he curls up when I ask him that uttes

some further instances of the prowess
and mischievous deviltry of the simian.

A MARIETTA GIRL.

Nearly every magazine or publica-
ton OF any note has among its star
Writers some ambitious young woman,
giving up her youth, energy and tai
sents to make her reputation in the lit
erary world
Among the eoterie of brilliant writer's
associated with the Harper Bros. is Miss
Alma kolheim who, although identified
regularly with the well known publica-
ton, Literature, writes also for the va
rious magazines and weeklies owned
by the Harpers.
She has travelled extensively abroad
and is highly educated and accom-
plished, devoting great deal of time
to such studies as will advance her in
her literary career, already so well be-
gun.
Her grandfather, but recently dead
wasa distinguished student occupying
the seat of astronomy in the University
of Jena, and she inherits great deal of
the brunette beauty of her aunt, the
beautiful Rebecca Grady, of Philadel-
phia, whom Sir Walter Scott made the
heroine of 'Ivanhoe.'
Her mother is southern woman
and she herself was born in Mississippi
and is typical southern woman.
Miss kohlheim has resided in New
York for some time, but her success is
of great interest to Atlantians, since
she has admiring friends here, while
her young brother is associated with
the firm of Sanders, Swami 4 Co. At
lanta Constitution.
The Constitution might have added
that Miss Kohlheim is Marietta girl
and that her mother, Mrs. M. F. Kohl
sheim is resident of this place. The
gifted young writer has many friends
here who are glad of her success.

THE DIFFERENCE.

In Albany, ia, one DAY last week
an old negro. man died. The mer-
chants closed their stores, and long
procession of white citizens followed
the hearse to the cemetery, and with
reverence placed his body to rest be-
meath the sod, bestrewing his grave
with flowers, all indicating feeling of
respect and sorrow.
A few weeks previous, in Newman,
Ga, another procession of some 1900
white citizens followed another negro
man to the place where he was put to
death his body was chained to pine
tree, and in place Of flowers, faggots
were piled around his body, kerosene
and fire we're applied and he was burn
ed to death, and in place of sorrow,
there was indignation and gladness.
What was the cause OF this difference
in the respect paid to the memory of
the former, and The fury and vengeance
heaped upon the latter? They were
both negroes and lived in the south
and in Georgia towns. II the southern
people are barbarous and bent on
wreaking vengeance on negroes, why
was it the savage instinct would give
vent in one instance, and to a tender,
gentle influence in the otker?
The difference is this: The first was
n negro who was Industrious, respect
full, sober, polite and law-abiding, kept
in his place, was honest, and believed
the southern people were his friends,
and received their friendship and con-
fidence in return. Every southern
home was safe in his presence, and he
proved his good citizenship, and when
he died he received as much respect as
il he had been distinguished white cit
izen.
But how different the life. of the ne
gro who was the victim of vengeance
of the aroused citizens of New
nan. He had been hired by a worthy
white farmer, given good wages, treat
ed kindly and trusted, and instead of
proving the protector and friend of the
family, he noiselessly slipped into the
house OF his white benefactor at
night, plunged an axe into the skull
of the husband and father as he was
seated at the supper table with his
wife and children; and then the negro
fiend grabs the infant child from it's
mothers breast, filings it across the
house as if he would brain it, andsthen
and there assaults the wife in the very
blood of her dead husband. His hell
ish purpose accomplished, he fees to
the woods like wild beast, to be hunt
ed down and put to death as a mad
dog, that the world might be rid of his
british existence. As he sowed, he
reaped.
The difference was in character The
one was upright and polite; the other
was criminal in acts and propensities.
Y The negroes q Georgia who live as
did the Albany negro will never be
lynched but they will have the help
and friendship of the white people, and
when they die they will be spoken of
in terms of kindness. But if they be-
come ontlaws, incendiaries, thieves,
murderers and rapists, making them
selves terror and despoiler of south
ern homes, their fate will be one that
will speedily end their diabolical ex-
istence.
