The Annual Concert of Young
Female College One'oi the
Most Brilliant in the JHUstory
of the College.
TLo business of the Western Union
office in this city has increased ten
siaoe the melon season opened.
.Some very fine Thomas melons'
were on sale at the groceries yester
day for 20 and 25 cents. This is a
low price tor this early in the season.
I'he Alabama Midland is getting its
share of the melon business. It is
the quickest and most direct route
west.
Everyone wishes the college girls
ai d boys and the little tot*s in every
private school in the town, the hap
piest of happy vacations..
Watermelon men and railroad solic
itors arc as thick as fleas in Thomas-
ville. But they are far more agreeable.
In fact they are a jolly set of fellows.
Fitly seven carloads of melons were
shipped from off the line of the S. F.
& \V. on Tuesday against forty-eight
on the same date last year.
'I'he first car load of. melons from
Metcalfe to Chicago were shipped by
Mr. O A. ihoinas and not by Mr.
T. J. Horne as we sfated a few days
ago
Mr. W.’II. Mitchell arid Mr.
l»n.q>ar del Pmo are out West selling
cigars for the Cubans City Cigar Com-
pu»y. We learn that they are meet-
iug with very great success.
A dispatch from Chicago says:
‘•The Scottish'clan, MacLean, is gath
ering for a family reunnn on Fri
day.” Kenneth MacLean ought to
iheie to represent the Georgia con-
lii g'.Mit of that famous clan.
It is amusing to see the wistful

WATCH
Last night brought to* a close the
commencement season in Thomasvifle.
Throughout the varied and interest
ing exercises ot both colleges during
the past ten dsya the annual concert
bythe music department of .Young
Female College, which was given last
night at the opera house, has been
looked forward to with anticipations
of pleasure, and with an interest which
•bowed unmistakably that the people
expected this,to he the crowning
event of the commencement season.
There is no disguising the fact that
the public always appreciate and en*»
joy there concerts more than any
other feature of the exercises incident
to the closing of the school, not
because the others are dull and lack
ing in entertaining qualities, but
every one, almost without exception,
is fond of music, and these concerts
have long ago become famous for the
high order of music rendered, __ ‘
It is no wonder then that the opera
house was again crowded lost night.
Crowded, did we say? Well, packed
would express the situation better,
for notwithstanding' the immense
seating capacity of the house there
was not a vacant seat on the whole
floor. We know that President
Baker, Mbs Stegall and all connected
with the school must have felt highly
complimented when they looked out
over this vast and brilliant assemblage
of the l»CBt people of the town, who
braved the heat and endured the
crowding to see aud listen to the bril
liant programme that was presented.
The exercises commenced promptly
on time and the following programme
was rendered:
PRAYER.
PART FIRST,
1. Overture—Ditcher uml Ikaur- Suppt*
Misses Parker, Bibb, Jennings Montgomery.
2. Chorus—Who will totheG.eeu-

3. Duett—SJi’.ver Spray Drumheller

t. Solo—Nocturne .....Chopin
T Kope Elias.
The Washington correspondent of
the Richmond Dispatch writing to
that paper, thus refers to a prominent
young North .Carolinian: -
“Senator Vanco came in this after,
neon from North Carolina. It ia
understood he telegraphed the powers
that be to hold up appointments in
the Western District until he could
be heard, and it is also claimed ha
will make a final attempt to have H.
A. ,Gudger, of Ashville, appointed
Collector of Internal Revenue in
stead of Kope Elias, who, it Is gener
ally believed now, will be Collector.'
The prevailing impression here is that
if Senator Vance ecore> his point and
change! the arrangement Glenn will
be knocked out for attorney and
Elias giyen that place. Elias will be
named for one or the other aa the
Freodent tells nearly everybody that
he is bound to provide for Elias.’
Mr. Elias is a brother of Mr. Dave
Elias and Mrs. I. Levy. During a
short visit here some time ego he
made many friends in Thomasviile-
He is one of the brightest young men
in North Carotins. A fine lawyer,
doing a big practice, a captivating
speaker, ready and eloquent at all
times, he wins fame and friends
everywhere he goes His speech in
the Chicago convention seconding the
nomination of Adlai Stevenson for
vice-president, was a genuine burst of
oratory.^ He held the profound at
tention of that great convention aa
but tow men could. Kope Elias did
yoeman service for Mr. Cleveland at
a time when Mr. Cleveland needed
aid. Ho was for Grover first last and
all the time, and it is hut simple
justice that he should be remembered
in a substantia! manner by the ad
ministration.

