Bottom Story of n Delightful Ride
Through the Yellow Pino Districts.
Glimpses of the Historic City The
New South Its Progress.
Written for The Tiiliune.
ESUMING our journey eastward
from lilrmlnghum, the so-culled
"boom-town," reluctantly, in Ci)
miles we enter the great statu of
Georgia, the land of corn and cotton,
oiunanionsccd and sandy bottom, where
are alto Immense pine forests, extensive
cotton plantations, eurnlli-lils of great
areas, also tobacco patches and marble
and granUe quarries. It is here the
long-leafed yellow plno has room and
time to Brow and stretch out until fifty,
sixty or seventy foot timbers, without
a l:not, are taken from their long
flaunt bodies, while the needles of their
tassels measure twelve to fifteen in
ches and with every breath of wind
from mountain or sea, make some of
nature's sweetest, most plaintive and
grandest of music. Thus we go on to
Atlanta, the heart of the new south,
and its particular pride, about which
so much has been written and of which
the half has not been told. Its recup
eration, its enterprise and growth are
among the marvels of modern civiliza
tion. "All roads lead to Rome," and a good
ly number of our great American rail
ways lead to Atlanta. Kleven lines all
told, converge there, placing the city
in close touch with all the country ly
ing around for a great distance in
every direction. Her trade extends to
the Gulf of Mexico on the south, and
beyond the Potomac and the Ohio on
the north; and from the Atlantic coast
on the east to the Mississippi river and
beyond on the west. This commanding
trade position has been the inspiration
of many a business enterprize. As a
manufacturing centre Atlanta has al
most limitless possibilities. Lying just
beyond the edge of the rich coal and
iron fields of Alabama and with a doz
en different varieties of iron ore iii the
mountains of Georgia, hardly fifty
miles to the north, her possibilities as
an iron manufacturing center can
scarcely be measured. Already she lias
large cotton mills, iron manufacturing
establishments, making agricultural
implements, also woodonware and cot
ton products, which are marketed from
one end of the land to the other. To
cite but one instance, Mexico buys an
nually thousands of Atlanta made
ploughs of the civil war period, and
the part Atlanta played In those stirr
ing times, much has been written bv
historians, For years the city was one
of the most Important strongholds of
the Southern Confederacy. It wan a
rallying point for the enthusiastic vol
unteers. It was a vast depot when the
most valuable munitions of war wire
deposited. It was a center of manufac
turing, n city of hospitals, a collection
of barracks, a shelter for thousands of
refugees in short, It was the backbone
of the Confederacy, in consequence of
her activity in furnishing ultl and her
aggressiveness, she suffered hardships
nnd desolation. The war was carried
into her chief cltudels by General Slier-
T
that was laid waste from Atlanta to
Savannah, farm houses burned, cattle
nnd every conceivably tiling taken,
driven off, or dlstroyed, leaving only a
long straggling chain of homeless
chimneys standing like grim sentinels
to mark tho puth of tho vengeance.
This is what wo beheld at tho close of
the war In 1SG5.
HISTORIC NAMES.
Tho names of Sherman nnd Hooker,
Johnson nnd Hood, uro Indelibly Im
pressed upon the mountains and valleys
of northwestern Georgia. It was Jn tho
eventful year 38(11. on the advance of
Bherman from Chattanooga, (a few
miles over the state lino In Tennessee,)
to Atlanta which held the railway com
munication between tho south Atlantic
mates, was stubbornly, bravely nnd
brilliantly resisted by Johnson and
Hood, but without nvall.
Now the kindly hand of "time" has
healed these ugly scars, throughout
those waste places that have been made
to bloom and blossom like a garden,
tho vino and fig tree have been planted
nnd made to bloom again; ruined
homes have beeu restored to happy
families and countless spindles and
looms with other industries, tell how

oinltable perscryerancu and brave en-

ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO.,
orgy, have defied the very "fates," so
magically and rapidly has th? great
transfotmatlon boon wrought.
Atlanta, the city Itself, was almost
destroyed and nor people were scatter
ed to the four points of the compass.
