MERCED'S DAY.
It Was Greatly Enjoyed by the Large
Number of Students Present.
The Atlanta Eposltlon has in the last
three or four days reached tho zenith
of all her expected glory and among
the many thousands who have lately
witnessed the magnificence of Atlanta's
triumph there were nono who enjoyed
tho sights more or to a greater extent
than tho boys of Mercer. ,
The students have nearly all returned
from tho big show and they are all
full to the brim 6f "what I saw." ’Tho
few days of vacation that tho hoys
have so pleasantly. spent In Atlanta
have been looked forward to with great
anticipation. For one reason, that there
would bo no midnight oil to burn over
either Greek nor mathematics: for an
other, that their dreams and visions of
tho gay dancing girls on the much-
hcard-of Midway would all be realized.
Mercer’s Day at the fair was cele
brated In a delightful manner and
much Interest was shown by the alumni
of the college In the celebration. Tho
speeches made were all good, and
greater was the enjoyment of them
from the fact that they were delivered
by the ex-presidents of the Institution
and tho alumni, who years ago left her
halls to win proud laurels on tho field
of public life. Dr. Gambrell presided,
and In pleasant style Introduced ns the
first speaker ex-Governor McDaniel.
Mr. McDaniel spoke with admiration
of Mercer’s past, and his words were
those of Inspiration to the ambltloue
youth.
Ex-Governor Northern who Is also an
alumnus of the college, and. there
fore, could not with propriety
speak of the great achievements
of Mercer's sons, took the Opposite
course and pictured with much pride
the possibility* of bis alma mater.
• After these two speakers came Dr.
Battle and then Dr. Nunnally. ' It Is
needless to say that these gentleman
were greeted with loud ovations. They
both have warm places In the hearts
of the Bapltst denomination each hav
ing occupied tho president's chair of
this great Institution for several years.
I>r. Henry McDonald, with charac
teristic eloquence, made the closing
speech, after which all left the meet
ing well satisfied with the splendidly
carried out programme.
THE STOWAWAY.
That Sterling English Melodrama to
Arpear Thursday at the Academy.
There are some theatrical attractions
that are not affected In the lcaat de
gree by the shifting public taste. One
\of these Is "The Stowaway," that
standard English drama which has
done a uniformly large business fur
the psst six seasons and which Is a
pleasure to announce for next Thurs
day In this city. ' Whether the fad of
the hour has been society comedies or
serpentine 'dances, "The Stowawsy"
has drawn crowds of unvarying magni
tude and enthusiasm. The managers
have equipped It handsomely this year
and ap exceptionally strong company
appears In IL "Spike” Hennessey and
••Kid” McCoy are still the safe break
ers of "The Stowaway.” and In the
company are talented actors and ac
tresses.
