SEEKING An INJUNCTION.
To Prevent the Central From Filling
in the Track to the WaterwOrIzs.

A petition has been filed in the Superior
Court asking for an injunction against
the Florida Central and Peninsular Rail-
road and the Central of Georgia Railway
Company to prevent them from filing in
the trestle work leading into the city
which is now used by the Florida Central
and Pennsular Railroad as a main line.
This work was to have been done I'm ac-
cordance with a recent resolution of the
City Council which granted that permits
sion on application of the Central of Geor-
gia Railway Company. The suit for in
junction was filed by Messrs. Saussy &
Sauesy, representing the estate of Edward
Lowell.
Some time In 1898 this tract was built
through two lots in the Springfield plan
tation belonging to this estate for the pur-
pose of transporting material to the new
water works which was then being built.
Materials We're transported there at the
rate of 81 per car.
An arrangement was afterwards made
between the Central and the Florida Cen
trail and Peninsular Railroad by which the
latter was allowed TO use ii as its main
line In entering the city, and 1t was also
used in transporting cars for the city to
the water works.
In 1894 a suit was filed against the Cen
trail charging trespass, In that the lands
were taken without condemnation proceed
ings, and the suit resulted in a mistrial.
The suit is still pending. Ejectment pro-
ceedngs were also instituted by the estate
of Lowell, and that suit is also pending.
At a recent NEE ting of Council, the city
agreed to allow the Central TO occupy this
rlght-of-way and to fill in the trestle, taxi
ing up as much space as was needed for
that purpose, and providing that the Cen
trail should transport materials for the city
at the rate OF 81 per car.
The estate of Lowell is now seeking to
enjon the Central Railroad from the use
and occupation of this land without com
pensauon. 1t was understood when this
track was built that the occupation Of the
land was TO be temporary only and efforts
have been made to recover it, The petit
ton for a temporary injunction viii prob
ably come up before Judge Faulgant for
a hearing as soon as he returns from Nc
Iutosh county.

YAMACRAW's STREET MEETINGS.
Crowds of People Listened to Revs
Love and Smith,

crowds of People Listened to Reys.
Love and Smith.
Savannah has perhaps not recently wit
messed more remarkable religious scene
than that which has attended the street
meetings by Dr. Love in Yamacraw. Lii
orally, thousands of people have flocked
TO these meetings, many of whom rarely
ever attend church. Yamacraw was well
chosen, for preaching seems to be needed
there II needed anywhere In the city.
Or. Love was assisted yesterday by DR..
Smith, and Revs. Daughtry, Robinson and
Clark. The meeting was a most entbusi-
astic one. DR.. Love read from the third
chapter of St Johns gospel the story OF
Nicodemus. He took for his text these
words: For God so loved the world cha,
ne gave his only begotton Son, that who
soeVer believeth in Him should not perish
but have everlasting life" He discussed
God S love to the world" and Gods Gift
to the world"
DR.. Love is evidently doing good among
his people by these meetings. Rev. Smits,
spoke of faith as the means by which
tne sinner comes into possession of tha
love and gift of God
Sunday before last many heard tba
preacher discuss THE Neglecting of tba
Great Salvation"
Rev. Love will not hold meetings naV-t
Sunday but viii perhaps resume SOM
ume IN the future, when he homes ~

SPOKE OF THE ASCENSION.
Sermon of Rev. F. f. Reese of Macon
Mt ST. Lnhn,a Church

Sermon of Rev. r. f. Reese of Macon
at st. Johns Church.
Rev. Frederick F. Reese of Christ
Church, Macon preached at St. Johns
Church last night, his subject being THE
Ascension and Its Meaning" He took his
text from Acts Xxx, 9.
Rev. Mr.. Reeses sermon dealt with the
necessity of connecting the ascension with
human life, and especially the events OF
Christ's earthly life. so that they should
be not only the facts of history, but forces
and powers in the work of redemption The
ascension, he said. is the assumption into
heaven, to the right hand of God.
He spoke of the fact that there is too
much of a disposition on the part Of men
to place too small value on the life OF
fellowman, a tendency which makes man
thlnk meanly of his fellow being. This
led TO a tendency he said to withdraw
the interest in higher things, and a feel
ing Tor nobler aspira tons. The proper end
and object of human life is to sit with
Christ In the end on the right hand of
God.
Every man has his ideal, and he should
look up to IT, The ideal which a man has
before him is the most precious thing he
has, and the more precious is 1t if thar
ideal is the exalted and the ascended
Christ. Such an ideal Is a mans best
treasure and II Is to that he must look
for comfort and for strength.

A newspaper published jointly by the
citizens of two rival towns is rather an
unusual phenomenon, but such is the case
with the South Georgia Home, a hricbr
little, elght-page weekly from Southwest
Georgia. The Pelham-Meigs Publishing
Company, which gets out the Home is a
stock company, composed of a number of
citizens of the two towns Pelham and
Meigs, on the Plant System, between al
bany and Townsville. MIR. John T, Hearn
editor and manager of this publication IS
in the city. He says that only the best
natured rivalry exists between the two
towns, and that his paper is run in the in
terest of both places. Mr.. Hearn spealxs
enthusiastically of the outlook for The
watermelon crop, which promises to be an
unusually large one. Grape culture is also
an important industry in that section. Pei
ham is connected with all the large cite.
in Georgia, except Savannah by long

Interesting Exercises by Christ, st.
NIichnePs and st. Andrews Children.
The Easter anniversary of Christ Church
Sunday School and also st. Michaers and
st Andrews Sunday Schools, was held
yesterday afternoon at Christ Church.
The celebrations were not held on Easter
Sunday, owing to the unfinished condition
bf the church at that time, but were. post
poned until its restoration was completed.
An attractive programme of hymns,
prayers and presentation Of banners was
presented.
Bishop Nelson made the children an ad-
dress, taking for his subject the present
season of the church year, Ascension
tide. He cited Jacobs ladder as an exam
pie of how they should always strive 10
climb upwards. He asked many questions
which were readily answered by the schol-
ars, who showed that they have been thor
oughiy instructed by their teachers.
Rev. RobD White, rector Of Christ
Church, followed the bishop with a talk
to the children. He told them the anec-
dote of a young man OF Milan, who posed
for picture of Christ, and afterwards
when he had become monster of sin and
wickeduess, posed for the same painter as
Judas Iscariot.
The annual report of Superintendent Ed
ward s. Elliott showed an enrolment of lSt
scholars an increase over the previous
year of twenty-four. OF this number. 12l
are in the main school and 81 in the in
