GEORGIA'S CENTRAL CITY. THE black belt and the white MAN’S COUNTRY. ger Exceptional Location Midway Be tween the Primary and Secondary Geological Formations A Noble Corps of Drummers-Macon in the Van Educational, Colleges, Free Schools Charitable Institutions State Fair-President Northen—The Outlook of the Exhibition - President Davis A Generous Rivalry—Only a Two-Thirds Crop of Cotton. The city of Macon possesses one of the most salient and advantageous locations, considered from every point of view, to bo found in the South. Just here is the dividing line between the primary and secondary geological formations. To the north a billy region abounding in purling streams and springs of the purest freestone water, where wheat and all the cereals flourish, and that crowning blessing of life, good health, may be enjoyed. South of this the famous black belt stretches forth, where ‘‘King Cottoii” rules supreme, and the African element, numerically, predominates largely. The former is emphatically a WHITE MAN’S COUNTRY n ow, and will remain so to the end of time. In this favored climate all the productions of the temperate zone may be successfully grown, and the farmer, with the assistance of his stalwart sons, is absolutely inde pendent of negro labor. Grapes, peaches, sugar cane, melons, sweet potatoes, tobacco and the LeConte pear find their native home in the genial soil. To assure success, industry, proper fertilization and intelli gent cultivation are all that is required. The soil, when apparently exhausted by re peated cropping year after year, if allowed to rest, and protected from washing, recup erates with wonderful rapidity, and with ordinary attention will steadily improve. The so called BLACK BELT, embracing all of Southwestern Georgia and a large portion of Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, is the home of the cotton plant, and in Georgia, at least, so soft and genial is the soil, that often as many as fifty acres to the mule is successfully cultivated. Here, too, vegetables, melons and truck farming generally are found to be valuable addenda to the revenue derived from the great staple. Both of these important sections pour their rich products into Macon,w'hich of late years lias liecoine a leading distributing point for the trade of the State. Indeed, her wholesale houses and enterprising commer cial travelers knock at the very doors of Atlanta, Augusta and Savannah, and com pete with success for the business of those places. The growth of the city has been substan tial, as w ell as rapid, and numerous manu facturing industries, both small and great, have been established, each contributing its share to the general prosperity. EDUCATIONAL. The schools and colleges of Macon place her deservedly in the front rank among the educational centres of the South. Outside of these which are all liberally endowed ami generously supported, we find here a system of free schools which cannot be sur passed in any community. They have dis armed opposition and are annually adding to the list of matriculates, which include the children of the best and most influential citizens. Well may Macon be proud of her public schools. CHARITABLE INSTITUTIONS. These are numerous, representing alike the State, county and city. Here w'e have that admirable foundation, the Academy for the Blind, presided over by Prof. W. D. Williams, who has succeeded in making skilled artisans, musical experts and useful citizens of the unfortunate patients under his tutelage; the famous Appleton Home, the Orphan Asylum, recently destroyed by tire, but replaced with a handsome brick edifice, the Alexander High School, richly endowed, and its 100 free scholarships eagerly sought after, and last, but not least, the ROFF HOME, just completed, and used by the city and county as a poor house and hospital. This model institution is deserving of more par ticular notice. It is named in honor of the donor of the site, Mr. Roft\ who in 1872 gave 42 acres of land, beautifully situated in Vineville, to Bibb county, to be used as a hospital, or home for the destitute. Recently, by agreement with the County Commissioners, the city has erected a clus ter of eight commodious and handsome cottages, all detached from each other, and thoroughly ventilated, finished and fur nished with special attention to the comfort and convenience of the inmates. The pest house, for patients afflicted with small-pox and other contagious diseases, is placed at the farthest end of the grounds, where there can be no danger from contact or atmos pheric influence. Mr. Harmon, the veteran superintendent of the former County Hos