NO FAVOR is SHOWN
ANY MORE BIG ROADS
Will Follow the Strict Sense Of
the Law.

ATLANTA, GA, Sept 3.-Low pass
enger rates are now in effect in the
state of Georgia. Whatever may be
their plans the railroads have obeyed
the law. While showing such obed-
fence to the dictates of the commits
sion, they will not go one fraction be-
You'd. In other words the letter of
the law is regarded, but not its
spirit in the least.
The roads have apparently drawn
the line at interstate and domination
rates. Everybody is paying the us
uaI three cents mile who departs on
an interstate journey
Others who usually have been get
ting the benefit, of combination rate
find that the roads have not prepared
their tariffs, and all they can procure
is the rate as laid down by the COM
mission for that particular road.
The roads are a unit in not selling
ticket beyond the boundary of the
state at the reduced rate. They do not
have to, and it follows, as a matter
of course, they will not do So
Not only that but interchangeable
mileage books are no longer any good
on the Western and Atlantic, the At
lanta and West Point, the Atlantic
Coast Line, and the Charleston and
Western Carolina and the Georgia
railroad They may, however, be us
ed on other roads.

FIFTEEN CENTS is
FIXED BY FARMERS
As Price at Which They Will
Sell Cotton.

ATLANTA, Sept 3.-The announce
ment from Little Rock that the farm
ers of the south, or to be more exact,
the Farmers National Union, will de-
mand Is cents for cotton, will be re-
ceived as good news throughout the
cotton growing sections. The body
which began its annual session to-
day will fix the minimum price at the
figure named. The membership of
the Union according to Pres. Charles
S. Barrett, is now above fifteen
hundred thousand, and their determi-
nation to hold cotton for Is cents
will mean a great deal for the plan
ters.
The Farmers National Union has
made rapid progress during the last
year, as will be shown by the reports
of the officers, and news from the
meeting will be awaited with con-
siderable interest.

RELIEF TO AMERICUS
BROUGHT BY RAIN
Temperature Took Terrible
Tumble
VERTEBRAE OF DR0UTH SHATTERED
Rain Comes at Last and crops Will
Be Benefited Blazing Heat of :
the Past Week finally
DiSpeIIed.
.ERTEBRAE OF DROUTH SHATTERED

Tortured, blistered, toasted and
roasted, Americas found relief in the
rain which came at noon yesterday
breaking at it did the drouth of two
weeks duration, the worst one of the
summer. For several days past the
temperature had reached near to the
hundred mark at midday, while to
this torture was added the sitting
dust, stirred at every street corner.
When the rain came yesterday there
was an immediate change of 20 de-
grees in temperature, the mercury
falling from 92 to ~ within one hour.
While the rain brings relief, and prob
Iy means the advent of cooler fall
weather, it will help the crops but
little. Cane, peas and potatoes will
be helped considerably, but the cotton
crop is all in from a growing stand
point, and only the bolls now upon
the stalk will amount to anything.

FAILED TO SEE POINT
BUT SAT UPON 1T
Virtue of a Sharp Tack in Res
toring Voice.

NEW YORK, Sept 3.-Many months
ago Edward Cox, of Williamstown,
N. J., suffered a stroke of paralysis
He recovered his physical strength,
but his vocal organs remained paraly-
zed and he was unable to speak a
word. A few days ago he sat on the
business end of a tack. He jumped
up, clapped his hands to the injured
portion of his anatomy and swore
roundly and loudly, in manner that
shocked all the neighbors within a
block. Since then he has been able
to talk as well as ever He attributes
his recovery entirely to the tack, pos
sibly assisted by the accompanying
outburst of profanity, and recommends
other dumb people to test the treat
ment.
