AN OLD SOLDIER RECOLLECTIONS OF A CONFEDERATE GENERAL
An article from the New York Morning Journal recounts an elderly man on a Chicago panorama trip recalling Gettysburg and a wartime moment with General Lee. The tale shifts to a street encounter in Detroit where a boy seeks a dime, revealing a broader reflection on charity, poverty, and moral judgment. The storyteller recounts a later visit where he helps the family with a substantial $25, then learns the boy and father died, prompting a vow to give aid rather than deny help to those in need.

Prohibition Impacts Dalton Whitfield County Economy
The Dalton area reports a $125,000 rise in property values over the past year since prohibition took effect. About 100 new voters increased county population by 500, while businesses and families prosper. A former opponent of prohibition now supports it as liquor absence boosts commerce. Schools churches and society are described as purer and flourishing, with tax reports as the source and more detailed tables promised from the Atlanta Constitution.

Young man warned by ice cream saloon remark
A quip argues that a woman who passes an ice cream saloon without looking may be a good wife, while one who can look in without entering is too strong minded for the average man. The saying mocks courtship by contrasting restraint with audacity.
