time, many newspapers have kept account
with the railroads and have paid for thei
transportation in advertising. Settle
ments were made mOnthly and if the rail
roads had nsed more advertising spac,
than they had granted transportation. the
/ difference was paid in cash. On the 9th
ler hand if more transportation had beer
issued by the railroa than the sum off
setting their advertising bil, This differ
ence was settled by the newspapers il
cash.
Now all this IS changed. Both the
railroads and the newspapers will have
to pay for what they get in cola cash, ex-
aetly in the same way as fhe rest Of he
travelling public.
That the railroads are very mach dis
turbed by these new conditions is evil
dent. This sudden taking away of the
pas privilege means that from now on all
business must be transacted on a regular
business foundation. 1t means that whers
juPges Of the United States courts have
been issued annual passes for themselves
and trip passes for the members Of lheir
families, letters must be written-or have
been-calling in this privilege and apoIog.
zing on the ground that the railroads
were in no way responsible for the new
bill, but on the costrary, were bitterly op.
posed to its passage from the start.
1t was also stated Yesterday that these
letters calling in free passes from editors
judges, municipal, state and federal ofici.
ais carried with them sincere regrets that
that this new Law reoess'tated the with
drawal Of these passes from those who
had proved their friendship to the rail
roads in many ways for many years.
It was also reported that these letters
called attention 10 the FACT thai under the
new law the penalty was the same for the
der'On using the flee pass in violation Of
the new act as it was for the official or
abroad issuing tn pass The Atlanta
Cons titution.

the rest Of the country, began upon new
era SO far as free passes and free transpor
tation is concerned and the death knell
ofspecial privileges was sounded.
This great change was ccasioned by the
new rate bill Of the interstate commerce
commission, which went into effect at
midnight last night.
Conflicting as many Of the provisions
Of the new bill may appear, according to
the testimony Of many saiIrOad experts,

law.

Gabriel Rossetti, poet and painter,
was once visited by an East Indian
prince, who said to him:
IL wish to give you commission to
paint IL portrait of my father"
as your father In LondonT asked
Rossetti.
"No. my father Is dead" replied the
Oriental.
Have you some photographs Of him
or any portrait!"
I'VE have no portraits Of him Of any
kind"
''IIOw can l paint portrait of him
then?" asked the artist. ut Is lmpossi
BILE. l could not think Of attempting
anything so absurd"
"Why Is 1t absurd" demanded the
prince, gravely. You paint pictures
Of Mary Magdalene and Circe and John
the Baptist, and yet you have never
seen any OF them. Why can you moi
paint my father"
The prince was so lnsistent that
Rossetti yielded in sheer desperation
He painted an Ideal head that was Ger.
talnly Oriental and also regal In Ia
bearing. The prince came In great state
to view It. When the canvas was un.
covered he looked 1T 1t steadily and
then burst into tears.
"How father has changed" he cried.

GREATEST NAVAL PAGEANT.

Best Part of Americas Navy Re-
viewed by the President.
The most imposing naval pageant
ever seen In American waters passed
in review recently before President
Roosevelt In Long Island sound. A
combined fleet Of sixty one naval YES
sells. representing every type Of ship In
use in the navy except a hospital ship
and a marine ship, greeted the Presi-
dent and vast throng Of sightseers on
hundreds Of yachts, excursion boats,
launches and rowbOats. There were
fOrty-three fighting ships, ranging from
the massive battleships. like the Rhode
Island, Of 10000 tons, costing $780,
600, and from the powerful and fast
armored cruiser, like the West Vir-
ginia, Of 1900 TONS costing $5,8OO,OO0,
down to the submarine Shark, Of 100
tons. costing probably $4,000. The
combined cost Of the ships, 20 far as
construction was concerned, was prob
ably more than $125.OOO.OOO.
There were 1925 men on the fleet,
including SOO officers. II each ship had
its full complement. and most of them
