A Beautiful Map.
The reporter happened to see the
beautiful map of the “Vatoysten Plan
tation," drawn for S. R. VaoDazer,
by Messrs. Tbrupp & Thiupp, jester-
The place is "more familiarly
known as “Greenteood,” the former
home of Mr. Thomas Joees, two miles,
from town on the river road. The
new name, “Vatoysten,” is, we under
stand, a family name 0! the owner,
slightly transposed.
Mr. VanDuzer has made the old
plantation blossom like the rose.
There is, perhaps,, not a plantation to
the county under-such thorough cul
tivation. There are, h> the "tract,
1560 acres, of which 335 are in a high
state of cultivation. The remainder
in woodland. Numerous, broad
and well laid" ofi drives, skirting fields,
woodlands, groves, lawns, and seques
tered dells, carries one all oven the
big old plantation.
Hr. VaoDuzet has purchased some-'
thing over one hundred acres from Mr.
Stamper, adjoining hit .valuable prop
erty, making Ms acreage nearly seven
teen hundred acres. It ia a most
valuable estate. ‘'Greenwood,” in
ante helium days, was a typical south
ern home, a home where darkeys, by
the hundreds, swarmed, sang in their
cosy cabins, hunted the ’possum, play*
the banjo, aod was carefully cared
for by their owners. Like so maoy
other southern homes, hospitality
reigned every day in the year at
‘Greenwood.” But the war came on,
the slaves were heed, and the old
plantation, around which so many
delightful memories still linger with
those who enjoyed the princely hospi
tality of the place, was neglected.
Everything has changed. Only the
sweet and tender memories of those
other days remain. Under the new
order ot things, this old plantation
promises to be, as in the ‘‘long ago,"
one of the most attractive places in
Southern Georgia.

This city was the scene of two fires
on Monday night, which was some
thing very nnnsnal. The first alarm
was sounded about one o’colck, and a
bright light near thePincy Woods
Hotel caused many to think that that
honse was on fire, and no time was
lost by anyone in reaching the scene.
The fire, however, this in the next
block, and proved to be a servants
honse in Gov. Merriam’s yard. The
structure was a small one, and was ah
most destroyed before the department
reached the scene, notwithstanding
they responded to the alarm promptly.
There was no insurance on the build
ing, bat the lass is not a heavy one.

terrible. The fire was in the neigh
borhood of the first conflagration, be
ing in the warehouse of Mr. 0. H.

sponded promptly and did good work
in saving the adjoining bnildings, bat

Gorton’s Minstrels.
Gorton’s Minstrels played to a good
audience at the opera house Tuesday
evening and gave a very creditable
performance. The audience was <
very appreciative one and was unnsn-
ally liberal in its applause. The mu
sic and singing was very good indeed,
as was a’eo the dancing. The jokes,
as a rale, had a rather chestnut-
ty flavor about them, but they seem
ed to please the gallery immensely.
Nearly every specialty was encored.
The best feature of the show, in the
opinion of many, were the fat men;
the clog dancing and the club swing
ing by De Witt Cook, who is appro
priately put down on the programme
as the king of clnbg. The show, taken
asja whole, is about an average of the
minstrels that visit Thomasviile. Bet
ter companies have been here, eq
have many infinitely worse. The au
dience was pleased with the perform
ance and when the show comes here
again next year we expect to see even
a larger house.

THE CANNING FACTORY.
The Meeting of the Committee
Yesterday Morning.
The committee, appointed at the
citizens' meeting to solicit stock lor
the establishment of a canning factory
in Thomasviile, met yesterday morns
ing, and besides mapping out other
work, added a number of names to
the committee. The committee, as
amended, is as follows:
H. W. Hopkins, John L. Finn,
Thomas & Dickinson, John Triplett,
E. M. Mallette, Wm. Campbell,'Bon-
dnrant & Peacock, S. L. Hayes, J. W.
Reid.B. H. Wright,R. L. Hicks & Co.
E,A.Nesbit,W. S. Keefer, B. W. Stone,
J.-M. Lee and J. T. Chastain. Each
of these gentlemen is supplied with a
subscription book, and will gladly re
ceive the names of any who may be
willing to aid in an enterprise that
will materially add to the prosperity
of the county and pay a handsome
profited the investment. From the best
information we have been able to gath
er all the canning factories through
out the Sontb are paying handsomely
—some of them as much as thirty per
cent. We have before stated that if
Thomas county oould secure a good
cannery by giving the capital stock, it
would be a wise investment, bnt from
the lights before tt>, (the experience of
other towns that have made the experi
ment) there are tew enterprises that
•Ol pay abetteror more certain profit.
The time to which the question of e*>
tablishtog a factory to work up the
forthcoming crop is short, and we
trust that all who are wtlliog to aid in
this much needed enterprise will
promptly call on any one of the com
mittee. They are giving their time to
this matter, and if you are willing to
aid the undertaking, don’t wait to be
called on, but come forward prompt
ly and take what stock yon can.

Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 641,1804.
After the most earnest and persist
ent efiort on our part, we regret to
announce that the railroads have de
clined to issue passes to delegates to
our session of the Society,which meets
at Brunswick Feb. r4.
Every influence possible has been
invoked to induce the roads to recon
sider their action, without favorable
result.
The best terms offered is two cents
a mile each • way—four cents for
round trip.
We koow these conventions and onr
State Fans vastly benefit every inter
est in our State, the railroads more
than any other. While some desire
to grant the passes, they are prevent
ed by the action of a majority.
We earnestly hope that as many as
can do so will attend anyway, and

material prosperity of Georgia.

The Last Service.
The prayer meeting service Wed
nesday evening" at the Baptist church
was well attended by the members of
the church. This was the last ser
vice that will he held to that build
ing, the motion to move into the new
church at once having been adopted
by the members immediately after
the regular services. Therefore,
hereafter all services will be held in
the new church, corner Broad and
Washington streets. The opening
s:rmoa will be preached by Dr.
Goodwyn, of Savannah, in the Meth.
olist church Sunday morning. The
isrvicee will be held there on account
of the limited seating capacity of that
portion of the new church which has
been finished, and to view of the fact
that so many of onr people will want
to hear the distinguished preacher.
Dr. Goodwyn win preach in the Sun
day School room of the new church
on Sunday evening. - We hope to
giye onr readers some time in the
near future, the history of the old
Baptist ehureh.

Savannah yesterday is the sensation
of the day in this city and section.
As eariy as five o’clock in the after
noon crowds began to assemble at the
Station to greet the train which has
won for the Herald the greatest piece
of newspaper enterprise ever at
tempted in the South, The train
left Jacksonville from the Savannah,
Florida and Western depot, which is
nearly five mile3 from the *cene of
the fight, at nine minutes past three,
and made the run of 172 miles in
three hours and two minutes, actual
running time. The fastest time on
the trip was made in a distance of
thirty-five miles in thirty four minutes.
The-officiate are jubilant over the
time made, which ia the beston record
the redd.
The train consisted of the engine
and one coach, the later being Vice-
President Htine’s private car, special
ly tendered to the Herald. This car
in charge ot condnctor W. H.
Wright, who usually tons the' Florida
and New York vestibule, and one of
the meet polite and attentive employes
of the road. Engineer R. J. Walsh,
who handled the throttle of engine
No. 60, is one of the most reliable
engineers of the Sooth and is known
a man to make a record for fast
time alsrays. He is the hero ot the
road bwday and said to me to-night:
“Tell the Herald I would have made
the trip to 180 mtontee but for a hot
eccentric whioh delayed ns over twen-
minutes.” Baades the Herald
men on the train were H. E. Hutch
ins, assistant master of transportation
of the Savannah, Florida and Wes
tern railroad, and H. C. McFadden,
chief clerk to general passenger agent
WT M. Davidson. On all rides can
be heard nothing but words of praise
and surprise that the Herald should
accomplish such a wonderful feat of
gathering news. At all tho hotels
test night the talk waa of the Herald’s
special fast flyer.
WHAT THE NEWS SAYS.
The Morning News today said:
‘‘Before seven o’clock last night the
Herald’s special train over the Sa
vannah, Florida and Western Rail
road was in Savannah with its special
correspondents aboard, making the
running time in three hours and two
mtantes, a distance of 172 miles. The
object of the Herald correspondents
in taking a special train- to reach
8avanhah was to secure possession of
the Postal Telegraph Cable Company’s
wires nt this point, there being only
one office at Jacksonville, that of the
Western Union. All arrangements
for the train had been made before
the fight. As soon as it was over a
carriage with two fast horses, which
had been in waiting, waa taken by the
correspondents and trainmen and fast
time made to the depot, where the
train was to waiting.
FLEW FAST THE TROOF3.
‘•The train shot by the Georgia
troops, who were drawn up in line
along ride the track at Folkston, at
the rate of sixty miles as hour. The
aoldiere probably thought the fighters
were aboard, as they gaz-:d at the
train with longing eyes.’
The arrival of the train at the
Savannah, Florida and Western de
pot created considerable excitement,
aa the crowd there felt certain that
the champion was aboard. It was
mistake however, as the train brought
only a handful of enterprising news
paper men and equally enterprising
railroadmen.”
WHY THE HERALD “GETS THEBE.”
Speaking of the Herald’s splendid
achievement, Pleasant A. Stovall,
editor of the Savannah Evening
Frees, says: “The Herald’s special
train yesterday waa a piece of news
paper enterprise that fairly dazzles the
people down here. It has divided
interests with the Corbett fight Peo
ple now understand why the Herald
‘gets there’ first with the most news.'
The Herald’e big brat was truly
the talk of the town and all along the
line of the road. Superintendent R.
G. Fleming and traffic manager C. D.
Owens, together with general pasaen-
ger agent William M. Davidson, the
officials oi the Plant system, have
been untiring to their efiorta to make
the Herald’s special so sncceafnL In
