MupIi is beinp’ writt«*n ami said and
seen of tlu* Cotton Stairs’ exposition
now in progress in Atlanta.(ia. liavii;;,
read and heard intieh of thispreat ex
position, a few days ago, while in AI-
lanta, I went out to the grounds. I wan
surprised myself when I saw the out
lay and the immensity of the show.
Everything was finished, everything
was ready for the multitude, ami tin*
multitude was there. The grounds am*
iMMiutiful, the buildings magnified)I,
the exhibits complete.
I felt proud of the south, proud of the
plucky little city of Atlanta, promt
that I Wasn (Icorgian, when I witnessed
this displaty of their pluck and vim aiml
generosity aind enterprise. .No city in
the history of the world ever gave such
an exhibition with such large outlay.
I doubt if another in the world except
Atlanta could have done it. Atlanta,
could only do it with the united elTorts
of all her people. Ami say uhait you
will of Atlantal, her strength is in her
unity. Her push and vim we commend
and admire, but her unity charms us.
All roanls lead to Atlantal now,and all
roads leading to Atlanta are bringing
the thousands to see the great show;
and Atlanta is taking care of t he crowds
well.
I took no stock in t he cry of extort ion
on the public by the city. Hotels on
the European) plan, lirst-chi: s boarding
houses, furnished rooms, elegant res
taurants, 1 dare saiy thait no city in
America will equal in price, the accom
modations Atlanta gives to her visitors
for cheapness and comfort.
If a fool wants to cut a swell he’ll pa\y
lor his swell. If ai sensible main want.!
comfortable quarters and square meals
he can get them from one dollar u;> to
three on the American plan. This I
know to be t rue.
Sitting on the trains occasionally 1
hear some folks vaporizing on t ;e ex
tortions and outrages perpetrated by
the hotels and boarding houses. Wh. i
they say sounds like a lie, am! while
they’re telling it they look like liana.
The rates of all the leading hotels un
published daily in the Atlanta papers.
The committee of “public comfort"
guards well the interest of the vis.tors,
but there’s no protection for the fools.
Nature itself has no provisions where
by she suspends her laws to protect the
fools.
The fare to-the grounds from the cit -.
is only live cents by some of the rouw---
and ten cents by others. The admis
sion through the gates is 50 cents. And
if a man cannot get a hundred times tin
worth of his money after he enters the
gate he’s got no place to store away tl.i
sights ami scenes.
Many states have splendid buildb
and magnificent exhibits. The An
building has many charming features.
The Machinery hall, the Electric build
ing, the railroad exhibits, the exitiI t
of woods and minerals and fishes, t ,r.
will engage a man a month. Midva
Plaisanec will furnish diversity foreh 1
dren and baldheaded men and idiot,
and will give entertainment in some c f
its features to the grave and w ise ami
dignified.
The crowds, themselves, are interest
ing; really, there’s nothing more intei
esting to me than crowds of people.
They’re here from every nation and
city and hamlet. The old country
brother, with his wife and children,
taking in the sights—he doesn’t know
much about what anything is, but just
knows be never seed that before. One
of the family ha's a bag of peanuts; an
other a paper sack of popcorn; unoth -i
a big striped stick of candy; the old
woman chewing a sandwich and the ol.l
man eating a ginger cake. They roan
at will and take it all in in a day, and g >
out wondering where all these things
come from.
The conventional invalid rolled about
in a chair on wheels made happy by
what she sees. The dude with his one
eyeglass, his striped cap, his quaint
clothes and his empty head. The du-
dine by his side, with her shar|>-toed
shoes, her tiny hands, frizzled hair and
idiotic glance. The drummer, with his
quick and ready wit, ready to laugh,
anxious to talk—hale fellow well met.
enjoying the show, and if there’s om-
not enjoying it, he’s in for putting him
off the grounds. The parson, with his
stove-pipe hat and ministerial coat,
hunting for illustrations with which
to elucidate his metaphysical discourse
next Sunday morning. His effort w ill
be to demonstrate that the works of (Jod
ere great because the work of man is so
Bublime. The school girls, with their
merry laugh and funny puns and prac
tical jokes—they take in the show rap
idly, and feel like the curriculum of the
exposition is broader and better tbiwi
that of any college. The old medical
doctor walking slowly around forgets
bis pills and powders ns he looks upon
the mechanism of man and feels thank
ful that he belongs to the world of
physics. The busy merchant and over
worked lawyer, the town loafer, all
taking in the show from their individ
ual standpoint. The liveried or uni
formed officers and police are tlie only
persons on the grounds who seem to
feel that they're bigger than the show
and greater than the exhibits. One old
turkey gobbler strutting in the barn
yard is a gnat on a bull's horn compared
with them.
