of the largest and most suc
cessfully conducted excursions that
ever come to Macon was that of the
Georgia Southern and Florida Hall
way Company run yestreday from Val
dosta and intermediate points to this
city for the visitors to the Orphans*
Home of the South Georgia Conference
of the Methodist Episcopal Church
South.
This excursion was in chnrge of Mr.
\V. W. Webb of Hahira, Ga. The
crowds came in two sections, one train
bringing ten cars and anotheV bring
ing fourteen. They arrived between 11
and 12 o’clock and the greater number
went Immediately to the grounds of the
home in Vlneville.
Of the 3,00 or more who came on
the excursion about 2.000 were at the
exercises held for the visitors at the
home. These exercises were presided
over by the superintendent of the
home. Mr. J. T. Dozier. The programme
was as follows:
Song and prayer by Rev. J. H.
Scruggs, pastor of Vlneville Methodist
church. This was followed by the in
troductory remarks from Supt. J. T.
Dozier.
Address—Rev. W. L. Walker, pastor
of Vlneville Baptist church.
Dinner—The Bprend was on the
tables under the tree* In the groves.
It was a. basket dinner supplied by
the excursionists. About 2.000 people
were at this dinner.
In the afternoon the buildings and
grounds of the home were Inspected
by the visitors. The addresses of the
afternoon to the visitors were short,
but Interesting. Those who spoke wero
Messrs. W. G. Solomon. R. F. Burden.
W. A. Huckerbeo and W. W. Webb. A
large tent had been erected on tho
grounds nnd tho exercises were hold
under this.
The children at the home served
lemonade and Ice water to the visitors.
They also did the singing at the morn
ing exercises. The Ifahlra brass band
furnished the music for the excur
sionists on the way and took part also
at the grounds.
Eevery visitor on the excursion
seemed happy nnd the trip to Mncon
was an occasion of plensure to almost
all the crowds who came.
There was strict orderliness on the
streets and among tho visitors. The
pollco authorities havo stated that they
had never seen an excursion which
took the town with ns little disturbance
as this one.
The return was" mode at 4:30 and
6:30 o’clock yesterday afternoon. Tho
trains went back In two sections and
when tho hour for departure came the
union station was crowded almost be
yond clenring. All the afternoon the
visitors flocked to tho station and
when the departure was taken all went
out without any mishaps.
Another excursion will come to Mn
con In the Interest of the Methodist
Orphans’ home on Friday of next week.
It will be run over the Macon, Dublin
and Savannah railroad from Vldalla
nnd Intermediate points. It Is expect
ed that the visiting crowds will «?-
tend In fully an large numbers as were
here yesterday.
Mr. R. F. Burden of this city has got-
ton up a comploto history of the Meth
odist Orphans’ Home. He- Is at pres
ent chairman of the ooard of trustees.
Ills statement of the facts relative to
the foundation and growth of the in
stitution Is given below. The history
will be of Interest throughout the stato:
