Terrell, upon hla return to Atlanta today. For twelve hours the capital of Georgia was Involved In doubt and apprehension as to the safety of the chief executive of the state. Governor and Mrs. Terrell were on the east coast of Georgia and Florida, and were In the recent storm which swept the Peninsula and the Isle of Cuba, and for two days the governor's friends had not heard from him. , We cannot afford to let the governor and hla charm Ing.wlfe come back to Atlanta, after such an experience, without extending to them the geueral and undivided con gratulations of thp peoipe of Georgia upon their fortunate escape and upon their present safety. The governor has many friends beyond the pale of politics, and to these bis safety and prosperity Is some- thing more than'a mere civic consideration. Few men have greater charm In their personal and individual ro- latlons with men than the governor of Georgia. Ho ia , an admirable comrade, a capital story teller, an unselfish companion on a frolic or a march, and no man who has eyer been so fortunate as to spend with him a halcyon day of holfday Is likely to forget the genlsl glow of his comradeship or the charm of hts kindly manner. We have not always palled in the same current of opinion with the governor of Georgia, and we hive not hesitated when we differed with him to frankly say so. But we are at least too wise It we are not at last too old to permit political differences to check In any way the pleasant current of personal associations. And 10. with cordial pleasure both upon our own part and upon the part of many of The Georgian’s readers, wo express the pleasure which we all fee! In seeing Joseph M. Terrell, of Meriwether, safely back to his home and to bit high estate. Consuelo and Her Duke. • We are sorry that Conauelo Vanderbilt and her ducal husband have fallen upon a Anal difference. t Of all the American girls who have sold them selves to European titles within these twenty years wo like Consuelo best. It is not easy to Imagine that any full-blooded, clear- beaded American girl could ever find It In her heart to choose, through love, one of these spent nnd attenuated • princelings of an effete nobility In preference to the- fine, resolute and eplrlted men of her own country. And we take It for granted, simply and naturally, that without exception, the marriages of thlB type have been baaed upon, the material considerations, and tho social aspira tions which are tho life and breath of the class to which they belong. In this view the Vanderbilt girl Iks at least held herself highly, and has commanded the highest pre mium which European distinction has set against Amer ican money and American chajm The name of Marl borough la one of tho oldeet and noblest In Europe and the English realm haa no title that* was better worth tho beauty and fortune of an American heiress than that for which Conauelo'a mother schemed and traded with con summate (kill some ten years ago. The first was the only fault her countrymen have ever found with the young daughter of the Vanderbilts, She has reflected honor upon her race and country In every relation of her married life. Like a true, bravo American girl, she haa aaaumed her place In the English and- European courts simply, clearly and without either embarreasment or affectation. In tho dignity of virtue nnd of self-respect she haa nobly held her own, and baa com manded not only tho admiration but tho absolute ronpoct of the English court and of the English king and queen. She has been a loyal and always helpful wife. She haa been a good mother In the eye nnd Judgment of her world, and In all the garish gossip and unseemly scandal of the circles In .which she moved, this daughter of a demo cratic republic has been the lady untmpcached and tho woman unatalned by rumor or roport. We have been proud of Consuelo, Duchess of Marl borough—we Americans who cast nn occasional eye across the seas—and somehow we have It in our minds that the little woman whom we look upon aa higher and better than the average of her class, Is In trouble now and'In sorrow not of her own making or desert. We hold yet In this free republic to standards and to sentiment which does not permit us to even understand bow a nobleman of England could separate himself from a good and great woman because of disappointment with bar financial dowry* which he thoroughly and accurately estimated at hla marriage. If the Marlborough dukelet was a mere speculator, gambling on the death of Con- suelo’i father or hla failure to marry a second time, he was doubly unworthy of the American girl, who has shown herself from first to last to lie nobler In every way than this acton of Britain’s best. The sympathy of the EnglUh speaking race, and we think the pulse of the English court, Is with Vanderbilt's daughter. Whatever la good and notable In the Marlborough house within the decade haa been inspired or done by the wife. The husband left to himself or linked to a leaser woman and a larger fortune, will doubtless drift back to bis level among the hopelesB mediocrity of Eng lish dukes. We are glad to have Consuelo back again. She was always too good for her foreign environment. After all old Andrew Carnegie has tho sense and sound judgment on them all: „ "Better a coachman," said be tg hla eloping niece. A Board of Trade Needed. If the movement Inaugurated at the Dutch supper tendered by Mr. George W. Parrott on last Monday night to the business men of Atlanta, for the purpose of or- ganlxlng a cotton, stock, grain and petroleum exchange, proves succeasful, Mr. Parrott will hare done as much for the good of Atlanta, from a buatness standpoint, as any ■Ingle citizen of this period of our progress. It will be the stepping atone to other and greater things; and, while the proposed exchange la an absolute necessity. Its benefits will be small when compared with the beginning of business organizations In Atlanta. The organization of a Board of Trade will be the nat ural sequence of the dally meetings of our merchants. An organized board of trade haa been needed In Atlanta for many years. Our city la behind many others In this respect. We have been working every man for himself, to the detriment of Atlanta long enough, and not only oar own people, but people outside of Atlanta, have been kept In the dark as to the amount of business transacted. We have been overlooking one of the big gest advertising schemes ever offered us. Let us have a board of trade. Give the press statis tics. Let our own people know what we are doing. Out siders will be quick to see our business enterprise. The bankB have an organization. The Atlanta Clear ing House Association publishes figures dally. All of us know bow the banking business has grown. This asso ciation haa a session dally, each bank being represented by a clerk, and la presided over by a manager. Why not have a board of trade? The city press would gladly publish any and all statistics it would see fit to make public. Let the people have factB. They do not get them. , How many of our people know how many bales of cot ton are handled In Atlanta In a year? A prominent New York paper‘'placed last year's receipts at about 50,001) bales, when in fact 175,000 bales would have been more nearly correct. How many mules are bought and sold In a year In Atlanta? Our city claims to be third In the mu|e trade. Jobbers In flour tell us that an enormous amount of flour la handled In Atlanta. Corn, oata and hay are bought and sold by the car load. Hogs, cattle, sheep, meat and lard are sold. Olve the world statistics, give your prices and we will surely be successful. All these and many other things can be accomplished through a board of trade. Therefore, let ua have one. SOFT SNAP Leaves Prison For a Walk and Is Supplied With Dainties. The Study of the Problem. Our neighbor The Constitution, which so heartily Indorses Dr. Stirling's sensible suggestions ns to a sci entific study of the negro criminal, might just as easily and a little earlior have Indorsed exactly the same views when they were twice presented editorially In The Geor gian., On the day before the riot, and twice since then, The Georgian earnestly stated that rape was now seen to be not more a crime of race than of Individuals, and that we should now proceed to study this question scientific ally "as the experts study cholera and yellow fever—for the germs." We urged upon the officers of the law, the physicians In charge, and the sociological experts to collect from each and every criminal all possible data aa to color, edu cation, temperament, habits, association, drugs used, pre vious history, heredity, religious affiliation, etc., and to begin on the Individual criminal the study of the condi tions which had developed as a general passion the moat monstrous of human crimes. This suggestion ,was widely and strongly Indorsed by thoughtful men, and we are anxious now to see It pass from the realm of mere suggestion Into a line of tangible action. * To do this It requires some organisation to begin. Whereupon we respectfully present the matter to the attention of onr Atlanta Sociological 8oclety and trust It will find time and Inclination to give the matter some or ganized attention. Meanwhile,, Dr. Stirling's letter cotnalns some excel lent suggestions, and although neither the doctor nor The Constitution snw fit to Indorse the prior suggestion of The Georgian, It gives us pleasure In a broader spirit to In dorse both Dr. Stirling and The Constitution. It Is the Idea we are after, not the Initiative. What we want now Is not the credit but the collection of the facts in a connected way. After going over the suggestions originally made by Tho Georgian, Dr. Stirling offers this Interesting Informa tion, and comment; "In relation to all these questions and others there exists a wealth of evidence which It is hardly scientific to Ignore. There are for Instanco the ef fects of New Zealand's laws upon the Mnorls, who aro represented In parliament, not according to their numerical population, hut according tp other prin ciples; there nre the advancing negro races of FIJI; there Is tho recent government Investigation In South Africa upon the relations of the white nnd the colored populations; there are conditions in Jamaica, where assault upon a white woman by a negro Is unknown, although opportunity Is greater than here; there Is tho complete safety which ladles experi enced here before and their almost complete secu rity during the war; there are the conditions which exist in Liberia and also in San Domingo; an dthero are spots scattered all over the warmer parts of the world from which Information might be gathered and which would doubtless be glad to hear from us In re turn. In none of these are conditions precisely the same as here; but allowing for all that there remains sufficient similarity to make It possible that scientific comparison would well jutjlfy the trouble. The mere fact that such nn Inquiry was afloat nnd was work ing with the calm, unlmpassloned methods of scien tific investigation, would have a beneficial effect upon both races, while Its conclusions would doubtless be listened to with respectful attention and would have the result of settling at least some disputes at the same time that It certainly did not lower the charac ter of our polemics." It only needs now some organized interest In the mattlr. If the Sociological Society cannot take hold. It might at least start the machinery and set the movement astir. fronton. Mo., Oct. 24.