BUYS A HUSBAND TO
WIN A FORTUNE.
Soon as Freed She Gave
Him Sweet Goodbye.

New York, October 17.-Tle New
York Herald prints the following dis
patch from Washington:
Wits the testimony of the presidents
of the New York Central, Penns5l-
vania ana Baltimore and Ohio rail
roads al before it, the Inter-Sta. e
Commerce Commission mas practically
made up its mind to allow, to some cx.
tent at least, tie advances in freight
rates proposed by these and other
roads in the Eastern part of the United
States. 1t win do so upon the ground
that immediate improvements to the
roads are necessary to maintain Their
efficiency and meet the demands of the
traffic and that money cannot be OBJ
-ained for these improvements without
an increase in rates.
From their own investigation of the
case and after listening to the tesri-
mony of Presidents w. c. Brown,
James McCrea and Daniel d. Wfilarl
the members of the commission have
virtually agreed that these improve
ments cannot be paid for out or sur
plus, unde present conditions. Oae
way of getting tie money is to take il
from the net earnings. The other IS
to raise it from the sale of bonds or
shorttime notes. 1t is taken for grant
ID that if the Improvements are to De
met from the net earnings of the roads
the rates will lave to be increased
"The showing that the roads have
made regarding the inc. ease in tae
cost of ordinary material used in rail
road operation and the big advances
wages to employees and the present
condition of their treasures have
driven this point home. The commls-
sion is also ready to accept the decia-
ration of the railroads that. unless
their capital stock is increased and a
good rate of interest paid on any
bonds they may wish to SELL. it will b.
impossible to market bonds or NOES
enough to meet tie expenses of The
contemplated Improvement This
brings the commission back to the
point where it started. Their must be
some increase in freight rates to per-
NIT the payment of this dividend m
terest."

HYMN WRITER NOW DOING
TIME IN PRISON
Author. OF "Just For Today" Disclosed
in Letter From 'sPen.'

Torontq Can, October 1--'Just
For Today" that beautiful hyrnr
throughout tile entire Christian worll
and generally believed to be anony-
nous, was penned by William Huckel
former British evangelist, now SER
ing a sentence in the provincial pen
itentfary for obtaining money und,
false pretenses.
Huckel has clearly established his
claim to tie authorship of the sacred
song in letter to the anglican arch
bishop of Ottawa in which he tells
of the poem being written after an opel
air meeting in Hyde Park, England, IN
1878, when an infidel audiece inter
rupted asking why Christians prayed
to God for daily bread, saying:
''Why not ask for years supply y
In reply, the evangelist told a story
of a little girl who, ON being asked
the same question replied; Because
we do not want stale bread; we
want fresh bread every day"
Upon reaching his home and think
ing about tEe incident Huckel com
posed leafJet entitled, Just For To-
day." including the verses which he
recited the following Sunday.

HIGH BROW PREDICTS
WE MAY BECOME A MONARCHY
New York Tribune.)

Prof Cady Eaton, of Yale, tonight
at New Haven predicted a possible
monarchy or breaking up of the
United States into small republics,
unless the country is purged of cen
tralization and everything that is o.
posed to the principles of the found
ers Of the republic.
THE people of the several sovereig ]
states are tired" he said, "of fnan-
cial system, imposed by the central
government, Which depriyes them of
the control of their own finances, pu,s
the money of THE country into the
bands of a single individual to be
moved and distributed as he pleases,
and ignores the differences in values
which necessarily exist in a country
of such vast geographical, climatic
and agricultural extremes.
1.-The whole system is based on 4
law witch, introduced as a tax is ut
a tax, as it yields no revenue, but is
an unconstitutional prohibition AZ
cepted at the time it was passed as a
war measure, it has been allowed 70
subsist and has never been brought
before the Supreme court for the al
judication of it's character Some
change should be effected whereby
laws may be declared unconstitutional
Before they have grown into the life
of the nation and large interests have
become involved in their retention
Though TIE establishment of an
empire in this country may not be
conceivable, the disruption of the
union into Independent republics is
conceivable, possible and to be fe1-
ed, if there be not great changes at

MONEY KEPT IN GEORGIA
IN WAY OF INSURANCE
Companies in This State
Are PrOspering.
Special Times Recorder

Atlantic, Ga, Oct. 17.-That sout.t
ern corporations continue to grow and
prosper is ablmaantly evidenced By
reports which have been made and
they have proved an interesting study
to business men and fnanciers who
advocate the patronage of home in
situations. Remarkable gains ara
shown by al tlese corporations, par
ticularly the life insurance companies
Some of these have accumulated as
sets which make them as strong,
not stronger than their northern ami
eastern competitors.
Within five years one Georgia COM
pany has accumulated $2,700,O00 of as
sets, thus heading hist of forty-fiye
companies most Of which have TAX N
from ten to forty years to accumulate
that amount of assets
The growtp of the southern life in
surance companies, or rather those III
Georgia, as the reports are obtained
from the state insurance department
show very clearly tHat the people are
awakening to the necessity of keep
ing their money at home.
If the millions upon millions that
the people of Georgia pay out in in.
surance premiums each year could be
kept in this state there would soon b
ample money here to caluy on all o.
the big improvements INCIDENT to the
development of the states resources
The spectacle of Georgians sending
their money out of the state and theI
borrowing it back at a good rate of in
terest would no longer be witnessed