AH in all, a day or a week or a month
at the exposition will delight and edu
cate any man with an eye to see and
with room to take in what he sees.
1 must go lignin. The taste hut in
creases the hunger and thirst. 1 saw
the world's fair three different times—
it got bigger every time. 1 must s-e
the Ailanta e<position at leuot as ofU-u
as | saw tbs world's fair.
V e i luck i:nd courage and generosi
ty i I' such x people ought to be com-
inei.ded, patronized and sustained. At
lanta city is now full of people. Her
st reels, her -tores, her hotels, her slreet
ears, her busses, her hacks, everything
filled and everybody in a hurry and
everybody seemingly "iijoying them
selves.
Thecity welcomes the people from the
nort !i and t he east and the west. Every
southern man feels at home, no southern
man especially ought to miss this show'.
The women are being seen and felt
in their work and words, in their ex
hibits and in their enterprises. The
colored people have also come to the
front to show the world that though
they’ve a dark skin, yet they have char
acter and mechanism and intellect.
The railroads are now giving very
low rates from almost all points, and
their equipments and fast trains are
bringing the exhibits almost to t he door
of every man. People should make
sacrifices to attend this show; the mem
ories of it will linger with them to en
lighten. to instruct, to broaden.
1 rejoice in spirit with the people who
gather there fraternally—good will,
love, forgiveness and brotherhood are
manifested on all sides. We shall know
each other better and love each other
more as a nation because of Atlanta’s
pluck and energy in giving to us this
great show, which is but a meeting
; i mid on southern soil, w'here all
slates can gather and feel that what
ever may have been the conditions of
the past, we’re now one people,and sim
ply vie with each other in our efforts to
ri.-e ami to promote progress. I am glad
of the Cotton States’ exposition—I’ve
nothing but kind words and thoughts
and wishes for all interested, and bid
them Cod speed. Sam 1*. Jones.

The embarrassments and annoyances
incident to the existence of a man
v. hose stomach is occupied by a baritone
frog, with n propensity for demanding
r< <-(;-nition at any time, under any cir
cumstances. will readily suggest them-
n 1 vos. Yet this is precisely thepredic-
ami r.l in which James Foley, of Wheat-
land finds himself. One evening recent
ly he v.as sitting with his family play
ing dominoes, when a peculiar grunting
sound made the children jump.
“What’s the matter, James, aren't
you well?” inquired Mrs. Foley.
“Why. 1 didn’t do C at.”
“Yes. you did, James, I heard you.
Have you been drinkingngain?”
Mr. Foley was in the act of making a
mo t emphatic denial, when the sound
\\ as heard again.
“Yes, it comes from me.sure enough,”
he was forced to admit. Like a flash
his mind grasped the true state of af-
i'aii s.lic must have swallowed something
in tin 1 drinking water, and it had grown
inside him.
He has now brought suit against
Philip (’. Dickinson to recover$5,000for
damages to the plaintiff’s health, al-
!cg I to have been caused by drinking
impure wall r furnished by the defend-
;ii:;. " I ' Foley and Dickinson farmsod-
join, and Foley paid his neighbor $12 a
vear for the privilege of using water
from the latter’s well.
Mr. Foley claims that the animal in-
r'de of him is a frog. “I know it’s that,”
aid he, “for nothing else would make
f o queer a noise. Last Sunday in church
t ne fi og took it into his head to kick upa
fuss just as I was enjoying the sermon.
Fir: t 1 knew, it gave a big croak,
everybody looked at me, and, of course.
I got embarrassed. Then It started to
croak still louder. I couldn’t stand that,
so I got iipand walked out. All the way
down the aisle the frog, or whatever it
is. kept making its strange and peculiar
sounds. I'm afraid I’ve queered myself
for that church.
“The worst of it is,” continued Mr.
Foley, “they won't believe me. Every
body seems to think I am doing this for
fun. I can’t go to any little social gath-
ering or prayer meetings without this
infernal animal turning up in my n-
terior.”
