THE EVENING CAPITOL: ATLANTA. GA, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 9, 1886
AN ANCIENT COBBLER.
AWONDERFVLOLD NEGRO LIVING
IN ATLANTA.
He Relates the Story of His Life to a
Capitol Reporter—A Relic of
Another Century.
“There is a wonderful old hegro living in At
lanta,” said Patrolman Baker at the change of
watch yesterday, a time when officers relate in
cidents which come under their notice and
which have nothing to do with their official
work.
The Capitol’s police reporter was present
and made a dive for the item like a canvass
back duck does after a summer June bug.
“ Tell us about your old man,” said the re
porter to Patrolman Baker.
But just then the Captain sounded the alarm
for roll call, and all he obtained was the old ne
gro’s address—l7s Chapel street. This is
a cobbleb’s SHOP,
and when the reporter reached the place this
morning he found a little old colored man, wrin
kled and withered with hair as white as cotton,
pegging away at a pair of way-worn travellers.
With the sprightliness of a young person he
sprang up to welcome his visitor. The reporter’s
errand was made known and the little old man
told his story:
His name is George Terry and he was born
in the year 1788, which makes him one hundred
and two years of age. His birthplace was in
Starch county, N. C. When only fourteen years
of age, he was apprenticed to the shoe trade, and
for eighty-eight years he has cut uppers and
pegged shoe soles. Even during the war he
never ceased to follow his trade, and since the
war has
MADE A GOOD LIVING
at It. The old man speaks in the warm
est terms of his “ old marster,” and his eyes
frequently filled with tears when he was telling
reminiscenses that extended far back into the
past, reaching into another century.
In all his life the old man has never
used tobacco in any form, and does not
remember having ever taken a drink of anv
kind of intoxicating liquors. He has never
used an oath, or if he did, it has been so long
ago as to have escaped his memory. His eye
sight is perfectly good, and he has never worn
spectacles. Two even rows of white, solid
teeth are visible when he talks.
For seventy-five years he has not felt a single
touch of the pains and aches and maladies to
which humanity is heir, and
NOT A DROP OF MEDICINE
has passed his lips. The last time he remem
bers being sick was an attack of measles he
had when about twenty-five years of age. Now,
with the snows of one hundred and two years
to dry up the fountains of life, he is hale
and hearty, sleeps well, eats well and is happy!
Time, that has dealt so lightly with bis physi
cal frame, has left unscathed the retentive
powers of his mind, and he
remembers events that happened
a century ago as distinctly as one can recall
the occurrences of last month.
In his possession are a number of mementoes,
which old “Uncle George” guards sacredly in a
musty chest, and to each of which is attached a
fragment of the history of a long earthly life.
This is perhaps the most wonderful citizen
living in Atlanta—a relic of another century,
forgotten, perhaps, by the Reaper Death.
THE SECOND NIGHT.
Rendition ot Cinderella by Atlanta’s
Children at the Opera-House.
The second night of Cinderella at the Opera
house was well attended, although the threat
ening rain kept a great many away who would
have been glad to have gone had the night been
more promising.
From the time the curtain first went up until
the closing scene the audience was completely
wrapt up in the gay scenes on the stage. The
rendition the second night was probably more
successful than the first, if possible.
When the gas turned down low and scarcely
a light was to be observed in the house the cur
tain went up and to the music of some inspiring
march, a company of 36 little boys, who were
fayly arrayed in fancy uniforms, carry tiny
ittle swords came marching on the stage, with
soldier's steps keeping time to the music. The
most difficult feats of the march were accom
plished with perfect ease and the applause that
that audience gave vent to was a sufficient guar
antee that they knew how to appreciate a mili
tary effort from the small boys.
The second military company of boys were a
little larger, and with more ease and less em
barrassment they accomplished the fours, right
wheel and forward eight, right wheel march.
The third company, which was composed of
the largest boys on the stage, completely cap
tured the audience with their correct and quick
conception and execution of the orders as they
were given by the brave little captain.
The many songs rendered by the charming
little children, show that the voices of the “wee
little Southerners” still retain the musical
gifts that have made their ancestors famous
for their fulness and expression, and the name
which was given ns by a Northern visitor fifty
years ago—“they are all nightingales”—will fit
well the little children who have learned Cin
derrella so perfectly, and the gay little songs
interspersed between acts added' greatly to the
entertainment.
Much credit is due Mrs. Benton and her no
less accomplished sister, Miss Sadie.
Liittle Miss Goldberg won the the applause
last night by her charming and original way of
rendering the songs, which captured the audi
ence. She was encored three times.
Miss Flora Shaw, as Cinderella, is a success
and many others who sustained their parts so
admirably are worthy of mention, but space
forbids.
The citizens of Atlanta should turn out en
masse to-night and witness this most laugha
ble and interesting opeatta, to convince mana
ger that she is worthy the patronage she so
icits.

The Funeral of Mrs. Bowden.
Mrs. Mary Bowden, wife of Mr. Michael A.
Bowden, died yesterday morning at 3 o'clock.
Mrs. Bowden was a lady of many estimable vir
tues, and her death is deeply mourned by many
sorrowing relatives, and friends. She was a
daughter of ex-Ciunciltnan Mahoney, and nut
quite a year ago was led to the marriage altar
a happy bride.
This morning the loved form was consigned
to the grave, and in the coffin her babe was
buried with her.
The funeral services were preached at the
Church of the Immaculate Conception, and from
there to the cemetery a long line of carriages
followed the remains. The Governor’s Horse
Guard, of which Mr. Bowden is a member, at
tended the funeral in a body.
To the bereaved husband and sorrowing rela
tives the sympathy of many friends is extended.
BASE BALL.
The attendance in Memphis on the last day
was above the average. Atlanta defeated the
home team in spite of the rottenness of the um
pire. Purcell kicked against the unjust treat
ment received, and was fined SIOO. The finding
of Purcell by Hengle was a shameful affair.
The Atlantas have been robbed of three games,
and when Manager Purcell, who is one of the
best posted ball men in the country, and an hon
est one, asserts bis rights against such robbery,
he is fined. Tbe cause of jbe whole affair rests
on the shoulders of President Proudfit.
His appointment have been men who don’t know
bow to umpire a game, or they are all dishon
est. They should be removed, and that at
once. Atlanta don’t want such men to come
here. We want the visitors to have a fair game
to win. A gentleman from Nashville, who de
sires honest ball playing, says that Atlanta not
only submitted to robbery, but other breaches
of ettiquette at tbe hands of the Nashville club
on the diamond. In any case, if the umpire
had been disposed to be honest in bis dealings
two of the games would have terminated differ

The Cincinnati Enquirer says that the home
club has bought tbe release of Lyons, the 3d
baseman ofthe Atlantas, paying for him tbe
sum of one thousand dollars. It also says that
Lyons is the best 3d baseman in the country.
The reason that pool selling was stopped in
Atlanta was that the tickets found their way
into the hands of the small boy They could
not bup them but they got men to do it, and
then go to the Opera House andmake a nuisance
of themselves.