When General Sherman marched away,
there was left loss than three hundred
houses out of neaily four thousand,
and in the business center, hardly one
stone was left upon the other. liut
upon the conclusion of hostilities, the
true era of Atlanta's greatness was in
augurated, the temporary reverse has
proved a bleeping and the world has
looked on In wonder and amazement at
the development of the so called "Gate
city."
This city, Atlanta, whoso name has
been so indelibly written on the his
torical and commercial pages of the life
of this nation, needs no extended Intro
duction to the leader, but aside from
these exciting and romantic points of
Interest, an account of the rle of At
lanta from her ashes and her social,
educational, political, commercial and
industrial development, should be of
interest to every student of political
economy, every btislnes man, and
patriotic citizen, north or south.
It is not claiming too mucn to say
that Atlanta Is everywhere regarded
as the leading representative city of
the "New South." No place in the
South is more thoroughly Ameilcan. It
Is justly claimed that here, all sections
meet, fraternize, and unite in one har
monious whole. Nowhere In the South
Is there to be found a greater i. gree
of toleration in thought, speech and
conduct. All shades of religion and po
litical opinion exist here and sectional
prejudices are virtually unknown,
while in the days of slavery, Atlanta
was naturally and aggressively identi
fied with the "old South." The idea
that "slavery was right" and that "cot
ton was king," controlled the popular
mind.
The new city, built upon the site of
the old Atlanta, was largely built by
new men, with new ideas, new hopes,
new aims and new ambitions. Honest
difference of opinion were respected,
geographical lines were ignored and
diversified Industries encouraged. Peo
ple from all parts of the Union were
welcomed, and gradually all were fused
together In one solid body, knowing no
north, no south, east or west, and all
pulling together as Atlantians for the
common good, and today Atlanta stands
In the majesty of her own strength, a
typical American city, full of energy,
enterprise and patriotism.
KNTERING THE CITV.
The appearance of the streets of At
lanta is like those of Poston. In the
cosmopolitan character of Its popula
tion and variety of its business Inter
ests, Atlanta is like New York, In the
business activity of Its people, Atlanta
Is like Chicago. A drone In progressive
Atlanta will be run over and a slow,
conservative business man is consid
ered a back number,
Atlanta, the capital of Georgia and
the coming metropolis of the South, lies
at the foot of the Allegheny range of
mountains, on an elevated plateau J.O.'O
feet above the level of the sea a higher
elevation, with one exception (Denver,
Colorado), than that of any other city
of equal population east of the Rocky
mountains, There are several points
within the city limits that are of con
siderable higher altitude. This eleva
tion, with tho pure atmosphere and the
pure water supply, gives Atlanta pre
eminence as a healthful place, Its
population Is HC.OOO. Thcro are L'25
miles of streets In Atlanta. Many are
wide,
handsome avenues, waved with i
Incline of all the most Important thor
oughfares from tho center of tho city In
all directions (for Atlanta, like Home,
rests on seven hills) uffords unsur
passed natural drainage. The sanitary
condition of tho city is unexcelled, The
climate Is an ideal one, healthful and
pleasant. The winters are short and
rarely severe, while tho summers are
not hot nnd debilitating. The tempera
ture rarely reaches 100 degrees and sel
dom falls to zero, Heal winter Is not
experienced until Jnnuary, nnd fires are
often unnecessary till nbout Christmas,
Fevers uro extremely rare, and epidem
ics have never prevailed, The absence
of fogs and humidity Is noticeable, In
u word, no city enjoys a moro equable
winter climate, and any traveler going
south for the season, should spend a
portion of tho time ut the Oute City,
WATEK SUPPLY.
Atlanta has never suffered for water,
pure und abundant. The city enjoys
one'of the most complete waterworks In
the country, No city in the Union has
n larger supply of tho purest wuter,
coming, as It does, direct from the
mountains, fed by many pure springs.
It Is drawn from tho upper Chntta
lioocha river and pumped by two 10,
000,000 gallon pumps Into a reservoir
having a capacity of 180,000,000 gullom.

