send it on to Cherokee 10 him. In
the meantime he went to Cherokee
to meet his bride to be.
The date of the wedding arrived,
but the license did not. He wired
the clerk of the probate court at

had been forwarded all o. X. He
then went to the pOstotfice at Chero-

was none given him. The girl was in
a rage at him. and threatened to
desert him at once. He begged her
to wait another day. She did, and
still another but the necessary paper
did not arrive.
They could have got one there at

alleged negligence, and said that if
the one from Winfield did not ar

Physical Decline of the Negro

Abundant statistics have been col locted in recent years to demonstrate that the negro race in the south has entered upon conditions of physical de- cline that presage it's gradual decima- tor, and possibly that it may finally follcw the vanishing trail Of the h. dian.
 Before their emancipation the negro race in the south was the best kept body O. la5orers ii the world. Their physical value gave reason for prompt attention always to their physical con ditions. They were well housed. sani- tated, fed and worked consistently. and when i'll they were quickly given the best medical attention. Il was to the interest Of the owner that the slave should be in the best physical status every possible moment
 Since emancipation the negro has been thrown entirely upon his own re sources and devices. Tn the main he has had poor shelter, no regard for sanitation. ill clothing. haphazard feeding and but scant medical direction and treatment. He has become the victim Of many vice5 and habits that are wasting to the physical powers and at last finds that he is the easy prey of diseases tp which until freedom he was a stranger.
 Tuberculosis has become a veritable ,urse to the race. Before the negro be- came Q freedman cases of consumption among the slaves were so rare that a negro was popularly supposed to be immune frcm the scourge. But within forty years. under free and independ- ent living. the fatal diseaze has made them it's easy mark and today more negroes in the south are dying from tuberculosis than from any other one disease.
 It was the same way as to yellow fever. Ante-bcllum medical authori- ties claimed in written works that a case of yellow fever among American negroes vas an unknown thing. Now. whenever there is an epidemic of that yellow sccurge in the couth. the ne groCs are among tho fVst to have it, and it does muet havoc among them. And tho same is true of many other physical discasos-ucErco have them now as they never had them during slavery.
 Mental diseases also are doing deadly wcrk amc@G them. Here in Georgia the negro population has doubled in fol ty years and the number O: tnsa ne negroes increased twenty fold. For generations prior to 1SG0 crazy negro in Georgia was a phenomenon.
 Plainly there is problem here f~-' uegrC rCformers and pEilanthropists more important even than higher edu- cation in the classics and the rights of the negro in the rational arena.-At- lGntc Constitution

LICENSING OF AUTOMOBILES.

The movement that is now on foot t0 license autuIuobilsts in New York may be open to criticism in some respects, but. on the whole, it is well conceived. Even the automchilsts themselves of fer no opposition to licensing. provided it is not to be employed to their injury There is no objection on their part to the appointment of a committee Of three persons or as many as may be thought necessary to pass upon the competency of operators, and they are perfectly willing to pay a reasonable fee for such an examination. To many however. a license fee of $1O for pleas ure vehicles, that stipulated in the pro- posed ordinance TOW before the board of aldermen. seems excessive. and there is likely to be some amendment of th" measure as regards this requirement before 1t is dlaI,y adopted.

It was reported some time ago that Admiral Cervera, who commanded the Spanish fleet at Santiago, was dead, and again that he was still living in eX- treme poverty and utterly neglected by his countrymen. The Spanish consul general at Norfolk. Va, who has re- gently made a visit to Spain. now comes forward with a statement that Cervera is living at Cadiz and that he found him there in the best of health and "in comfortable circumstances"
 It would seem. also, according to the report of the consul. that the stories of the admirals neglect by the Spanish government have been very much ex- asgerated. He is drawing from it @ larger salary than he had before al- though virtually on the retired list, and in addition is president of a Mediter- ranean steamship company
