stockholders in pernicious political
activities in every Southern State In

He llkened the L. and n. to the
New Haven road, declaring that the
same disregard shown to public SEN
timent in the East by the New Haven

In discussing his resolution, Senator
Lea said:
IF the L. and N. Railroad is no

performing the duties of a public
servant and not the functions of a
potentate, as it contended. it should
welcome and court this investigation
for it will be of the greatest advan-
tage to it and its stockholders. be-
cause it will remove what would 9TH
erwise be a popular misrepresentation
in the minds of the people of Tennes-
see If the l.. and N. Railroad has
been and is guilty OF the many
abuses, determinations and eXtor

investigation is necessary for the
people are entitled to know the facts
so their legislators, both State and
national, may be able to legislate in
diligently to the end that these
abuses may cease and the l.. and n

citizen.
This investigation means nothing
more or less than there should be
light on this question, and it turns
the pitiless light of publicity on the
ownership, methods and practices of
the L. and N. Railroad and its al
legged companies"

Little Facts and Fancies About
Well-known AtIantans.

Judge Andy" Calhoun isn't quite
so sure about the delights Of a farm
ers life since meeting a former ac-
quaintance from down Coketa way a
few days ago.
The judge hadn't seen this friend of
his early youth in many moons, and
the greeting W quite cordial.
Farming, Jim?" inquired the judge
"Yep!" said Jim. Making a pretty
fair success, guess, too"
"Ah, fne!" spoke up the judge.
There's nothing like the life on a
farm, the good, old ia shioned open
air way Of living, anyway, is there,
Jlm?' smiled the judge, putting Wig
orously at his pipe the while he
talked.

dogs, l guess, Judge" remarked jim,

1.-THE income tax" said Howard
Horace Graves, of the Kimball House,
is a beautiful thing. 1t is the only
tax ever heard Of that nine men
out OF every ten seem to approve. I
took a r'nce of paper and pencil last
night and undertook to figure out how
long it will be before that tax gives
me any worry. figured long and /
inquired close, but-well, after mid
night l was still figuring. I amuse
myself nowadays wondering how
many people who register at the hotel
will have to pay anything under this
new tax. My guess is that about one
tenth Of one ma. out of every hun
dred will get caught Maybe that is
why the tax is SO popular. So many
people have the laugh on the same
few persons"
THE language employed by the ne
groes of this country is picturesque"
said a travelling man at the Ansley
to-day, but nowhere is 1t more so, I
guess, than in Texarkana.

train there recently, and l wanted to

"'Yess, boss he said. You list

Seldom is more enthusiasm dis
played at public meeting than was
shown at the recent gathering of the
Spring street property owners who
are working to have that street re-
graded and paved. The fact that
Frank P. Rice, prominent capitalist,
got his words twisted in opening the
meeting is attributed to the general
excitement of the meeting. A literal
report Of his opening sentence is:
Gentlemen, when Napoleon came
back from Italy he said, There are no
Alps!'
There are no obstacles in the way
of the Spring street Improvement"

through all that summer he taught
her to play upon his violin. The warm
months were time of idleness at Lac
Balm, and Jan made the most of them
in his teaching of Melissa She learn
ed to read the books which he had used
at Fort Churchill, and by midsummer
she could read those which he had
used at York factory. At night they
wrote letters to each other and deliv-
cred them across the table in the cab
in. while Cummins looked on and
smoked. laughing happily at what they
read aloud to him.
One night. late enough in the season
for a fire to be cracking merrily in the
stove. Jan was reading one of these
letters when Melissa cried:
stop. Jan-stop therev'
Jan caught himself, and he blushed
nightly when he read the next lines:

That winter Jan was appointed post
hunter, and this gave him much time
at home, for meat was plentiful along
the edge of the Barrens. The two con-
tinued at their books until they came
to the end Of what Jan knew in them
After that, like searchers in strange
places, they felt their way onward,
slowly and with caution. During the
next summer they labored through all
the books which were in the little box
in the corner Of the cabin.
1t was Melissa who now played most
on the violin. One day she looked
curiOusly into the F-hole of the in
strument, and her pretty mouth puck

That same day he took the little

gave it another hiding place.
Every fiber of his being sang in JOY
full response as he watched Melissa
pass from childhood into young girl
hood. To him Melissa was growing
into everything that was beautiful.
She was his world. his life, and at
Post Lac Balm there was nothing to
come between the two. Jan noticed
that in her thirteenth year she could
barely stand under his outstretched
arm. The next year she had grown so
tall that she could not stand there at
all. Very soon she would be wo-