—Pleading that he wished some books and papers from his trunk, J. Ralph Burton, former United States senator from Kansas, was permitted hy Sheriff Marshall to take a brief respite yesterday almost at the outset of his six months' term. He walked to his wife's boarding house and back to the Iron county jail. Aa Burton reached the street he saw his wife and little niece Juat returning from a drive. They accompanied him to the home of Dr. Smith, where Mrs. Burton Intends to board. After a short stay he returned to the jail. Burton's first day aa a Federal pris oner was lightened by visits from his wife, who brought meals she had pre pared. They were of a delicacy and abundance which contrasted strongly with the meals of other prisoners. A separate cell soon )vlM be given the former senator, who now has to share his quarters with James Wise, a con victed postoffice embezzler. Burton Intends to do much writing while In Jail. When released he In tends to return to his home In Abilene and renume his law practice. Burton took to his cell with him the Bible he read on the train nearly all the 1 from 8t. Louis. PRESIDEN1 BRUNSMAN'S ADDRESS TO CONVENTION A T PIEDMONT Tt/ESDA Y L ELECTION Of TRANSPORTATION CLUB ON TUESDAY, NOV, 25 THE MOCKING BIRO—And now comes The Mocking Bird, "A Magszine of Aspiration,” pub lished at -Vewnan, with Percy Wiggle as editor and maanger, and Mlgnon Hall as associate editor. And The Mocking Bird Is a very bright and at tractive publication. It Is well printed, and Its mat ter Is well written. There Is evidence of great carnestnoas, of poetic faith and hope In The Mocking Bird. It Is easy to see that It pulses upon each page Its name—'Aspiration." Mr. Wiggle har. been connected with newspaper work for some time In Xewnan. and If Indefatigable Industry and high purpose joined to earnest and tal ented endeavor will make a success, we feel sure that The Mocking Bird will deserve and should re ceive II On Monday evening, November 5, the annual meeting, barbecue lunch and' smoker of the Transportation Club of Atlanta will be held In the club rooms. At this time officers will submit their annual reports, changes In the consti tution will be considered and officers for the ensuing year will bo placed In nomination. The barbecue lunch and smoker will be served from 9 to 11:30 o'clock In the evening. On the Tuesday following the election of'officers will occur. Polls will be open from noon Tuesday to 11 o'clock In the evening. Officers to be elected are president, vice president, secretary and treasurer and four members of the governing committee. P. A. Wright and M. M. Ansley, of the governing committee, have re signed, necessitating the election of four members. Three nre to be elected for two years and one for oh® year. TWO CADETSHIPS OPEN FROM FIFTH DISTRICT Vacancies existing both at West Point and Annapolis from the Fifth congressltffial district, an examination for both places will be held at tho Boys' High School building In this city on January 12 by Major Slaton and his assistants. A few days ago Midshipman Cart Pickett, of Atlanta, was compelled to resign hla post on account of impaired eyesight. He had only one more year at the academy, and It Is unfortunate that he had to give up with the covet ed goal so near> All applicants for the naval or mili tary academy should notify Major Sla ton of their Intention to take the ex aminations. It Is necessary to take the physical examination before a Uni ted States surgeon at Fort McPherson. The following Is the address of President A. G. Brunaman, of the Car riage Builders' National Association, delivered at the opening session at Piedmont park Tuesday morning: We are assembled here this morn ing In thirty-fourth annual conven tion. Our position 1* unique and different from previous sessions In the fact that we meet as a body for the first time south of the Ohio river, In the land of Dixie. Our meeting Is further somewhat dif ferent than those held previously In the fact that we meet at a time and place with two kindred associations— one of them a wagon association, which Is certainly a vehicle and an Impor tant one. The other, a vehicle associa tion which we trust has grown suffi ciently to ascend to the heights of becoming part of our national body, I win not take your time this morn ing by going Into the details of our past history—that we are thirty-four years old, alive and hustling Is self- evident: that we are & worthy Insti tution and must have accomplished a purpose for which we were born—these are days of changing conditions, and had our charter members (some of whom we have the pleasure of having with us. but many of whom have gone to the great beyond or dropped out of the aggressive procession) foreseen the conditions of today, they probably would have palled In their undertak ing. As an association, changes have been made froth time to time to meet con ditions, and we as an association stand ready to change again and again ac cording to the demands of the times or new arising conditions. Not a Monopoly. We are