100 WILLIAM ST., NCW YORK.
Then after settling, It comes by gravl-
tatlon through a fine system of lllterti !
to a "clear water basin," where it Is
taken by two lO.OOO.OCO gallon high- I
pressure engines and pumped into the
city through duplicate mains of thirty
Indies each. Water can bo forced In-
stantaneously through 100 miles of varl-
ous size pipe throughout the city. The
present pun ping capacity is equal to
the wants of 2."O,O0O people. The aver-
age consumption is MCO.OOO gallons per
day, drawn from S,r92 taps and 1,12!
lire hydrants.
There Is no doubt that the wonderful
health that Atlanta enjoys is owing in
a great measure to the good, pure and
abundant water supply.
ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
In the practical application of eloc-
. trlclty, as In everything else, Atlanta
! leads the South. No other city can
uonai m rv .iirge a mimuer 01 eiegani
resiliences uguieu, nor so many stores
and offices made luminous by electric
ity. The electric plant is furnished in
duplicate, thus preventing the cutting
off of the light by accident. Tho under
ground conduit system is belni inaug
urated. There are H.",(! are lights of L'.f.OO
candle-power each, and ITS series lights
used, between dark and daylight, light
ing an area of ten square miles, mak
ing Atlanta one of the best illuminated
cities in the Union.
According to population, Atlanta has
moro miles of street railway than any
other city In tho Union, the motive
power being electricity entirely. The
total length of electric ear mileage Is
ISO miles, traversing the principal
streets, mostly double-tracked, and all
radiating from the great hotels and the
Union Passenger depot, which is the
exact center of tho city.
The cemeteries of Atlanta are eight
in number nnd among the most beauti
ful of the land. The most important
one Is the Oakland, comprising an area
of eighty-five acres. In It are Interred
the remains of several thousand Con
federate soldiers, and an Imposing
monument has been erected to their
memory. All are reached by electric
car lines.
PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
As the South is proud of Atlnntn, so
is Atlanta proud of her public build
ings. The state capital, the postofllee,
tho Grnnd opera house, hospitals, the
medical colleges, the libraries, the col
leges and seminaries, the churches and
hotels, all are referred to with pride by
Atlantians. indicative of the growth
and prosperity of Atlanta In the last
ten years. About $10,000,000 has been
Invested in Atlanta buildings since 1800.
High and spacious buildings of mag
nificent architecture and Impressive
proportions are being built to accom
modate the growing and extensive busi
ness of this progressive city. Last year
2,125 permits were given for the erec
tion of new buildings, at a cost of $1,
2'J3,'J37. A striking evidence of the new
era of prosperity upon which Georgia,
as well as tho other southern states
have entered, Is the handsome new
capital at Atlanta. It was built In 1SC8
of Indiana limestone, three stories high,
317 feet long and 27-' feet wide, and cost
$1,000,000. A generation ago, on this
historic ground, hostllo armies were
battling for possession of this strategic
point; but the roar of cannon baa been
succeeded by the hum of spindles, tho
rattle or musketry by tho rattlu of
drays, and the snioko from the guns, by
smoke from 700 manufacturing plants,
Tho view obtained from this command
ing sight of tho city and country
around Is Impressive.
Tho postolllco Is a million dollar

Atlanta Is a city of churches. Any
one of them Is a credit to Its citizens.
The white people havo eighty-two and
the regron fifty-six, with largo member
ship and active workers, especially In
tho interest of the colored peopla
through their mission Sunday schools.
Every denomination Is represented here.
The membership nearly doubled in the
last decade, It was our privilege to
spend Sunday In Atlanta and attend tho
Central Presbyterian church, tho larg
est Protestant church In the city, tho
Rev. Dr, Theron H. Rice, pastor, and
with him visit his colored mission
school of 200 pupils, the teachers being
exclusively from hla own membership.
HOTELS.
Atlunta has several tine hotels, tho
three deserving special mention are tho
Kimball, the Aragon and Bon-Air.
