Coughing Is one of the nuisances that
no one has been able to abolish iu
churches or in theaters. A physician,
however, claims that the coughing nui
sance Is a mere question of acoustics.

tween the ear and the throat," he said.

Mr. Fickstoue, an Englishman
from Gapetown, South Africa, is
visiting the Southern States and
has been interviewed in Atlanta
in regard to his mission to this
section to study the negro question
and the relations of the two races.
He states that the white people of
South Africa are much disturbed
there, and
that he is in the South to find out
how it is that the two races have
got along so well and so prosper
onsly.
From what he has already learn
ed and observed of American ne
groes, Mr. Fickstoue is convinced,
he says, that there is no material
ditVerence between them and the
barbarous natives of South Africa.
Having lived as a farmer for fif
teen years in Cape Colony, he
should be well informed, but he
doubtless means that our negroes
have the same instincts rather than
that they, as a whole, occupy the
same low level of civilization as
the Kaffirs. He would surely ad
mit that the industrial school of j
American slavery lifted the Afri- i

From what we have read of the

that the condition of Southern ne
