Tho Southern railway officials will bo
Uown from Atlanta today bn a Koncral
Inspection of tho linen. They will arrive
In Macon about noon and upend an hour
or bo here and then proceed down the

Superintendent Horn wont up to At**
lanta yesterday and will accompany fie
officials down. Tho other officials of the
East Tennessee anti railroad men gen
erally in Macbn will Join in making the
few hours' stay of the visitors a pleas
ant ore.
The East Tennomeo men hero havo
been very much relieved since the an
nouncement made from headquarters
that nobody would be dropped by tho
new management. All the mun are how
usaured that unless they desire to ills-
ctaitlnue eorvlco they will be retained
und comparatively few, if any. changes
will bo made.
* There In one thing that may take
place which would alter tho «hapo of
the present management of the line, tt
may bo that the M&con offleo will be
removed to Atlanta aud Superintendent
Horn given charge of tho wholo system
fthin Chattanooga to Brunswick. If this
'is done there will bo only one superin-
.tendency between Chattanooga and
BJrunswick, which, while it would raise
'in Importance tho ofllcu of the nun
.who was made superintendent. It would
be a responsibility that few men could
uphold. 8uch a thing is not without
precedent, however. There fus a time
when tho entire lino from Chattanooga
to Brunswick was under the supetin-
tendency of one man.
The men boro are too much wedded to
Macon to desire a change and do not
look with favor ut>on even a possibility
of huvlmt their base removed to At
lanta. It la not thought to be very Ilka*
Jy that tho change will take place and
it U not very mucin desired by the
tnen hero tlrnt U may.

merely a transient greeting, but a per
manent abiding In your heart and life.
He wants to bo done with this matter
qf repeated Introduct.’jns and casual ac-
Uiulntance. He wants Mercer to be
taken Into close companionship nnd no

ly formal or perfunctlonnry. He cornea

of an Institution that has and must

In spite of the inclement weather
last night a large audience gathered at
the tabernacle. Dr. Romlg selected for
bis text the 19th verse of the 16th chap
ter of First Corinthians—“Watch yc
stand Coat in the faith, quit you like
men, be strong.” The speaker made
an earnest appeal to 'the church and
tnose woo had recently been converted
,o Christ through ilia teachings to
Stand Arm in the position they lrad
taken. He »ald that he felt sure
that those wuo bod come into Che
church had mads a full surrender and
had come to Christ, and not to him;
Shat they would carry on the work af
ter 'Obey 'hod gone and build up a large
and InHuenxial congregation—^one ‘that
would be faithful to the teachings of
the Bible, and that would set an ex
ample which would redound to the
honor and glory qf Owl. He said 'that
wherever he had been and organized
und built up churches, 'those who were
converted to CnrisC under his teach
ing almost Invariably remained true to
Cheir convictions and coukl not be sha'
ken or turned ttwuy from the truth -us
it wus in Jesus Ohnst. Toe doctor
spoke of 'the great victory icne church
hud won for Christ In bringing so many
souls to Jesus, and he earnestly exhort
ed them to continue the good work
after .ne had gone, and to broaden and
widen their iulluvnce tn all directions.
At. the conclusion of 'the sermon two
persons came forward and united with
vne ohurch, after 'Which 'the right hand
of fellowship was extended to all who
hod recently 'been baptised. Every
member of the church participated in
this general handshaking, and ' the
new converts were made 'to feel that
they were 'welcome and would receive
the sympathy and encoutugoment of
one ohurch In 'their efforts to serve the
Master.
Dr. Romlg'Will go to Fort Valley this
morning, and tho doctor will preach
taere tonight and tomorrow night. On
Kunday morning the evangelists will
return, and there will be preaching at.
tae Ualbernacle both morning and
night. Sunduy will witness the lost of
Wiese services. Dr. Romig will remain
over Sunday for the purpose of ordain
ing e.ders and deacons and setting
things in order before dually leaving
tho city. The good will and prayers
of all Christian people will go with
him to his new ile.d of labor.
At the close of the. services last night
Dr.'Romlg stated that he desired to
specially 'thank tho Macon Telegraph
for the excellent reports It had given of
the meetings, und for the courteous
manner in which he and Professor
Dowdy had been 'treated by this paper.
In toil of his meetings elsewhere the
papers generally hud given his meet
ings liberal notices, but the Telegraph
had excelled them till.
There have been 104 additions to the
church.
The following resolution of thanks
was mid by Mr. Marion Erwin:
