SCoTSMEN HONOR ST. ANDREW
HIS PIOUs AND IMMORTAL
MEMORY.

brilliant Banquet of the st. Andrews
society in Celebration of It's 147th
Anniversary-Haggi and Hot
Scotch Features of the Feast-One
Hundred and Fifty scOtchmen ana
Their Guests at the Dinner.
Every scotchman in Savannah and every
Scotchmans friend had a good excuse
yesterday. The pious and immortal mem
DRY of the good St. Andrew was celebrat-
ed as 1t has not been celebrated before in
years and if the smoky odor of Sc
ductive Scotch is any criterion, it was not
forgotten for a moment
Moontime witnessed the annual gathering
of the Scotchman, members of St. Andrews
Society, in their hall over the Chatham
Bank There the usual routine business
was disposed of, and the informal inltia-
ton of three new members was under
taken with much success. OF that the
new members were thoroughly satisfied.
The final arrangements for the dinner,
the Nth anniversary celebration of the
society had already been made by the stew
ards, Messrs A. C. Scott Henry McAlpin,
and Joseph Marshall, but st. Andrews
memory did not have to wait upon that
for the beginning Of the celebration. From
mornings dawn to midnight, and for
some time after he was foremost in every
mind Of Scotch descent, and number Of
Others of Scotch ascent.
Ian Maclaren would have thought him
self at home in the corridors of the De
Soto last night shortly after o'clock. 1t
seemed as though there were the dialects
of forty clans, marked by as many plaids.
BY $50 O'Clock nearly $50 members and
guests of ST. Andrews Society were
gathered there, and in a few moments
more, to the strains of orchestral music.

EPWORTH LEAGUERs RALLY.
Stirring Addresses Upon the Work of
the Society.


The Epworth League rally at Grace
Methodist church last night was largely
attended by members of the leagues of
the Methodist churches of the city. The
service was one intended to bring the
leagues together for the purpose of con-
secration and stirring more enthusiasm
among the members. The programme con-
sisted of songs and addresses calculated
to inspire the leaguers and prompt them
to renewed vigor and earnestness in the
work
AS a factor in church work the Epworth
League has become very important and
has grown numerically until it now COM
prehends thousands OF young people in the
Methodist churches of the country. The
watch-word, Look up; lift up has
found its way into nearly every town
where this church is established, and the
result has been the accomplishment of in
estimable good in the line of church work
It's organization is the fulfllment of the
idea Of John Wesley.
After the preliminary part of the pro-
gramme. Rev. Mr.. Glenn addressed the
leagues on the duties of Christians ana
the manner in which they should pursue
their work. He related many personal in
cidents to illustrate the thoughts he ad-
Vanced, and spoke with emphasis about
the aid the leagues were giving the
churches.
Rev. J. T. Ryder, pastor of Grace church
occupied the remainder of the time and
spoke of the church as a unit and the pre-
server of this unit. In the beginning, he
said, the Lord observed the disagreement
and confusion which obtained among the
people. Nothing good could come to man
If such a condition offchaos was to con-
tinue. The people were reconciled and
while there were many creeds and denomi-
nations. the center around which all
churches clustered was the gospel truth
Jesus Christ, he said, is the one master of
human nature and ii is His knowledge
that will hold the church in unity. one
God, the father Of all, who is above all
through all and who knew all, Is the pow
er behind the church, holding it together
The church would be discovered, he said
If this work were left to man. The sublime
thought of God being father over all was
spoken of at some length, and the ad-
dress concluded with an earnest appeal to
the leagues to help in the preservation of
this church unity.

containing many new ingredients; there
was hot Scotch, cold Scotch and punch a

delightful courses, all permeated with
Scotch. In fact, permeation was another
of the Scotch characteristics. Intermin-
gled with all was an abundance of good
fellowship, and every guest felt
like the politician--he was in the hands of
his friends. The cup of good. cheer was
overlooking, and ali went merry as a mar
riage bell.

and announced the first regular toast that
TO St. Andrew, which has always held
first place on the Scotchmen's annual pro.
gramme.
The honoring of her national saint was
one of the chief charac teristics of Scot
lands people, said Rev. j. Y Fair. who
responded to the first regular toast. ''ThA
Pious and Immortal Memory of st. An
drew" He remarked upon the PECULIARLY
of the fact that the prototype of the
Scotch people should be found in St An
drew. 1t indicates that there
is running through the Scottish char
acter q morality which is the basis of its
strength and its success. 1t was eminentIy
proper that such should have been the
case, that the sturdy, upright principles
for which st. Andrew stood, should have
become the principles of the Scottish peo-
pie. The moral instinct running through
the Scottish people, he regarded the crown
of Scotland's glory, the foundation of her
greatness, and the reason why St Andrew
came to be patron saint of people, whose
national stability is famed the world over.
The basis Of that national stability. he
said, was the morality of the people. His
tribute was an eloquent one, showing the
strength of the Scottish character. and
why st. Andrew should have been selected
as the moral type, since the nations great
ness, its power, its conference, it's stability
