Towns that are not organized must not stand back on that account, as the invita- tion is to each of the business men in the ptate. The railroads have granted the one and one-third rate to all business men attend- ng this convention—this will be on the ce ificato plan. When you purchase your ticket ach delegato must take a receipt at the time e purchased his ticket, and by presenting samo to R. K.

The Story of Inez de Castro, Wife of a | King of Portugal. - There is no more remarkable page in all history, the St. Louis Republi than the one which tells of the erowning of Inez de Castro’s fleshless skull as queen of Portugal., She had been mar- ried clandestincly to young Don Pedro, s murderéd three years later by ns instigated by her father-in- When the young don heard of her s beside himself with of o, 0of the assassins fell into his hands and suffered terrible torture; which only ended by their hearts being torn out while they were yet alive. ‘When Pedro came to the throne a few years later he had the bones of Inez taken from the grave, placed upon a magnificent throne, robed in royal pur- ple, and actually crowned queen of Portu- gal. The court was summoned and com- pelied to do her homage, just as if she were a real living queen. — One fleshless hand held the scepter and the other the orb of royalty. On the second night of mony the fleshless queen was borne before a grand funeral cor- tege extending several miles, each per- son holding a torch. Lying in her rich robes, her erown upon her grinning seull, in a chariot dvawn by tw I black mules, Queen Tnez, the only queen who never knew her royal std was driven to the royal abl of Alcobaea, where the bones were interred with as much pomp as though she had died but yesterday. The monument erected to the queen, who was never a queen dur- ing life, is still to be seen in the abbey, standing near the one erected to her loyal husband, *Pedro the Just.” To Take Effect Sunday, May 11, 1800, The great ‘Erie railway’ have placed in service three splendid Pulman trains, the fast ‘limited’ express by the Chicago & Grand Trunk railway via Niagara Falls, leaving Chicago at 10:30 a. m., arviving in New York at 5:15 p. m. the next day, having a splendid view of the falls in the morning.

How the Great Southern Problem is Rapidly Solving Itself. OAPITAL IS FAST POURING IN. Abundant Resources Which Are Being Rapidly Developed—The Past For- gotten and Tarned Toward the Future. Wasnivaroy, May 8.—[Special to Tns Bee.]—Georgia seeured an invasion from the Washington newspaper correspondents last week and scored a good point in both busi- ness and politics. Heretofore “Dixie” has been classed in political annals with Missis- sippi, South Carolina aud two or three shot- gun states managed by brigadiers bent on ante-bellum plunder; but it will now be known the country over that Georgia has been done an injust Georgia is (as rapidly developing from the caterpillar into the butterfly as it is possiblo and promises to become, within the next de- cade, one of the foremost manufacturing states in the union. She has as vich mineral and coal lands, forests and phosphate beds as there are in the world, and work in theso yicld as handsome profit and pleasure a: business in the universe. Capital is floodin, into the state from the north, Europe and elsewhere and as sure s business will solve other perplexities politics is being cast side for something bette here is no bet- terillustration than can be found at Augusta, whither the correspondents went last wee that nmercial interests overwhelm politic and solve race and other problems. A people busy making money and happiness; a people devoted to the upbuilding of a country for the future, and not living in the prejudice of the past or the passion of the present, do two things, bring about two conditions, no matter what the sentiment may be at the time; th {;) ke tarift protectionists and level all social arriers, At Augusta the conditions a decade and at present were and are almost® identical to those at Richmond, Va. Ten years ago the people at Richmond lived in the past; they were free traders. Now they live in the future and the present, and a protective tariff forms an issue which rises almost toand which will g0 above party lines. Factovies have taken the place of militia_ grounds, and com- mercial clubs oceupy the attention of those who spent their midnight hours in political caucus but a short time ago. Instead of dis- cussing low to carry an_election at Augusta 10w the business mien together, without respect to polities, and conjure plans for aring capital with which to develop the city. Politics is losing caste. Professional politicians are not business men. No clearer idea of how well the sword ean be turned into a pruning knife can_be found than in Augusta. It will be remembered that quite all of the powder for the Confederacy was manufactured in that city during at least three years of the war. A large factory was built at one side of the city and an im- mense chimney erected to carty the smol heat and sparks far above the powder mags zine After the war a short time the citi; got together and prepared a tablet which was placed upon this landmark of the “recent dis turbance.” The ground around the powder factory was_for years held seclusion.

The estab- lishment of these immense cotton cloth fac- tories brought othe till for almost a mile along the hydraulic the scenc reminds one of the busiest point on Fall river. The: ro in handsome four-s and the operatives have boautiful restdences, the whole being a scene of rift and contentment, fraught with stabil- 1d happine: s true that in the streets of Augusta there are monuments to confedorate herocs, but these were erected at period whentho memories of the wur were fresh in the minds of the people and tender thoughts coursed the minds of all the south, aud when tears with flowers were being'strewn upon the guaves of the dead braves in the north. There is no_flourish of ante-bellum sentiment, no reference to “‘befoh th’ wah.” The people live in the fu- ture, not the past. While there I met Col- onel Howell, one of the editors of the Atlanta Constitution. Heehad just returned from Charleston, S, C., and he said_this of that, ancient city which fired the first shot at Sumter: “The trouble with Charleston is, and T toid them there, the people aro living too much in the past. We must forget the past and turn our faces and minds to the future.” The race problem in Augusta—and as that s a representative a city it is an index of the stato—is solving itself. The negro is treated kindly, and as a consequence he votes with his_employer very frequentiy when he votes at all. - Au'influential citizen ” gave me the kernel to the race nut when he said this, which I had duplicated by many other citi- zens: It isn’t necessary to count out or bulldoze negroes at the elections. Right hero we be lieve thut by treating the colored men kindly vill cither stay away from the polls, beé- cause they do not want to vote agninst us, or they will vote the way their bosses wint thein to vote, Itis not the negro but the tariff fou that is dividing the predom- inant p Our principal newspapers and ding business men are for a protective The McKinley bill pleases a great many of the people here. Wo know that to prosper we must have fuctories, and these will not come hiere unless there is'a_protec- tive tariff. You strike a man's business in- terests and party lines und prejudices disap. pe Undoubtedly Augusta with her wood, min- eral, agricultural and_ othex resources will go up from a city of 50,000 people now to a place of 100,000 less than ten years. The veal estato excitement has not yet struck the city yet, although a number of capitalists are just arrlving for that purpose. The city is beau- tifully located, with the Savannah river, nav igablo down to Savannah on the coast,’ run- ning through the corporate limits, The coun- try is undulating to a handsome degre being rising hills in every direction, ki most charming suburly 0s. hundreds of the pretie 1 sions, with their broad oaks and elms dotting capacious grounds.
