Success.
The Festival Choral Society held its
first rehearsal at the Young Mems Chris
tian Association gymnasium hall last
night, AS was anticipated it was one of
the most delightful musical entertain
ments that has been given in Savannah
since the last Spring festival under the
direction of DR.. Palmer
1t was more than re-
hearsal in the common acceptance
OF the term. 1t was really a concert of a
high order at which the compositions of
the master composers were rendered in a
manner that surprised and delighted
every one, singers and auditors. Profes-

mary rehearsals in charge and has con

careful attention to the work,

which the difficult compositions were
rendered.
a more cultured audience than that
which gathered by invitation of the
society is seldom seen in Savannah. 1t
was composed of people who appreciate
music as an art, The choruses were
that is seldom known. The
music was almost entirely choral and
concerted, consisting,of solos, duets, trios,
quartettes for mixed and ladies' voices,
male choruses, part songs, glees and full
choruses from the great composers. 1t
is impracticable TO mention the pro-
gramme in any other than in general
way Every part was well sung, and
every selection was enthusiastically re-

A CROWD FOR BEAUFORT.

Five Thousand People See Two
Steamer Loads Of Excursionists OFF.
A crowd of about 5000 colored people
gathered along the wharves last night to
bid bon voyage to two steamboat loads of
excursionists, who left for Beaufort to at
tend the memorial exercises to be held
there today.
The Alpha, Gov. Stafford and Bellevue
were chartered, but the first two named
were all that got away. The Bellevue
was out of repair, and could not get
ready for the trip.
The crowd began to gather early in the
evening and increased up to midnight.
when the boats pulled out from the
wharves. The Gov. Stafford was the first
to leave. She had about all she could
conveniently carry, including a brass
band and many thousand wicbes,
The Alpha left soon after with a large
crowd, and soon led the way for the other
boat on the route to Beaufort
The crowd was well behaved, consider
ing the large and unusual numbers. 1t
was throng of women, mingled with a
mass Of multifarious men. The situation
on the docks was exciting, and as the
jam grew greater many would have gone
overheard had it not been for a high
board fence, which was built along the
edge of the wharf to keep stragglers from
getting on board without ticket Sey-
eral boys managed to get on the steamers
from small boats, but were soon hustled
on shore by the officers, who were spe-
c1ally deputlZed to keep order.

a QUESTION, OF ITS CHARTER.
Has the Coast Line the Right to Build
a Track ON the Wa tara Rnad

mas the coast Line the Right to Build
Track on the Waters RoadP
Commissioners Charlton, Chaplin and
Carson, composing the committee on
roads and bridges of the county commits
sioners, met Capt. J. H. Johnston, presi-
dent of the City and Suburban and Coast
Line railroads, yesterday afternoon for
the purpose of looking into the matter of
allowing the Coast Line railroad to build
a spur track from their line out on the
Waters road to point near the base ball
park
The commissioners were taken out to
the point in car by Capt. Johnston, and
1t was shown just what the Coast Line
contemplated doing. IL is desired to run a
spur track from the main line down to the
Waters road for distance of about three
blocks to point near the new base ball
park.
After looking over the ground Commits
SIOner Carson raised the question as TO
whether the commissioners had the right
to grant permission for the road to build
such track without the authority of the
legislature. The question was as to
whether there is "a clause in the roads
charter which gives IL the right to build
such a track on this public highway after
the consent of the commissioners has been
given. The action of the legislature in
seems, is prerequisite to the permission
OF the commissioners to build such a
track. The understanding with the COM
mlttee and Capt. Johnston was that the
latter was to look up the authority given
the road by its charter obtained from the
legislature, and if the commissioners
were authorized to grant them the power
IN their discretion, the committee would
then make report to the board. Other
wise, 1t would be unnecessary for the
committee to make any report whatever
with regard to the matter.
Another interesting question has been
brought up in this connection and that is,
the right of the Electric railway to cross
the Waters road. The spur track from
this line to the base ball park crosses the
waters road at point some distance
from where the line itself runs along this
public highway. This matter has been
referred TO MIR. j. r. Saussy, the county
attorney, who has been asked to report to
the board whether the Electric railway
had any authority from its charter to
make this crossing.
Upon the CUES tion of the right of the
Coast Line road to build a spur track on
the Waters road depends the making of
any report at all by the committee What
the report would be is entirely another
matter. OF course none of the members
OF the committee would express any
opinion about it yesterday, as they will
not desire TO say anything until their re-
port is made to the board Some of them,
however, are in favor of giving all parties
fair showing provided they can do so
legally, and at the same time accomplish
some good for the county.