The entire programme, aud many
of the pieces were extremely difficult,
was rendered faultlessly. Mia* Ste
gall, the accomplished principal of the
music department, i* a finished musi
cian, and to her is due the credit for
the very successful manner in which
the programme was carried out. She
and her friends mast certainly feel
gratified at the result of her eflerts.
The audience was a very apprecia
tive one and was at times almost
Boisterous in its applause.
The operetta by Misses Ada Kuder,
Bessie Smith, Pauline Mitchell, Cul
pepper, Cochran, Parker and Alva
Brown, wa* one of the hits ot the
evening. The sweet faces of the
little girls combined with the beautiful
costumes and appropriate stage set-
ring made a veritable fairy scene.
The best thing on the whole pro
gramme was the “Shepherd’s Drill,”
which was participated in by the fol
lowing young ladles: Misses Hopkins,
Fuller, Dekle, Horne, Pringle, Jen
nings, Campbell, Mallard, Whitfield,
Hurst, Brown, Williams, Eason,
Montgomery and Kuder. The young
ladies went through the many beauti
ful and intricate movements with
rare grace and precision. The audi
ence went wild over the drill and the
girls were forced to respond to an
enthusiastic encore.
The entire concert was a success ic
every sense of th? word, and we most
congratulate Miss Stegall,, the pains
taking teacher, on the highly credit
able presentation of the lengthy bat
very interesting programme.
Changes Hands.
The Thomas?ill* Electric Light
arvl Power Company has changed
haitds. The Thomasviile Exchange
and Banking Company bought out
the old concern on Monday and took
charge of thf. plant yesterday. Mr.
Thtupn, the well known civil engin
eer and. architect, was made superins
tenderst. of the works, which will here
after bo ander hi* persona; .inpervis-
ioh. Mr. Thrupp is thoroughly qual
ified tr. attend lo this business and
will Atonduet it in a wise and buEiaesa
like mauner. The p’aut will bo
moved iu u very abort time to the
power house at La Cubana- An iu-
cnndeiMNir.i system will also be added.
The company ba* ordered new en-»
giue, dynamos, etc , and will give the
town better lights than ever before at
a less rate. The electric light com
pany is one of the best paying invest
ments iu the city and we are glad
that the Exchange and Banking
Company, which has done aud is do
ing so much for Thomasviile, has
gotten hold of it.
A Liberal Offer.
It is astonishing as well as deplora
ble the amonnt of ignorance that
exists even among the white people
of some sections of the country.
Hard-y a day passes but what some
evidence of the dense ignorance which
is prevalent in some localities comes
to light. Mr. Charley Stuart, the
genial proprietor of the Stuart House,
received a postal card a few days ago
from a party in North Carolina en
quiring about board, etc , at his hotel.
He has handed us the card, which we

At a meeting of the board of trustees
of the above institution, held at tke
Citizen’s Bank Yesterday .afternoon
President Culpepper presiding. Col..
J."Colton Lynes war elected president
for the next scholastic year. As the
state’s appropriation has been exhaust*
ed and the State University has cut
off further appropriations, the college
ill be rua on its merits. Col. Lynes,
confessedly one of the foremost educa<
tors in the state, will give all of his
personal attention and time between

to working up a full attendance
is expected that the next term will
show the largest number ever enrolled

Col Lynes has been eminently sue
cessful in building up other similar
institutions and he will no doubt sue

College in the front rank of Georgia’s
educational establishments.

