REMNANTS '
And a Remnant Sale in White Goods and Linens is always
an occasion of happy surprises. Things just right for this or
that garment that Summer demands both for yourself and
for the little folks.
There’s satisfaction indeed in economy of this sort. The
sort that makes you open the package when it comes to the
house with renewed enthusiasm to be about the Spring sewing.
We’ve changed the hour from 9 o’clock on this sale to 8:30
—days are getting longer now.
NOTE—You’ll find some Remnants marked “Linen” that
means ALL PURE LINEN, If it’s anything
marked it “Union”—we did this to help you
selections.

railroads for the railroad, commission
of Ohio, arrived In Atlanta Tuesday
night and is ready to begin the Inspec
tion of the 307 miles of the Georgia
railroad as soon as proper facilities
are placed to hand.
Mr. Jaekson was asked to accept the
appointment Immediately following the
final hearing on the Bowdre Phlnlxy
petition, but there was delay In se
curing hi* acceptance, duo to the fact
that he has been In Hot Springs for his
health for the past month.
Correspondence was conducted from
there, and Air. Jackson finally agreed
to undertake ths work. It Is under
stood that he will Inspect the 307 miles
of main and branch lines of the Georgia
road for 31 per mile and ■ expenses,
which is considered a very reaaonable
figure.
All expenses of the Inspection will be
borne by the lessors of the Georgia
road. The proposition was made by
them, and accepted because the com
mission had no fund to pay such ex'
pens*. «,

years of active railroad experience. He
has been section foreman, engineer
for thirteen years, and served In other
capacities. For six years he hat been

Inspection at once, and Wednesday
tnornlng he held a lonfe conference with
the commission. Efforts are being
made to have the Georgia railroad peo
ple place the necessary facilities at the
disposal of Mr. Jackson so he can be
gin his Inspection Thursday. He esti
mates that he calh make a very thor
ough Inspection In four days.
Chairman Hill, of ths railroad com
mission, conferred with President Ja
cob Phlnlsy, of the Georgia Railroad

A Are on wheels started Wedneaday
afternoon In the middle of Peachtree
street, opposite the residence of Dr. W.
H. Elkins, and brought the whole fire
department out for a chase down the
street.
A negro driving a delivery wagon of
theCarmlchael-Talman Furniture Com
pany waa complacently amoklng bis
pipe. A spark caught by a puff of
wind fall upon some Inflammable ma
terial In the wagon. In a twinkle It
watt In flames' and the driver waa
startled when a big volume of smoke
suddenly enveloped him.
"Gosh a mighty:" yelled the fright
ened coon. "Turn In de atahm."
And somebody did. With a clamor
and clatter, fire engines, hone wagon*,
trucks and Chief Cummings rushed to
the scene of conflagration. The Are