pital, is in charge, and it would be difficult to find any one who could fill the situation as acceptably and faithfully to the authorities and the poor sufferers themselves. All the bed rooms, halls and dining apartments are kept scrupulously clean and neat, and the table fare of the patients is abundant, nutritious and well cooked. The dispen sary, kitchen, pantry, bath rooms, offices anil residence of the Superintendent are all deftly arranged and equipped with every needed convenience. In short, this city and county hospitui and poor house is a blessing to the community, and almost faultless in every respect. The average number of the inmates and patients is about DO. THE STATE FAIR looms up with far greater significance and promise than any previous annual exhibit of the Georgia Agricultural Society ever presented to the public. President Northen, himself a model farmer and stock raiser, is devoting every energy to the enterprise, and when the park gates are opened there will be seen an unprecedented array of the products and uustries of Georgia, illustrating, as never tas ueen uone before, the varied resources 1 f the Empire State of the South in the '-'•ld, garden, orchard, factory, •'-iry, fine arts, machinery and iventive genius of her people. Choice flooded stock, representing the best strains ‘ f horses, cattle, swine, sheen and poultry will bo on hand by the hundred, and such a cornucopia of good things as were never gathered together in our Southland will greet the fading vision of the beloved, erst while President of the Southern Confed eracy, and the host of reverential comrades and visitors who will joyfully come forth to greet him, on what will doubtless bo his last appearance in public. Mr. Northen is also ably assisted by Supt. Robert Nisbet, Secretary Green, the Execu tive Committee and the Macon Hoard of Trade. It cannot be disguised also, that the rivalry caused by the Piedmont Exhibition has given an extraordinary irnjietus to our State Fair. Macon does not intend to be outdone by Atlanta, and the result will lie two of the grandest exhibition* of modern times in the single State of Georgia, each unique in itself and challenging the admiration of the whole Union. This gen erous rivalry but serves to develop more ex haustively the resources of our beloved commonwealth, and will result in great g°od to every branch of industry. Success say we to both the Piedmont auu State ag ricultural fail's. THE CHOPS. Personal observation and the unanimous toport of every plantation in Middle and Southwestern Georgia that wo have seen, but serves to place beyond a peradventure tliut the cotton crop of Georgia will bo less than two-thirds. 801 l worms, rust, cater pillar, drought, and on the bottom lands the lreshets,have effectually dispelled the bright prospects of the farmer, so exultantly heralded some woks ago. Now, from a half to two-thirds of an average crop is all that the most sanguine expect. Prices, too, continue to rule low all the same, and the outlook is not promising. Of com, however, there will be an abund ant yield, but potatoes, sugar corn and peas are cut short. Still there will lie bread enough and to spare in the laud, for which let us devoutly return thanks. It might have been much worse. H. H. J. SITTING ROOM AN D_ SIDE WALK.* The Married Belles Throw the Young Buds in the Shade. New York, Oct. B.—“Do you know there wasn’t a single notable dance led by a girl in her first season in New York last win ter?” The speaker was a “bud" who will make her debut in that small but much talked of circle that calls itself New York society when the cold weather has driven the last summer wanderers back from their country houses to the pavements again. “New York is a bad place for a debutante now; the married belles carry off all the honors. That is why so many of the young girls go abroad and stay till they are old enough to win some attention here. There isn’t one of them who stands the ghost of a chance against Mrs. Coleman Drayton’s gowns. There’s Mi’s. Goelet, Mrs. Ogden Mills, Jr., Mrs. Frederick Jones, and two or three dozen more. An 18-year-old is nowhere when they are about. Mi's. "Willie Astor leads the dances; if she doesn’t Mrs. Burke Rocho does. There might as well lie no charity balls, no Patriarchs no Junior Patriarchs for that, matter, so far rs the younger fry are concerned, and as for the private entertainments it’s much the same thing there. The “buds” take what part ners are left when the young married women have had their choice.” It is certainly true that to be too young is out of style in the metropolis: (Sirls are not the fashion any