FERRY FROM DOCK TO DOCK.
WATER LINE TO BE OPERATED
ALONG THE RIVER FRONT.
Petition for the Incorporation of the
Dock Ferry Company
Ha.i Been Filed in tiie Superior
Court—The Com puny Intend* to
Opi*nte a. Line of Modern Ferry
Boi/te From the Plnnt System
Wharves to Those of the Central
HaiKiway and to the Manufaetur-
Rff Plants Further I p the River,
rhijte Will Be Cheap Fares and
/onfenient Schedules,
potion for the incorporation of the
Avannah Dock Ferry Company has been
filed in the Superior Court and is being
advertised in compliance with law. When
the plans of this prospective corporation
are placed in successful operation they
will rtrult in material advantage to the
shippitfo interests of the port.
The fp<etitioners named in the plea fc.r
incorporadon are William W. Mackall of
Savamiih, R. G. Erwin of New York;
John fiKelton Williams of Richmond, Yau,
Jacob Paulsen, J.. F. Minis, Henry C.
J. A. G. Carson, Beirrue
Gordon, and W. A. Bisbee of Savannah.
The capital stock to be employed in the
busineili is the sum of s.£>,oo) and the
period for which, the company desires to
exercise corporate powers and privileges
is fifty years. The names of the men at
the head of the new enterprise make as
surance doubly sure that the corporate
plans and intentions will be carried into
full effect.
It is proposed to operate a line of com
modious and convenient ferry boats along
the - river front of Savannah, from the
Plant System wharves on the east to the
Central Railway wharves and he manu
facturing plants situated further up the
river on the west. The boats will ply from
one end of the proposed route to the oth
er. in accordance with a schedule that will
meet with the convenience of patron? and
the demands of travel, stopping at the
various docks on both sides of the river.
The main stopping places, of course, w 11
be the three great terminals, these of the
Plant System, the Georgia and Alabama
and the Central of Georgia Railways.
It is thought by the promoters of the
enterprise that the operation of the ferry
line will be of material advantage to those
interested in shipping along the river
ffont and particularly to mariners and
others, whose business calls them to ves
sels anchored far up or down the river
and who desire to reach the central sec
tion of the city. There are many also who
work at these places, and nothing could
be devised that would bring them to the
business quarter of the town more quick
ly and pleasantly than the line of ferries.
The fare will be made moderate, to the
end that the line may become popular
from the first. The boats will be of the
best class and will be able to make the
trip from on© end of the line to the other
In quick time. The schedule will be a
convenient one. so that, there will be no
irksome nor unnecessary delays for those
who are expected to become patrons of
the company.
Mr. W. W. Mackall. one of the incorpora
tors and a leading spirit in the enterprise,
was asked yesterday to give to the Morn
ing News an outline of the plans the
company intended to follow. Other than
the. general idea of the company’s purposes
that is sketched above he said he was
not. in a position to give information, as
the details would have to receive the con
sideration and would be dependent upon
the determination of the stockholders or
directors of the new corporation, after its
charter had been granted by the Superior
Court.
It will be a month before the charter
can be obtained legally, and not before
that time will the company be formally
organized. As soon thereafter as possi
ble. however, it is proposed to place the
line in operation .and the necessary vessels
will be purchased, with all other needed
facilities for the convenient handling of
passengers, at once. Mr Mack.ill could
not say just how* many ferry boats would
be used by the company, but there will
be sufficient, he did say. to meet every de
mand of travel.
The enterprise is an entirely new* one in
Savannah, but its very newness bespeak?
the confidence the incorporators have in
the future of the city and the certainty of
its growth and the Immediate and healthy
expansion of its trade and commerce.
That these shrewd business men should
be of this fixed opinion is a matter of en
couragement for the less sanguine of their
brethren and of discomfiture to the small
aggregation of Doubting Thomases who
scent disaster in every passing breeze.
FORMALLY TIRAED OVER.
Gforg;itt Telephone Company \ow in
Kail Charge of the riant.
The Georgia Telephone plant was for
mally turned over to the company yes

* OLOREO BAPTISTS IN SESSION.
; Missionary Baptist Convention Has
-•NG Delegate* Here.