Tho Kimball is a magnificent structure
of eight stories located In the very
heart of the city, surrounded by the
marts of trade und hi closy
proximity to the Union depot, where ull
the great linos of railroad center and
from which electric street car lines run
to every portion of tho city and out to
tho delightful suburbs und parks. This
hotel can readily aceoimnodnto a thou
sand guests. The Aragon Is probably
the noblest hotel Mructuro In the state,
typical of all thul is advanced In
American architecture, good tastu und
refined elegance. It stands on the hlgh-

est poln in the city, just where tho
commercial center ends and the resi
dential portion begins, three squares
from the Union depot. Peachtree
street, one of the beautiful residential
J avenues In this country, begins almost
j at the very door? of tho Aragon.
! Across from tho hotel ure the governors
mansion and the fashionable Capital ,
; club, and just below Is the Grand Opciu
house. The hotel is built of marble,
stone nnd brick and six stories high,
, of the Spanish Itomansenne type. Upon
j the roof Is a charming roof garden, a
I bit of fragrant fairyland, with palms, '
blooming llowers and tinkling foun
tains, where nightly one of the finest
orchestras In the city lcgales with the,
latest melodies and operas Its favored
guests. It was our Sunday home, and
the days spent here were enjoyable.
Tho postal receipts of any city are
recognized as a sure trade barometer,
i f.tlcc 1Sfl0 tK receipts have more than
doubled. Those for 161-0 to 1SCI, July 1,
were $331,000,000; money orders paid,
$1, 503,000. Tho postofllee disposes of
over 100,000 pieces of mall matter daily.
In the Southern cities Atlanta ranks
third In postal ii celpts.
EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES.
The educational facilities or Atlanta,
both public and private, are second to
none in tho South and compare favor
orably with any city of its size In the
Union. Tho negro Is .better taken care
of hero in the matter of education than
in any city in the United States. They
have six public schools for thflr exclu
sive use. and in addition, six institu
tions of higher education elaborately
equipped and handsomely endowed.
These are the Atlanta University, Spcl
mun Seminary, Clark University, Gam
mon Theological Seminary, Morris
Brown College, and the Atlanta Baptist
College. The chancellor of the Univer
sity of Georgia says: "The equipment
and the faculty of these colored Insti
tutions are fully equal, if not superior,
to the University of Georgia and other
colleges for the education of white peo
ple." It Is important to know
that in these institutions, two of
them, the practical side of edu
cation rcceles attention, and in
Clark University and nt Spelman
Seminary negro men are taught vari
ous trades and negro women are
trained not only In all kinds of domes
tic service, but as nurses for hospitals.
Thus It seems that Atlanta is making
the most of Its negro population. The
public schools devoted to whites nlon-
number nineteen, with large and hand-
I some edlllces. The total number of
' teachers employed in all the schools are
, 211 and the enrollment 13,037; average
. attendance, 10,331. Atlanta Is sur
rounded by educational suburbs which
. have numerous Institutions for higher
education. Nothing shows the growth
, and intelligent advancement of a city
as much as those Institutions of learu
i Ins. Among them Is the Southern Fe
1 male College, located in College Park,
an Ideal residence and educational sub
urb, founded some nine years ago. Thl.i
Is one of the most successful female
colleges la tho South. Tho college
building is the lnrgest In Georgia and
one of the largest in the South. It Is a
...u .,. il- uiki ... u.u .h ii
four-story structure of brick nnd stone,
jo feet in,,,, inn tw wi,i ,, ,iu ,i
210 feet long, 100 feet wldo at ends and
HO feet wldo at tho center, with u domu
rising above the fourth door, A pas
senger elevator gives quick and easy
access to tho upper stories. The entire
building Is equipped with water pipes
nnd eleott io lights. There Is u spa
cious chapel, a commodious library of
fi.OOO volumes, a museum with S.000 na
tural history specimens, and well
equipped with chemical und physical
laboratories, Tho musical equipment
' includes a largo pipe organ and forty
six pianos. A special feature of this
, department Is a ladles orchestra con
sisting of thirty-two pieces. Tho art
studios uro furnished with statuary,
casts and models. This Institution has
I Its own waterworks and Its electric
I light and steam heating plants. Tho
clock in the tower not only strikes tho
hours, but rings the changes for reci
tations on electric bells in the recitation
rooms. Tho college is connected with
Atlanta by telephone. It has a faculty
of thirty teachers, and there are three
courses of study, a college of liberal
arts, a school of line arts und u school
of practical arts, and so I might enu
merate, In a word, it's one of the up-to-dato
femalo colleges of the South
und the Union.
