nahians took it in, and the shows were
not crowded at all Inc Streets Of Carlo,
Win the eouchee-couchee dance, which
still fourishes Undisturbed, had the larg-
est patronage. The dance is equal to the
description In fact, il is not possible to
describe il fully in a family newspaper
like the Morning News. Several members
of the legislature were on hand, for the
purpose, of course, of ascertaining wheth-
er the dance is as heinOus in character
as II has been pictured to be. There
were many ladies as well. There are
some pretty fair shows on the Midway,
put hardly any of them give the visitor
his moneys worth. A quarter is the price
charged by most Of them, and there are
hardly any of them worth it.
The Plant day exercises, which took
place at the auditorium and the reception
which followed were fully described in
yesterdays Morning News. 1t was a gen
uine ovation to Mr.. Plant, which would
nave been a surprise to anyone unac-
quainted with the high esteem in which
the head of the great system is held by
his employees. Mr. Plant was received with
an applause when he entered the building,
and every mention of his name and the
work accomplished by him by the va
rlous speakers was responded to with ap
plause. When Mr.. Plant spoke he was
listened to with the closest attention. II
was plain, common sense talk.
After thanking them for the reception
given him he assured his employees OF his
pleasure at being able TO afford them the
pleasure of attending the great eXhibi-
ton, Of which he spoke in the highest
terms. He alluded to the duties of The
great railway systems, to the public and
their employees, and told them how this
duty would be fulfilled by the careful
performance by every emplOye of his
duty. He told them that all property
entrusted to their care for transpOrta-
ton should be as carefully guarded as if
ii were their own, and that every patron
should be treated with every courtesy.
That Mr.. Plants remarks on this line
were appreciated by the employees was
shown by the applause with which they
greeted them. Among other speakers was
Judge Falligant of Savannah, whose elo-
quence aroused much enthusiasm.
Al the close of the exercises Vice Presi-
dent HemphiH of the exposition company,
who acted as chairman of the meeting, in
the absence of President Collier, an
nounced for Mr. Plant that all the en-
ployes in attendance upon the exposition
would be granted leave of absence for an
other day, and that the excursion would
be continued until Tuesday night Those
who wanted to return home, however,
would be provided for. There was some
confusion at the time and the announce
ment was not understood. The employees
fairly beseged Passenger Traffic Manager
Wrenn at the Plant building during the
afternoon to find out when they were to
go home. Col. Wrknn had supposed that
the whole excursion would go over until
wanted to return to their homes that he
was compelled to arrange to run one of
the specials out that night
The return home was without incident.
Most of the employees who returned we're
too badly broken up by their two nights
on the road and the day on their feet in
Atlanta to give much attention to their
though, and will not soon be forgotten by
them