! The Missionary Baptist Convention of
! Georgia, representing thousands of the
colored people of that denomination, is
in session in Savannah at the First Afri
can Baptist Church. Two hundred and
fifty delegates from all parts of the state
are in attendance upon this, the thirtieth
session, of the convention.
The convention was called to order by
Vice President C. S. Wilkins of Augusta.
Devotional and business sessions are in
progress morning, afternoon and evening.
Rev. A. S. Staley of Americus, is the
secretary of the convention.
Out of respect to the memory of the
late Rev. E. K. Love, who was president
of the convention for a number of years,
it was determined that no election of offi
cers should be held, but that the present
officers should hold over another year, the
vice president performing the duties of
the presidency. Asa further mark of
respect it was decided that each delegate
to the convention should wear a badge */f
mourning for Rev. Love, for a period of
ninety days.
Encouraging reports were received from
Central City College, at Macon, which
was founded bv the late president of the
convention, and prospered under his pa
tronage. For this reason the conven
tion feels a special interest in its wel
fare. For its support the sum of $1,184.42
has been raised since the convention has
been in session, and it is expected that
this amount of money will be considerably
augmented before the adjournment 4s
taken.
To-day has been set apart for the ex
ercises of the Woman’s Missionary So
ciety, an auxiliary organization of the
convention. The session will he continued
until Sunday evening, when the adjourn
ment for the year will be taken. The or
ganization l? one of the largest and most
influential among the religious bodies of
the colored people of Georgia.

SECRO WAS BADLY SHOT.
J. Frierson Attempted to Disarm
Patrolman l)a, is Willi 311 IteenllN.
A negro who rejoices in the name of J.
Frierson was 6hot and seriously wound
ed by Officer R. T. Davis et an early hour
this morning. While on the way to the
station house under arrest Frierson at
tempted to resist and disarm the officer
and the shooting was the immediate con
sequence of this attempt.
Patrolman Davis had entered the negro s
house in Oglethorpe lane, near Houston
street, for the purpose of searching for
another party. The negro allowed the
officer to enter, but after he was inside
commenced to abuse and .curse him in a
way that Davis could not and would not
tolerate. He told Frierson he would have
to accompany him to the station hou3e
ami the march began.
As he left the house the negro saw 'he
offiee-’s revolver and attempted to take
it away. There was a struggle in the
street and, seeing that the negro might
possibly he successful and that the diffi
culty might result either in the. loss of
his prisoner or in persona! injury to Him
self, the officer fired. The bail plowed its
way through the negro's side and very
near the heart. He was able, however, to
walk os far as the station house, where
his wounds received attention. They are
not believed to be dangerous.

court without the Intervention of n jury.
The defendant had borrowed from the
plaintiff the sum of *3.00(1, agreeing to re
pay it with interest, and 10 per cent, at

THE MORNING NEWS-: FRIDAY", JUNE 8, 1900.
THE MARIS WON FIRST RACE.
(Continued from Eighth Page.)
the breeze continued. Then it fell away,
rhut the Maris had a good start. Fully oft)
yards separated the two when they were
opposite Wilmington Island pier, the Dra
goon being cn the w’est and the Marris
on the east bank of the river. Reefs were
let out by both boats as the wind died
away, and not once during the rest of
the race were any taken, though down
in Warsaw sound the wind blew more
strongly than at the start. Danger of
squalls had jassed though, for the weath
er cleared not long after the start.
Drifted for an Hour.
For an hour the wind was distressingly
fiohl. and the boats drifted along. What
little wind there was. seemed to work to
the advantage of the Dragoon, and she
made up some of the distance between
her and the Maris, reducing it to perhaps
300 yards. The following craft soldiered,
listlessly along, all thb Dragoon’s sym
pathizers, knowing not that it would have
made no difference, save in the Maris’
favor, longing for a breeze.
Gradually the breeze came, rem lining
light, though steady, for an hour. It was
off Skidaway Island that it began to
make itself felt, coming from the south
east. The boats began to tack, the Maris
being the first to come about. It did not
take the experts long fo see that, in
tacking, the Maris “out-pointed” the Dra
goon. Indeed, before the race was over,
it was a generally accepted statement
that the Maris could outsail the Dragoon
with the wind from any quarter and of
and velocity.
