But the Old Man Did Not Mean to
Let Her Run to Bankruptcy.
The train was about ten miles west
of Ypsilanti when an oldish man came
into the car with bill in his hand and
called out:
kin any purson here change $40
bill fur me?'
Everybody was willing to try, and he
finally got to fives. Then he wanted
one of them broken. and he finally
found a passenger who could give him
five ones.
III take EN-" replied the man,
"but then I shall want somebody to
bust dollar fur me-"
will two halves do?'- asked a
woman as she investigated her purse
Yes, if ] can't git four quarters he
replied. I'm sorry to make all this
trouble, but you see how it is. The old
woman has sorter decided to stop off
at Ypsilant and visit her sister fur
three or four days while I go to De-
troit and back. Her sister mayn't be
home, and she'll naturally feel a little
queer without any money. I thought
I'd give her a quarter, but if I can't
get it, why I'll let her take fifty cents,
though know I'll never see any of it
back. She'll go down town and run
through a dollar in less'n two hours,
and have to keep curb on her"
He finally got a quarter, and the old
woman had it tied uD in the corner Of
her handkerchief as she got off at

The production of the plays "Sap-

How the Project 0riginated-Generosity of the South to the Northwest in Its Need What the Colonists
 Are Doing.
IcopYRIaHr. 1896

Within a few miles of the scene of the capture of Jefferson Davis at the close of the civil war may now be seen one of the most remarkable colonies ever or ganized in this country. Agaln. the union soldiers are marching through Georgia" but this time they come with peaceful intentions. armed only with the hoe and spade, and they have come to stay. Already 5000 wearers of the blue are on the ground; and by January l, 1897, fully 10000 of them will be Iiv- ing within radius of ten miles from the town of Fitzgerald. With the civilians who have determined to take part in the venture, and the families of the colo nists, it is estimated that the settlement will number 50.00o souls when New Year is next celebrated there
 1t is an interesting story-the way this project originated. All will remem- Der the cry of destitution which came from Nebraska and the adjoining region during the winter of 1S94-o5, in eonse- quence of the failure of the crops from droughts during the proceeding season. At that time the cornbins of the south ern planters were abundantly filled; and it occurred to Mir Richard Ed monds, editor of the Manufacturers Record, of Baltimore, that the south might we'll show it's sympathy for the northwest by sending a train load of provisions and clothing to relieve the suffering. He communicated with ex- Gov. Northen, of Georgia, who took charge of the matter, and as a result 27 cars loaded with southern products rolled out of Atlanta one afternoon in the latter part of January. bound for the afflicted district. The governor soon began receiving letters of gratitude from those who had been relieved. Among these there were some from old soldiers who had taken up farms in the west, expressing a wish to come south and make homes there. Gov Northen answered that they would receive a hearty welcome, and that he would aid them in every way possible. This started the idea.
 P. H. Fitzgerald, of Indianapolis, Ind, T. C. Welch, of McPherson, Kan, Peter Dinger, of Gilman, H., II. c. Miller, of Stanton, Neb., and J. M Deniston, of Lapaz, Ind, were delegated by grand

army posts in their respective states to visit Georgia and investigate. These gentlemen made such favorable re port that q corporation was organized under the title of the Soldier Colony company, to buy land and make the necessary arrangements. The plan de- cided on was that of the stock company, each colonist paying ten dollars per share. In return he was to be allowed five acres of farming land for each share, or a lot in the colony town. So eager was the desire to become mem bers that $50,000 worth of the stock had been paid for three months before the first settler reached Georgia.
 In August last the movement of the veterans to the south land began. As nearly all the western and northwest ern states are represented, a dozen or more families started about the same time from their old homes to the new The big farm wagons covered over with temporary roofs of canvas, in the prairie schooner" style, formed q slow. but comfortable means of travel. As the colony land was not open for set clement until last September, the im- migrants were obliged to wait in the vicinity; and for a month before the opening, over 300 families were en- camped about Abbeville and Triton, the nearest villages.
 Since the days of the last corn har- vest, Fitzgerald has been the Mecca of hundreds of families. By twos, by threes, and by dozens have the white topped wagons appeared, slowly roll ing along the single highway which leads to this place. There is but one railroad in the vicinity, and its near est station is six miles distant; yet for two months several extra freight trains have been run, loaded with the house. hold effects of the settlers.
 These people have come from as far as the northern boundary of North Da- kota. In fact, they represent all parts of the great northwest-and all ordi- nary vacations, for mechanics, profes- fessional men, merchants and real es- tate dealers, have taken shares as well as the farmers. The colony does not lack men.
 The old soldiers did not come to Fitz- gerald for it's historic associations. The principal attractions were the cheapness of the land, the agreeable climate and the fertility of the soil. This is in what is termed the wire-grass region of Geor- gia, but the title is deceptive. An in dustrious farmer with a long-eared Georgia mule can make barren-looking, sandy soil yield enough from a few acres to furnish food for himself, his wife and a dozen children. It is near the orchard and vineyard country, and
