PRESIDENT PLANT HERE.
Looking After His Railway Interests
in the South.

The Annual Meeting Of the Savannah
Florida and Western Railway To-
morrow-Mr, Plant Not After the
Port Royal and What He
Says About the New Florida Line.
President H B. Plant, of the Plant In
vestment Company, arrived in the city
yesterday from Charleston, He is stop
ping in his private car, which is stationed
under the shed of the Savannah, Florida
and Western railway.
President Plant is looking wonderfully
well, and, in fact, shows no decline of
that characteristic vigor usually attend
ing upon advancing years. On the other
hand his travels through the north during
the summer, the bracing climates of
Canada and Nova Scotia seem to have
given him a renewed energy and activity.
Besides Mr.. Plant, there are in the
party, Vice President H. S. Haines, of
the Plant Investment Company, Capt. d.
F. Jack, assistant to the president, Mr..
NJ. ]. O'Brien, general manager of the
Southern Express Company, and r. G.
Erwin, Esq, general counsel and vice
president Of the Savannah, Florida and
Wester Railway Company. The gentle
"
at least until after Tuesday, when the an
nual meeting of the stockholders of the
Savannah, Florida and Western,s TO be
held
Mr. Plant is on his way to Florida and
then to Montgomery and other points,
where he goes to look after the cOmpany's
interests.
Il am not yet posted on Florida affairs"
he said yesterday afternoon, when asked
about the outlook for the winters travel
and the situation around Port Tampa.
The hope, however, is father to the
thought" he continued, land | am of the
opinion that the season will be a good
one. The movement of oranges this year
is something wonderful, and far better
than ! had anticipated"
What about the report in some of the
Augusta papers that your company is
after the Port Royal and Augusta rail
roade" was asked.
Mr. Plant smiled. Somebody's fancy,
I suppose. 1 don't know what ] should
want with it"
''Do you expect the operation of the
new line from. Florida, the Florida Cen
trail and Peninsular, to affect you materi-
ally2"
Those things can be judged only by
experiment" was the reply, land we
can't tell until that has been tried OF
course, however, it is natural for two
such lines to divide the business when
they cover in part the same territory, but
to what extent it may be done cannot be
told until both are in actual operation"
Mr. Plant will be in the city until
Wednesday, or Thursday, when he will
leave for Florida. He will also visit
Thomasville aud Albany before returning
for the holidays.

Favart' to night. II is long time since
Miss Templeton was seen in Savannah,
although she is no stranger here The
New Orleans Picayune, in speaking of
MISS Templeton, says:
There was full audience to welcome
Fay Templeton, the populars prima donna
OF comic opera, upon her return to New
Orleans. She appeared in Offenbach's
opera in three acts, Mime Favart,' which
contains some pretty music, is full of
life and movement, and was supported
by an excellent company. Madame
Fayart' is one of Offenbach's most charm
ing and amusing operas, devoid of the
vulgarities of farce comedy, and can,
therefore, be enjoyed by theater-goers
who desire art, and not horse play ia
comic opera. Miss Templeton in her many
appearances--an actress, a street singer,
a lady's maid, a grande dame. peddler
boy and Venus rising from the sea-was
most fascinating, and was quite deserving
Of the applause bestowed upon her
throughout the evening. Miss Tenn
pletou is pleasing singer and sang her
numbers of the score with exquisite
taste Handsome and graceful, with spark
ling eyes, possessing a keen, delicious
sense of humor, fetching chic and aban-
don, she played the part most amirably."

WOULD NOT DISCUSS IT.
DR.. Drummer Reticent on the Subject
of Judge Mershon's Charges.

