NEGRO FESTIVAL
DF IB ENOS
Plantation Melodies and Classic
Numbers Please Big Audi
ence at Auditorium.
The third music festival of the At
lanta Colored Musical festival associa
tion came to a close with a flourish last
■ night at the Auditorium. The music
rendered had a two-fold appeal because
of its racial signifi' ance and artistic ex
cellence.
Anita Patti Brown and Harry T.
Burleigh, soprano and baritone, were
the decided hits of the evening, togeth
er with the Fisk Jubilee singers.
The Jubilee singers have never failed
to please Atlanta in their rendering of
the peculiar eham-lik' melody, which
is native to the negro. The well-known
selection. "Swing Low Sweet Chariot.”
sung first on a plantation and then be
fore the audiences of the world, was
their piece de resistance last night.
In addition to this there wore others,
such t<s "Little Wheel Runs by Faith:
Pig Wheel Runs by the Grace of God."
;md "Somebody's Knocking at the
I >oor."
Burleigh introduced a comedy selec
tion which set his audience roaring. It
was called "A Negro Sermon," and rep
resented the exhortation of a back
woods negro preacher. Th< peculiar In
tonation of this class of exhorter was
never more faithfully represented
Another selection which met with
abundant applause was "Jean"—the
music being of his own composition and
the verse by Frank L. Stanton, of At
lanta.
Anita Patti Brown, the prima donna
of the evening, went the musical gamut.
Hi t' voice took oetavial ascents and her
selections tanged from primitive negro
melodies to different classics. She gave
the Bell Song." from Lakmc. and "Caro
Nome,' from Rigoletto, and surprised
even those of her own rave who hud
heard her before.
But the the negro auditors
at the conclusion of the program ex
pressed themselves ns being highly
pleased.

asked I
him lo have treatment of so
Brown slight a ease. I explained to
56 AlV le ‘ ta street, him that there was uo such
thing as it mild case of this
(lisease; that while one patient might lie a mass of sores, and
from his point of view, in a serious condition, yet from my ex
perience I eoitld promise that it would readily respond to treat
ment, and could easily he controlled, while another patient
might have seen 110 signs of the disease scarcely, and very slight
lesion might come on a valve of the heart and ruin the patient’s
health lorever. This gentleman laughed and said: “Well, so
long ;ts this is no worse, no doctor will fill me up with dope. ’
I'our months later he walked in my office, one side almost totallv
paralyzed, and while I could promise him an ultimate cure, yet
it would be a long time before he would be himself again. He is
today in good condition, but it will be months yet before he is in
perfect health.
Again, a man will often say he is in perfect health, eats and
sleeps well, and has a robust appearance, but some little Hashes
ot pain, or slight disturbances of certain functions warn him of
the beginning of trouble, but he pays no heed until too late.
The little things, the mild symptonls, are often warnings of
the (iominene-mient of the most serious affections, and if taken
in time may often be most easily cured.
To those of us who have to deal with those subtle and often
intractable eases of chronic diseases, how often, too. do we find
that the ravages of organic disease will often go on for months
with scarcely a symptom, and the first symptoms will be exceed
ingly serious ones This is especially true of kidney and nervous
diseases To illustrate: Some twenty years ago a friend said to
mt* one day :“ Doctor 1 have had a couple of attacks of dizziness.
think my liver is out of order. What shall I take for my liver?"
I told him 1 did not care to advise him without analyzing his
urine. He thought this very unnecessary, but at last gave me a
sample, and I found serious Bright's disease.
Serious organic nervous affections are exceedingly liable to
have slight symptoms, often variable and at intermittent pe
riods. and if left io go on. or if treated for symptoms as they
arise, inevitably terminate in exceedingly serious troubles often
difficult to control, and yet. when taken in time, easily controll
ed and amenable to treatment.

IRIVEHS FORESEES
NORTH SIDE BOOM
Atlanta will build to Buckhead
within five years.” was the pre
diction made by E. Rivets of the Rivers
Realty Company today in a discussion
of realty conditions in Atlanta. "Fur
thermore. the insistent demand for
north side property at the present
I time Indicates clearly that next year's
real estate sales will take on the pro
portions of a boom—will be by long
odds the biggest year in the history of
the state."
Mr. Rivers said nothing but a cold,
careful survey of figures could show
properly with wha* tremendous strides
Atlanta was growing; that the people
living in . Atlanta could not properly
'appreciate it.
"No one properly appreciates ft," he
said. "I have tried to, but every time
I look at the situation carefully I see
that it looms larger than I could have
dreameu.
"A few years ago property out on
the populous sections of Peachtree road
was veiling by tpe lot. Now It sells by
the- front foot. Within the next two
years the same thing will happen Ui
pioperty now selling by the lot.
"I really think that the best vision of
Atlanta real estate is held by Eastern
and foreign Investors. They are com
ing in here now in little groups and
they never leave without making quiet
purchases.
"I honestly look for an average ad
vance of 100 per cent in every strip of
north sid«- pioperty within the. next
two years."
Flying Men Fall
victims to stomach, liver and kidney
troubles just like other people, with
like results in loss of appetite, back
ache, nervousness, headache, and tired,
listless, run down feeling. But there’s
no need to feel like that, as T. D. Pee
bles. Henry, Tenn., proved. “Six bot
tles of Electric Bitters,” he writes, "did
more to give me new strength and good
appetite than all other stomach reme
dies I used." So they help everybody.
It'S folly to suffer when this great
remedy will help you from the first
dose. Try it. Only 50 cents at all
druggists.

CLARKSBURG. W. VA., Aug 17.
Because they wanted him -o join the
union, Joseph Dovonna. a bartender, at
tacked James Devine and Michael Glan
cy today, killing both with a butcher
knife.
Dovonna escaped, but a posse com
posed of every police officer anil deputy I
sheriff In town left in pursuit. Feeling ,
runs high and friends of the dead men ;
threatened to lynch Dovonna when he i
was found
Devine and Glancy tried to defend]
themselves against the attack of Do- I
VMnna but were without weapons. Both
were bartenders.
A Silent, Faithful Partner
If you had an opportunity to secure a
partner in your Labors or business who would
work for you every day in the year, and agree
to give you ail his earnings, would you not ac
cept that partner at once? Certainly you would
And yet you have lost many opportunities of
having such partners.
A our spare dollars invested in our Sav
ings Department would be just such partners.
