A ITTY GARDEN.

Wkkkly, “ ... in
Ailin'* Oouititattoa-
Thousands of our city men look
forward longingly to the time when
they will have the means and leis
ure to cultivate a few acres, a place
just big enough, they say, to pro
duce all the vegetables and fruit
that a small family can i onsumc.
They all have an idea that they
must get out of town, and they all
talk about acres. This is just where |
they make a mistake. Nearly
every cottage in Atlanta has ground
enough attached th it to supply a
small family with almost every
thing that is absolutely needed in
the trutt and vegetable line.
The other day two of the Consti
tution staff visited the pretty cot
tage of Mr. R. J. Wiles, at 133
West Baker street. Mr. Wiles has
a lot of fifty feet front, running
back one hundred and fifty feet.
Back ot his residence the space
under cultivation is about seventy-
five by fifty feet.
"Just big enough for a child's
garden,” you will say.
Wait and see. Five years ago
this lot lay squarely on top of an
old red hill. The clay was appa
rently as hard as a pressed river
brick. Mr. Wiles decided to devote
an odd hour morning and evening
to raising fruit and vegetables lor
his own us«. 'litis excited some
amusement.
"You will never succeed in rais
ing anything but a disturbance on
that old hill,” predicted a friend.
The first thing Mr.Wiles did was
to cover the land with layers of
salt, ashes and lime. Then there
was an uproar. Everybody kniw
that the siim productive chances
lurking in the red clay were utterly
ruined by this heroic treatment.
Not knowing, or not bolieving any
thing of the sort, the innocent ex
perimenter went ahead. He worked
the little toy garden and fertilized
it, not lavishly, hut judiciously,
and under his hands the spot grad
ually grew into a thing of beauty
with the promise of being a joy
forever.
Tho soft shadows of a summer
evening were falling over the land
scape, as the two Constitution men
viewed with pleased surprise the
scene before them.
“There are nineteen varieties ol
grapes here,” said Mr. Wiles, lead
ing the way.
The vines were trained on ar
bor* fully twelve feet high, and a
stepladder bad to he utilized. The
vine* were heavily fruited, and the
large bunolics of luscious grapes
presented a richly colored picture,
banging wedged together as though
they had been [wicked there. The
visitors sampled them liberally and
found them superb. Attention was
next directed to the tomatoes.
These were trained like the grapes
on high arbors, with the rows olose
together. When the first frosts
come the arbors are cevercd with
bagging. After that the Indian
summer enable* -bem to thrive for
some weeks. Then the vines are
pulled up and hung in the cellar,
furnisltin^j-ipe and sound tomatoes
as late as January. In the cellar,
also, the grapes are stowed in the
(all. They keep in good condition
until along in Deeemtwr.
Every inch of space in this little
inclosure is used, as a matter of
course Twenty different product*
are raised here, and the egg plants,
okrs, beans, horse radish, and in
fact everything, flourish In excep
tional perfection. The back and
the side fences are made to serve
for the beans. Ids .ear corner ol
the lot stands a henne.y, a neat
building with a little yard of its
own. Here there are 140 hens and
chickens, as pretty a collection of
White Cochins and Plymouth
Kecks as any one could deal re to
*ec. Carbolio acid is used in white
washing the place, and hence there
is no insects.
The cellar to the cottage is about
three feet deep with window sashes
all around between the ground and
the house, thus letting in plenty of
light. It ia airy, dry and perfectly
' cool. Here as elsewhere space ie
economized, and the walla are lined
with preserves, canned fruits and
vegetables, and wines left over
from last year.
"All this takes no time (torn my
business,” said Mr. Wiles. “It Is
a pleasant recreation to work out
here before breakfast and after 1
come home in the evening. We
prednoe all tha frail, vegetables,
eggs and chickens that we can use,
and are able to send some of the
the lesson taught by Mr. Wiles’
experiment. A msn can read it as
he runs. It speaks for itself.

“I never will forget the scene
which I witnessed after the surren
der of Lee to Grant at Appomat
tox,” said Maj (Juincy, the ex-Con-
federate. “That morning Lee sent
word that we were to retire from
the road to the Appomattox court
bouse and leave it clear. None of
us knew what the order meant, but
even if we had known it would have
been cheerfully obeyed. The troops
withdrew among the timber to the
right and left af the highway, where
our commissary stores bad been
packed on the previous nigbk In a
little while Leu rode by to the rear
accompanied alone by Col. Maratial,
Ins aide. It was with the greatest
difficulty that the men were kept
from rushing out and surrounding
the General, so much was he loved.
Later on we heard the sound ol
returning hoots. Wc crept forward
to the edge of the road and saw
I.ec returning. His face was very
sad. When he was opposite to us
the soldiers could no longer re
strain themselves and they rushed
out in a wild mob around his hid
iron gray horse, shouting “Lee!
Lee I Lee! All discipline was
tlirowu to the winds, and the men
seemed to leel that the end was
near, for I never saw such a loyal
and yet disorderly rush. Lee was
calm and seemed to be profoundly
moved. When be dismounted lie
made a motion for silence, and a
ring was formed around him. Then
he stretched out his hand to us and
said;
“‘Gentlemen, I have done the
best 1 could for you. To-day I
have surrendered the army el
Northern Virginia. Boys, go home.
God bless you!’
“I saw strong men throw them
selves upon tho ground at hi* teet
and weep like women. The shouts
and cries of my comrades were'
heart stirring. Leo looked upon
the scene for a moment, sighed,and
turned away. It was all over.”

CllARLV.STON, 8. C., August 25.—
Charleston was struck by a cyclone
this morning and one fourth of the
houses in the city are unroofed.
Parts of the spires of 8t. Michael's
and 8t. Martha’s churches were
blown down, and the spire of the
Citadel Square Baptist church de
molished. Wharves and ware
houses arc badly damaged. At
Sullivan’s Island two steamers are
aground and the New Ashley river
bridge, now constructing, ia swept
away. Four vessels which arrived
yesterday arc wrecked. The tele
graph wires are down and there
are no cars running. The loss ia
estimated at |l ,000,000. The work
of restoration and reparation has
already begrn.
The head of one of the largeat
Yot
retail establishments In New York
gave a new idea of aome of tlA
close buying lhat la dona there by
r eople who have plenty ol money.
Ie said: “A great many customers
buy winter goods of na in the
spring and summer goods in the
fall. They get thus the benefit of
clearing off sales, which now ex
tend even to standard lines of
goods. No one carries over from
one season to another so much as
a s[)ool of thread that can be sold
at cost. The shrewd buyer* have
discovered this and buy their flan
nels in March, and their linens in
8eptember, and lay them away un
til needed lor the season."