more. The married belles dance just as well, dress more richly, and talk better; it dosn’t compromise the well-dressed young man from the bachelor apartment which ne is in no haste to desert for Benedicts’ quarters to dance attendance upon them, and take it all in all, now is the married belle’s reign. The popular unmar ried women who quoen it in the ball rooms are, like Miss Adelo Grant and Miss Wins low, of more than one season’s standing. The debutantes —with tho exception of a younger Miss Chamberlain, Miss Wood worth and Miss Agnes Lawrence there wont be a large number of them this winter—are eagerly heralded; the society world is anxious to see them, families clamor for the privilege of chaperoning them, but after all they are likely to enjoy their second and third seasons better, and to get more desirable partners than in their first. FASHIONS IN DANCES. “Fashions in dances change about once in three years.” This statement, coming from one of the oldest and best known dancing masters in the country, carried with it a certain weight of authority. “Changes in dances and in dancing are all a matter of fashion, of course. Americans demand novelty in everything. It takes a certain length of time to introduce anew dance, though, and hence the cycle is, as I gave it to you, about three years. The first year I call preparation; that is while people are finding out tho existence of the dance and learning to perform it. The second year is execution; that is while it is popular and all the dance programmes include it. The third year is decadence; that is the last of it. You no sooner get a good dance than you throw it away again.” “And what is the place of the coming season in your cycle?’ “It is about the second year. This is going to be a dancing winter.” Everybody will dance and it will be the best year in a long time to really get new dances put upon the floor.” “What are some of the new dances going to be ?’ “Well, the idea of having eight couples in a set instead of four is going to take mght ily, to all appearance, and people are going to dance in octagons instead of squares. The first dance of this sort the original “Octa fon,” is very pretty and very intricate. 'he eight couples required to form it are divided into side couples and corner couples and they face one another, so as to make an octagonal figure. It is made up of five numbers, each having several figures, and is a very artistic dance with graceful courtesy mg, gliding and saluting. The Octagon is full of passing under arches of arms and forming diagonal and parallel lines. It has novel steps in it, too, and dancers take to it because Americans hate to stand still and it keeps all eight couples in motion at once.” The Octagon, so the Professor of the Terpsiohorean art went on to inform me, will relievo the strain on the intellects of the couples who load the german this winter, supplying an amount of variety that will do away with any call for improvisations ex cept where original genius comes bubbling up of its owu accord and is not forced. The most intricate new dance that most trippers of the light fantastic will bo introduced to this winter is a revival of the stately old court dances, and is dubbed the Mistletoe Minuet. It is a complex dance, difficult to master, amusingly solemn and very picturesque. Only devotees will learn it, but it is a very graceful dance, and like the Octagon, will go well in the german. Both these dances take a large space to do them in properly, and it is hinted that there will be some elaborate costuming at a carnival or two on whose list they are already set down. There are only two new round dances that one will hear much of this winter, the Columbia and the American gavotte, stirring, animated things both that will add to the life of the ball room. Standard time for dancing is one of the things to be insisted on this winter. “Faster, that’s too slow for us, we can’t dance to that time,” is the usual appeal to the leader of tho orchestra or the musicians. “Can’t help it, standard time, we play by the metro nome,” will be the inexorable reply when the instruments tune up next. Waltz, 3-4 time, 65 measures, 192 beats to the minute; polka, 2-4 time, 58 measures, 11(1 beats; schottisehe, 4-4 time, 3*5 measures, 144 beats; galop, 2-4 time, 72 measures, 144 beats; ntazourka, 3-4 time, 48 measures, 144 beats; quadrille and landers, *l-8 time, 58 measures, 11(1 beats; such is the latest decree of fate, that is if that light-footed body, the Ameri can Society of Professors of Dancing, and they have nearly all the musicians in the country bound fast in their league. They have decided it, they tell you how you should dance and they know all about it. To do the gyrating professors justice they have reduced dancing to a science in this country. The same dance means the same thing everywhere, is danced in tho same way and to the same time with a precision that is every season increasing. “Americans are tho best dancers in the world." The sentence sounded positive. “How about the German waltzing and French dancers?’ I ventured to inquire. “Over there they are not progressive. They never change. They dance now just as they danced forty years ago. In Paris and in London, too, tho (lancing is what we should call primitive. In their square dune *s only one couple move at a time. It is first lady and opposite gentle man, forward and back, cross over and so on through all tho evolutions, the rest of tho set waiting for their turn. We did away with that ten years ago and the whole set dance at once. Our dancing is more of a study than theirs.” “With all your new thiugs you have not superseded the waltz.” “Nor are ever likely to, but all our dances change. Thirty or forty years ago a lady danced well or ill according to the number of steps, difficult steps, too, that she could take in a figure. Then the steps were dropped and every body walked through the figures. Now people are introducing stops again, a whole S“t taking the same ones as they all move together in the same direction. There iH the waltz. People who learned i, ten years ago can’t dance it now. The new waltz is a combination of waltz and redowu, very delightful but very differ ent.

Society wants to be tickled with new dances as with new playthings. It throws them away very soon, but it dances them well while it dances them at all.” THE WINTER CLOAK stands upon its dignity. It is a stately sort of garment to which low bows are in order, and in whose presence a nice regard for the proprieties of life, a pnuctilious decorum, suggests itself as the only behavior allow able. It is a long cloak covering the figure from head to foot; it is a costly cloak, never dropping in price below the hundreds; it ir. an awe-inspiring cloak with its air of warmth and luxury and carriago cushions and full pocketbooks. The city is prosperous and everything goes well when such a cloak is not the occasional, but the constant ap parition. The winter cloak is a rich almost a regal, silk plush, that avoids, as if it were con tamination, the look of a seal plush. It is black, it fits the figum behind with long, simple draperies adjusted over the bustle. It is perhaps lialf fitting, perhaps loose in front, and it has a broad edge of long bears’ fur compassing it everywhere about. It doesn’t condescend to jet or beads. Its hobby, its one delight is braid, Sometimes it has a network of intricately woven silken cords laid over it simulating the short wrap whose place the cloak has usurped. Some times it has a cape or a visite form upon its shoulders concocted of this same rich, delicate silk braid. Sometimes it contents itself simply with a braided vest, and nearly always it has panel draperies of elaborately wrought braid work. Tho eloak in fact aspires to be a lavishly rich outer gown of plush for street or carriage with gown shape, gown draperies, gown panel trimmings, anu . o complete the illusion a semblance of a coquettish short wrap adjusted above all. The cloak is a work of genius, but it takes money to buy it. The fall color, almost as general as helio trope was last spring, is copper. The femin ine world is copper-colored on all occasions. E. R. H. PETITE WOMEN THE FASHION. The Big Ones Going Out of Fashion. New York, Oct. B.—Now that plaids and crossbars are seen in all the new materials, it may not be out of place to designate how and by whom these patterns should be worn. We all know—even those among us who have not studied the laws of proportion and effect—that large designs of any sort make a cost unis very trying to the wearer. Un fortunately for the manufacturers of “high class novelties," the days when giants stalked over the earth are no more; for, in deed, giants are required if these immense bars and stripes and arabesques are to be really worn. A recent work on physical beauty asserts that the tendency in women of the present day is toward smallness of stature. Big women, in fact are going out of fashion. This being the case, by all means let us have materials that present designs suitably adapted to the human figure as it actually exists and not as it may appear in tho imaginations of manufactur ers. Plaids of any description make a woman look shorter than she actually is, in the same manner that stripes, when