At Warrior you leave the mining sec- ton and are in the midst of ragged mountains. After your eyes get rest looking on the splendid heights and awe-inspiring gorges you suddely find yourself measuring broad level fields of corn and cotton. A few miles further on and you look across acres and acres of potatoes, strawberries and grapes.
 The homes of the people are neat and attractive. There are vines and shrub bery about the doors-ivy and morning glory wreath the broad porches and sum mer gardens.
 The scene is one of rustic peace and plenty. No danger turks about the fam fly hearthstone here as in the mining district through which you passed few moments ago.
 Across the Sand mountain plateau and through the beautiful town of Cullman, you speed through prosperous small farms where the very atmosphere breathes of comfort-g giving home life and the grace of honesr virtue shines from every door.

For 20 miles and more you are whisked through mining camps. The miners cot tages dot the hills and valleys. You get a glimpse now and then of the wives and children of the brave men who earn their bread toiling in the bowels of the earth.
 Ten miles out you pass the long, strag- gling camp of the Newcastle mines. You call to mind the strange history of the opening of this property.
 .The old South and North railroad had been completed to Blount Springs. Money gave out and business was at low ebb. A fight was on for the control of the struggling railroad property The pro motors wanted to continue in control and complete the road to Decatur, connect ing with the Louisville and Nashville.
 Chattanooga and other interests con trolling the Alabama Great Southern saw an opportunity in the apparently inevit- able failure of the South and North road to seize the property and join 1t with their line.
 The South and North needed tonnage. John T. Milner was one of the leading spirits in the railroad enterprise. He had some coal lands north of Birmingham. On them he opened the Newcastle mines for the purpose of providing tonnage for the young road.

Inspiring Landscape Between
 Birmingham and Decatur
DESCENT FROM PLATEAU
Tennessee Valley Country Is One of the Most Beautiful Stretches in the
 State--Incidents at
 Decatur
BY WALTER HARPER

Decatur, November o.-(Special. .)-To the man who looks below the skin of all things railroad trip is always full of interest.
 In my journeyings over the state I pass over the same route many times, but there is always the unfolding of some- thing new to facinate and interest.
 A new cross-country trail at the edge of the woods or across the hills awalSens mental vistas of rural strolls and neigh borly association. A new cottage on the brow of the hill suggests wedding ana a new family. You may not know any of these people, but you develop a fellow interest in them-if you look below the skin of things

Then you strike the incline. You did
 not realize that you were the plateau |of s mountain until you begin the spec
 tacular descent-crossing ravines on re-
 verse curves and hugging mountain sides
 as you glide down-into the broad, grand valley of the Tennessee.
 Then your train fairly frolics across the undulating country, though stretching
 fields of corn and cotton till you reach Decatur. There you charge cars for
 Huntsville or for Florence, the home of
 the next governor of Alabama. In Henry A Skegg's new union passen- ger station, one of the best and finest on the road, you take your place in a
 long line of men and women waiting tc buy tickets. One train is standing on the
 track ready to go and two more are about due.
 Everybody wants a ticket at once and the agent will sell but one at a time. He does not seem to be in hurry, either A woman at the head of the line buys a mileage book and then wants ticket to Richmond, Va. The agent takes dowr his route book and begins leisurely to add up the mileage.
 The train under the shed moves up a little for baggage and three men near the tail end of the line grab for their baggage and bolt. When the train stops they return to their places. One man is bold enough to ark the agent if the train will wait for him.
 There is no reply and half dozen other questions more or less tempered with
 gentleness. are fired at him. The agent does not even look up from his route book
 One or two impatient would-be passen- gers ask each other if the woman trying to buy a ticket round the world "The woman'' stand unmoved-she is evi- dently one of the F. r. v's.-and about that time the agent ends his search and draws the mileage for Richmond He is still taking his town sweet time"

The trip from Birmingham to Decatur consumes three hours. They are three hours crowded with shifting scenes of widely varied nature and many thrills of human interest.
 After passing out from the. forest. of smoking chimneys and grooming indus tries you strike the hills just now clothed Tn the royal mantle of gold and crimson The brooks refecting the deep azure of the autumn sky, runs still and clear.
 It is pleasing change from the murky dullness of the city.

After about 25 minutes. during which the silent official of the road serves every man with the desired evidence of trans- portation paid for with the aggravating suavity of dumb automaton. the window Is deserted and the agent, who was too slow to catch measles" takes seat and smiles to himself
 The train is still standing under the shed and the two others have not ar rived.
 The passengers, whose hurry is now over. are pacing up and down the plat form-mad because they were not left by the train.
 The agent smiles and you wish you could bump his head.
