WAS BR\AN; GAVE HIM A R’AW DEAL A dining car conductor on the Sea board Air Line Is now an humble and a chastened man. William Jhnnlngs Bryan, the great commoner, worked the miracle on the autocrat of the rail. And Mr. Bryan does not yet,know what a great serv ice he has rendered the traveling pub, lie In unconsciously breaking the au tocratlc spirit of the dining car czar. The Incident happened during the present week, while Mr. Bryan was traveling between Charlotte and Fay etteville, N. C. The Nebraskan board ed the train at Charlotte at sunrise. The air was sharp, and a suggestion of coming winter was In It. Mr. Bryan took his seat quietly in the day coach with the general public, although he could have had the comforts of a Pull man after reaching Monroe. Between Hamlet nnd Monroe, on the main line of the Seaboard, with tho train speeding along at a to-mile clip, the dining car was thrown open for breakfast. Mr. Bryan responded to the "first call” with a promptness that In dicated a line appetite. He wore a close-fitting akull-cap with a black bill to the front, making It easy to peel from the polished dome of tho man from Nebraska. This head- gear was not doffed aa Mr. Bryan sat at a tablo and scanned the menu with an expectant bearing. A trim, sleek young conductor In charge of the car looked with disap proving eye on the big man and his cap. After waiting a due length of time, he walked up and tapped the broad back of the wearer of the ob jectionable cap with his forefinger: "Please remove your cap. It Is not proper for guests of the dining car to wear hats nt their meals,” he said. "I beg your pardon," was the reply, “hut I have a slight cold, and aa the day la chill, I fear more cold If I do not wear ray cap.” With this gracious statement and apology the conductor withdrew, wear ing an expression of duty faithfully discharged. As he passed down the aisle a traveler stopped him. "Do you know the man to whom you hove been spooking up there?" he asked. No,” was the reply. "I have Just called him down about wearing his ip In the car, but he said he had n cold, ao I let It go. Who is the guy, anyway? Do you know him?" "I do not know him personally,” re plied the traveler, "but 1 have heard of him many time* and know hint by national reputation." ■Say, who Is he?" asked the conduc tor In n husky whisper, visions of a se. THAT REBATE Yes, some Life agents will rebate you. They have to. Rut the good busiuess man knows there is no profit in getting a “rake-off” for one year and thereafter paying an increased price for life. . That’s simply borrowing trouble. The Northwestern doesn’t allow rebates. No truly mutual does. Reasonable commissions to agents and one price to everybody is the only square way in Life Insurance. That’s what the Northwestern does, and that’s why it can, and does, pay the largest dividends. “GET RIGHT BEFORE YOU GET WRITTEN” R. J. GUINN, District Manager, Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Co., ' i 212-213 Candler Building, Atlanta, Ga. rlous blunder looming before him. "William Jennings Bryan, of Nebras ka," was the reply. "The h—1 you say," gasped the un happy official, staggering back. "Ain’t I the fresh boy? Just told him haughtl. ly to get^that lid off. That ain’t the worst of it, though. When he answered the first call for breakfast I thought him some big farmer or country poli tician. I had a new waiter, a raw, country coon, who had never served a dining table In his life. So I broke that negro In on the man who has twice been a candidate for the presidency of the United Htates, and Ib likely to be it again. Maybe I ain’t a fat-head." He went away quite unhappy. Sev eral times he nmde little starts toward Bryan as though he wanted to apologize. But he never quite got his nerve up to It. Presently Mr. Bryan arose, unconscious of the unhappiness he was causing the conductor, and re tired to the day co^ch, where he sat reading until he arrived at his desti nation. ’I guess I am ft goner,” moaned the conductor. ’Say, won’t Mr. Bryan think the Seaboard is giving him a h—1 of a ride. And won’t he think a deal of the service given him on this car! Say, If nothing more cornea of this, you may guess that this boy don’t Jump at conclusions about people trav eling In his car In the future. You can’t tell when you have somebody that amounts to something." As Mr. Bryan is r very democratic man, It Is, extremely doubtful If he gave the Incident a second thought. But he has reformed at least one autocrat of the dining car, which Is a deal In the way of reform.

