New York, June 18.—One of the
Iatestest arrivals to register his
nsme at the Fifth Avenue Hotel on
Monday waa Colonel Archer Ander
son. Ha came to New York to And
himself famous. Long known as a
man of culture and refluement by
his immediate friends, a certain re
serve has kept Colonel Anderson
hack from making any pnblle work.
He has principally been known at
the Southern Society at the aon of
Gen. Joseph Anderson, President
of the Tredegar Iron Works. He
served through the dark and dolor
ous day, of the war, and attheolose
be was Adjutant-General of the
army of Tennessee. He married a
daughter of John S. Mason, who
represented the United States as
minister to France. By visitors of
distinction to Richmond be Is cher
ished as a host of fine quality. It
was at his house that the daughters
of Qep. Lee stopped during the
celebration. In appearance Colonel
Anderson looks like an embodied
will. His features are rather square
cut and stern, but his eyes are gen
tle nud u kindly smile softens the
firmness of his lips. One feels, on
meetlDg him, that this man should
have developed his opportunity
earlier. As It Is—since the delivery
of his masterly oration a great many
people have become acquainted
with his name who had not the re
motest idea who he was before the
unveiling. There are many people
in ti e United States who do not
care a rap ubouft the progress of any
other section of the couutrv than
the oue where they live,
have no idea who the leaders of
public opinion are. Ittakesagreat
day like the 30th and the general
newspaper comment whiob attends
it, to fix the names of leadlug men
well In the public mind.
A leadlug member of tbe South
ern Society remarked yesterday
that in this sudden notoriety as au
orator attained by Colonel Auder-
sou, people seem to lose sight of tbe
fact that he is a power iu this coun
try. Tbe speaker said: "I do not
for an fustaut mean to run down
the good old city of Richmond, but
what I do say is that a man like
him we are talking of would have
found far greater opportunities in
cities like New Orleans, Charleston
or Memphis, to say nothiug of New
York. Geueral Joseph Anderson
his father, has one of tbe keenest
financial heads In America. He
haa made the Tredegar Iron Works
what they are, bringing them up to
tbe point when 14 per cent, more is
offered for shares In the company
than they would have fetched no
more than four years ago. Under
Colonel Anderson, with unchanged
conditions, the same growth is ob-»
served.
The prospective bridegroom of
Miss “Lena" Caldwell of Baltimore
arrived from Europe on Wednes-
day. He is the Baron Von Zed wltz.
Imperial German Minister to Mex.
Ico, a tall, well built typical Ger
man, who met Miss Caldwell, one
of the richest heiresses of the South
—and indeed of America—at Wash
ington some years ago while be was
Seoretary of Legation. The Baron,
with the Misses Caldwell and their
aunt, will leave for Washington on
Saturday, and tbe couple will be
married at the capttol next week by
Cardinal Gibbons.
Theirs Is a real love match, and
Incidentally a romance of a sadder
ending is bound up with It. Baron
Von Zedwitz was Introduced to Miss
Lena Caldwell by a young lawyer, a
Washington man, who was enamor
ed of her sister, Miss Gwendolyn
Caldwell. It Is ssld that they were
engaged to be married, but Miss
Gwendolyn met Prince Murat and
broke her engagement to contract a
new one with him. It is also said
that, the Murat engagement being
off, the lawyer who Is still In Wash
ington, is trying to renew his old
relations with Miss Caldwell. It
was this Miss Caldwell, by tho way,
who made the Catholic University
the magnificent gift of $800,000. Be
tween the two sisters there Is a vast
difference of temperament, but they
are closest friends. Miss Lena
Caldwell, as rich In her own right
as her elder sister, is very simple
in her tastes. The tronsseau which
she procured in Europe made'no
stir, while that of Miss Gwendolyn
excited comment even among the
most lavish dispersers of argent In
Paris.
sixteenth jest, add he Is really v
product of the'West. He is now the
Democratic Governor of Montana.
