I America Since the dividend assign
able TO the shareholders is restricted,
the directors spend their surplus In
securing not only efficiency and Sc
curity but even elegance. The say
ing. current among Europeans in Bra
I'll. is that the only thing that re-
mains to be done upon the Sac Paulo
and Santos line is TO gid the tops
of the telegraph poles.
Brazi's Most Progressive City.
The train. speeding along the per-
fectiy smooth roadbed which this gilt
edged railroad boasts, brought us
after fifty miles 10 the city OF Sac
Paulo. the briskest and most progress
sive place In all Brazil though with
less than half the population of Rio
de Janeiro. 1t is one OF the oldest
towns in the country. founded in 1853
by "A Jesuit missionary. The early
settlers, many of whom intermar-
ried with the native Indians. became
the parents of a singularly bold and
energetic race, who, in their search
for gold and silver. explored the land
and raided the Indians and whites
too II there were any. all the way
down from here TO the Uruguay and
Parana rivers.
The free spirit of these "Paulistas"
has passed to their descendants Liv-
ing in healthy uplands, they have
shown more industrial and political
activity than the people OF any other
State in the federation. Since 1875
the planting OF enormous tracts of
land with coffee has rapidly raised
the wealth OF the region. and this city,
being its heart and center. has risen
in sixty years from a small country
town to he q place OF four hundred
thousand Inhabitants.
( It stands upon several hills, from
the highest of which there are charm
ing views to the picturesque ranges to
the north and along the valley Of its
river the Tiete. The city has grown
so fast as to show few traces OF Its
antiquity, except In the center. where
the narrow and crooked streets Of
the business quarter have n pic
turesque variety rarely found in the
rectangular towns of the New World
The alert faces and the air OF stir and
movement, as well as handsome pub
/ lie buildings rising on all hands, give
the impression of energy and prog
ress.
Many immigrants from italy have
in the last decade entered the State
and the city. and now by their labor
contribute largely to the prosperity Of
both. Negroes are comparatively
few: II is these Italians that do the
most and the best Of the work. The
larger business, both commercial and
industrial, for there are now good
many factories, Is chiefly in the
hands OF foreigners, Italians Ger
mans and English. with few French
state of things which acceleratss
material progress. The State Is not
only the most prosperous, but politi-
cally the most influential. in the re-
public. One way or another, what
with Paulistas and foreigners, city and

The Macon Telegraph OF yesterday

Unanimous in declaring that they
had Just closed the most successful
encampment they have ever had, the
three local Second Georgia regiment
companies OF the regiment returned
to their homes over the same routes
they took to reach st. Simon's.
During the ten days over 500 mem

little there was, was thorough and
greatly benefited the military train
