THE SEABOARD
WILL BE SOLD
Southern Syndicate Seeking
Control of the System.
JOHN SHELTON WILLIAMS
This Prominent Young Railroad Ex-
ecutivc Said TO Be rat tho Head of
the Deal $500 IL share offered for
Common Stock vice-President
~. John Knew Nothing About II,
Untt he Read Press DI.pat ch

The fact that a. strong syndicate has
been organized and made an offer for
controlling interest in the Seaboard
Air Line system, was the occasion OF n
great deal of talk and speculation
among business and financial men or
this city and Norfolk yesterday. The
offer of purchase was made Tuesday,
in Baltimore, to Mr.. r. Curzon Hoff-
man, president of the Seaboard Air
Line, and it is said will go to the stock
holders with that officials recommen-
dation that it be accepted It is I'M
derstood that there arc about $500
shares of the common stock, for which
5000 Il share is offered, its par value
being only 500.
EFFECT HERE AND IN NORFOLK.
Very naturally much interest is felt
in the matter here. as at present
Portsmouth is the northern terminus
of the system.
Vice President st. John was seen.
and said he knew nothing or the al
legged purchase. When asked what eff
feet 1t would have on business here,
he SnappiShly replied that he could not
discuss the question. From perfectly
reliable sources, however, the following
information was cleaned:
a control of the Seaboard Air Line
carries with 1t the control of the Bal
timore Steam Packet Company, which
operates the Bay Line between Balti-
more, Old Point, Portsmouth and Nor
folk. The company also has large in
terests in the Old Dominion Steamship
Company, which supplies the New York
connection for the Seaboard sir Line
Considerable Norfolk and Ports
mouth capital will be interested in the
purchase and. of course, these. gentle
men will look afteh the interests OF
the people here. While the system will
control an all-rail route from Balti-
more via Richmond to Atlanta, much of
the business will come via water route
ana Norfolk and Portsmouth. and as
the system will be greatly enlarged, the
business will naturally be increased

TINY TOKENS.
The murmur of a waterfall

ltlF
A mile away, ~
The rustic when robin lights
Upon a spray,
The tapping of a lowland stream
On dipping boughs,
The sound of grazing from a herd
OF gentle COWS,
The echo from q wooded hill
OF cuckoo's call,
The culver through the meadow grass
At evening fall.
Too subtle are these harmonies,
For pen and rule;
Such music is not understood
BY any school.
But when the brain Is overwrought
1t hath q spell
Beyond all human skill and power
To make it well.
The memory of kindly word
For long gone by,
The fragrance of a fading flower
Sent lovingly.
The cleaning of sudden smile
Or sudden tear
The warmer pressure Of the hands,
The tone Of cheer
The hush that means IT cannot speak
But have heard!'
The note that only hears verse
From Gods own word;
Such tiny things we hardly count
AS ministry,
The givers deeming they have shown
Scant sympathy:
But, when the heart Is ovcrwrought,
oh, who can tell
The power of such tiny things
To make 1t we'll!