I have decided, therefore, that aa it
is still a problem unsolved, that I
might say some word that would be
the means of assisting some man better
posted than myself to solve thorough
ly and satisfactorily the great ques
tion at Issue.
They call it a. problem that needs
to be solved, or worked out, especially
in its relationship to the white race,
and every thoughtful man and woman
should realize its magnitude and give
it a wise and unprejudiced considera
tion. I am very much in sympathy
with Dr. S. J. Cobb’s views, when he
says that the only way to settle the
negro question for all time to come
in this country is to send them back
to Africa, to the land of their nativi
ty. But the manner he advises the
colored people to go about it. by or
ganizing themselves into African em
igration societies, I think in my
judgment wonld have a very disas
trous effect upon the colored race.
The colored people as a general think
are ignorant, and to go to work and
organize them in to African emi
gration associations all over
tliia country would have tho same
effect upon some of them the emanci
pation had, especially they being as
anxious aa they are to get away from
country, as ha* been liemor.strat-
ed by them so often iu the past few
ears; but when he says let ihe white
north and south furnish the
means to send them back, I agree
ith him fully, for there is no disput-
the fact that both sections arc
oriole for his being iti this coun
try, and have been profited by their
servitude. Therefore, lot the white
jxsople north anil south organize
themselves, thoeo that are in favor
mac ting such legislation as will
le them to accomplish the desired
end, and they will, find that the
lored people are ready at any lime.
The greatest trouble is for the white
folks to get the money ready, and I
endorse Dr. Cobb’9 sentiments when
he says that the sooner it is done tb*e
better it will be for both races, for
there is no donbt of the faot that the
two races are growing farther apart
every day, and, os the Dr. says, if it
is delayed too long something terri
ble may come of it. These have been
my sentiments for some time. The
colored race is making very rapid
progress in education. After the
race is educated it will be man for
man in this country, and not color.
As it now is, you can take a colored
man that douT know his a b c’s and
he feels himself an inferior being to a
white man, and take one that has
been educated and be feels himself a
whito man’s equal. Why is this ? it
is because education teaches him that
God created all men equal, and that
out of one blood God created all of
the nations of the earth, and he has
learned that there is nothing great in
the world bat man, and that there is
nothing great in roan but mind.
Learning elevates the lowest orders of
society, stamps the highest value on
nobility, and to princes is the most
splendid gem iu the diadem of sovers
eignty. The key note to the best
society is education, whereby all the
avenues to advancement are open to
all men. Books are our household
gods. They make invisible thoughts
visible. The great-of the earth bow
down-to the # genius of literature.
And again, he has learned that the
leading principles of the declaration
of independence as. have been voiced
by the fathers of this republic, arid
they are set forth iu the Holy
scriptures,are that all men are created
qual and that, all have a natural
right to liberty and the pun* wit of hap
pine**, aud that human governments
are instituted for the sole purpose of
securing the welfare of the people.
Since the negro has become en
dowed with all of the necessary quali
fication? t>make him an intelligent
citizen that should demand the respect
and confidence of hie whito brother
citizen and find himself further apart
than ever before, 1 agree with Dr.
Cobb that it will be better for the
races to separate, for the education
and religious training of this country
have failed to bring about that peace
and harmony and friendship that
should exist between two brothers of
one common parentage. The separa
tion should be made as early as possi
ble, and the negro be sent back to
the home .of his nativity, and carry
with him a consciousness of the fact
that he has discharged his doty, and
bid adieu to bis white brethren, and
pray that they may be able to meet
again on the sweet bulks of deliver-
ence, where the races will be able to
dwell together in unity, and all earthly
distinctions and human, ambitions
will be blotted out by the hand of the
Supreme Architect of the universe.

Winds Do Math Damage •
The heaviest, raia and 'wind storm
that ba3 visited Thojnasville in years
was eiperieqcril here yesterday. The
rain commenced to fall early ia {he
moroiug and continued all day long,
at times coming dowp in blinding
torrents. There was considerate
wind in if from the Btart, but about
eleven o’clock it commenced to blow
harder and by one it was ^blowing a
perfect gale. It was almost impossi
ble to walk .the streets, and' many
who. tried it now mourn the Iose cf an
umbrella,. which was -either snatched
from the hand or torn to puces by.
the fierce winds. The wind kept up
its force until about five o'clock oc
casionally coming in gusts that.would
make the windows rattle and shake
the strongest houses. The damage
done by the storm is hard to estimate
at this writing; though it must
amount to many thousands dollars.
Many trees all over the city were up
rooted and the streets in places ren
dered almost impassible by limbs and
other debris that were broken ’ off by
the wind. Several houses were also
blown down and many fences wi l
have to be rebuilt. The streets
suffered greatly, they being badly
washed in places, and bridges washed
away. The sewer at the Fletcher
street crossing of the railroad was to
tally inadequate to the demands made
upon it by the fl )od, and water was
backed up on the south side of the
railroad to a depth of six feet or more
and'covering an area of more thau
ere. The yard of I’etcr Manago,
whose house- is some distance from
the crossing, war, completely sub

being as bight as tho top jailing of tho

The Race Problem
We published a communication yes
terday by Elder W. B. Wilson on the
race problem. The facts do not bear
ont his assertion that the races are
“growing tariher apart every day.”
The contrary is true. The relations
between the two races have, improved,
year by year since emancipation.
There is nothing in the present or pros
pective relations between the races to
justify (he assertion that “something
terrible may happen.” The colored
race is here and here to stay. They
are better off here than they would be
at the North or in Africa. The gieat
bulk of the race would. resist beiog
sent back to Africa.
