Help*
To the Oitizeus of Thomasville:
I feel that It is doe the Mao m Presby*
ter\, every intejested citizen of Thom,
asvil o aud myself as w.ell that the nc-
tiou of the Presbytery ou Friday be em
phasized and explained.
I: would have rejoiced the heart of
every friend of Youn a's College to have
witnt*-eu the «nthusiatiu with which
the Presbytery responded to the s ate-
meut of the Bo&rd-of Trustees, through
Dr. McIntosh, aud to the appeal which
I imide for the support of the Presby-
i say that their response was unani-
in jus and enthusiastic is putting t he
case mildly indeed. Macou Pesbytery
stands forever abso ved from the charge
of lack of interest aud pupport. The
enthmiastio support of Presbyterians
is as hard to suppress as it is difficult
to arouse.
Their feeling towards the college is
based upon a full discussiou of the en
tire si 1 nation aud their realization of
the fact that they have the greatest
educational ..opportunity in the eutire
outh Tiioy realize uo lass fully their
ability to maze good the opportunity.
Sad 1 enthusiasm as was evidenced by
Presbytery's action is contagious. Iiu
mediately alter the discussiou was closed
Presbytery raised a certain $1038.50 to
wards the cun cut expenses of next year
with the practical certainty of $500 ad
ditional, bennies $200 towards book in
debtedness Nor ;was th»ir material
support by any means the imost impor
tant part of their action, By a resolu
tion. adopted unanimously,the churches'
are all iuformed* fully of the condi
tion of the Gollege and all of the Minis
ters aud Elders are self appointed agents
for the college.
Such action on the part .of a ,conser
vative body, can but result in great
things for Young’s College and I do not
doubt for one moment, in the light of
all facts before me, that within the next
five years Thomasville will have the
best aud strongest Institution in the
State,
Now this brings home a matter to you,
gentlemeu or Ti.omasville. After alt is
said and done, who will derive the great
est financial benefit from thy college?
Thomasville. Who tiie greatest educa
tional good? Thomasville. Who the
greatest amount of valuable advertising?
Thomasville.
Does it uot then appear to you that
Thomasville has a part to do, which
local pride aud self interest should urge
upouyonall? 1
Your generosity has been great in hie
past and your patience equally great.
We believe both are to be rewarded an
hundred fold, and at once. And wo
farther believe that we are making the
last appeal for money that will oyer be
mode to you, but do uot permit the
effort of the Board of Trade to raise the
$1200, for the advertising, which is ab
solutely essential, to fail. Mr. E. M.
Mallette or Mr. O. W. Cooper will take
your subscription-but don’t wait for
them to call on you.
With the earnest assurance that all
possible effort will be made "to realize
our tidiest expectations for the college
and with warmest thanks for your
support, I am—
Respectfully yours,
I. Cochran Hunt. |

BOSTON PYTHIANS
COMING IN FORCE
A new lodge of Knights of Pythias
was recently installed in Boston. The
Boston Times brings the news that a
large crowd of the newly created Knights
are coming here to the district con
vention on the 27th. The officers of the
Boston lodge are, David Comfort, O.