Mr. Foley, like many others, doesn’t
tenlize his own possibilities—he doesn’t
knew what’s in him. He ought to make
that fl og pay for his lodgings by earn
ing a lot of money for him.—Oil City

How Sympathy In Marred.
Sympathy, beautiful and pure, is apt
to be marred by its being prompted
merely by a sense of duty, and thus its
true and natural spontaneity is vailed.
It is true that the habit becomes second
nature to us, and by habit we may and
do develop honorable and charitable
sympathy with all suffering, but the
truly sympathetic are so born, and it is
as impossible for them to enshroud
l heir true desires and actions as it
is "to soil a sunbeam by a touch” ft
is in the late youth und mature years
t hat, as a rule, we see its most splendid
achievements. In childhood it is apt to
be in abeyance. In the good old age of
good people its beauty is enhanced, and
vet in many instances, in the sere and
yellow leaf, all that was of sympathy,
what little there might have been, be
comes bitterness, and the selfish man
clings to what ho has gained, coveting
w hat he lias not. with a tenacity which
| batiks description. All his treasures are
I on earth, and as he knows he must and
j : hall leave them, there can be no eternal
l hope in him. and his mind becomes cen-
J len d on that which is of but short du-
I i at ion. He becomes “earthen,” and the
rest of Ids days are spent in sordid con
templation of vvliat at liest isbutanidle
dream.—( hieugo Press.

Of all enlightened nations the Englith
are the most ignorant of affairs and
things outside of England. The dom
inant idea of the common people is that
nothing is worth knowing that is not En
glish, and hence they do not disturb their
minds about our people or our country.
One of our boys was over there last
summer and was amazed at the ignor
ance of some of their educated people.
His landlady had heard of our civil war.
but thought it was between N.rth Amer
ica and South America. That was the
only North and South she knew of. Her
son, a lad of 14, asked my son if he had
any boys at home.
“Yes," said he, “I have four."
"Are they black?” he innocently in
quired.
His mother apologized by saying he
had heard so much about the negroes
over here that he thought most all the
people were black.
A very refined and cultured English
lady dined at our home some years ago
and asked to see our cook, who had pre
pared such delightful dishes. So Aunt
Ann was invited to her presence. She
asked her many questions that were
proper enough, and after she had retired
the lady inquired how long Aunt Ann
had been from Africa. My wife was
surprised and said: “She never was in
Africa. She was born here, and so were
her parents and grandparents.”
The lady then expressed her surprise.
“Why, I thought,” she said, “that they
gradually changed color from the influ
ence of the climate and iu two or three
generations breame almost white.”
We all smiled, of course, but she rallied
to her own defense and sail.: “Well, I
saw some down at the hotel who are
turning white." I told her that there
were a few creoles scattered around
over the country, and then I managed to
change the subject.
This reminds me of neighbor Freeman,
who fussed at big-mouth Bob for going
to meeting so much on work days and
Bob said: “Well, boss, we niggers is
tryin’ to save our souls.”
Freeman smiled and said: “Why. you
old fool, don’t you kuow that a nigger
hasent got any soul? A man up iu Ten
nessee has written a book about that and
! ts done proved that a nigger liasint got
my more soul than n monkey. So what
are you going to meeting for?”
Bob showed his pearly teeth and laugh
ed and then came back at him and said:
’^.ook here, boss, has a melluter got any
soul?”
This perplexed the neighbor for a mo
ment and he said: “Well, I suppose
that a mulatto has got about half a
soul.”
Bob laughed tumultuously and said:
“Well, boss, dat’s all right; hut I don’t
see how a soul can be split iu two.”
The other day I traveled iu the car
with an Ohio farmer who was very talk
ative and friendly. He was emphatically
a horny-handed son of toil, for Ids hands
were seamy and cracked and his stumpy
fingers looked like iron claws. He was
ou a bust, but not from drink. He had
bought a cigar from the newsboy, and
from the way lie managed it I k ew he
was not used to the article.
“Going to the expo’?” said I.
“Waal, yes.” said he. *T’ve got some
neighbors along. We sorter wan’od to see
the South now that things are git ting
along peaceable and there wasent any
laager. Mighty clever people down here,
seems like. We havent seen any disturb
ance.”
“What were you afraid of?” said I.
“Oh. nothing much, hut you see it was
a powerful long stretch fro n home and
there was so many niggers down here
and our folk where I live don’t like nig
gers. I stopped over n day in Chatta
nooga and saw lots of uiggers and they
seemed to be peaceable enough, and was
bavin’ more fun than the white folk, so
we concluded to come on further down.