they are narrow and elongated, produce an appear ance of slenderness. A skirt made in imita tion of a colossal chessboard of variegated hues cannot be either pretty or graceful. A very tall woman or one slightly above medium height can wear a plaid of moder ately large checks, but if she lie short or dumpy, or even tall and fat, let her eschew such patterns as the abomination of desola tion. Nevertheless, soon our streets will doubtless be filled with perambulating checker boards and striped awnings; tor, of course, fashions are invented to be worn, and consequently women will adopt them whether they are suitable or not. If the designs themselves are ugly and out of place, however, a word must be said in favor of the colors that are rich and striking. Neutral tints, so trying to most women, have given way to"warm shades that are distinctly beautiful and becoming. Clara Lanza. THE ANARCHISTS’ WIVES. Women Who Threaten to Follow Their Husbands to Death. From the Few York Star. A reporter has elicited from Mrs. Black the statement that if the Chicago Anarchists are hanged their wives will kill their chil dren and then commit suicide. Mrs. Black then proceeded to explain what a loss such a slaughter would be the community. Mrs. Spies, “a colorless, dimpled, statu esque beauty, with deep-set dark blue eyes,” should die first, if appearances go for much, but as she is childless she has little to give to the good cause. Mrs. Lucy Parsons, “who is very grace ful in her movements, has the hand and complexion of a quadroon and is coura geous, eloquent and an affectionate mother,” has two attractive children to immolate. Mrs. Engel, “a quiet, unobtrusive little woman of 55, who is fond of home and sim plicity,” has the hardest duty of all to per form, as her six children are all grown, and will decidedly object to being sacrificed. Mrs. Fischer, “only 19, is a lovely bru nette, with melting "black eyes,” but has three little ones ready to be murdered. Mrs. Schwab, “who used to carry the red flag in the processions,” is childless and must befeontent to die alone. Mrs. Fielden “isn’t a bit pretty, but has a very pathetic appearance,” and can con tribute a number of infants to the holo caust. Mrs. Oscar Neebe is already dead. Lingg is unmarried, and it is not supposed that the “beautiful and wealthy young girl in love with him” will feel called upon to kill herself. Mrs. Black is the wife of the lawyer who has worked so hai-d to save the necks of the Anarchists. She does not state what her own programme will be, if her bus band’s efforts fail, but if she receives one tithe of her deserts she should at least !h> tongue-tied for the rest of her natural life. It is a terrible vengeance that the law is about to take. The sense of the community, though deeply impressed by the solemnity of tho doom that awaits seven human ticings, is thoroughly imbued with the justice of the sentence. \Ve are in no mood to listen to the ribald threats and idle prattle of a fool ish woman. Had Mm. Black a particle of that pro found sympathy and compassion which she professes for the families of the condemned, she would find her true mission in pre paring them for the awful ordeal that awaits them, instead of trying to incite them to still wilder and more horrible acts of revenge. A DIVER'S AWFUL EXPERIENCE. Pinned to the Bottom By a Rock That Had Fallen on His Leg. From the Washington Star. A telegram from Portland, Me., Oct. 4, says: “Gardiner Floyd, a well known divor of this city, had an awful experience many feet uuder water at Mattawamkeng, a few days ago. He was at work on a foundation for a coffer dam at the site of a pier for a now bridge for the Canadian Pacific rail road. He had put a chain around a big rock and given the signal to hoist it, when a large piece of the rock broke off. It fell upon the (liver, knocked him down and pinned one leg and foot to the bottom. His crowbar was just beyond hi* reach, and lie feared every moment tliat his air supply would give out. Tho bottom was of mud and gravel, and rather soft. Mr. Floyd set to work to dig himself free with his hands. As fast a* lie undermined the rock he propped it with small stones. He dug away for dear life for just half on hour before he succeeded In getting his leg free. His air hose was resting on two points of a lodge, but by careful handling ho got it straight ened out and gave the signal to hoist. He was completely exhausted when he reached the surface. His foot and leg were badly bruised, but no bones were broken. Its thousands of cures are the best adver tisement for Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy. MEDICAL.
