DARIEN & WESTERN HAS
NOT CHANGED HANDS
But Will BE Extended and Greatly
Improved Very shortly.

y
Improved Very shortly.
The Darien and Western Railroad is
not to be sold, despite the report to
that effect. which has been current.
The road is to be developed, improv-
ed and extended, and work to this
end will be begun Immediately. Among
the intended improvements are the
laying of the present road with heavier
rail-, and the purchase of new equip
ment.
The new policy was fnaugurated sew
eral days ago at the annual meeting,
when four new directors were put on
the board, and when new officers were
put in charge of it's affairs. These
officers are: Donald Mackay, presi-
dent H. D. Emerson, vice president:
George D. Mackay, secretary and
treasurer, and F. H. MacFarland, su-
perintendent. Fhe new directors are
Donald Mackay, George D. Mackay,
Ii. D. Emerson and R. M. Hitch.
The new plans for the road are the
result of an investigation of the prop
erty, and its possibilities, recently
made by Mr.. Emerson, of New York,
who is an expert in all matters per-
tanning to railroads, and who in this
case represented the owners of the
property. His report showed that the
road is capable of being made very
much more valuable at a COMPARE
lively small outlay of money. His
views were accepted by the owners
who elected him vice president with
instructions to carry out his plans for
the betterment of the property.
The details of the extensions have
not been settled, but as Darien is an
important port itself, and its con-
tingent territory is rich in freight pro-
ducing material, chiefly lumber, it is
believed that a business can be de-
veloped, even along the present lines
that will make the road valuable
property. MIR. Emerson is now in
New York, but is expected to return to
Darien about March 5. He will i'm
mediately begin the work of improv-
ing the present road. The matters of
extensions will be taken up later.

SOUTHERN MARINES
ORDERED TO NAGASAKI.
sixty VIII Leave Port Royal for Far
East on March 10.

East on March 10.
The members of the United States
Marine Corps in charge of the Savan-
nah Recruiting Office, have received
WORD TO the effect that sixty marines
from the station at Port Royal will
leave. not later than March 10, for
Nagasaki. Japan. At that place they
will be put on duty about the Ameri-
can Consulate, strengthening the small
guard which is now there.
The men win leave Port Royal, and
proceed direct to Washington. From
there they will be taken to San Fran
cisco, and ship in "A transport for
the Far East. At the Philippine Is
lands, the transport will take aboard
other companies, to be stationed as
guards at the various consulates in the
war region in the East.
number of Georgians have been
sent from the Savannah Recruiting Of
fee to the Port Royal station, and it
is regarded as extremely probable that
the majority of them will be shipped
TO the Far East. The fact that they
are green men will make no difference
as they will have opportunity for COM
pleting their drill work in Japan.
1t is probable that Sergt. Montair,
formerly in charge of the Savannah
office viii go with the Southern men,
as he has already seen duty in that
part of the world.

CITY OFFICIALS
FAVOR SPEEDWAY.
Good Roads and Speedway Both
Heartily IndOrsed.

Good Roads and Speedway Both
Heartily IndOrsed.
All the city officials who have ex-
pressed an opinion are heartily in fav-
or of the speedway project, which
has several times been referred to in
the Morning News. Mayor Myers says
he thinks the speedway should be
built by all means.
Il do not know enough about the
Meridian road to say that the speed
way should be located there" the
Mayor explained, but we should have
a speedway somewhere. 1t is one of
several improvements needed here in
order to hold tourists. The people
come to Savannah, but after few
days stay there is nothing to amuse
them. With the speedway here it
would be different
Savannah by it's natural attrac-
tions, draws many visitors, but we
have not prepared to take care of
them after they arrive. There is much
of interest in and about the city, but
ittcan all be seen in q few days, and
unless some means of keeping the tour
lists amused is provided, we cannot
hope 20 hold them for any length of
time. The plan to have daily trips
to the points of interest about town
is one step in the right direction. The
speedway should follow. If we can
get fine speedway we would inter-
est many persons here through the
winter months. There are a number
of improvements that could be made
to make Savannah more interesting as
a tourist point and the speedway, I
believe, is the most important of
these"
The speedway and the good roads
movement should all go together, it
has been suggested. If the plans for
the improvement of the roads in this
and adjoining counties is carried out
it will be at no very distant date when
there will be a good road for automo-
bilists from Savannah to Florida. 1t
is thought the touring will prove pop
ular with winter visitors as well as
with Savannahians.
Alderman James M. Dixon is another
city official who favors both the speed
way and the good roads suggestions.
Mr.. Dixon is an enthusiastic automo-
bilist himself and he wants to see both
schemes carried through.
THAT speedway plan should be
pushed" he said. Il want to see 1t
built and I see no reason why 1t
should not be. Look at the number
of automobiles here now. With the
speedway here. the number of tourists
would materially increase. And the
tourists mean much to the city"

MEMBERSHIP IN CHURCH
WILL NOT SAVE SOULS.
Complete Surrender to God Is Neces-
sary, Said Rev. MIR. Mcconnell.

Complete Surrender to God Is Neces-
sary, Said Rev. MIR. Mcconnell.
Rev. Lincoln Mcconnell preached one
of the best sermons of his series at
Trinity Church last night. He took as
his subject the question which the rich
young man asked of Jesus: Good Mas
ter, what shall l do to inherit eternal
life?"
His proposition was that there is a
great difference between having eter-
nal life and being religious. A man
can have one and still be without the
other The words eternal life, shown
by translations from the original Greek,
are always associated with the works
which Jesus did for the persons with
whom He came in contact. He came to
give spiritual and eternal life.
The speaker discussed the PRINCIPLES
which the young ruler did not lack
specifying morality, church member
ship, and high position in the church.
Some people are always saying that
they belong to the church." said Mr..
Mcconnell, always placing the en-
phasis on the the as though there was
only one church. This young ruler
would have Said that he belonged to
th-th-the church.
THE claims of some people remind
me OF a peculiar animal which / saw
in Texas, kind of steer. The animal
contracts a disease when a calf which
effects him so that all he eats goes to
his horns. Some church members are
like these steers. They grow into great
horns. always pushing at some other
church. They are afflicted with what
might be called 'hornorocity.' Denomi-
nationalism is of God. but sectionalism
is of that other fellow"
The congregation was the largest
that has yet attended the meetings.

MORE TIME GIVEN
TO ARRANGE BOND.

VIII Not Be Pushed.

Mayor Says Contractor Leonard
VIII Not Be Pushed.
The city officials will give Mr.. S. 5.
Leonard, the contractor for the new
City Hall, time in which to give bond.
The fifteen days since the award was
made expired yesterday. There is
nothing in the Council resolution linn
iting the time allowed in which to
make bond. though it was understood
it was to be given within fifteen days.
The Mayor said Mr.. Leonard will be
given a reasonable time yet within
which TO furnish bond. II is said a
strong surety company has agreed to
go on the bond. and that the matter
will be closed up very shortly. Mr..
Leonard, himself, has gone on to Bal
timore to see about the surety. Mean
while the sub-contractorS are proceed
ing Just as if the matter were closed.
There are quite Il number of carloads
of material already on the way here.
The delay in giving the bond will de-
lay the removal of the city offices to
police headquarters, and it is probable
now that another meeting of Council
will be held in the old building.
