my troubles. That Ink bottle was like a
sudden gleam of sunlight. I rememberccl
having tossed it aside just as I took An
nie's basket to carry It for her, so I couldn't
be more than twenty or thirty feet from
the school house.
"I turned my face from the storm and
called at the top of my voice, but could not
even hear myself. Then I began to figure
on directions and distance, I had been lost

inside.
"It was so dark that I couldn't sen nny
one, and I called out before I realized that
1 had never culled her by her name of
'Annie' before. A faint and smothered
answer came from the opposite comer of
tho room, and going over there I found
that her nerves hail given way and she
had been having a gisirt cry. i cheered her
up by calling attention to my dilapidated
condition, with clothes awry, hand cut,
ankle sprained and soaking wet from head
to foot now that the snow had begun to
melton me. The llrst thing to be done
was lo di y myself out, and I built a raging
hot fire. I was soon dried out and pre
pin til tu go out to the woodshed and bring
Iu some wood, when Annie demurely In
formed me there was none there. A patron
of theschocl living over on tho banks of
Hone illll creek had promised to bring
over a load of woisl the day before, but
had evidently postponed It, and the few
Micks lying by the stove was all to lie had.
This made tho outlook a serious matter,
and I felt it my duty to explain it. to her.
'"You evidently expect this storm to
blow over soon ' I said. 'Hut It will cer

longer, rjitpiiost! It should keep us prison
ers here for days. We might be able to
starve for two or three days, but fire we
must have. We couldn't possibly freeze
that long,'
" 'Oh, what shall we dof she asked,
now thoroughly alarmed. Please devise
some means.'
"I told her I would make no effort to
ward otr starvation, as that was beyond
me, but I would try to keep up the lire;
and buttoning up my coat I went out to
the woodshed to see If I could Mud any
thing. The woodshed, let mo say, consist
ed of three or four planks against two
trees that grew together, forming the
back with a few shoit and rough slabs for
a roof. I found a log, which hnd been too
tough for the bos to cut up, and with this
I demolished the shed and got nil tlio
pieces Into the house. When I got warmed
Annie Invited me to take supper, ami I
found she had some dellclously toasted
brend nnd meat broiled on the coals, which
she informed me was a part of the lunch
sho had not nil time to eat at noon, and
the rest she was saving as wo were now on
'short rations.'
"Well, the material I had brought Iu
lasted till nearly morning, but the storm
was as severe as ever. .1 had persuaded
Annie to lie on the licnch near the stove,
and, with our heavy wraps for a couch, get
a little sleep. As morning came 1 took the
table, broke it up and fed it to the stove.
The recitation bench went next, then the
chairs and then followed in succession the
desks, one by one. Late In the evening of
that day I saw that there was absolutely
no way iu which I could make the fire last
through another night, and I told Annie
to get ready to make a supremo elTort to
reach the nearest house, which was about
a mile distant. The wind was now d)ing
down and the cold was evidently not so in
tense, and 1 saw if wo were to make tin
elTort at all, now was the chance.
THE PANTIIKU AT THE DOOIt
"With our wraps tightly around us, we
went to the door, pushed It open through
tho drifted snow, and just had time to
shut It again before an immense panther
could spring upon us.
".lust fancy our situation! I had evi
dently heard this panther growllngsevernl
times during the day. but thought it was
n starving coyote or a dog under the house,
and here we were now. Imprisoned In ear
nest. We took off our wraps in order to feel
their value when wo needed them, and I
sat down on the window sill to think It
over. An unreasoning and resistless anger
against that panther took possession of me,
nnd yet I did not dare go out to him with
only my pistol.
"Climbing upon the doorknob, with my
head through the transom iiIhivo the door,
it was still light enough for me to take
good aim, and 1 sent a bullet through his
noso and another into his head. Ho sprang
townrdiine, btit'foll short, and I emptied
every enrtridge'into Ids tawny hide. Tlils

mashed his forelegs while lie was trying
to squeeze through tho small opening, and
his howl of pain was answered by the
crack of a rifle and a shout on the outside.
As he dropped heavily upon the little door

"They had como for Annie from her
boarding place as soon as they could pos
sibly make any headway through that
storm, and we wero soon by a warm fire,
eating a hearty supper. I secured an offer
on my ranch the following spring, and be
lieving I hnd better stick to a business 1
knew something about, I sold out and re
turned to civil engineering."

