SUPREME COURT CHANGES

Atlanta, October H.-(Special. )-Tomor- row or "as nearly that day as possible" all of the railroads of the state must have in the possession of the railroad commis- sion full list of all the free passes which were issued and used upon their lines dur ing the month of September
 The first general order issued by the railroad commission was this one calling upon all lines in the state to furnish a list of free passes issued and used, and what they were issued for. The Sea board Air Line is the only large system in the state which has yet compiled with the order and it's list is now on file with the commission. Reports have also been received from 8 number of the short lines in the state and others are expected in the next few days. Chairman McLendon thinks by the latter part of this week all the roads will have filed this free-pass statement.
 Present indications are that the free pass lists will not be made public. Chair man McLendon stated that 1t is a serious question as to whether the commission will give out the lists for publication. There are instances, 1t is stated, in which persons receive free passes legitimatey and wherein it might injure them in some mission, however, is desirous of having this information upon file in it's office for reference.

Demurraae Rules.

The railroad commission is figuring on deciding the question of demurrage r'iies this week if possible. Some doubt has been experienced as to whether the com mission will make any changes at all in it's present rules. One member of the commission stated he thought they were good enough, and covered practically every phase of the question. It Is prob able, however, that hereafter the action of the commission in approving a demur- rage claim filed by shipper will mean a good deal more than has been the case heretofore. Up to the enactment of the new law the commission could only ap- prove a demurrage claim, and then if the to court unless the railroad was willing to pay, and it rarely ever was. Under the new law if the commission orders the payment of a demurrage claim by a ship per, 1t Is said the railroad company will be liable to a penalty if it fails to make payment within the time specified. The railroad companies dispute this point. holding that they cannot be penalized for failure or refusal to pay debt, and that a claim efor demurrage amounts to no more than an ordinary debt, to enforce the collection of which suit has to be brought in court. This would open up the whole question of reciprocal demur- rage. and make it question for the courts to pass on. There is no doubt 1t will have to run the samut of the courts before any final basis Is reached.

A Wise Answer.

It takes but an ordinary man to re-
turn an angry answer to an insult.
The extraordinary man is he who, I'M
der such circumstances, holds himself
50 we'll under control that he controls
his adversary also. Persia once pos
SeSSed such man and was clear sight
ed enough to make him a judge. He
was the chief judge of Bagdad in the
reign of Caliph Hadee. and his name
wise man, for he knew his own de-
ficiencies and was actually sometimes
in doubt as to whether he possessed
sufficient wisdom to give a just de-
cision in cases peculiarly shrouded In
mystery 1t is related of him that on
one occasion, after patient investiga-
ton of facts, he decided that he had
not sufficient knowledge to pronounce
On the case before him. There was
in his presence pert courtier, one Of
those men who take long to learn that
wisdom and impudence are not closely
related.
Pray, do you expect that the caliph
is to pay you for ignorance?" he
asked, hoping to place the judge at a
disadvantage.
Il do not" was the mild reply
The caliph pays me, and pays me
well, for what do know. Were he to
attempt to pay me for what do not
know the treasures of his empire

An effort is being made to have the
business men of the city declare half
holiday on the afternoon of Tuesday,
October 8, so that their employees can
have an opportunity Of seeing the Gin
cinnati Reds play the Richmond team
Richmond is a hot bet of Cincinnati
rooters and all the fans would appre-
ciate an opportunity Of seeing the fam
GUS Reds in Action at Athletic park.
Manager Jessup will circulate a paper
among tne business men of this city
which reads as follows:
The undersigned business men CT
Richmond, believing that the interest
in the national game is such that few
hours during one afternoon of the sea
son may be given to our employees %
witness a contest. hereby agree to
make Tuesday afternoon, Octber s. 4
holiday between the hours of 3 and
$40 O'Clock, in order that our en-
ployees may witness the contest be
tween the Cincinnati National league
team and the Richmond team"
1t is expected that a large number of
business men will sign this agreement.
Manager Jessup has gathered together
a splendid aggregation of ball players
and the team deserves the support Of
the business men Of this city, nearly all
of whom are staunch supporters of the
national game. The cost of bringing
the Reds here is considerable and I'M
less the fans support the team they
will lose money on the game.

cd Social Perfection.
According to Plato. who was the
first 10 put the story on record, having
heard it from the Egyptian priests, At
lantis was an island in the Atlantic
ocean over against the pillars of Her
cules." 1t was larger than Asia and
Africa taken together and 5000 years
before his time was densely peopled by
Il race rich, great and powerful. The do
minton extended over the greater part
of Africa and Europe, and their con
quering progress was finally checked
only by the united resistance of the
Athenians and other Greeks.
In the course of time this great peO-
pie, this powerful nation, forgot its
greatness and its power and turned
to wickedness and sin. Then there
came an earthquake. which lasted a
day and q night and was followed by
an inundation of the sea. After that
nothing but slime and shoals remained
to mark the spot where Atlantis had
fourshed.
This is the romantic story as told
y Plato. AS we have said, he got 1t
from the Egyptian priests. Where did
the priests get it? Was it purely i'm
aginary, or was it founded, as some
Of the stories of mythology are, upon
4 thin foundation Of fact?
On this point both the ancient and
the modern writers have different
views. Some suppose that the exist
cnce of the island was really believed
in because the Phoenicians may have
visited the Canary islands or the
Azores; that the story of Atlantis
grew out OF their possible discovery
Others think that it is the expression
Of a vague belief by the ancients in
the existence of the western hemi-
sphere.
So far as the origin of the story
goes, we shall never perhaps know
more than we do now, but we have fol-
all time the beauty of the story itself
as showing what the poets of an
tiquity conceived to be the ideal con-
dition of the human race.
According TO these ancient writer's
Atlantis was one of the most produc
tive countries in the world. Its nat
ural resources were unbounded. Ev
erything that could add to the pleasure
! and comfort of men was there in pro
| fusion-grain, wine, delicious fruit
| metals of various kinds, great forests
| fertile plains, pleasure grounds, springs
and rivers.
The island was divided into ter
| kingdoms, each wholly independent OF
! the other, but bound by the common
| ties Of noble purposes and mutual gooC
will. Commerce fiourished as it die
nowhere else in the world, it's harbor:
receiving the products Of every othel
| known country. There were large an(
| populous cities rich in architectural eff
| feet and embellished with the mos
| beautiful works of art. Its village;
were also rich and thriving, and it
fields were under the most skillful ant
| profitable cultivation.
This was Atlantis as the old poet
pictured it. the ideal land where mel
had reached the ultimate development
of social and general government
