ceesful termination, his great brain
and mind had conceived and estab-
Eehed some enterprises the magnitude
of which placed him in the front
ranks of New York s famous operators
One OF these enterprises particularly
was the consolidation of the entire
series of wharfs and warehouses on
the Brooklyn water front and their
operation by the corporation organ
lied by Mr.. McIntire as the Brooklyn
Wharf and Warehouse Company. In
this transaction check for the
largest amount that was ever given
i'm New York was passed, namely, for
sI2.27s,7 $50, and probably the
biggest single check that ever passed
over the counter of an American bank.
1t was after such conquests as these IN

came for come rest and recreation into
Eastern North Carolina. The result
haa been Of untold benefit to this sec

AS q result of his coming to the

stock farm, one of the grandest farms
in the Southland, comprising 5000
acres, has been established; besides
enc or more extensive lumber mills,
a line of steamboats, on New river, and
other lesser enterprises. He has also
secured control of the Electric Street
Railway in Wilmington.
All these are owned almost entirely
by Mr.. Mcintyre, and are operated by

from his pedigree following:
His sire was Jay Bird, 5, 900 A. I. r.;
he was by George Wilkes, SIG A. I. H.,
out of Lady Frank In the Great Brood
Mare List. Jay Bird is reported in
the Select List of 1895 as having three
descendants in the 2:15 list, namely,
Early Bird, with Il record of 2:10;
Larabie, with 3-year-old record OF
2:12s., and Birdie Clay, with record
Of 2:14h. Southland is thus half
brother to Larabie and the other two
on the list.
Southland's first dam was Ktslladee
by Young Jim, 3, 900; he by George
Wilkes, $40, out of the great brood
mare, the Lear mare. Young Jim also

The entertainment given Monday
evening at the court house in this
city was great success, both arts,
tically and financially and netted
quite a handsome sum to the new
Marietta Baptist Church, for which
the entertainment was gotten up.
Much of the credit of the affair is
due Miss Annie Seals, who arrang
ed the musical part of the program.
The program was opened with an
overture by Manning's Orchestra,
which was we'll rendered, after
which the quartette, "Moenlight on
the Lake." White, was rendered by
Miss Seals, Miss York, Mr.. Cole
and Mr.. Anderson. This was greet
ed with long and continued applause,
the participants graciously respond
ed to an encore. Miss Seals then
sang a solo, because l love you,
Dear" by Hawley, that was given
with all the beautiful feeling and
artistic effect that characterizes
everything that the talented little
lady does. Miss Seals has beauti-
tul soprano voice OF the purest
quality. and her intonation is per-
feet. Following this was debate,

was participated in by Prof. SAM

and later in the evening by Mr..

deal of amusement and interest.
The tenor solo of MIR. Cole, Don't

dered, and showed Mr., Cole possess
ed of tenor thai is pure and reso>

ment. The piano solo of Miss Dy-

lady possesses ability of no NEAL or

of much talent. One of the most
enjoyable events OF the program
was the playing of Prof. +. l..

received with enthusiasm and were
compelled tie respond to encore after
encore. Following came the sweet
old song, "The old oaken bucket"
which was beautifully rendered by
Messrs. Cole, York, Anderson and

participants high order of talent.

The "Staccato Polka" and this diG-
cult composition which requires the

given by Miss Seals in manner
that was perfect, and she responded

A PATRIOTIC ENTERPRISE.

Nearly 5000 confederate soldiers
repose at the base of Kennesaw
mountain in the little cemetery at
Marietta, Ga.
Unhappily, however, no head.
stones have been placed over these
fallen heroes and for nearly thirty
years the destructive agencies Of
time have been at work brushing
away the mounds only to cover them
again with weeds and briers.
Just across the way in beautiful
stretch of woods which the govern
ment has set apart as a national
cemetery lie the soldier boys in blue
who fought against this little band
of confederates. Eaca grave is
marked by marble headstone Civ
ing the name of the buried soldier,
the state from which he came and
the regiment in which he served.
Over the hills is thrown a carpet of
luxuriant grass and this carpet is
swept as carefully as if it covered
the floor of mansion. Magnificent
trees extend their branches over
the silent area and softly murmur
as the breezes sport among them.
Every one who visits the cemetery
is glad to behold this grateful re-
cognition Of the dead-even the con-
federate soldier is glad to see that
his foe is honored and no feeling Of
envy rises within his bosom.
Nevertheless the contrast is pain-
full and the boys in gray who sleep
in the same earth and under the
shadow Of the same blue mountain
should be cared for as tenderly as
those who repose in the silent ranks
of the national cemetery.
A movement has been started in
Marietta which has for its object
the erection of headstone over the
grave of each confederate soldier
aud also, if possible, the creation of
a fund to place the confederate GEM
etery in repair tor the approaching
exercises of Memorial Day.
This movement will provoke
cordial response from every ore
who appreciates the heroism of the
confederate soldier.
Next Saturday the people Of Ma
rietta intend to celebrate the com
pletion Of new system of water
works, and magnificent Georgia
barbecue has been agreed upon as
the chief feature OF this celebration.
The barbecue will be held at the
plant Of the Marietta Paper Manu-
featuring Company.
Every one who attends this bar
becue ard participates in the cele-
bration will be asked to contribute
something toward the erection of
headstones for the soldiers in the
confederate cemetery.
The Constitution heartily COM
mends this generous enterprise, and
doubtless liberal sum Of money
will be subscribed for the purpose
of doing honor to these soldier boys
in gray and of removing the stigma
of neglect which has lowered over
their graves so long.-Atlanta Com
stitution.
The barbecue has been postponed
to Monday, April 9th, Memorial
day.
