Strange TO say, the first real sleighing on
the Speedway brought out very few of the
habitues of the drive. The going was a
trifle heavy in the morning. but when the
sun had melted the snow a little there
was a splendid snow path for three miles
without a break
Although the Speedway was crowded in
the afternoon, only handful of the pa
raiders were known to the sidewalk bri-

SOUTHERN WILL
RUN PEACH TRAINS

Atlanta, May 26-(Special)-To insure
the prompt delivery of the luscious Geor-
gia peach to the markets OF the east ar
rangements have been made by the South
ern Railway company for the running OF
special peach trains out of Atlanta, to
leave shortly after midnight, just be-
hind passenger train No. IS, the United
States fast mail. The peach trains Will
be operated on regular passenger sched7
ules, and will reach Washington early
enough the next night to be delivered in
New York and other market points by
the eastern connections the following
morning. Schedules have been ar
ranged by the lines south of Atlanta by
which peaches will be delivered to the
Southern each night in time for the
special train. This service will be in
augurated as soon as the first car OF
peaches reaches Atlanta. At first other
urgent freight will b. hauled on these
special trains, but as soon as the season
really opens this will not be necessary,
and when the yield is at its height the
peach specials will be run out of Atlanta
IN seven and eight sections.
The service to be given this year will
be Identical with that of last year. the
growers being so we'll pleased that at
a joint meeting with their representatives
when the officials Of the company asked
for suggestions the reply was that they
had none to give, only asking that the
service of last year be repeated. Last
year the Southern handled "a per cent OF
the Georgia CROP and had only ono claim
for damages.
Georgia peach growers are expecting a
banner year, the estimate for this year
being 4OsS cars. The total movement OF
peaches from Georgia since 1904 has been
as follows: 1904 4007 cars; 1906, 1853 cars;
1906, 1858 cars; 1907, 1874 cars; 1908, 5771
cars; 1909, 1889 cars.

New Orleans, May 26-The increased
prices of nearly all commodities, includ-
ing muskrat skins, used principally in
women's fur coats and hats, have ap-
parently met with a redeeming feature in
Louisiana. Because such high prices
have been offered for the pelts of the
muskrats, 1t is declared by the state
board of engineers that these little ami
mails, whose disastrous burrowing into
the Mississippi river levee have often
played havoc, have apparently been
thinned out by hunters and that small
damage from their attacks has recently
been in evidence.
