Against Rate Reduction.

Atlanta, Cattle recent proposition
of J. Pope Brown, Chairman of the
Georgia Railroad Commission, to re-
duce the passenger rate in Georgia
from three to two cents per mile was
protested against by the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, the Order OF
Railway Conductors, and unions of tho
blacksmiths, machinists and telegraph
ers, boilermakers, railway train men,
carpenters and joiners, clerks and car
men. These organizations employed An
attorney especially to represent them,
who urged that such reduction would
work against the prosperity OF the
State and lead to a reduction in the
number of railroad employees as well
as of their wages. The Travellers Pro-
tective Association also protested that
a reduction as proposed would result In
fewer trains and poorer service.

COMMERCIAL REVIEW.
R. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review Of

r. &. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review OF
Trade" says:
Erratic weather has tended to make
trade reports somewhat irregular; but
on the whole the weeks results were
satisfactory.
1t is noteworthy that much business
for Fall delivery has appeared, and more
supplementary Spring and Summer con.
tracts are being placed than jobbers an.
ticipated. Mercantile payments are also
increasingly prompt
Industrial activity expands, iron fur
naces and steel mills maintaining their
good record, textile plants securing
larger orders, and footwear manufacture
ers are able to hold full prices without
curtailing operations.
Labor controversies are few and cause
little inconvenience, while immigration
for the last week was more than double
that of the corresponding week in. 1904
Transporting interests are able to han
die the increased business with little
congestion, railway earnings thus far re-
ported for April exceeding last years
by 1912 per cent.
Higher wage scales becoming effec-
tive on May 1 assure freedom from Ia
Dor troubles at blast furnaces, and there
is little friction at the steel mills, but
the industry will be interrupted unless
iron ore is freely mined Otherwise the
iron and steel industry is in splendid
condition, contracts covering deliveries
well into next year in many departments,
and there is no division that can be
styled dull.
Failures this week numbered 200 in
the United States, against 24I last year,
and FL in Canada, compared with IL
year ago.
Bradstreets says: LII
Wheat, including -four, exports for
the week ending April 20 are I,242,267
bushels, against I,2o2,3oI last week; l.
645,428 this week last year; 3,SS8,542 in

Water Preserves Human Bodies.

Monte Carlos authorities have for
hidden the use of certain reservoir,
despite the alarming water famine
now prevalent at Monte Carlo. A
writer comments as follows. They
would rather face the ills they know
than fly to the possibilities of typhus
whose existence they suspect. Monte
Carlo is the suicide capital and those
who destroy their lives are not par
ticular where they take their last
rest. Perhaps the suspected reservoir,
were it's waters drawn off, could tell
tales. Water is a wonderful preserva-
tive of the human body. There exists
an entry in the parish register Of st.
Andrews, Newcastle, England, boar
ing upon the point: April "a, 1895,
were buried James Archer and his son
Stephen, who in the moneth of May,
1858, who drowned in a coal-pit in the
Gallafat, by the breaking-in of water
from an old waste. The bodys were
found intire, after they had Len in the
water thirty-six years and eleven
months" ff

Great Rival.
The Makaroff memorial just issued,

fore the outbreak Of the war in the
far East.
The part of Washington which
pleased him best was the National Mu'

thropologists in America, the acting
dean, Prof. Otis T. Mason. Prof. Ma

man. He looked like picturesque
pocket-edition beside the magnificent
Makaroff, with his broad shoulders
and massive chest and huge beard.
They were standing before the in
complete Russian exhibit. Prof. Ma
son explained several reasons why the
collector had failed to do his duty,
ending, according to his invariable
kindness, with the remark: II sup.
pose we must consider them as ade-
quate excuse" Instantly Admiral Ma
karoff replied: There are plenty OF
reasons, but there is never an excuse
for any failure" His deep voice was
like velvet thunder. 1t made whatever
he said seem momentous. And he
came by thu principle honestly. II

A THLETES realize the importance of
"A keeping in good bodily trim.
The digestion must be good, the circula-

If the slightest catarrhal condition OF

neither digestion nor sleep will be strength

Those aOlto lead very active lives,
like athletes, Nth good muscular de-

Mark Twain was visiting H. IA.
Rogers. and was led into the library.
"There," said Mr.. Rogers, as he
pointed to bust in white marble,
"what do you think of that?"
The work of art pictured young
woman coiling her hair, a very grace
full example of modern Italian sculp-
ture.
Mr.. Clemens looked at 1t moment,
and then he said, ut isn't true to ma
ture."
"Why not" asked his host.