Thomasville had as her visitors
Thursday a party of gentlemen, whose
names arc parent in the world of fi-
wine*, and iu railroad circles. They
are Capt. Win. Green Raoul, II. M. At
kinson, and Pre<ron S. Arkwright, of
Atlaut.i, Archibald- Russell, Ed S.
Palmer and Percy R. Payne, of New
York. Gordon Abbott, of Boston, aud
Geo. Dole Wadley, of Waycross. Capt.
Raoul is president of the A. & B. Mr.
Wadley, vice-president and geuoral
manager, and Mie/iihor gentlemen are
connected with rbo directorate of the
road and the Cfld Colony Trusc Com
pany, ot Boston the financial i»ower be
hind the A. & B
The gentlemeu are ou a tour of their
road, coimug here from Fitzgerald ana
Brunswick. They are on uoaid two
private cars, one of the Atlanta aud
We*t l’oiut and one of the A, & B.
Thoir special train arrived at 5; 15 p.
m. They were met at Merrillville by
a committee of citizens, confuting of
Capt. John Hightower, ,1. H. Merrill,
President Leo Neel of the Board of
Trade and .1. D. McCartney. Carriages
wore.iu waning at the depot, aud the
visitors were tui.on lor a drive around
the city und mrougli the lmmedhito
country sui rounding. At nine o’clock
at night they were entertained at un
informal luuelieou aud smoker at the
Mitchell Houm». at which a number of
the town's most prominent citizous
were, present.
The interest iu their visit at this pr.r
ticular time is two-fold, ou account ot
the possibility of an extemio.i of the A.
& B. to Tallahassee and the Gulf of
Mexico. The citizens of Thomasville
realize that this is a matter of great im
portance to the town. They lost no op
portunity to impress upon the visitors
the desirability of this extension aud
the wiliiugne>s of Thomasville to holp.
No definite expressions coaid be ob
tained from 'he visitors ns to their pur
pose iu this regard. The trend of
their conversation, the questions they
asked, etc. are strong indications thut
they are thinking teriousiy of such a
move and oom-ider t a logical step iu the
development of the system.
Another matter discussed with the
visitors was the probability of the
northeast extension of the A. & B
to Augusta. Tnis mouth Capt. R:tou
purchased the Wadley aud Me. Ver
non. A short connecting link and a
consolidation of two or three roads,
would give the A. &.B.,au uiriiue from
Augusta to Fitzgerald, then on to
Thomasville. Its benefits to the s> stein
would be great, and ThonusviLe would
benefit by the consequent connection
with the Seabourd Air Line aii(^ direct
schedule* to New York for the winter
passenger traffic,
The gentlemen are enthusiastic over
the exteusiou now building to Birming
ham, from Montezuma. Thut will
drive over land from the latter town to
LaGrange, and inspect the work. This
is the theme that now occupies their
time and attention. It is an assured
fact that the A. and B. is to take its
place as a greater railroad system. The
steps iu this developemeut will be (1)
Extension from Montezuma to Birming
ham. (2) Extensiou from Fitzgerald to
Atlanta. (3) Exteutiou from Thomas
ville to the Gulf. Pure of this program is
already under way, none of it is an im
possibility, aud all of it coald^ be oo
assured fact withiu the near future.
All of the gentlemen were immensely
pleased with Thomasville. To some of
them it was a first visit, though Mr.
Arkwright went to school liere aud Mr.
Wadley is a Irequeut visitor.. ‘‘The
prettiest town we have seen.” •’The city
of roses’* "The hot-painted place we |
ever saw,” were some of their expres
sions.

OF PRESBYTERY MEETING
Thomatvllla Minister Is Also ElsOfttd
• Delogatoto General Assembly.
Excellent Reports*
Rev. 8. L. McCarty, pastor of tbs
Thomasville Presbytvriau church, wss
Thursday elected moderator of tbs moot
ing of Presbytery at Boston. Mr. Ms-
Carty U easily one of the leading minis
ters attending the meeting and his elect
ion ns presiding officer comes as no sur
prise to his many acquaintances who
are familiar with Ills Ability. Mr.
McCarty has unusual executiveaudbus-
iness nbility and it is but natural that
these qualities have gained him recogni
tion. Rev. Robt. L. Moye of Oothbert
wss elected clerk of the Presbytery.
The day was chiefly taken np by tbs
conference in hearing reports from the
different churches in the Presbytery.
These repot ts showed the ohurohea al
most without exception to be in improv
ed condition. The repo-1 from Thom-
nsville'a church ww especially satisfac
tory.
It developed during the day* that the
growth of the Presbytery daring tbs
past six months has been suoh as to en
title it for the first time to four delegates
to the meeting of the General Assemb
ly. This is the annual gathering of the
whole Southern church. It meets this
year in May at Fort Worth Tex. Mr.
McCarty, Rev, R. E. Douglas ot Bfaooo
and elders Bowen and Lowry of Maoon
were elected as delegatus.
A report was heard yesterday from
the Rochelle High Sohool whioh has
been under the tutelage of the Presby
tery just as Young's Female College.
The report was not acted on yesterday.
It will probably be taken up again to
day. A movement was started»some
time ago to have the Presbytery drop
the Rochelle school and centre all its
energies on Young’s College. Is is hard-
lv probable however that the movement
will be poshed.
Reports will be heard today from
Young's College and they are expeoted
to be full of interest. The Board of
Trustees of the oollege have been invit
ed to appear before the Presbytery Ibis
morning, and it is expected that at least
a part of the board will avail themsel
ves of tho opportunity.
The morning sermon yesterday wap
preached by Rev. J. W. Stokes of Dub
lin and the sermon last night by Revf
W. H. Zeigler of Albany. A number
of delegates arrived Thursday, pushing
the attendance np to whati is probably a
high water mark. Tha entertainment
provided by the Boston people contin
ues to be of tho happiest kind and Rev.