THE LIBRARIES.
Atlanta has two of tho lluest libraries
to bo found In any city, tho Carnegie
library, the luto gift of Andrew Car
negie, and the State library, with Its
thousands of volumes, which are ac
cessible to the public, besides those in
several of the schools which uro acces
sible to the school children. The Car
negie llbrury Is without doubt one of
the city's most valuubln possessions,
for It's one of the blessings In which
all may participate and receive benefit.
It may be enjoyed alike uy millionaire
and pauper und with profit to both.
Mr. Carnegie, with his characteristic
generosity, offered, In 1809, to give tins
city $100,000 to build a new library, If
the city would furnish a site and guar
antee $3,000 n year for Its support. The
Young Men'rt Christian association of
fered to the city their entire property,
worth $100,000 to furnish a site for th.!
new library. This happy combination
was i-onsti minuted by freedom from po
litical Intrigue mid the organization ef
fected Just three months after Mr. Car
negie's offer, when Mr. Carnegie uddrd
$23,000 additional to tno building fund.
In (ho words of Mayor Woodwind, "A
hind and all-wlso Providence aided an
Industrious and energetic people In di
recting that public, benefactor, Andrew
Carnegie, In his noble gift to the etly.
which has been tins cause of the estab
lishment of a free circulating llbraiy
such as should cause a throb of Joy to
every heart In Atlanta."
Atlanta can well be proud of Its two
leading papers, the Atlanta Constitu
tion, the morning paper and tho At
lanta Jotirunl, tho evening paper. It
would Indeed bo hard to explain where-1
In the one excels the other, both being
the lending papers of tho South; their
editorials are copied and commented
upon all over the country. The Constl-,
tutlon was the Into Henry W. Grady's
paper up to tho time of bis death l.i '
1SS9, and it Is gonernlly admitted that '
its broad-minded policy has been a
powerful factor tu tho Industrial and
commercial development of Georgia and
of the whole South, nnd particularly In
strumental in transforming Atlanta
from a straggling, devastated town into
on up-to-date metropolis. The Journal
claims to bo tho paper for the people,
standing for their rights and repre
senting their Interests. Its average cir
culation Is 30,000 and growing constant
ly. Wo are indebted to tho editors of
both of these papers and Hon. John S.
Parks, of tho city council, for valuable
information pertaining to Atlanta, and
Its Industries.
VARIED INTERESTS.
Certainly no city in the South nnd
few In the entire country have as va
ried mnmifneturincr Interests nr nnnnil-
! er financial Institutions. By rearon of
cheap mnterlal, building costs less In
Atlanta than nlmost anywhere else and
Imposing structures eight, ten, eleven
and fourteen stories high attest the
money which seeks Investment In this
field. Probably no city of Its size In
the country has a greater number ot
handsome homes than Atlanta.
Atlanta supports some 700 industries,
nnd can boast of some of the most en
terprising concerns In tho South, and
$15,000,000 Is Invested in these enter
prises, which employ more than 1C0C0
persons nnd which pay In salaries and
wages something like $20,000 a day and
turn out products which sell for $21,
000.000 per annum.
Atlanta is a cosmopolitan city, more
so than any other in the Southern
states. Almost every state in the
North and West and every country ot
Ihirope is represented among its resi
dents. These diverse elements, com
posed of the best and most cnterp'ls
Ing people from thlr and other coun
tries, instead of producing friction and
continual jar, as some might suppose,
gives the city a vigorous and progres
sive spirit, which mains it easily first
of all Southern communities in the race
of progress. Its growth strikingly Il
lustrates the intelllg-nee and mter
prlse of its cosmopolitan and prngres-
sive citizens.