CAS CO, WINNER IN TEST HEARING The first decialon of the Georgia rail, road commission affecting public mu nicipal utility corporations, over which authority was given by the newly en- I acted Candlor-Overstreet bill, was ren- I tiered Thursday afternoon when the I commission refused to require the At lanta Gas Light Company to furnish a slot meter and supply gas to h\ L. Ingraham. The decision was arrived at and rendered after an extended hearing and careful consideration of the facts ns submitted, as it sot a precedent and tested the reasonableness of tho rules of the edmpony. Mr. Ingraham had been a customer of the gas company and had become indebted to it In a sum In excess of $20, and had refused to pay. His meter was, therefore, removed. Later Mr. Ingraham gave three notes, agreeing to pay the old bill In monthly installments, whereupon the company placed a slot meter in his resilience. When the time came for Mr. Ingraham to pay the first of the three notes he refused, and his slot meter was removed. He instituted suit against the gas company in the sum of $5,000, and in addition went before tho railroad commission with a request to require the gas company to furnish him with gas. The decision of too railroad com mission wus rendered In the following language: "The commlslson Is of the opinion that, under the facts developed by the evidence In this case. It Is reasonable for said company to require either a bond or a deposit, as provided In Its rules, before the said company can be required to place a meter, cither of the ordinary kind or a slot meter, on the "Ordered. That the prayer of the petitioner be denied. By order of the board. (Signed) S. G. McLendon, hairman; George Montgomery, secre tary.” The right of a public utility corpora tion to require a deposit, and the rea- Honablenesf of the rules of the Atlanta Gas Light Oompany were questions In. I volved and brought out by this hear ing,* on which the commission had to i render a decision. The gas company was represented by I I Vice President P. 8. Arkwright and At- ‘ tomey Thod Hammond, while Mr. In graham was represented by Attorney (Thomas Goodwin. The suit for $5,000 'was brought through Attorney James L. Key. Special to The Georgian.

This Is Ills sixth visit to the Gate City of the South. He first came here when a member of congress,, and Atlanta' demonstrated then Its appreciation of the brilliant young Nebruskan, who was twice to be the nominee of his party—maybe thrice, who can say? Following the victory of William Mc Kinley, but with the country still thrill ing with that matchless "cross of gold and crown of thorns" climax of Bryan in the Chloogo convention, Captain "Bunch" McBee, of Portsmouth. Va., wired Mr. Bryan an offer of $50,090 for fifty lectures, which offer was accepted. Atlanta was named as the point for the first lecture. On December 23 Mr. Bryan came nnd spoke on "The Ancient Landmarks" In the Grand opera house. It was one of the largest and most brilliant audiences ever assembled hero to hear a lecture. Every seat In the great playhouse was filled and hun dreds stood throughout the lecture. While that audience appeared satis fied with the lecture, Mr. Bryan was not, and he promptly cancelled the re maining forty-nine dutes. That lec ture, In the light of latter-day devel opments. was a complete and yet tem- perute arraignment of twentieth cen tury evils In economic and political af fairs. It was unquestionably an essay of great strength, but It lacked the orator ical fervor and fire expected of the man who had mado the famous oration In Chicago. As a lecture there was no denying that It was a fiat failure. In stead of flowers of speech and brilliant sentences, the lecture was made up of figures and solid facts. At this lecture Mr. Bryan was intro duced by the late Judge Hal T. Lewis, who had seized the opportunity ami nominated the Nebraskan In Chlcag". Governor William Y. Atkinson was master of ceremonies. Tho social side of that first visit was particularly bril liant. A luncheon by the Yonng Men's Democratic League was fallowed by a reception at the executive mansion. Afterwards Mr. Bryan was entertained by the Fulton Club. Two years later Mr. Bryan passed through Atlanta and spoke In the hall of the house of representatives, which was packed to suffocation. On Sep tember 20 of last year Mr. Bryan spoke In the auditorium at Ponce DeLeon to a great audience. While the personnel of those In polit ical ascendency In Georgia has change) many times since that first memorable visit of Mr. Bryan, his popularity with and hold on the people remains undt- mlntshed. In fact, with increasing years and growth In statesmanship, Mr. Bry an today Is stronger, perhaps, than ever with the masses. Atlanta nnd Georgia always greets him with whole-hearted hospitality and listens to his words attentively, and believlngly, as a genera] thing.
