MAKING MANY CHANGES IN HOLY CITY
Street Car Line to Circle Garden of
GethSemane. Jerusalem walls
Are to Be Pulled Down.

Even in Jerusalem the feeling of
respect for what is old is giving way
before the desire for modern con-
veniences. The Holy City is to be
lighted by electricity and street cars
are to circle about, starting from the
Jaffa gate and running to Bethlehem,
to the Mount of Olives, to Calvary.
The great wall is to be torn away,
except probably a few towers. Those
who live thousands of miles away
from Palestine are wont to think OF
it as it was 1900 years ago and to
deprecate any effort to change 1t.
even to having a plentiful supply OF
water. but those who live there can
not be expected to go without mod
ern lighting and transportation sys-
TENS on that account. 1t will not be
dissertation to build a street car line
so that tourists can see Jerusalem
for the Turkish equivalent of a nick
ell. To the reverent the Garden OF
Gethsemane and the rugged brow OF
Calvary will continue to be as holy
ground as they ever were.

COTTON REPORTS ARE CHANGED
Future Reports of Census Bureau
VIII Contain No Linters.

The future annual reports of the
census bureau, on the quantity of
cotton ginned, will not include the
linters in the total production for the
crop, but will relate only to lint cot
ton.
Director Harris of the census bu-
reau announced the order to become
effective March goth. The director
added, however, that information as
to the production Of linters will be
given in the foot note.
Director Harris said that this
change was made because of the
fact that the modern machinery SO
closely delinted the seed that the to-
tai quantity of linters each year was
increasing, while at the same time
the average quality of fiber was be-
ing lowered. This fact results, he
said, in the use of only small part,
if any linters as a substitute for lint
cotton.

TO PROBE PHONE RATES
RAILROAD COMMISSION TO MAKE
STATEWIDE INVESTIGATION.
That Body. Is Similar to the
Dawson Rate Case.

A dispatch from Atlanta says that
for the first time the Georgia rail-
road commission is going into minute
investigation of the question of tele-
phone rates in this state.
The issue arises in Columbus and
is before the commission on applica-
ton of the city of Columbus to COM
pei the Southern Bell Telephone Co..
to reduce its rates and improve its
service.
The controversy is similar to the
one in Dawson two or three years
ago, when the commission allowed
the local company to increase its
charges.
A few years ago the Southern Bell
bought another Columbus telephone
company, with an agreement with
city authorities as to the rates that
would be charged.
There was along and bitter fight,
the issue getting into the courts. I'm
til the legal issues in the courts had
been determined the railroad COM
mission declined to have anything to
do with the case. 1t was finally ad-
justed, the telephone company get
ting it's increases, which are now eff
fective. The city, however, says these
rates are too high.
There is an imposing array of le-
gal talent and telephone officials and
experts present at the hearing now
under way before the commission
and which is likely to continue the
balance of the week. The Southern
Bell is represented by General COun-
sci Hunt Chipley, Associate Counsel
H. E. w. Palmer and Special Counsel
w. w. Osborne. The city of Column
bus is represented by City Attorney
T. T. Miller and w A. Wimbish.

WORK SHOP IN The BOYS PRISON
State Prison Board Would Teach In
mates of RefOTmatOry at Milledge-
vile Useful Occupations.

ATLANTA.-With the idea of car
rving out further the provisions of
the state law regarding the boys re-
formatory at Milledgeville and fur
Their developing the usefulness of
that institution along the lines pre-
scribed the Georgia prison commits
sion is planning to take steps to in
troduce extensively the work of con-
structing chairs and similar mate
rials, thus adding a profitable branch
to the institution and at the same
time giving another means whereby
the inmates may learn a useful trade
that will make them self-supporting
when they are turned back into the
world.
All three members of the prison
commission, Messrs. R. E. Dawson,
T. E. Patterson and E. L. Rainey, are
in favor of the move, and if further
consideration confirms their present
opinions of the practicability of the
subject the new department will be
inaugurated.
The state law provides that the
prison commission may, in their dis
erection, establish and maintain in
connection with the institution a sys-
tenn of manual training and instruc-
ton in trades, and may create such
industries, productive or otherwise,
as are, in their opinion, to the best
advantage of the inmates.

TO STUDY PECAN DISEASES.
Government Has Located Station for
South Georgia i'm Townsville.

The Thomasyille Times-Enterprise
reports that Mr.. S. C. McMurran of
the United States department of agri-
culture will be in that city the latter
part of this month. Mr.. McMurran
comes as representative Of the
United States department of agri-
culture to study the diseases and at
fections of pecans in this part of the
country.
A temporary station is to be es-
tablished in Thomasville for that
purpose to be operated by the ma
tional government authorities, and
Mr.. McMurran will be located there.
He will make Thomasville headquar-
ters for the pecan section, but will
visit other sections of South Georgia
during the progress of his work.
That Thomasville has been select
ed by the government as the loca-
ton for this station is a high compli-
ment to the town.
