which lines Of the system, traverse.
It will seek Immigration not only from
foreigners newly landed. but from resi-
dents OF other States. who want to try
new localities and new fields of industry
There will be in this connection a care
full complication OF facts relating to the
territory, the towns along the SYSTEMS
lines, the possible extension OF old In
dustries and the establishment OF new
ones.
In tic States covered by the Atlantic
Coast Line, Louisville and Nashville and
Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis
there are great areas OF cotton and
agricultural lands awaiting higher de-
velopment, vast stretches OF timber
lands, rich mineral deposits, water power
capable OF utilization,,all waiting only
to the combination of capital and labor
for development.
Coast Line Earnings.
The Atlantic Coast Limo and It's allied
roads made last year nearly $67.oo0.00o
In gross earnings. This was apportioned,
$50, 943,7s2 to Louisville and Nashville.
s102o6,022 to Nashville, Chattanooga
and st. Louis and s20,545,o 900 to tho At
lantlc Coast Line.
For nine months this fiscal year the
three systems show q Join increase of
s1,719,3 $40 In gross earnings, ms compared
with 1904. Tho only one to show a de-
crease is Nashville. Chattanooga and St.
Louis. which fell s67,o72 below Its record
for tho corresponding period In 1904.
with the new bureau OF publicity in
successful operation the Atlantic Coast
Line expects appreclably quick results.
Through the location OF the new indus
tries and the development Of new busl-
ness It anticipates Increases in gross
earnings throughout it's entire territory,
In taking up for the South the sys-
tematic compilation OF statistics relat-
ing to its field. tho Coast Line Is doing
what has brought great results when
tried by other systems In other sections.
Probably the best organized existing sys-
tens are those OF the Rock Island. the
Hill roads and the Southern Pacific.

Courts as well as doctors sometimes
disagree as to whether an individual
is dead or mol. An administrators
was appointed for the estate of a
California woman whose whereabouts
were unknown for seven years and
who was supposed to be dead, and
some of the property was sold to
school, after which the missing wom-
an appeared and claimed her proper
ty. The school said she was legally
dead and pointed to the administra-
tor on her estate to prove it. The
Judge decided she was legally alive.
The school board appealed TO the
superior court and that tribunal said
she was legally alive. The board APP
pealed to the state supreme court,
and that tribunal decided she was
legally dead She then appealed to
the United States supreme court and
that high tribunal decides she is le-
gally dead and that ends it.

THE SAME IN HIS BUSINESS.
Tailor, Like Lawyer, Had Moments
When Solitude Was Desirable.

The late Judge Charles Henry War
rem was regarded as one of the WITT
test men in the legal profession In
Massachusetts. The following is one
OF his stories which he told to lady
in England several years ago:
when I lived in New Bedford"
said the Judge. my law Office was in
the second story Of a building. and
directly under me was a room on the
street floor occupied by a tailor. When
business was slack with the tailor he
used to come up to chat with me.
Zone day as he was coming in he
saw that | was busy writing at my
table. oh, Judge he said. you are
busy and | won't intrude. Come In,
said |, for | am only copying, and
can copy and carry on conversation
at the same time Well. now. Judge.
said the tailor, you and ! are much
alike. When | am running up plain
seam | can chat with my friends, but
when | come to making a buttonhole,

Lawyer Had Expresses NO Willing
ness to Split Bristles.


One OF the ablest lawyers and advo-
Gates New England ever produced was
Roger Minott Sherman, who was also
famous for the quickness Of his wit
A story which fully illustrates Sher-
mans powers of rel artee Is quoted by
the late Senator Hoar in his book, en-
titled IAN Autobiography of Seventy
Years"
On one occasion Sherman was argu
ing case against Nathan Smith. a
very able, but rather coarse lawyer.
Mr.. Smith had discussed the question
OF law with the subtlety for which he
was distinguished. Mr.. Sherman said
To the scourt that he thought his
brother Smiths metaphysics were out
Oh place in that discussion; that he
was not averse to such refinement at
a proper time. and would be willing
on a fit occasion. TO chop logic and
split hairs with him.
Smith Immediately pulled hair out
Of his own head and, holding ii up,
said:
Split that"
Sherman replied. quick as lightning:
MAY it please your honor, didn't
say bristles."
