It’s not often that a train comes
mighty near leaving the president of
the road that rune It But a South

day of making President W. W. Finley
of that road feel Ilka a man who le
late.
President Finley boarded a Pullman
for Washington Just as the conductor
had his watch In hie hand and was
handing the engineer the sign to pull
out. Of course the ticket puncher
didn’t know that the elderly man hust

drawing room and leave the private
car behind.
Everybody thought the train would

Finley, evidently, tor he drove to the
Terminal and was hastily maklpg hie
way to the Pullman when the con
ductor signalled to pull out. Before
he had entered the car the train wae

To cover a deficiency In the mllitarj
fund of I10.000, arising from the rloti
In Atlanta and Macon, that amount will
be asked of the coming legislature.
Thla la the amount the two rlote coil
the state, and tha monay had to l>i
taken from tha funds appropriated es
pecially to bring the national guard u[
to the requirements of tho Dick bill.
Tha race riot In Atlanta and the
street car itrlke In Macon both proved
expensive, aa atate troopa had to re

relative cost of the 'two riots Is not
given, the Atlanta trouble probably cost
a great deal more than the Macon af
