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 (loutish last
niKht fit the Auditorium The music
rendered had a two fold appeal because
of its racial significance and artistic * x
eellence.
Anita Patti Brown and Hart.' T
Burleigh, soprano and baritone, wen
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 Runs by Faith;
Big Wheel Runs by the Grace of God.”
and "Somebody's Knocking at th*
Door.”
Burleigh introduced a comedy selec
tion which set his audience roaring. It
was called "A Negro Sermon,” anil rep
resented the exhortation of a back
woods negro preacher. The 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 prlma donna
of the evening, went the musical gamut.
Her voice took octavial ascents and her
■elections 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.

thmg as a mild caso of 1 his
disease; that while one patient might be 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
menl. ami could easily Ik* controlled, while another patient
might have seen no signs of the disease scarcely, and very slight
lesion might come on a valve of the In-art and ruin the patient’s
health forever This gentleman laughed and said: "Well, so

, Four 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. ll** 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 flashes
of pain, or slight disturbances of certain functions warn him of
the beginning of trouble, hut he pays no heed until too late.
. 'Fhe little things, the mild symptoms, are often warnings of
I the (jommeneenient 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
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 antilyzing his
urine. IL 1 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
i arise, inevitably terminate in exceedingly serious troubles often
difficult to control, and yet. when taken in lime, easily eontroll
; ed ami amenable to treatment.

NORTH SIDE BOOM
"Atlanta will build to Buckhead
i within five years,” was * the pre- ;
diction made by E. Rivers 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
(time indicates clearly that next year's |
' real estate sales will take on the pro- :
1 potions of a boom —will be by ion?!
odds the biggest year in the history of l
the state.”
Mi Rivers said nothing but a cold I
careful survey of figures could show !
1 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
1 said. "I have tried to, but every time
-1 look at the situation carefully I see
, that it looms larger than I could have
, dreamed.
"A few years ago property out on
‘ the populous sections of Peachtree road
was selling by the lot Now ft sells by
th*- front foot. Within the next two
years the same thing will happen Io
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 and
. they never leave without making quiet
purchases.
"I honestly look for an average ail
' vance of 100 per cent in every strip of
north side property within the next
I two years."

prompt and radical treat
ment in order to cure. A cou
ple of years ago an old ac
quaintance stopped me on
the street and said :“ Doctor,
see this little spot on my
face? I was going to get
some ointment for it. What
shall I get .'" I saw at a
glance that it was the com
mencement of a serious dis
ease, and told him he needed
prompt and effective means!
at once, lint he thought
lightly of it. Recently 1 read
of his death, due to the same
trouble, which had been left
unattended to until too late
to be cured
A couple <»f years ago a
young man came in with a
iriend who was being treat
ed. and in the course of the
conversation called atten
tion to the fact that there
was slight evidences of
blood poison in his case, and
asked if I thought it best for
him to have treatment of so
slight a case. I explained to
him that there was no such
