railroads and private citizens at the one sided hearing. This being the case, 1t would seem impossible that the commis- sion could make any change in the rate as a result of the hearing held last Thursday. In the event it should contem- plate taking any step there is no doubt that 1t would have to give the railroads notice of another hearing and let them answer any propositions relating to the other side which the commission might take up for consideration
 But where any such propositions are coming from Is a question. No state in the Union. and there ara twenty or more which have more population per mile of railroad than Georgia, has ever put in a two-cent flat rate
 Notwithstanding all this. however, the hearing may and doubtless will have it's good effect. It will impfess the railroads with the fact that the public eye is con- stantly upon them. and they will no doubt. become more inclined to make such concessions as the public demands. The public may not demand two-cent passenger rate, but it doss demand first class, passenger service and facilities. speed and safety in travel and good de- pots. If the railroads ard spurred to the point of giving little npre attention to these, it can well be said that some good has beer, gained

 At the rate the work is now going on the new furnace will probably be blown in about October l.
 Never in the history of Chattanooga has common labor been as scarce as it is today. During the past sixty days the wages paid common laborers has jumped from $l per day to s1.25 and $135, and even at the latter price the supply of men is not equal to the demand.
 There is more building going on here now than ever before, while the improve ments which have been going on for the past few weeks at the old Chattanooga furnace the copper mines at Duektown and the railroad work at Somerset, Ky, have taken a large number of laborers from their regular Jobs here, as small advance in wages has been offered by agents representing the companies con- trolling the work mentioned above.
 In addition to this there will be great demand for laborers in a few days, when w. J. Oliver & Co.,, the railroad con- tractors of Knoxville start outfits on the Lookout mountain tunnel which is to De built on the Stevenson extension of the Southern railway. Tnare are numerous other small jobs which will be a great drain on common labor through this sec- tion, and 1t is feared that the scarcity may become so great that from S1.50 to $2 per day will have 10 be offered for this class of workmen.

CHATTANOOGA IRON
 MARKET IS QUIET
PRICES FOR COMMON LABOR AO- VANCE AND EVEN THEN THE SUPPLY OF MEN IS LESS THAN THE DEMAND.

Chattanooga. Tenn, April 2.-(Special) There is absolutely no change in the Chattanooga iron market this week. The demand is well supplied by the local fur naces and has remained steady all week. There have been few large orders re- ceived here recently, but the number at small ones has been especially large. Local dealers are especially optimistic over the outlook for the next few weeks and state that they expect to see great demand for iron on the $135O basis.
 The work of rebuilding the old Chatta- nooga furnace, which will be operated in the future by the reorganizcd Chatta- nooga Furnace company, Is progressing rapidly. Nearly all of the old furnace and surrounding buildings will be in- stalled within the next few weeks.
 The foundations for the furnace have been started and the new parts for the engine rooms are now in the city. It is expected that this part of the work will be completed first The construction work is being handled by Master Mechanic Norris of Ensey, Ala, who formerly had charge of the furnaces of the Ten nessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company at that place.
 The capacity of the local furnace will be 150 tons per day It is the intention of the builders to make it a model fur mace in every detail. even though the

You have gathered from us your tactics. Your strategy is also German, and so is your artillery. Nearly all your doctors have studied in Germany. You have even initiated us by starting a. social democratic movement in Japan

 What is that?" the German chancellor was rash enough to inquire.

A 'LANTA, April 22.-( Especially
 A out in any wise prejudicing a case
 in which the decision hangs in the balance, it is not difficult to foretell that there is scarcely going to be any change made in the prevailing passenger rate in Georgia, which is three cents a mile.
 The railroad commission heard on Fri day the motion of Chairman Pope Brown to cut the rate from three to two cents. It is fair to state that, with the excep- ton of Chairman Brown, who made the motion and who thinks a two-cent rate would be a good thing all round, neither of the other commissioners have made up their minds with regard to the mat ter They have entered into it with a determination to give the whole question a fair consideration and they will not reach a conclusion until they have gone over the evidence, all of which is on one side, submitted by the railroads and rail- road employees, and briefs from several of the roads will not be in their hands for week or ten days yet.
 One of the strongest points made, per haps, hinges upon the authority given lHc ldliIOuu CuIlIlllSSlpn unutT lHe law creating it. In dealing with rates the commission is given power to fix just and reasonable rates," and no more. Though the hearing was extensively ad- vertised and general notice of 1t was given all over, the state, not a single individual appeared even to make tho assertion that the three-cent rate is un- just and unreasonable. and of course no evidence in support of that view was adduced. On the other hand. not only the railroad officials and employees, but travelling men and merchants in all parts of the state who the patrons of the railroads presented their protests and asked that no change be made in the pre- vailing rate. In other words, 1t would seem that the travelling public is willing to pay three cents a mile, if frst-class and up- -to-date service is given.
 The commission was put on notice by representatives of the railroads that if there was any evidence on the other side or any facts or figures which the com mission proposed to consider, in support of the theory that the three-cent rate Is unreasonable and unjust, they were en- titled to hear 1t and to be allowed to make answer to 1t. The commission in response to this gave no intimation what ever that it had anything up it's sleeve other than what was presented by the

MRS. ROOSEVELT.
The Presidents w :, Has Knowledge,
 GentIeness and Humor.

From Harper's Bazar.
 Mrs. Roosevelt is a wdfman of devout nature and conventionally religious habit In Washington she is a regular attendant at St. Johns Episcopal church-a fact which has caused It's share of tongue wagging. For the Presideat. as staunch- ly loyal to his traditions IS Mrs. Roose- welt to hers, attends Gracel church. This division of family worship has troubled certain minds until sermohs have actu- ally been delivered upon it. That the frank, open steadfastness of each to an early creed Is really a convincing tribute to the others gentleness and generosity, and an evidence of true unity of feel ing escapes these critics.
 In this matter. as in all the others Mrs Roosevelt is untroubled by outcry lf, in her busy life. she should undertake seriously to consider criticisms, then the twenty hours, none top long now. would fall utterly for the sum of her days activities. But she has knowledge. gentleness and humor, a trinity of vir- tues proof against the shafts of ensure She knows pictures and is tnmoved by the clamor of those who arrbign her at the bar of morality because she restores to it's place in the White House walls Watts beautiful Love and Death which a prudish din caused a former administration to banish to the Corcoran Art gallery. She knows society. and can bear with composure the objections to her well-ordered rule. She knows boys, and she can smile over the patriotic uproar that followed her removal of some old mahogany from her sons bedrooms and the substitution of iron and oak: vet she must have been a trifle amazed at first to discover that her wise provi- sion for the saving of national furniture should be regarded as the vandalism of a person with no feeling for antiques. She knows how to dress well. and can be amused at the reports of her parsimony or extravasance. as they alternately swing into circulation

The effigy of man made out of dough, as lifelike as possible and having inside distinct heart and all the entrails filled with a red fluid.

But more formidable devil with great horns and possessed of superior powers makes his appearance and takes the field. Whereupon a saint or an incarnation of Buddha himself goes to the rescue, sprays flour on the enemy, makes mystic signs and utters incanta- tions. The skeleton ghosts and the big field grovel before him and implore mercy. He graciously yields to their sup plications and allows them to partake of a saeramental meal. While they kneel before him he gives to each one of them a little flour 10 eat and drink out of 8 vessel of holy water.
