In the lower section of the cit,

gauut, white-haired negro, who hob
hled along in his tasters, paying n,

brave enough to stop him in his pur'

more of his life. lie was stingy,
and knew it Such thing as part
ing with penny of his hoard was
not known, Some time ago a color
ed acquaintance was bold enough to
stop the old man on the street and
mildly suggest how much good he
could do to his race by subscribing
as small sum OF money to an insti-
tuition Infected to benefit INDECENT
colored people. After looking at
his interrogation a moment in a man
ner that left no doubt of his inten~
ton the old man said : "See here.
You came into the country from the
South some forty five years ago.
| remember it. You started out to
to help build colleges and schools
and all that sort of thing. | started
out to make money aud save it. We
are both the same in ono thing
you succeeded in your object and |
succeeded in mine. There 10 this
difference now. You want me, but
| don't want you. | WON'T give you
a cent" Then turning on his rheu-
matte heel the old man ambed off.
Unlike a majority of his class,
cold Josh" did net hide bis coveted
wealth in the ground, nor did he
find delight in the dead hours OF
the night in counting over his dol>
lars. His mind was of a practical
turn and his absorbing passion was
to become possessed Of broad acres
and substantial piles of brick and
mortar that would bring in revenue.
When he made any allusion to things
mundane be was in the habit of
speaking of this world as "vale of
tears" and bis store in the "vale"
consisted OF thirty seven houses in
different sections of the city, nine
in Camden, several properties in
Frankfort and Chester, two farms in
New Jersey and other realty, that
the most inquisitive of his nearest
neig could never locate. Now
that he has passed away, and bis
mortal remains will be buried in the
elk foot hole in Olive Cemetery on
Friday, all bis broad acres and val
liable houses will go to bis brothers,
who reside 10 this city.

Col. Seals Concert and Lecture

The concert in behalf of the Hill Monu-
mental fund, at DeGive's Opera House, At
lanta, was largely attended by the elite Of
the city.
The musical part of the programme under
the dictatorship of Prof. Schultze was ad-
mirably rendered. Mrs. Schultze, Miss
Cucker and Rev. Keff Smith, are deserving
of special mention. The lecture of Col.
Seals was the feature of the entertainment
1t was medley of things, grave, and gay,
lively and severe. His witticisms were
fresh and sparkling, while the pathetic por'
tions are rarely equalled by the most IA
nous lecturers. Mrs. Bryan was most fe
licitous at the unwilling of the statue o.
Senator Hill. Her poem was well deliver
ed and to our uncritical eyes, she looked
the queen of tragedy.
