Tennyson:
When the centuriej behind me like a fruitful land repojea,
When I clung to ail the preient for the promiie that it cloaed.
When I dipped into the future far as human eye could aee,
Saw the vision of the world and all the wonder that would be.”

back before the days of earliest recorded history; Charles Edward

in between the teeming, busy, restless, resistless present is presented'
in many a tale, such as “The Thief Takers of Paris,” by Vance
Thompson; “Help! Help! Help!” the old problem of domestic
service, by Roy L. McCardell; Hughes and Jerome contrasted, by

SOUTH ATLANTA NEGROES
DRAW UP RESOLUTIONS
CONCERNING THE RIOT
1< the Cltlxens of Atlanta:
We, the undersigned resident* of
Ruth Atlanta, beg leave to state our
sew of the recent deplorable killing
•f the brave officer, J. I„ Heard, and
jur position upon matters of vital con
cern to the city and state.
First. We have no word of pallia
tion or excuse or justification for the
killing of Officer Heard. We condemn
It and denounce the men who tired
upon that officer as violators of the
peace and as perpetrators of a crime
that must be punished to the full, ex
tent of the law.
Second. It Is our deliberate convic
tion, baaed upon the proverbial order
liness of our community, that this
shameful deed was done In the heat of
passion, wrought up to a high and un
necessary pitch by the wild rumors of
the coming of a mob. Worked up by
this fear, a few men thought that the
approach of the officers was the coming
of the mob and some one fired the fatal
shot, not Intending In the least to re
sist arrest or to lire upon the officers.
They thought that the mob was firing
upon them. They would not have re
sisted arrest had they known the sit
uation. *
rtat, to the contrary notwithstand
ing we believe that the deed should be
punished and we here pledge ourselves
by ill the respect we have for law and
goifl order to co-operate with the prop
er authorities In ferreting out the one
why did the fatal shooting.
Ihlrd. Our community Is composed
of | upwards of two thousand quiet,
peaceable, law-abiding, sober and In-
dtptrlous persons. We have no sa-
lions, no special police regulation, no
biwdy houses, no gambling dens and
n> hellish dive*. We have four
r/mrehes, two great Institutions of
burning, one public school, grocery
(tores, drug store Is building, meat
imrket, blacksmith shop and other
tores for the supply of the commodt-
les of life. The South Atlanta Land
'ompany will bear testimony that our
neople are rapidly buying land, bulki
ng houses and thus giving to the state
the best pledge of good cltlsenshlp.
Fourth. We place ourselves upon rec
ord In unmistakable language with the
bort white people of our community
end of Atlanta, upon the following
fundamentals of our civilisation:
A. All raplsta must be punished ful-
COFFEE WAS IT
People Slowly Learn the Faets.
"All my life 1 have been such a slave
to coffee that the very aroma of It was
enough to set my nerves quivering.
"I kept gradually losing my health,
but l used to say ‘nonsense,' It don’t
hurt me. slowly I was forced to admit
the truth and the Anal result was that
my whole nervous force was shattered.
"My heart became weak and uncer
tain In Its action and that frightened
toe. Finally my physician told me,
about a year ago, that I must stop
drinking coffee or I could never expect
to he well again.

thought of the medicines I had tried

hetous, nourishing, rich drink It was.
‘{d.Tou know I found It very easy to

not mind the change at all? Almost
tntmediately after I made the change I
round myself better, and as the days

ly, quickly and without mercy. He who
Insults the purity of woman must have
no quarter. We have no language
strong enough Ho condemn these block
men tvho have stirred up hatred of the
races by their crimes against the white
women. Wo want them punished. We
say no quarter to them, for they do not
respect their own women. Let no guil
ty man escape.
B. We want all dives and saloons
closed. The Infamous negro dives all
over the city Is the hell-bottom of our
race and we appeal to the law to save
us from the destruction that sweeps
through these pits.
C. We pledge ourselves to aid every
effort to apprehend all criminals.
D. We believe that vagrants are ene.
mles of the South and they should be
taught that good government requires
good cltlsent, and good cltisens work
and If they will not work voluntarily
they should be made to work Involun
tarily, under the lash of the law. We
would write In large letters: Death to
Vagrants.
E. We believe In obedience to law.
The law Is supreme and we pledge our
selves to bring our people up to the
standards required by good govern
ment. ..
F. We believe In the protection of the
Innocent.
Finally. We assure the citxens of At
lanta that with their help we shall be
able to bring up this former slave
people to the mark of good order and
Christian civilisation.
We ask your help, your protection,
your encouragement and your conll-
dence. Yours,

"The day for the big chorus and

remarked Mr. Cohan. True to his con
victlons, his next play, ’’Forty-live

tained five musical numbers, while the

Hap Ward has ever been the produc.
lng genius of this most successful team
of comedians, and that all of the pro

Vokes were staged by Mr. Ward. The

NEGRO MINISTER
AIDING THE POLICE
Special to The Georgian.
Columbus, Ga, Sept. 28.—There la
every evidence here that the best class
of negroes deprecate the lawlessness of
tbelr race, and the fact that a negro
preacher made a report to the police of
a case against the city ordinances la
taken to mean that a more loyal and
law-abiding spirit will be the result of
the present agitation of the race ques
tion. It Is the first case on record In
this city, and resulted In a fine of 319.
