AN UNUSUAL CHANCE FOR MAKING
MONEY.

That block of eight lots, each 80 by 10S,
bounded by Bolton, Habersham, Price
streets and a lane, will be sold at auc-
ton at the Court House, TUESDAY,
May I.
1t is so unusual that just such a sale
as this takes place, that I want, in every
way possible to cali attention to it.
ANOTHER SPECULATIVE PIECE
Is that batch of lots at Thunderbolt near
the Yacht Club grounds, sixteen fine lots,
which must be sold to close the estate.
These lots are in the midst of good i'm
provements, and an excellent neighbour
hood, very near to the trolley line.
THOSE THREE LOTS
In Collinsville, on the southwest corner
Of OFT and Duffy, are the best unimproved
lots in that section. Two of the finest
houses occupy two of the other corners.
Look at them before day of sale. Trolley
cars go quite near them.
THE HENRY STREET LOT,
Near Barnard on a paved street, is one
of the few vacant lots to be had. I am in
structed to sell as the owner needs the
money more than the lot.

WOMEN IN GERMANY.
They Have Many Opportunities of Ad-


vancement In tho Professions,
The regulations of the German gov
eminent Us TO woman's place in the
learned professions are exceedingly
liberal. For some time past they have
not been technically barred from the
right OF being doctors, dentists, etc.
but the chances OF training we're 50
limited that only very few women
-ou!d avail themselves Of the privi-
ieges thus afforded The establish
ment of "gyIanasia" for girls in many
CT the larger German cities, notably
Berlin, Leipsic, Hanover, konigsbers,
Stuttgart and others has given to
girls the preparation which they re-
quired in order to enter upon the uni
verslty training which is needed tc
qualify for any learned profession.
The universities admit women if not
as full students, at least to the lee
lures. The position Of dentist requires
two years university training only, as
against FIVE years for medicine, which
easily explains the preponderance OF
fully qualified dentists over doctors.
In the whole of Germany there are. it
is said, only nine female doctors, six
OF whom practice in Berlin, one II.

PRICE ON HER HEAD.
SOCIETY CFFERS $1,000 FOR
MISS JEWETTS SCALP.
A Sequel of the Recent R!ots - The
Woman who Denounced the Killing
of Charles and Others by Mob of
L. yless Whites. q

There is much excitement in two
try over u sequel OF the recent bloody
scenes in the city Of New Orleans, La,
and as a result the states OF Louisiana
and Massachusetts are, so to speak,
scowling at each other with unmistak-
able viciousness. The Green Turtle
club, semi-political organization OF
New Orleans, has threatened the life
and set the price of 1000 on the head
of Miss Lillian Clyton Jewett OF Bos-
ton, who headed q mass meeting OF
Boston negroes a few nights ago and
declared war on southern whites. A
Boston dispatch says Miss Jewett has
secured 10000 negro crusaders willing
to march to New Orleans and that
$4,000 was raised to equip them and to
send an advance agent.
Miss Jewett is president of the Anti
Lynching league OF Boston and the
recent killing Of Charles and other ne
groes without trial by lawless whites
excited the woman and her followers
greatly. At the meeting in Boston
Miss Jewett made a fiery speech, In
which she denounced the whites OF
New Orleans in unmeasured terms and
declared tnat she would head cru
sade against them Excitement ran
nigh, and one Of the speakers, the Rev.
B. W. Farris, exclaimed: If Robert
Charles could hold 1000 people at bay.
what could 10,UvJ negroes do?'
One speaker recognized man in
the audience who, he declared, was a
former slave holder in New Orleans.
This started panic during which all
of the whites and half of the negroes
left the church, but the negroes re-
turned when quiet had been restored.
When the news of this meeting
reached New Orleans the Green Turtle
club, which is representative south
ern club of over 100 members, was
stirred to great anger. In few days
she received a letter postmarked New
Orleans. 1t read:
I'VE would give $1,000 reward for
your scalp in preference to any negro
In your congregation. You may be
white in the eyes of Boston people, but
in our eyes you are blacker than Rob-
ert Charles. We therefore invite you
to come down. Our members are anX-
iousiy awaiting your arrival to get the
prize that is offered for your head"
This was signed Members Green
Turtle club, No. 1912 Annette street,
New Orleans. La The whole thing
started in the southern city as joke,
but the Boston people took the matter
seriously and now the Green Turtle
members are in earnest and say they
propose to stand back of their words.
The letter to Miss Jewett further says:
',seing that you threaten to conc
to New Orleans with a mob OF 10000
persons, we invite you to come as the
blacks Joan of Arc, and we assure you
that your band of crusaders would get
killed in less time than it took Charles
to kill the police officers" That this
is seriously meant is shown by the
fact that these words were duly en-
tered on the clubs minutes.
