BRUNSWICK loses
FAITHFUL FRIEND.
Colonel l. W. Avery Accidentally
Killed at KirkwOOd Yes
terday.
FATAL FALL FROM HIS PORCH.
he Was One of the Early Editors of the At
lanta COnstiOutiOn-A Champion
of This City.

Atlanta, Sept. S.-Colonel Isaac w.
Avery, at one time editor of the At
lanta Constitution and foreign COM
missioner to Mexico and the South
American republics for the Atlanta ex-
position of 1895, fell from the porch of
his residence in Kirkwood, a suburb
of this city, and died shortly after
from his injuries.
Colonel Avery was one of the best
known Georgians Of his day. He was
a dashing cavalry colonel in the Con-
federaUe army and commanded a bril-
gade the last year of the war.
He was editor of the Atlanta Con-
stitution for several years, and started
Henry W. Grady in his career on that
prper. He wrote history of Georgis
really of Joseph f. Brown-and was
a prolific contributor to periodicals
and newspapers. -
His last work was originating the
movement for direct trade between the
Southern states and European ports,
which has since grown to considerable
proportions.
In the death of Colonel Avery the
city of Brunswick loses particular
friend. He was always champion of
the superior advantages of this port
and continually urged the Importance
of direct trade between Brunswick
and Europe.
The last work of his life was the
compilation of statistics of the increase
in the shipping business of Southern
ports, extracts from which THE TIMES
published on Tuesday. Many Bruns-
wickians will be panied this morning
to learn that be is no more.

TWO DEVILS.

Flaming Flame vas devil red
This Is what the old Mortimer said
A demon subtle and swift and sly.
Who lived upon wood that was old and dry
The Northmen fell on their knees for fear
Lest Flaming Flame should come too near.
For his bite was deadly and sharp, they said.
And his tongue was cruel and long and red.
Flaming Flame
Was the DEVILS name.
This Is what the old Mortimer said.
Riminy Rimc was q devil white.
Who drove his horses at dead OF night
And combed their Names with the wild winds
tost,
As be called thoir namos-Hail, Snow and
Frost.
And the Mortimer fell on their knees to cry
As Riminy Rhine went driving by.
They shivered and shook with an awful dread
For he split great rocks at glance, they said
Riminy Rhine
Was feared In his time.
This is what the old Mortimer said.
Flaming Flame was a devil red.
Who ate dry wood, so the Mortimer said.
Riminy Rhine was q devil white,
Who split up rocks In the dead OF night.
But little Goo Goo. I'm his cradle warm,
Loves Flaming Flame and fears no harm, e.
While Riminy Rhine at the window. too.
Draws beautiful scenes for little Goo Goo.
Flaming Flame
Was n DEVILS name.
Riminy Rhine
Was feared ia his time.
But who cares n flg what tho Mortimer say,
For little Goo Goo knows better than they.

knowledge of the negro character, as it
emerged from serfdom. After the war
Gen. Howard was the head of the Freed
mems Bureau, and went to Richmond,
accompanied by a United States Senator,
who was also interested in the great
work the bureau had been designed to
prepare.

oh, yes they replied, Gen.
Howard? We all knows bout him.
He's our Moses. He's takin' care of Us. ,
"The other tables were occupied by
unimportant young officers, who, not
knowing Gen. Howard, or not standing in
awe of his strong religious views, began
to curse the walters violently, and
abused them for not waiting on them
more promptly.
"The outcome of it all was that the
unimportant young officers were waited
upon, and got their dinners at once.
Gen. Howard did not fare we'll at all,
AID after waiting a full hour left the
dining-room as hungry as when he
entered it.