The stock of the Dragoon went up once
during the race. That was during a couple
of miles sailing near and off Joe’s Cut.
where, the stakeboat was dropped by the
Tybee. The Savannah boat seemed to gain,
some advantage through ;*>sition or the
sweep of the tide, which is then coming
in, and the boats were within a short
distance of each other for awhile. The
Maris’ superiority soon asserted itself,
though, and off Cabbage Island she was
making her former lead goed.
Just there the river widens into Warsaw
sound, and tlie rising wind and the ocean
swell combined to make the water rough.
The attending boats could see the Maris
and the Dragoon ride the waves in splen
did style, especially the former, which had
on advantage in lightness. The wind, too,
was fresh enough to make the Savannah
yachtsmen watch for any indication of the
predicted shake the Dragoon was to give
the Maris when the weather was rough,
bui the gap showed, instead of evidence
of decreasing, a strong tendency to grow.
Around the First Stake boat.
Now a critical point in the race was ap
proaching. This was the rounding of the
first stakeboat. that which had been an
chored off Cabbage Island. As the Maris
had beaten the Dragoon on the run down,
the two boats having sailed close-hauled
or tacking all the way, it was hoped that,
oh the run back before the wind or with
it over the quarter, the Dragoon would
show the Maris points. First, though, it
was desired to catch the time as they
rounded the stakeboat. The statement
above shows the time when this and the
other boats were rounded, and it may be
seen that the Maris was four minutes in
the lead. The race was not’ half over, yet
she had nearly given the Dragoon her
time allowance.
One minute after the Maris rounded the
boat she had her balloon jib drawing
finely aiuF was racing for the Joe's Cut
boat. The Dragoon broke out her balloon
jib forty-five seconds after coming around
the boat, but she took in her main jib.
Just here the only criticism on the sailing
of the Dragoon was offered. Though
C;;pt. Barnard probably knew the toints
of his boat better than the crowd, it was
yet freely said that he should have flown
mainsail, main jib, balloon jib and spin
naker. for that is what the Maris soon
did, running clear before the wind witn
q perfect mountain of canvas spread.
Five and one-quarter minutes after th*
Maris, the Dragoon rounded the Joe's
Cut stakeboat, having lost one and one
quarter minutes on the run. Beating
back to the Cabbage Island stakeboat
again, she lost still more, rounding it
nine minutes after the Maris. Then the
sail homeward started, ond the Dragoon
wanted to try the example of the Maris.
Accordingly, she. too. broke out her bal
loon jib and her spinnaker, running free
under all her sails. She did better then,
for on the run home from the Cabbage
Island stakeboat. she lost but two minutes
and fifty-five seconds, whereas, on the
short stretch from stakeboat to stakeboat
before, she had lost one minute and fif
teen seconds.
Tii**' Mari** “Promenade.**
The return home was a “cinch” for the
Maris. It reminded one of the promenade
of the British to Pretoria. The Tybee sped
on in front of the returning fleet, and
the Maris looked a thing of beauty as she
pushed her way homeward. Not a rift in
the bellying sails, not a place where the
wind could beat its way through, could
be seen. Her tremendous sail area was
makirg itself felt, and the boat was tak
ing her course in a way that made
Charlestonians glow with pride. The Dra
goon, too, came on at a good pace, but
the Maris had the race, and no one
doubted it from the time the Joe’s Cut
boat was rounded. The only chance for
the Dragoon would have been for some
thing to carry away on the Maris, and
that seemed as unlikely as ;hat she should
sink in the sound.
The Tybee reached the prolongation of
the starling line, and the timers pre
pared to catch the Maris as she crossed,
a winner. It was to an accompaniment of
cheers and blasts from the w histles of the
steam craft that had kept the pace up
the river that she passed over, and then
she dropped her sails, was again taken
care of by the Winona, and all hands
waited the coming of the Dragoon, which
was off Wilmington pier as the Maris
crossed the line. The Dragoon was com
ing at a spanking rate, too, and soon she
was over the line.
Then the procession to the Yacht Club
started, where most of the boats 'and- and
their passengers. Some of the spectators
took the water route back to the city, but
the majority came back by the cars. A
special service was put on, and the crowd
was handled very satisfactorily and ex
peditiously.
