After hearing the bids read, and after much comment by the members of the commltteo and a speech by President Arkwright, of the Georgia Railway and Electric Company, It was decided to adjourn to 2; SO o'clock Saturday after noon, when the committee will take up with President Arkwright the question of lower rates to consumers. It was the sense of the committee that the bid of the Georgia Railway and Electric Company's bid waa acceptable, except for the fact that It does not fix r lower maximum rate to private con sumers. President Arkwright said he would confer with the committee of council as a whole ns to what the maximum rate should be, and would agree on a rate that he felt sure would be satis factory. ■ Councilman Longtno said both bids should be rejected on the ground that nolther waa low enough, and the city should build her own lighting plant to furnish her own lights and that of prl vate consumers. All the members of the committee agreed that the question of a lower maximum rate to consumers was para mount, and the meeting Saturday will be for tho purpose of hearing from •kwrlght ROYALTY PLANS VISIT TO PARIS By RAOUL DE 8AINT RENE. Paris, May 14.—The crop of crowned head* who are to vlatt Parts thla year Is to be rather above the average, much to delight of the Parisians, who. In spite of their re publicanism, are as fond of dlsplsy as their fathers during the Second Empire and who love royal personages even more than they love American tourists, which is saying - good deal. _. . Already we have hnd King Edward, who Is as popular as wheU ho was Prince_ of Wales, and. of course, old Peopold of Bel* glum, but he really does not count much, for oltboucb he speeds n great deal of money, he Is an object of general contempt, because he Is thought responsible for the unspeakable cruelties In tho Congo ••free State. % .

EAT Grape=Nuts “There’s a Reason” Constitution Changed in Several Important Details. ' An insurance board which will have complete charge of disputed claim* for death and disability was created at tho .morning session of the Brotherhood of Hallway Trainmen convention on Tues day. With the creation of this board the committee on claims will be abolished. This action was taken during the con sideration of tho report of the commit tee on constitution. This committee submitted Its report Monday afternoon, after the convention finished with .the report of the claims committee, and since that time each section of the re port hms been taken up for discussion and action. The changing of the constitution to create an Insurance board was a fea ture that has been under consideration for some time and It was no surprise to the delegates. In tact, the business of the Insurance branch of the organiza tion had bocome so great that It was found necessary to have a board to deal with all disputed claims. This new board will consist of seven members and will meet once a year and pass upon all claims In dispute.' Not only will this eliminate the claims com mittee and make all the hard work those. members have been doing un necessary. but It will take a great amount of work away from the con vention. The board will be an Important body and will have a considerable amount of power. The result will be that when the convention meets every two years, the work of handling disputed claims will have all been finished. In addition to making this change, the convention decided to add another vice-grand master, making five In all, but decided to abolish tho titles of first, second, third, fourth and fifth. The grand executive board waa en larged from three members to five, and It wa* also clothed with the power of a board of appeals. This Is an entirely new feature In 'the organization and In thla capacity the board will pa*s upon appeal* made from the decision of the grand master. Although two sessions nearly have been devoted to considering the. report of tHe committee on constitution, the convention will' not finish with this work for a day or two more In, all prob ability. The same matter wa* taken up Rt tho afternoon session on Tuesday. Tuesday night the visitors will be en tertained by- the local committee on entertainment at a-ball to.be given' at the Kimball In the convention hall. DID ADVERTISING ORIGINATE IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN? Chicago,' May 14.—Advertising: had Its beginning In the Garden of Eden, according to H. H. Bigelow, of St. Paul, one of the speakers at the monthly meeting of the Chicago Advertising Association last night. "Adam’s Interest 111 the apple Industry was aroused by Eve." he said. "When ehe persuaded him to taste the fruit the fact that It was her per sonal ac^ that caught his attention, demonstrates a fact that the world was a* long time In learning—that It Is personality that counts, and that a direct appeal to the customer Is necessary to successful advertising." SCHOOL GIRL WRITES STORY OF VISIT TO THE GEORGIAN Mary Kenny Is a very bright young pupil In the seventh ftrnde of Formwalt street school. She Is the daughter of Mrs. T. C. Jerome, of 208 South I'ryor street. She was with the other pupils of this school who visited The Georgian recently. Little Miss Kenny wbs so impressed with her visit aud the wonderful thlugs she that she set down some Impressions, which have come to The Georgian and are printed boro. The composition la her very owu, and appears Just ns she wrote It: The Making of a Newspaper. One bright day In April. WOT, a grot of light-hearted girls ana boys, chaperon. _ by their principal «nd teachers, left their beloved school rooms at Formwalt street school for a visit, by special Invitation, to the offices of. the great Southern news- PMjer. The Atlanta Georgian. They were cordially welcomed'by Mr. Brooks, of the staff, nnd were conducted to an upstairs room. In which numbers of typewriters clicked continuously. In the center of this room was placed a small platform, on which our kind In- •truetor, Mr, Brooks, stood, so as to l»e slightly raised above the heads of tho teachers nod children, that he might be better able to explain the process of mak- toff ■ dally newspaper successfully. This gentleman began by saying that the work for the day was beguu at about 7 o’clock. .The editor collects all of the news of the latter pajt.of the.day before and the events of tho day, up to time of going to press. Tho reporters are sent tti the principal parts of the city, such as the capltol, nnd others, to bring In all of the news that it Is possible to secure. ■The next work Is for the editor to re vise these pieces, and to find that they were. In some measure, true. If they prove to be satisfactory, they arc sent to he typewriters, where an extra la rnado. ie visitors were taken Into another room re, st s largo machine called n lino- -4 ••'. were made eonlea of these same pieces of news In lead letters, and placed In on Iron frame work, which la the also of the regular paper. The uext step Is made by taking a soft, pliable piece or cardboard and pressing It dowd* on the Iron frame until an Impres sion of all these words, Hues and spaces Is made. each given to separate uses. The room which we first visited wna dark and very warm. In the center of the room stood a large furnace at which an Immense tank of lead was heated until It became molten. A smooth Iron trough stood where the lead wos to flow out. The piece of card board. that I have beforo mentioned, was placed !o the bottom of the trough, nnd sixty-five pounds of molten lead was poured upou It. The trough was pressed up against an other hot piece of Iron that fitted it and caused It to form a sixteenth-inch mold, round, and cut In half. The Impressions on the cardboard much deeper Impression In the mole. In the room. Into which we weut uext. a much deeper Impression In the mold. In the room. Into which we weut the most important room yet visited, the press. • Enormous rolls of paper were in posi tion on top of the press, ready to bo pulled across by the mschlnery. In the bottom on rolls, were placed the molds, and be«lde them were large vessels of Ink, quantities ..._.Jy took up the Impresalou. The rblnery traveled at the rate of teu miles an hour. When they were taken up*stalrs in a little lift, which they called an elevator, to the mailing department. We’went next to the mailing room nnd watched them sealing and addressing and seudjug them out. As we came out. we saw the little "newsies*' waiting to go their routes. When we were leaving, each child re ceived hla nr her name In u little oblong piece of lend. In which the letters were In dented. ^ They bad shown us around the whole premises, nnd had bad everything cxplnluud perfectly. I think It wns one of the most amusing and Instructive things that has ever been done for the public school children, nnd ntu sure that Imth teseliers and pupils appreciated the favor fully.