DR.. Drummer, who returned to the city
yesterday, had very little to say with re-
gard to the charges made against him by
Judge Mershon, of Brunswick, in the
House of Representatives
He was not inclined TO view them as
having much weight, at least until after
he has made inquiry, verified the reports
and found out just exactly what has and
what has not been said. What DR. Drummer
said, however, indicated that if he finds
the facts as reported he will not hesitate
to reply, and that too, strongly. He will
probably make inquiry at once as to just
what was said by Judge Mershon and the
circumstances surrounding it, but until
then he will say nothing.
Il do not care to discuss Judge Mer-
shon's statement" he said yesterday Il
want to know how far true the reports of
them are, and just what was said before
say anything at all. / have only this to
say, that have done nothing l regret,
and by that / will stand
DR.. Drummer was asked also if he
thought the conditions were ripe for re-
moving the quarantine from Brunswick
THE removal of the quarantine is a
matter for the sanitary board to decide"
was the reply. 1T may be some little time
yet before the conditions are ready to
warrant its removal"

Manager Golden Endeavoring to Ar
range for Another Foot Ball Contest.
MIR. Arthur M. Solomons, manager of
the Neurological school, foot ball eleven,
was in the city yesterday and held con-
sultation with Manager Golden, with re-
gard to game to be played here between
his team and the Savannah boys on
Christmas day.
1t was not fully decided as to
whether the game would come
off or not, but the chances
are strongly in favor of it. The Techno-
logical boys have beaten the University
team, and they are looking around for
new fields to conquer. Manager Golden
will endeavor to arrange with this team
for Christmas day game
in case the interest of the
people of Savannah in the sport warrants
it, and about that, it is thought, there will
be no doubt.
1t is true the university has been bea ten
by the Techs" but the Athens boys
have greatly strengthened their team
since that contest, and they will be able
next Thursday to put up much stronger
and more interesting game. Arrange
ments are being perfected for the contest,
and for the entertainment of the Athens
boys when they arrive. The University
Club has taken the matter in hand, and
Will see that it is a success.

THE CoUNTRY's STEAMBOATS,.
Nearly 5000 Engaged in Carrying
on Commerce.

Few people have much of an idea Of the
number of steam vessels in this country
In the Savannah district of the steam
boat inspection service there are 1913, with
a total net tonnage of over q, 600 tons and
manned by $50 licensed officers.
In the entire country there were
last year 1881 vessels, manned by
31,795 officers. The steam vessel service
is increasing at the rate of nearly 200
vessels a year. The increase in net ton
mage last year. according to the report of
the supervising inspector general of
steamboats,, was rs, COO tons. 1t is esti-
mated that between 100000, 900 and 100
100000 passengers were carried
last year and with loss of
life by accidents of various
causes of 22S persons. OF the number of
lives lost, only As were passengers, and
the remainder were officers or persons
employed on the steamers. OF those
killed, 2 were burned to death, % lost
their lives through collision; 81 through
explosions; g by sinking and wreck; IS
by accidental drowning, and
% from miscellaneous causes.
This number is very small, compared
with the number of passengers carried
and of the people employed, and shows
the efficiency of the government in its
supervision of the steam vessel service.
The number of vessels given above re-
fers only to those running on naviga BILE
waters. There are hundreds of vessels
on inland lakes and rivers that play an
important part in the commerce of the
country, and yet do not come under gov
eminent supervision, because they are
not in navigable waters.

The conversion Of children is attract

the Independent Presbyterian church
yesterday morning DR.. .Dripps preached
from the words, Thou Hast the Dew of

that IN the great majority Of cases in
which Christian life exists at all its
real beginnings may be traced back to

In giving notice of the meetings con-
Quoted by Rev T. p Hammond, Dr.
Dripps very heartily urged attendance

simplest and most direct way possible.

Of prayer for Gods own blessing upon all
such efforts, and said that Mr.. Hammond
himself, in all his worldwide work for
children through thirty years, has never
counted upon results in any other way
than that Of God s reply 20 such prayers.
Or. Hammond in illustrating the sub
jet Of redemption in one of his sermons
told this story; Alfred Beverly. of Dub
I'm, was said To have expressed mis- great
Joy at the successful LAYING of the At
lantic cable by redeeming a prisoner who
was held for debt. 1t was difficult to con-
vince the prisoner that he had been
really redeemed. and that he could, IN
molested, walk out of prison. When at
last he was actually ont Of prison, and he
realized that through the gentleman's
kindness ne had been fully redeemed by
the payment of the debt, he expressed his
Joy and gratitude. DR. Hammond applied
this to what Christ had done for US.