The second race will be sailed to-day.
Savannahians seem to have lost hope, and
it is pretty generally conceded that this
will be (he last day. It is feared that
there will be no third day. The agree
ment wos for the leest two In thro", but
a third may not be necessary. If the
weather is clear, there may be quite as
large a crowd, to witness to-day's race,
even though there seems but small chance
for the Dragoon. .

Warner’s Safe Cure Cos.,
Gentlemen: I will be glad to bear testimony
to the value of Warner’s Safe Cure for dropsy.
I want those afflicted as I have been to take
this life giver and get well as I did.
I suffered agony for three years and my life
was despaired of, when one day my doctor
said: “I guess I will give you Warner’s.”
Thank God for such a remedy. It brought me
health and new life. I have used it pretty
regularly for a year, but I am well to-day, and
had it not been for Warner’s Safe Cure I
would have been in my grave. Respectfully,

COMPLETED HIS ROUNDS.
Col. Nlercer** Talk to the Colored
School Children.
President George A. Mercer, of the
Board of Education, completed his round
of the schools for the present school year
yesterday. Col. Mercer makes it a point
to visit every school and every class in
every school at least once during the
school year. He completed his tour at the
East Broad street colored school yester
day.
These visits of Col. Mercer are always a
source of pleasure to both teachers and
pupils, and he is always warmly received.
It is his rule to make a short address at
each school visited .and this was not omit
ted yesterday. Col. Mercer gave the chil
dren a plain, practical talk upon their du
ties to themselves to take every advantage
of the opportunities offered, and to make
the best uses of them in order that they
might become good citizens. The hope
of the negro race, he told them, lay in
honest, practical effort and in making
good use of the opportunities of the ad
vantages offered them. If they will make
themselves useful and will show' their abil
ity to do something they will not be con
sidered undesirable members of society,
and their efforts will meet with recogni
tion.
There Is no bar against the negroes ac
complishing something for himself. Col.
Mercer told them. As an evidence of w*hat
can be done he told of a Chinaman who
came here a few' years ago. poor and
without friends, but who managed to se
cure a piec*e of ground on the outskirts
of the city and set to work raising vege
tables. By hard, intelligent, work he made
a decided success and was the only truck
grower who was able to supply the mar
ket with lettuce last winter. He is now
improving his ground by putting in sev
eral thousand feet of drainage pipe.
If a Chinaman, without friends among
either white or colored, can make a suo
cess in a business of this kind. Col. Mer
cer said, why cannot any worthy colored
man accomplish as much with equal ap
plication. If he be the right sort of man
he would be certain to have a number of
friends among both w’hite and colored to
give him a helping hand where the China
man had none. He also cautioned the
children against policy lotteries and crap
playing and other weaknesses of the race.
Principal Ross followed Col. Mercer
with a short lalk, in which he endorsed
the remarks of the president and instruct
ed the children to go home and tell their
parents what the president of the board
had said, particularly with regard to buy
ing policy tickets.
WAS A GLITTERING SUCCESS.
Com fortalile Addition Made to Police
Benevolent Association’* Fund.
The picnic of the Police Benevolent As
sociation at Tybee on yesterday, was
among the successes of the year. The offi
cers and men of the force were gathered
on the island in large numbers, and the
friends of the association had contrib
uted their presence end their half-dollars
to make the occasion successful and finan
cially profitable.
There was dancing on the. broad pavil
ions of Hotel Tybee during all of the day
and until midnight last night, when the
last train left the Island for the city. Two
bands furnished the music for the occa
sion, and when anyone wanted to dance
there was no reason why he or she should
not gratify his or her desire. Other
amusements were furnished by the com
mittee that had charge of the pleasure
and entertainment of the guests.
A large percentage of those who attend
ed the picnic returned to the city only
on the last train from the island, and
their departure was attended with sin
cere regret that the day had been fully
spent. A comfortable addition was made
to the treasury of the Police Benevolent
Association, for whose benefit the picnic
was given. The tickets had been general
ly purchased, and many of those who had
tickets, found themselves unable to at
tend the picnic.
