space to seat 100 people comfortably. and
to give room for the church organ and

sent to the shop to receive a coat of paint
and varnish whenever needed. They are
fitted with sx-whee trucks and air
brakes. The cost of the cars is $1,000

cars are hauled from place to place free
of charge. The first car that was bulk

names that have been provided are Glad

camps of Colorado, the logging camps of
Wisconsin and Minnesota and the frontier
towns Of nearly all Of the Western states
have received visits from the chapel car.
They usually occur before any effort has
been made looking toward the organiza-
ton of a church. The visit of the car
frequently creates as much interest as the
coming of circus. Besides doing
pioneer work, some OF the cars do con-
siderable special work among the en-
ployes in the railroad yards through
which they pass.

The Twentieth Century National Gospel
Campaign is the name of a recently or
Ranized movement for the evangelizatbon
of this country and Canada The Savan-
nah ministers have been appealed to
1oin IN and assist the work. but the APP
peal has been so recent that the mat
ter has not yet been considered by them.
The movement was begun by Mr.. Will
fam Phillips Hail of New York, mil
aioneeue evangelist. Formerly he had
been active in preaching himself, but
throat trouble forced him to abandon the
pulpit and so he decided to continue the
work by the organization of society.
The Twentieth Century National Cam
paign is the result of this determination.
The movement, though organized only
recently. has already developed great
strength, especially in Canada, and in
the West.
In most of the large cities all over the
country the movement has been taken up
and meetings of ministers, which are at
tended with much interest are being he d.
The plan as outlined by the committee ts
TO have the work undertaken by individ-
ual churches under the direction of the
pastors and officers. The campaign is the
first one ever organized which deals with
the subject of a general evangehstic
movement carried on through existing
agencies. The scheme is so simple and
so flexible that 1t appeals at once to mis-
listers of all denominations.
1t is very likely that Mr.. Hall, who IS
the chairman of the organization, will be

REPORT OF MIR. SMITH
PRESIDENT or RAILROAD COM MISSION AT WORK.
It will Be Departure from Previous Reports and will Include Much
 Matter of Interest to ..-. the People. .'.a'

Hon. John V. Smith, President of the Alabama Railroad Commisiasa, IS now. and has been for some time. at work preparing his annual report To the Governor. as required by law. wh1cn report Is required to be published py the 10th day of October.
 Mir. Smith has made an entire de- parture in the preparation of this re- nort from what has heretofore been done. The annual reports heretofore have contained onily the reports Of the railroads to the Commission, giving the history of the organization. opera tion earning, etc., of the railroads ih Alabama. This information Is requir- ed to be furnished by the railroads 10 the Railroad Commissioners Tor the benefit of the State Board Of Assess fnent, but is of no special interest 10 the public at large.
 Section 3491 of the Code requires the Railroad Commissioners to supervise and revise all matters of passenger ana freight tariff. The people are more interested in the tariff they have to nav than in any matter of railroad statistics. The report now being pIe- pared by MT. Smith will contain the following data:
 .First-Rules of practice, governing the filing and hearing of complaints.
 Second-Rules governing the erection and maintenance of depots.
 Third-General rules governing trans portation of passengers. and baggage tariff.
 Fourth-General rules governing transportation of freight within the State.
 Fifth-Alabama car service rules.
 Sixth-Southern justification with ex- ception sheets of all the railroads In Alabama.
 Seventh-Distance tariffs of every railroad in Alabama, with notes as te any change in the tariff of such road
 Eighth-A table showing the amount of dividends declared by the severa railroads. Ninth-A statement of the mileage of the railroads within the State. Tenth-Mieage of new roads built being built. by what system and name of new road.
 Eleyenth-Gross earnings operating expenses and net earnings of each railroad in Alabama.
 It will be seen that when this repor' is published. every person. feeling ar interest in the matter. can know ex- actlS what the tariff is on any article to and onAevery point in the State of Alabama. A simple form of com plaint has also been provided which may be filled out and sent to the Rail road Commissioners as to any matter found to be wrong.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1901-08-24

This institution, located on Dexter Avenue, opposite Postoffice, over Ellis & Gay, Montgomery, is one of the lead ing institutions of the kind in the coun- try. Professor Draughon, who is the author of four textbooks on Book keeping, and who was recently offered special inducements by foieig coun- try to open a Business College across the waters, states that he Is confident that his bookkeeping students are fifty per cent more proficient at the end of a ten weeks course than the bookkeep- ing students of almost any other Busi- ness College at the end of a SIX months' course. The advanced Shoit- hand students at this College are gwen a course of practical office training in the College office, hence they are com potent, upon leaving College. to hold positions. Draughon's Practical Busi- ness Colleges, located in Montgomery, Nashville. St. Louis, Little Rock. At lanta. Shreveport. Ft. Worth and Gal weston, are endorsed by practical bookkeepers and business men from Maine to California. Prof. Draughon reports that the past year has been the most prosperous year, both for attend ance and success in placing his grad mates in good positions, since his first college was established, fifteen years ago, and that the outlook for the fall business is exceedingly good. Stu dents who take Prof. Draughon's Guarantee Course are allowed to de- postt money for tuition in bank until course Is completed and position secur- ed. Prof Draughon doubtless expends more money in securing positions for his graduates than almost any other Rusiness College in the country takes in as tuition.
