DoO' little there existed a feeling which passed mere friendship. On Tuesday morning Hon. James L.

Dr. Parks does not believe that hypnotism Is responsible for this Influence, If there Is such an Influence, os has been al leged, hut believes that the case might be classlfled as "contrary sexual In itlnct." ~ "There Is no scientific treatise on hypnotism," said Dr. Parks, "that would substantiate the theory In this sensational case which la now attract ing so much attention.

HO WDES MOINES EXPANDED WILL BE TOLD AT SMOKER A T ARAGON TUESDA Y NIGHT Visitors Invited to Tell How City Grew. "Den Moines does things.” That’s what that hustling, enterprls Ing bunch of business mep from the Iowa city have said since they have been In Atlanta to get the next conven tion of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, And they cAn deliver the goods. But what Is particularly Interesting to Atlanta at the present time Is that one of the first things Dea Moines did when It started out to be a great city of the middle West was to expand. It annexed surrounding suburbs, and as a result the people In the suburbs are happy and so are the folks who were not In th* suburbs. This expansion was commenced about ten years ago, when the four or five suburbs were annexed. Since that time the paved streets ‘have been ex tended to these suburb* and these same suburbs are now. right In town with the best of school facilities. One of the prominent Dea Moines men In town Is former Congressman Butler and at the smoker to be given Tuesday night, at th* Aragoit, by • the Chamber of Commerce, for the discus sion of Greater Atlanta, he will tell about one. of-the first things Des Moines did—expand. “There was some opposition at first,” says Mr. Butler, ’but after the city lim its were enlarged and the people who were annexed got the pubile schools, they were delighted. < Now, you can not find anybody who regret* the expan-, slon. The school feature was one of the most Important. We wanted It possible for the man working for a salary to live far enough out of the city to buy a home cheaply and at the same time have the advantages of the Des Molnea schools for the children. "The school* were the first thing gained by the annexed cltlsens and Im mediately afterward they had Are pro tection, water, paved streets and sew er*. Their taxes were Increased but lit- tie, and this Increase waa nothing com pared to the benefits they received. So great have these benefits become that everybody Is now glad that Pea Moines expanded.” At the present time Des Moines, al though not as large as Atlanta In pop ulation, occupies a space of nine miles by six miles and there are trolley lines and interurban lines ell over the city. There are 110 miles of paving, 140 miles of sewers, 00 miles of electric railways and Interurban lines to the north, south, east and west. “Not only did expansion help the peo ple,” continued Mr. "Butler, "but It was a big boost for Dea Moines. From a small city in one census, we Jumped to a large one end the people of the world saw we were growing. That brought more people and It kept us before the public.

Any Individual In Georgia has the right to compel any railroad to accept shipments to points within the state on stoves, under the rates promulgated In the. famous circular 309 of the Geor gia railroad commission. So decided the supreme court Tues day morning In the case of the South- , ern Railway Company vs. the Atlnnta j Stove Works. This definitely deter- , mines one Important point, at least, In the now celebrated light In the courts, which began In the summer of 1905. There Is still pending In the Federal court the Issue of the temporary In junction ngalnst the state ot Georgia, granted by Judge W. T. Newman. The j decision of tbe supreme court In tho I mandamus proceedings, brought by the Atlanta Stove Works, to compel the Southern railroad to accept a shipment. under the rate set forth In circular 309, I ts not affected by or dependent upon the Federal case. Stove People Win Out. The decision of the supreme court waa written by Justice Evans, and the court held that Inasmuch ns tho de fendant nvorretj that It declined to put Into effect the commission's order, tha actual tender of tho articles was not necessary, and denial that such wna not done failed to raise a defensive Issue of facts. It la held further that an attack on the unreasonableness of an Individual rate, without reference to Its relation to the whole body of rates, raised no defenslvo Issue of facts. Tho existence of the temporaiy Injunction In the Fed eral court stands' ns no bar to the peti tioner for prosecuting the remedy lying In a.mandamus. The Federal Injunction, In the Inte rim, affords no sufficient reason for staying mandamus proceedings or de nying tho Issuance of mandamus abso lute. Tills decision means a great deal to the stove-makers ot Georgia, as the rate under circular 309 Is very much lower than that now obtaining. oe, flITots AT CONFERENCE Hopes to See Great Revival of Religion Sweep This Country. j, Special to The Georgian.

Growth and Progress of the New South Ths Georgian records hers each day toms BY JOSEPH B. LIVELY. Activity Is to be noted, says The Southern Architect and Building News, In building operations In tome ot the Southern cities, statistics of which are given below. Other cities In the South have doubtless en joyed similar activity, but figures for these are not at hand. Building operations are generally reported good In all sections of the South, when It Is considered that at many points there Is a scarcity ot labor, dim- culty In securing material promptly, and prices are In a somewhat un settled state.
