DESTROYS entering the sacred

for the privilege will henceforth find
a new rival in the field in the shape
of regular organized body which has

Hitherto this species of social pat

under the cloak of privacy. Occasion

of friendly relations and the financial
returns for services rendered have
been disguised as gifts.
The new organization purposes to
make regular business of it. Here is
an extract from the circular issued by
it:
For Americans, colonials, foreign
ers or others seeking to form good
social connections, intreductions ar
ranged. Parents abroad wishing to
afford their daughters the advantages
of a season in town, though unable to
accompany them to England, can rely
upon their being placed in the care Of
ladies of the best social standing, who
can offer every opportunity for a.

Ascot and Cowes weeks, combined
with introductions into the highest

This is only one form of activity
which the new association will display

GEORGIA'S LIST
Of PENSIONERS
STILL GROWING
NEARLY 1900 ON THE LIST
While $I,l46,OOO is Needed
to Pay Them

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. LIT really loks
as if the Georgia pension list had
reached a turning point, that unless
the Legislature extends it by further
enactment so that still other classes
may secure pensions. There will be
1891 soldiers and widows to draw
pensions next year and it will require
$1,146,000 to pay them, according to
Pension Commissioner J. w Lindsey,
who has just completed his estimate
for 1918.
This is more than $4,000 less than
was paid in pensions at the beginning
Of 1912. There were then 1896 PEN
sioners on the roll and they received
total of $1,193,360.
This year there were sos new appli-
cations for pensions, comparatively
small number. Figuring the normal
death rate among pensioners, Commits
sioner Linsey finds there will be 49,
99l to draw pensions next year.
The roll was materially increased by
the service pension bill, enacted sew
eral years ago and which added about
$4,000 year to the states pension
expense. But it looks now as If the
descending scale has been reached II
VIII depend, however on what the
Legislature does in the next wear or
TWO. There were several bills before
the last Legislature the enactment Of
which would have materially incrcas.
ed the pension rolls, but none of rbcm
got through.
Pension legislation is always prcar
resort OF the politician. and there i.
rarely Legislature but some bill
makes its appearance to pile up IN,
appropriation.
Inc pensions will be paid some tim
III January, probably along about tn
laVOer part Of the month. Taxes ar
pretty well in at that time and tn
state treasury is in better shape tbat
at any other period of the year

DID RAILROADS
INCREASE their
GROSS EARNINGS
REPORT ON GEORGIA ROADS
VIII Be Made Soon By Com.
mission 0

Atlanta, Ga, Dec 16.-The Railroad
Commission is busy figuring out the
abroad situation for the last year and
trying to get at just what were the
general results.
Some of the annual reports still are
iackiug but from those which have
come in so far the indications are that
while there was a substantial increase
in the gross earnings of nearly all the
railroads, there was a corresponding
incvrease n operating expense which
may have the effect of cutting down the
net earnings, at least in some instanc-
es, even below those of 1901.
The Southern Railway appears to
have made the best showing of any Of
the lines operating in Georgia. While
the Southerns operating expenses
were large in proportion than in the
previous year, there was enough left
to make a comfortagle and substantial
increase in the net earnings.
Not all the Georgia roas, however,
will make this showing and some of
the big ones have gone through the
year without an increase in net earn
ings; some Of them have fallen off
even.
1t will be around the first of the
year before the commission completes
its statement and the exact status is
known But this, in general, is about
the way the matter stands.
There are indications. too, that
freight traffic vii not be so heavy in
Georgia this year as last on account of
the tremendous drop in the bulk of the
cotton crop. There are factors which
will help mitigate this decrease Of traf-
fc, but they will not be sufficient to
overcome the loss occasioned by a diff
ference of 100000 bales in the cotton
crop.

Judgments

IF the Ty Cobb case leads to a better
system Of protection for ball players
against foul-mouthed towards who
occupy seats in the stands then Il
is well II happened. As the law Is.
OF course. Cobb and his fellow play
ers were legally in the wrong. But the
law should be changed somewhat, not 10
encourage ,fisticuffs. but TO discourage
occasion for them. The law compels a
ball player to stay on the diamond and
play ball and keep his mouth shut, so far
as spectators are concerned. No matter
what a spectator chooses to say to the
T ball player, the player may not say any
thing back. That regulation was fixed
because gentlemen desired to make base
ball clean. gentleman's game. Nobody
but a coward will take advantage OF
such a condition. II club owners and
umpires were more alert to throw out
these rubber-lunsed fans when they be-
come abusive II would help some The
idea is all wrong that paying ones ad-
mission to the game gives him the right
to taunt and abuse players. 1t is usually
the poorest fan. the one who knows least
about the game and who has never
learned the art Of losing, who causes
most Of the mischief. Good-natured
railery is pardonable. but 1t should stop
there. Ball players. we are told. must
learn to understand that being tainted
is part Of their profession. They do. but
ball players cannot be made to under
stand that becoming the butt of filthy
or abusive epithets is part of their busl-
ness. II is not right to ask a man to
forfeit his manliness in order to be
ball player. This scoundrel In the grand
stand and bleachers must be curbed.