We want to get acquainted with you
people and maybe we will like one another
better. Some of us arc gittiu’ tired of six
months winter and would like to change
climate. We have been talkin’ about it
several years, but some said tbe war
wasent over down here and some said the
niggers would perish us out and our
preacher said we would have to turn
Democrats the first thing or leave the
country. I’ve got a good farm of 118
teres and I cap sell it any day for $1(1,-
)00. It pays a good interest on that. 1
sold $400 worth of back wheat last week
and 800 bushels of apples. I raise cattle
and hogs and potatoes and hops and
wheat and corn and fowl and everything,
but my wife is runuin* down-hil); she
works too hard and the doctor says she
would live longer iu a warmer climate, so
I’m going to look around for a farm a tore
I go back.”
He talked fair and honest, and was a
tample copy of thousands of those people
who have beeu for half a century as ig-
aorant about the South us if we lived on
ipother continent. Now, that man can
> >uy pur best farming laud for $."><) an
acre; laud that will produce everything
• hat he grows in Ohio and cotton and
sweet potatoes besides, and fie wop Id
mve ten months to work iu instead of
iix, and no doubt his wife would live
tevcral years longer.
But it is all right, and has no doubt
been u blessing in disgui e that the tid‘
)f immigration went West instead of
South. As Mr. Loomis said, our pimple
have preserved their Americanism.
I am no A. I*. A., aud never expect to
be, but I do like to mingle with our game
iort of people; what you call a homo
geneous people, a. people who value good
principles and truth and fairness in trade
and respect for law and reverence for
woman.
But I like that Ohio man I traveled
with nud his sort would find welcome
town here iu Dixie. He would hurc
come long ago but he was afraid. Ho
lident know anything about us except
that we would fight. “they all knew
that,” he said.
But just consider those English. Even
their editors are ridiculously ignorant of
jur country. Only a few days
ago a Lbmloq daily published a
brief notice of our cxpo-ltiuu and
•oented it at Atlantic City. It
told of the Liberty bell that was taken
from the dome of the lMp!M at Wash ng-
ton to open tho exposition with and that
Professor Booker Washington, who waa
a lineal d s endnnt of Gorge Washing
ton, the first American President, made
the opening address, and that one of the
novelties was a grove of cottonwood trees
full of cotton, and that the exposition
realized the dream of Thomas F. Grady,
the father of the Solid South.
How is that for blunders? It looks
like a joke, but it was not. I knew an
Englishman who told me he had been
taught that cotton grow on large trees
and was gathered by using ladders.
The South has always been better ac
quainted with the North than the North
has been with us. Our merchants used
to go North twice a year to buy their
goods and our rich people visited their
ei'tes and watering places every summer,
but there was nothin' for them to come
down here for. Albion Tourgee came
down on u fool’s errand after the war
and went hack and wrote that our people
were all born politicians. Gov. Altgeld
said the other day iu his beautiful ad
dress that we were all horn orators. Mr.
Loomis says we are native-born Ameri
can patriots aud several speakers said
that hospitality was an inborn Southern
trait. It is really refreshing to read their
praises and compliments.
The other day a caravan of wagons
and pin)] le can e thr u h < ur town moving
to lower Georgia. Oil** of the head men
was sick and Dr. Calhoun visited him
and prescribed and the prescription was
tilled at the drug store near by. The
man asked the doctor fur his charge and
he said: “No charge for that, n y friend;
you are too far from ho ne to charge.”
The druggist told him the same, and the
man said: “Well, gentlemen, I don’t un
derstand you peopie down here. I am
able to pay my way and don’t want to
beg it. There are several hundred com
ing from my section and more will keep
coming when we write back how we are
treated.” The truth is, I believe the
hackbne of our alienation is broken and
hereafter the North and South will fully
harmonize. We don’t ask them to turn
Democrats, for they will soon do that
after they have lived with us awhile. We
are right smartly iu the minority now,
so far as national polities is couceriied,
hut that don’t trouble anybody 1m! the
postmas.ers and the r. venue ircn. and we
keep on hand enough clever Republicans
to fill those offices when the time comes.
So let the procession proceed, for
whetb r the tariff is high or low; whether
it’s gold < nly or gold and silver, we can
stand |t if they can. 1 read Mr. Crisp’s
speech nud I uni pr ud of him. He is