Atlanta, iluno (). Figures aro elo
quent. They ninko facts plain and em
phatic. Therefore I will introduce the
subject of this letter by quoting from
statistics found iu tlio office of tlio stato
school commissioner of Georgia, situated
in tho capltot building in tills city.
Tho total number of children of school
ages in Georgia is by tho last census ro
IMirt ftOO.Sfjl. Of theso !IM,U8S aro white.
BOH.aai colored.
Not all of theso children attend school,
but it Ih safe to say that fully -100.000 do,
and that 150,000 of these aro colored
children.
Tho school fund that educates theso
children in the public schools amount
to aJOiKJ.OSU.O.'!. It is raised by direct
taxation on tho properties of the popu
lation and one-half of tho rental ef
tho Western nnd Atlantic railroad. Thai
liul f is only $00,000.
Tho total value of tho property of tlio
iwoplo of tho stato is $1 15,000.000. Tlio
colored tiooplo own only 11,000,000
worth of this property. Practically this
makes tho whito population educate tho
colored.
Tho colored children receive their full
share of tho school fund of tho state.
There is no discrimination in this. Tho
color lino is drawn only by keeping tlio
schools separate. Hy a law of tho state,
no teacher in any school can receive pay
from the stato fund for his or her serv
ices if children of both races receive in
struction iu his or her school. There
fore it follows that there aro whito
teachers in tho whito schools and col
ored teachers iu tho colored schools.
Tho institutes or normal classes for
tho improvement of tho teachers aro
also kept separate. Tho teachers of
both races submit to tho sumo examina
tions, under tho sumo rules uud regula
tions. They receive tho same grade of
licenses, and tho pay pro rata is tho
same under tlio sumo circumstances.
In Atlanta there nro thirteen largo
public school houses. Four of these nro
for tho colored children, nnd they aro as
well built and equipped in overy respect
as those of tho whites. Tlio attendnnco
is not quito so largo nor so regular.
Tho curriculum of study is tho Biime,
and tho colored children compuro fairly
with tho whites in., scholottdiip consid
ering their diffOrenco of circumstances,
homo surroundings and tho fact that
most of them nro wage workers for a
part of tho day or a part of tlio year at
least.
Just hero I will remark that tlio old
time picturesque nnd patltetio attitudo
of tho darkj is u thing .of tho past.
There is no moro banjo playing, no moro
fiddlo and bow, no moro bones and tam
bourine, no moro com songs or Congo
dances. Tho young southern darkies of
both sixes beuron their personalities,
outsido of color, hair and facial peculi
arities, as closo a likeness to tho whito
American school and college boy and
girl as it is possible to acquire. Tho
dress, manners and deiwrtuient of tho
northern nnd northwestern boys and
girls whoso parents have settled down
hero sinco tho war, but particularly tlio
northern white teachers who wero tlio
pioneers in tho field of tho negro's edu
cation, nro imitated with n fidelity that
id ut onco edifying, amusing nnd com
leal. They aro sedate ami correct in de
portment. By far tho most interesting of tho t'oiu
higher institutions of learning estab
lished for tlio colored peoplo hero in At
lanta is tlio Spelman seminary. It is,
indeed, a pleasing sight to seo nearly u
thousand young colored women and
girls assembled in a beautiful and well
equipped institution, passing along tho
corridors and up and down the stair
cases, seated in their classrooms, recit
ing with fairly trained voices lessons
that would bo creditable to any class of
students; taking their meals iu tlio
great refectories, with tablo manners ns
correct as thoso.of tlio girls of Vassnr or
Wellosley,.und performing tho work of
tho kitchen nnd laundry nnd sewing
room in a way that gives evidence of
good training and receptivo'minds.
Tho cost of board and tuition in this
institution is duly seven dollars a month.
Tho entiro domestic service, all tho work
of tho house, is of course performed by
tho students. In addition to tlio depart
ments for normal, literary and mission
ary training and music, this school gives
special training in sowing, dressmaking,
printing, housekeeping, cooking and
nursing the sick. Tho ladies of Atlanta
bestow high praise on tho trained nurses
sent out ironi Spelman seminary. They
nro well equipped for their work and
nro in demand at ten dollars a week for
their services. Tho Atlanta doctors say
that they aro tho best nurses iu the
world.
Now tho "fads" in Georgia nro educa
tion, culture uud "society." In nil theso
tho colored population aro us deeply in
terested as tlio whites. Consequently
tho language heard in the streets of At
lanta is generally grammatical, tho
pronunciation correct, and tho man
ners of both races quito ns "swell" us
those of tho Four Hundted of New
York. From my own personal observation,
ns well ns from the reports of tho county
school commissioners throughout this
state, and noticeably in tlio black belt
or cotton producing isotherm, tlio in
terest felt in tlio canto of education
among tlio colored peoplo keeps pace
with that of tlio whites. Thousands of
good school houses aro found in this
belt, and during tlio summer mouths
particularly after tho crops aro laid by,
they aro filled with young darky chil
dren who aro taught for tho most p.ut
by graduates of tlio four colleges for the
colored peoplo iu Athtuta, though not a
few of tlieso teachers are from a branch
college of tho stato university.