Four years ago he visited New York
for tbe first tlme.fnd crested a tiny
sensation on Broadway by bis cos
turns, wbleh smelt of the plains
He then wore sraorabrero as wide
as they make them; he had his
trousers tucked Into bis boots and
hie long black hair floated down
about bis shoulders. It would be
impossible to ^Istlflgulsb blm now
from a thousand other well and
quietly dressed men in New York.
His political career has. been very
rapid. He served In tbe Forty
nlntn Congress as a territorial dele
gate. until Montana was admitted
as a State, then he received the
Democratic nomination for gover
nor and was the only man on tbe
ticket to obtain election. His am-
abltton, which there Is no reason to
doubt #111 be gratified, Is to fill the
first Senatorial vacaooy from Mon
tana. It most be pleasant for tbe
relatives s'lll In Georgia, as well as
for tbe friends of the family, who
are scattered all over the South, to
watch tbe progress of this gifted
young man.
A aon of the South, but one who
was early withdrawn from her re
fining influences, Joseph K. Toole,
the scion of the famous Toole fami
ly of Western Georgia, was In town
this week with his bride, the daugh
ter of General Rosecran. Mr. Tool e
was taken by his uncle to Mon
tana before he had completed his
On June lBtb. tbe occasion of tbe
75th performance of "Money Mad’
at tbe Standard Theatre, a young
Southern writer will receive an ex
ceptional honor. f This Is Miss
Fannie Edgar Thomas, born iu the
South, but reared In Peori, III., and
a story by her entitled “Tbe Turned
Bridge,” will be distributed among
the audience as a souvenir. This
little story was written fo t ur years
ago in Chicago and illustrated by
crayon sketches by Miss Thomas
nerself, then a bookkeeper at a
small compensation. She knew
nothing of the ways of bookmaking
and had the printer of tbe bill-beads
of the office brl-gout tbe addition
at her own expense. It sold very
rapidly and was spoken of favorably
by the Chicago Journals. Thus it
came to the sight of manager J, M.
Hill, who has not forgotten It. and
as in both the play “Money Med,”
and In the story, tbe Clark Street
Bridge, is the center of interest.
He bas determined to publish
handsome edition and distribute It
as a souvenir.

Georgia’s wonderful resources are
continually being brought to light
It is now said that Prof. W. G.
Woodfiu is doing some great work
In developing the mioeral resources
of Fraukliu county. He has dis
covered valuable mines of gold, iron
and other minerals, and also a coal
mine, that has been aualyzed and
found to be of a superior quality.
This is the first de|iosit of gold ever
found iu this section of the State.
The iron Is of so pure and fine a
quality that you oau hammer
horse-shoe nail from it. There are
said to bo inexhaustible quantities
of both cost and iron. Nearly
every stream is paved with parti
cles of gold, and tbe particles are
free and easily worked. Prof.
Woodfin represents a syndicate of
Northern capitalists, and Is taking
options on all this mineral property
at a handsome price.
T. Thomas Fortune,the prominent
negro journalist and agitator, went
Into a saloon In New York, last
week, to get a glass of beer, which
was refused him on the ground
that he Is a colored man. He in
sisted upon his rights, and was
turned over to a policeman, who
took him to the station house where
he was looked up. The New York
correspondent of the Philadelphia
Ledger says: "Without Intending
to comment on tbe merits of this
individual case, It may be said that
It Is next to impossible for colored
people, however educated or well-
dressed, to secure accommodation
or attendance In many of the hotels
and restaurants of New York.”
Gen. Phil Cook, who has been
bolding the portfolio of Seoretary
of State for the past several months,
is a candidate for eleotlon to that
position. Tho Times knows of no
truer Georgian or more loyal Demo
crat than this gentleman. No mat
ter where tried, General Cook has
proven faithful and true to hls peo
ple. Upon the field of battle or In
tbe halls of legislation, no braver
soldier ever fought or more Incor
ruptible servant ever labored.
Georgia could licit place a better son
In the office of Secretary of Stato
than Phil Cook, and be should be
