President of Bethel Female College to Re-
tire at the End of His Five Years Term.
Rev. DR.. T. Simpson Mccall, Pres
ideut of Bethel Female College, of
this city, has rendered his resigna-
tion to the Board of Trustees, to take
effect in June, when the current
school year ends,
DR.. Mccall came to this city from
Glasgow, KY, in June 1891, where he
had conducted a fourishing school
for several years. Bethel Female
College had been suspended for one
} ear, following the death of Prof j.
W. Rust, and after substantial inn
provements had been made in the
buildings the trustees entered into
arrangements with DR.. Mccall. He
came to Hopkinsville in June and
opened the fall session early in Sep
TENDER with about 30 boarding pu-
pills.. The school was at once placed
upon prosperous basis, and each
succeeding year showed a marked in
crease in the attendance, although
the years 1893 and 1894 were es-
pecially trying on all kinds of bust
ness by reason of the hard times.

Judge Jno- r. Grace was taken

thought he was stricken with apo

journed and physician summoned,

pronounced out of danger. His

from indigestion. He was able to be

the United States. She was the fastest
vessel of her class at that time. and she
is running now on the route between Port
Tampa, Key West and Havana, carrying
the West India fast mail. In 1887 Mr..
Plant had built, from his own idea of
model, the steamship Olivette the fastest
of her class then. When he suggested this
model he put the widest part of the mid
ship section forward of amidships. The
celebrated Cramp firm built her, but posi-
lively refused to guarantee the speed re-
quired on the model demanded by Mr..
Plant, so he ran his pen through that part
of the contract which referred 10 her
speed, remarking at the time to the presi-
dent of the Cramp Company. Mark what
l tell you, this will be the fastest steam
ship which your firm has ever built as
yet, and that was proven to be the fact,
when the Olivette beat all competitors
from Sandy Hook to the Battery, during
the great International yacht race of 1887.
La Grand Duchesse, the new creation Of
Mr.. Plant has her widest part twenty
five feet forward of amidships, and he ex-
poets equally as good results as the Oil
Vette developed, a she has made over sew

SCOTCHMEN'S GALA NIGHT.
ST. ANDREWS MEN DRINK HOT
SCOTCH AND EAT HAGGIS.

| The st. Andrews SOciety's Dinner in
Honor of the one Hundred and
Forty-SIxth Anniversary Patrf-
otto Speeches and Songs Fill the
Hearts of Loyal Scots with Enthu-
siasm and JOllity.
St. Andrews day yesterday was without
doubt one of the brightest and plcasantest
the Scotchmen of Savannah have ever
known. Cold and dreary without, though
it may have been, the sons of the High
lands and their friends only made the mer-
rier within.
They began their day with their annual
meeting in their quarters over the Chatham
Bank. The members were very much in
evidence at the meeting, though it was
held merely for the purpose of installing
the newly elected officers, which ceremony
was followed by an interesting social gath
ering. President T. F. Thompson be-
came ex-president as soon as he turned
the gavel over to President John r. Young
After the installation of the officers, Pres
dent Young read a number of letters and
kilograms of greeting from Scotch socie-
ties in all parts of the country. and some
from absent members, to many of which
the society sent replies.
The annual dinner at the De Soto was
zone that will be memorable in the history
of st. Andrews society. For the time be-
ing, everybody there was Scotch, and
things Scotch alone were thought Of

Blasts. Cheers and Fireworks as
She Steamed Up the River-To Re
open to visitors Tomorrow.
La Grande Duchesse's first voyage to a
southern port was made in sunless wealth
er From the time the new coaster left her
pier In New York at o'clock Saturday
until she was made fast at the Ocean
steamship dock at $50 o'clock last night,
she had steamed through fog, mist and
rain without ray of sunshine.
The uncertainty as to the time she pass
ed out of Sandy Hook interfered with the
calculations upon the arrival of the new
vessel here. A sharp lookout was kept for
her all day. At 2:S0 o'clock she was sight
ed off the outer bar and an hour later was
at anchor in the roads. Her electric
steering geer had become deranged and
caused slight delay but she was soon
under way, and passed quarantine at 5
O'Clock. In an hour she was at her wharf.
It was dark and raining heavily when she
passed the city, but along the wharf peo-
Pile had gathered to catch a glimpse of the

