ENGAGING YOUNG WOMAN
 SEES PASSENGER AGENTS

It was a good thing for the railroads of Birmingham yesterday that they belonged to a passenger association which con- trols the making of rates, for otherwise there would have been a miniature rate war on be.weer the Louisville and Nash vile, the Queen and Crescent route, the Southern and the Central of Georgia, and all on account of the desire of good looking young woman to go to New York
 First the attractive girl leaned over the counter of the Louisville and Nash vile office and told Bob Peirce what a good looking city ticket agent he was
 and then asked for a rate. He told her what the Louisville and Nashville would put her into New York for,s and she thanked iim demurely and said she would be back in a few minutes for a ticket
 Next she struck Bob Creagh, the young travelling passenger agent of the South err and of course he did the very best he could for her in the way of a rate, and she promised him to come back in

He could not do any better for her than the Louisville and Nashville in the way of rates, so she smiled at him,
 It happened that Travelling Passenger Agent Fell of the Central was out of the city, so the woman found Commercial Agent Cowan, but he was unable to do anything for her on the rail and water rate. The woman smiled and promised to come back and get ticket few min utes later.
 She told them all that she had plenty of time to spend getting all her arrange ments made before train time, and each agent was working last night at 8 o'clock to induce her to go over his line, but none of them could not do any thing in the way of rates as the local repre- sentatives gre confined to a regular rate sheet gotten out by the passenger as- socation.
