NEGRO FESTIVAL
OF MUSIC ENDS
Plantation Melodies and Classic
Numbers Please Big Audi
ence at Auditorium.
The third music festival of the At
lanta Colored Musical Festival associa
ion came to a close with a flourish last
night at the Auditorium, The music
rendered had a two-fold appeal because
of its racial signift< ant e 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 chant-like 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 were others,
such as "Little Wheel Kuns by Faith:
Big Wheel Runs by the Grace of God,"
and "Somebody's Knocking at the
Door."
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. The peculiar in
tonation of this class of exhortcr 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 prlrna donna
of the evening, went the musical gamut.
Her voice took octavlal ascents and her
selections ranged from primitive negro
melodies to different classics. She gave
the "Bell Song,” from Lakme. and "Caro
Nome," from Rigoletto, and surprised
even those of her own race who had
heard her before.
But the white and the negro auditors
at the conclusion of the program ex
pressed themselves as being highly
pleased.

RIVERSIDE CADETS
ARE HAVING OUTING
IN CAMP NEAR SEA
NttRFOLK, VA., Aug. 17.—Seventy-
I I five young men and boys, of the cadel
I i battalion of Riverside Military acad
emy, Gainesville, Ga.. are encamped at
I the Fnited States government reserva
, tion between Ocean View and Wil
’ ioughby Spit, where thej will remain
for another week.
Situated in a grove of lofty pines,
from which all underbrush has been
removed, the tents are pitched on a
slight eminence, where the breezes
sweep through, and there is ample
shade and an abundance of water. No
more pleasant location for a camp
could be found anywhere in this sec
tion.
The camp is within 100 yards of
Chesapeake bay, and the boys, many
of whom are expert swimmers, as this
is a part of the college curriculum,
spend just as much time as they possi
bly can in or on Mhe water, bathing,
boating and fishing.
In addition to the routine of camp
• life and the incidental pleasures of the
seaside, the cadets will during the week
give dres. parades and battalion drills
on the lawn in the rear of the Ocean
View hotel. Dr. McCoy and 30 cadets
will leave Norfolk via steamer for
Washington. D. (', for a stay of several
days’ sight-seeing.
In addition to Dr. McCoy and Major
Nickles, the following other members
of the faculty of Riverside academy
are with the cadets in camp: Captains
H C. McGregor, .1 T. Machat. C. M
McClure, J. B. Perkins, H. J Pearce
Jr., and F. L. McCoy, Jr.
Riverside Military academy was es
tablished in 1907, the public spirited
citizens of Gainesville raising a large
fund for the purpose. Its first session
began in September, 1908.
Although the youngest preparatory
school In the South for boys the acad
emy has the distinction of being a
member of the Association of Schools
and Colleges of the Southern States
with over SBO,OOO in buildings and
equipment, and with a military organ
ization second to none in the South
Besides the military feature, the acad
emy maintains a summer school and
camp on Lake Warner, near Gaines
ville, where the cadets are Instructed
In aquatic sports and pastimes, ns well
as the elements of naval life.

Atlanta, Ga. ~ - ~ , „ , .
tiling as a mild of this
disease; 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 could promise that it would readily respond to treat
ment. and could easily be controlled, while another patient
might have seen no signs ol the disease scarcely, and very slight
lesion might come on a valve of the heart and ruin the patient’s
health forever. This gentleman laughed and said: “Well, so
long as this is no worse, no doctor will till me up with dope. ’
hour months later he walked in my office, one side almost totally
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 100 late.
The little things, the mild symptoms, are often warnings Vs
the commencement of the most serious affections, and if taken
in time, may often be most easily etired.
I’o those of us who have to deal with those subtle and often
intractable cases ot chronic diseases, how often, too. do we find
that the ravages of organicMisease will often go on for months
with scarcely a symptom, and the first symptoms will he exceed
j ingly serious ones. This is especially true of kidney and nervous
diseases To illustrate: Some twenty years ago a friend said to
me one day :“ Doctor I 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 I did not care to advise him without analyzing his
urine. lie 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 to 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 control!-
, ed and amenable to treatment.

RIVERS FORESEES
NORTH SIDE BOOM
“Atlanta will build to Buckhead
within five years," was the pre
diction made by E. Rivers of the Rivers
Realty Company today in a discussion
us realty conditions in Atlanta "Fur
thermore, the insistent demand for
north side property at the present
I lime 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 it," 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
dreameo.
"A few years ago property out on
the populous sections of Peachtree road
was selling by the lot. Now it sells by
the front foot. Within the next two
years the same thing will happen to
property 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 md
they never leave without making quiet
purchases.
"I honestly look for an average ad
vance of 100 per cent in every strip of
north side property 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. **•
BARTENDER SLAYS
TWO RATHER THAN
JOIN LABOR UNION
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, byt a posse com
posed of every police officer and deputy ■'
sheriff in town left in pursuit. Feeling '
runs high and friends of the dead men
threatened to lynch Dovonna when he:
was found. '
Devine and Glancy tried to defend I
themselves against the attack of Do- |
vonna 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 foi- you every day in the year, and agree
to give you all 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.
Your spare dollars invested in our Sav
ings Department would be just such partners. •