Fireworks were set off from the balconies
overlooking the wharves, and river men
shouted themselves hoarse. The pilot
boat ]. H. Estill, which lay off the bar, and
was the first to sight the new ship, had all
her colors set, and saluted her as she pass
ed in.
In spite of the ugly weather. and the fact
that she went fifty miles out of her course,
keeping well to sea, La Grande Duchesse's
first voyage in commission was a most
satisfactory one. She steamed steadily
from fifteen to fifteen and a half knots
with ease. No effort was made to drive
her. Had she been pushed, she would

elect, congratulatory of Cleveland, and In
| the hope and trust that Mckinley would
give the country what is expected, an
able administration of the government.
The Star Spangled Banner" and Bon
ME Scotland" go well together, the one In
song and the other in eloquent speech in
the response of Hon. T. NJ. Norwood to
the toast. 'The Land O. Cakes and Rob-
bic Burns" Judge Norwood paid one of
the most eloquent of tributes to Burns. No
one, wherever he may be, he said, ever
thinks of Scotland, Caledonia or the high
lands without thinking Of Robert Burns.
Brighter, nobler man was never born of
woman. He was the genius of Scotland,
genius of his own order, and there was
foundation to his character as solid as the
! hills. If the Bible we're lost and the pull
pit we're deserted, and youth would study
and practice that philosophy and morality
taught by Burns in a letter to friend,
the world would be a paradise compared
to what 1t is to-day.
Mr. Thomas Ballantyne, one of ST. An
drew's strongest pillars, entertained the
company with one of his most famous
songs, "A wee Drappy o't," and all acted
on the suggestion. In the meantime the
Scotch snuff was going around and sneez-
ing was in order.
Savannah, the Home Of Our Adoption"
received a response by Mr.. Pleasant A.
Stovall in his characteristic strong and
eloquent manner. He spoke of the gath
ering here since the landing of Oglethorpe
of emigrants from the old world and the
new. Next to the love of the land where
we first saw the light is a deep and abid-
ing regard and admiration for the home
of our adoption. No more loyal citizens
can be found than those who claim Sa-
vannah as their adopted home No cast
or clique bars the way to the patient
merit of the worthy. Here Clan Alpin and
Clan Cameron dwell together in unity,
and all are friends. We have seen her
rise above all her troubles, as beautiful
as Juno from the sea in the sunlight of a
reminding prosperity He appealed for an
organization of industries and of COM
merce, but above ALL he said, let us strive
for the unity of our people.
Hon. p. W. Medrim was called back to
Atlanta on account of his legislative du-
ties, and Mr.. 2. J. O'Connor was called on
in his stead to respond to the toast "Our

Sister Societies" AS a member of the
dibernian society, and one who knows
what good fellowship is, there could have
been no better choice for the response to
this toast. Mr.. OConnor made a bright
and interesting address, and one that was
more than enjoyed by all of his hearers.
The response to the toast 1.-THE Press"
was made by Mr.. j. F. Lewis of the Morn
ping News.
Hon. Pope Barrow made one of his
ksplendid responses to the toast the Bench
and Bar" He compared the work of the
bench and bar to that of the soldier in the
| field. He spoke of the work of the bench
and bar in building the government and
it's constitution and said their influence
for good was second only to that of the
pulpit. Some reproach the lawyer with
unfolding criminality, because, they say,
the lawyer turns away from no man who
| seeks his counsel, no matter whether he
is guilty or not. 1t is the sworn duty of
the lawyer, he said, to turn away no man
because Of his poverty, and to bow down
to no man because of his opulence or
power. Every man, no mater how guilty,
as entitled to a fair trial. and he cannot
have it unless he has the advice of coun-
sell In speaking of the bench, he took
occasion to compliment the recent selec-
ton of associate justices of the supreme
court by the democratic convention. He
said the wisest method of selectin judges
was by appointment by the governor with
confirmation by the Senate, and he be-
lieVed a Judge should sit upon the bench
during his natural life.

seemed perpetually young. Mr. Mercer
made a most humorous address, cornpar-
ing the hot scotch to the waters of per-
petual youth.
and saying that he had observed ii had
made the invited guests some years
younger. Mr.. Mercer closed with a beau
tiful tribute to the hospitality of the
Scotchman, and their other noble and
characteristic traits.
In the absence of Mr.. j. r. Saussy. who
could not be present on account of illness
in his family, Mr. Aeneas S. WAY was
called upon TO respond to the toast, "a
the Bonnie Lassies." Mr.. Ways response
was bright and characteristic of the
speaker and was an excellent tribute 10
womanhood.
The programme of toasts was inter
spersed with songs Il by Messrs. W. f.
Blois, w. A. Reaves, Thomas ]. Dykes.
Julian Walker and a quartette composed
of Messrs. Walker. Blois, Reaves and
Demmond The singing was one of the
strongest features of the evenings enter

appauded to the echo. The Scotchmen
did not adjourn until nearly o'clock.
