being changed for the better with con-
siderable rapidity, says Edward T.
Hartman in Charities and Commons.
The statement that Berlin will have
no slums at any future time is based
on the fact that its building bylaws
are of such nature as to make slums
impossible. Berlin does not allow build
ing at the will of the builder and then
endeavor to prevent insanitary condi
lions through maintenance laws. This
is her great lesson to American cities.

nH, Beauty went forth for stroll one day.
Far out on the dusty road,
" (And light are the wings of a soul. they say
In quest of its loves abode).
The sun of the morn hung high o'erhead,
And bright were the hill and stream,
(But all of the world is Lie, It's said
When viewed in our early dream).
Not care was hers-not pain, It's told
Not even vain regret,
Yet she lived in the age of the reign OF Gold,
And thus were her sorrows met.
She heard on her Journey Bird, they say,
Which sang of the jewels glow;
Now this is the story I heard one day,
Far back in the long ago.
And Beauty was charmed by its guile, It's said,
When the songs of the Bird were DONE
And many--ah many mile she sped
Meath many moon and SUM-
And she burned with a wild desire, It's told,
And prayed to her God above,
But she yearned with the lustful fire OF old,
And laughed at the wounds OF Love!
A Heart she saw in the dust, which lay
Deep-cut by the mystic dart,
But she sang it the song of lust, they say
And chided the bleeding heart.
So Cupid at last drew near, It's said,
When all of its arrows fell,
Yet Beauty-she laughed at its tear, and fled {
In fear of its magic spell.
And Adonis came with prayer, It's told,
And kneIt at the beautys feet

small extent we have built
warships for other nations, but the
business has not amounted to much
and we may almost compute the total
output of our yards as the naval con-
struction of this country for sixteen
years. In 1907 the total tonnage
launched was 321,211, of which the out
put of this country was but 1880 tons
the lowest but three of the sixteen
years under consideration. And that
small tonnage was divided among five
ships, showing that the vessels were
small. Lloyd's table, from which these
figures are taken, deals only with
launchings, and in our case. as of
course in others, does not indicate the
actual tonnage under construction. But
all told there were 142 warships, big
and little, launched in the world last
year. of which we only launched five
little ones. Our largest output was in
1904, when we launched fourteen ships
aggregating 170,1S5 tons. Great Britain
of course leads every year in her out
put of warships, but as so much work
is done in her ship yards for other
countries, the tonnage launched does
not indicate her naval program, says
the San Francisco Chronicle.

CAR Of BEER
INTO ATLANTA
Druggist Used Amber Fluid
to Flavor His Soda
Fountain Drinks.

The Atlanta Journal says: E. M.
Roberts, a pharmacist and chemist,
residing at 1872 CORTLAND street,
was arrested by representatives of
the Atlanta police department Thurs
day afternoon, with Assistant Chief
Jett and Sergeant Lanford at their
head, and about eighty half barrels
Of beer found on his premises were
placed under seal by the police, to
be held pending the outcome of the
case preferred against their owner
for violation of the prohibition law
The police first became cOgniZant
of the matter through the receipt in
Atlanta, during the past week, of a
car load of beer, consisting of 120
half-barrels. The beer was traced to
Mr.. Roberts, and he was taken in
custody by the police Thursday after
noon.
The owner of the beer was max
ing no effort to conceal the fact that
he had the liquor in his possession,
and talked very frankly with the Off
GERS when they called on him. He
states that he has been using the
liquor to flavor hop ale, supposedly
soft drink which he has been en-
gagged in manufacturing since the
first OF the year His defense is that
he has violated the law in no way,
using his license to compound hop
ale with a very small quantity of
beer for favoring purposes.
A test case was entered against
Roberts and he was released under
a bond assessed by the police chief.
The matter will be given a hearing
in recorders court Friday morning.

Special to The, Journal.


Chicago, Jan. 3I.-That the battle
in the Illinois Central Company be-
tween the Fish and Hartman fac
| tons over the voting of the famous
2S3, 900 shares of stock held by the
Union Pacific and the Railroad Sc
curitfes Company is regarded as Of
the greatest Importance to the future
of the company is made more and
more evident today. Conferences
have been held both in New York and
Chicago by both factions to map out
future courses of action in case the
decision Of Judge Ball in the superior
court shall be adverse.
This decision is to be announced
about the middle of February, and,
according to the courts announce
ment, the books of the company
must be closed one day previous to
such announcement, and remain
closed until the annual meeting, set
for March 2, shall have been held.
II Adverse.
If the decision shall be adverse to
the Hartman side, Hartman and his
legal allies will turn every stone to
prevent the holding of the meeting
until the shares of stock can be voted.
Several conferences have been held
during the early part of the week in
New York, at which this decision has
been determined upon, and President
j. T. Harahan, who has been in at
tendance upon these conferences, has
acquiesced in the plans.
If the injunction procured by Mr.
Fish preventing the voting of the
shares should be made perpetual, the
Hartman side would find themselves
in a dilemma which would be series
for their future control of the road
They would have no opportunity to
dispose of the stock in question be-
tween the middle of February and
the annual meeting, and this fact, it is
claimed, would mean virtual dis
REIMBURSEMENT of the stock
Request Postponement.
Upon this ground the court is to be
to postpone the meeting
and then an appeal which will be
made, can be heard and determined
by the higher courts. In such a case
the Hartman faction would be in
power for year or two without the
holding of an annual" meeting.
The Fish party has been on the |
alert also, planning wnat action TO |
I0hO III case Dali uoClSIOu
should mean the dissolving of the in
junction, and the certainty of the
voting of the $4,000 shares by the
Hartman side,
While the plans of Mr.. Fish are

he will go as far as Hartman from |

power would mean the election of |

Should the stock be declared legal !

peal is settled. If this should not i
