy
at the parsonage and is at home to
all who may wish to meet him.
DR.. McFerrin arrived on the $3.50
train yesterday evening, and was
met at the depot by committee, land
a carriage conveyed himself and
family to his new home on Mulberry
stIeet.
An assemblage of ladies and gen
tlemen of the congregation met DIR.
McFerrin and family at the parson
aga, and babe them a hearty wei
come.
For several days the ladies Of the
Methodist church have been prepar-
ing the parsonage tor its new occu-
pants, and they have carpeted and
furnished and curtained it until it is
one of the cOsiest aud incest homes in
Macon. DR.. and Mrs. McFerrin and
their daughter, Mary, received many
visitors during the evening, and the
first night spent in the parsonage was
a very pleasant one.
DR.. McFerrin comes to Macon with
reputation for eloquence unsurpassed
by that of any other minister in the
city, and his salutatory sermon to be
delivered on Sunday morning, is
looked to with deep interest.

Street improvements.

There seems TO be a concentrated
effort on the part of merchants and
the chairman of the street committee
to make Franklin street model
thoroughfare. Chairman Gilbert has
a force at work to-day cleaning out
the cutters and scraping the street.
They are doing good work, and
should be given credit for it. Capt.
Crusman and Keesee & Northington
have caught the inspiration and are
putting down new pavements in
front of their business houses. 9th
ers will follow suit and if it is kept
up it will add much to the comfort
of pedestrians and to the appearance
of the thoroughfare. Let the good
work continue until every pavement
is put in good order.

THE IRON FURNACE
Destined to Awaken the Ma.
tives.
How the Work on the Big Enterprise is
Progressing-An Encouraging
Outlook.

The work on the great iron furnace
has hardly suspended day during
the winter, except for rain, when
men could not stand to work out. 1t
is astonishing how the work has pro-
crossed. The stock house is over
half completed the foundations for
the stove stack, furuace and engines
are all completed and the whole face
of the earth is covered with heavy
plate iron for the stoves and great
timbers ready framed for the outer
buildings. The machine shop, with
punches and drills, is kept busy, The
grading for five railroad tracks has
been completed and one track laid,
which is in daily use, running in
trains loaded with building stone,
iron, timbers, brick, sand, etc
Those who never saw one of these
large furnaces can hardly conceive
the immensely of one that is calcu-
lated to make $50 tons of iron per
day. Workmen are now engaged on
the stoves. There are three of these,
and they are warmers, built some
thing like our water tank, only Of
heavier iron and much stOuter, being
double riveted. These stoves sit on
solid stone foundations and are TWEEN
ty feet in diamster and tifty-siX feet
high. The stack is to be of same ma
terial seventeen feet in diameter at
the base and nine feet at the top, and
l75 feet high. One of the stoves is
now over half completed, that is
some thirty feet above ground. The
Workmen use sWing-scaffolds that
hang from the top, with rollers to
move around the circle, and are
quickly changed by the Workmen
without leaving the scaflold. They
have a small hand-furnace on the
scaffOld for heating the rivets used in
putting the structure together, weld
ing the pieces in solid mass. These
stoves are to be lined up with fire.
brick, and the whole structure will
require over million of brick, cost
ing some $4,000.
The calculation is to complete the
immense structure by the first of
May and be ready to commence oper-
ations as soon as the mineral road is
completed to the iron banks, which
the l.. & N. is trying to push through
by that time, and then we shall see
lively times around here that will
stir things as but few people have
dreamed of. Capt. Gracey says he
is going to have whistle on the fur
mace that will lift the people out OF
their beds earlier than they have
been used to rising. The south side
is going TO furnish the whistle, and
Smith Batson says they are going to
have one that will rouse the country
all around from Dickson to Dover,
HOpkinsvilIe and Springfield and the
grangers will hereafter farm on time.
When that whistle blows for morn
ing you will see mules breaking out
of the stable to get to the pillow,
and at noon they will skin out OF
harness for dinner. More than that,
they will be able to order rain on
time and make tobacco grow scien-