not a monopoly or combina tion; we can not and do not presume to dictate to our members method or manner of operating their pjants or disposing of their product, but we do stand for social and business harmo ny, protection on common grounds such as freight, legislation and other mat ters which will be discussed In conven tion later. We could no doiibt extend the field nnd benefit our Industry by the Intro duction of by-laws that would enable the calling of special meetings, should occasion or demands of the Industry require It. * We, the carriage manufacturers, stand for the best Interests of the carriage trade, without menace to our brother on one side—the accessory ma terial man—and on the other side the dealer or distributor. We stand for advanced utilities, bet terment of labor and manufacturing conditions; In fact, for an enlightened, up-to-date Industry and modern meth ods. As an association, we can listen to, suggest and advise our members. We can bring them together for har mony and business, we can place be fore them every opportunity that trade conditions demand. Beyond this they must act as Individuals. Neither the manufacturer of the fin ished vehicle nor the producer of ac cessory parts has had a rosy path; looking back a few years you will find the "course" strewn with much wreck age. • Conditions Are Bettering. The accessory trades seem to be bet. terlng their condition to some extent, but the vehlclo maker ■ remains pretty much In the same rut. He at this time faceB enormous advances In cost of production, higher-priced material and naturally with general prosperity high er paid labor. He has been providing against these conditions for several years by adding a few acres of floor space to his fac tory, Increasing his output, doing all he could to avoid the ''rocks'' In sight, with the prospects of Anally striking destruction on the "reefs" of over production. During our meetings your attention will be brought to many matters of Importance—the report of Mr. Wilson, able chairman of the executive commit, tee. Report and occasionally a few words from our modest secretary and treas urer. A discussion of the hardwood condi tions by special committees. Hardwood Getting 8carce. This feature of our business Is somewhat alarming. I have been told that according to carefully compiled statistic^, that at the present rate of consumption the entire available supply of nardwood lumber will be exhausted In less than 30 years.. This probably will not affect you or me to any great extent, except that prices will keep soaring higher and higher, but we must provide today for conditions 34 years hence, as our pred ecessors provided for us 34 years ago, A report of our good roads commit tee. In fact, a general discussion on these lines—a discussion that Is of In terest to every man arvl woman here present, a subject that Is the malnte nance of our Industry. The Improvement,of roads, I am glad to eee, has been advancing with won derful strides during the past live years. Should It continue proportionately, tho vehicle Industry will.soon have no spe cial season except In the extreme North—good roads will enable the use of the buggy, rain or shine, winter or summer. Automobiles have come probably to stay. They are at least a harbinger of good roads. As to their competi tion and effect on our Industry, I will waive any opinion I may have and later we will listen to an address on the subject of automobiles by one of our members. Freight and Classification.—This is a very Important fnetor. It has been handled by our association in the past and must now because of enactment of new laws, receive more attention than ever before. The value of this branch isgbeyond estimate. Today while you are gathered here for business nnd pleasure there Is a gathering of representative railroad men at one of our large cities, con sidering the matter of vehicle clasal fleaflon. The C. B. N. A. Is represented there by apjmlnted members and by our own men thoroughly versed or. rail- road matters. Many pages of argument and data for exhibit have been prepared, in fact, a work Is going on that only large as sociations like ours can consistently make effective. You are not worrying about this meeting—why should you? It Is be ing cared for by the sinews you have provided. The Technical School. Our Technical School.—Only those who represent you on the executive committee realize the care given to this branch of our association. The trus tees can tell you best all about It, and, gentlemen, I do hope that some day or some time we can provide for this school so that It will be the pride of our Industry and a place for us to se cure our future assistants. It Is to be hoped that a live Car negie will develop amongst us—If not, then that a few philanthropists, desir ing to perpetuate their good deeds, will In departing leave behind them sub stantial mementos to be employed In Inoculating through this technical school designs and economics that are ever necessary. There are other committees—all Im portant, their reports are of. Interest to our trade and I earnestly ask the members to be on hand sharply at 10 a. m. during the few days we are to- pother. A large attendance Is necessary to accomplish much good. Let us have a full free discussion on all matters. I assure you all a fair Held and no favorites. _ . I have talked quite enough. There are others to be heard from and It Is not my wish or desire to extend this meeting to a point of Its being tire some to you. As to the Exhibits. Before concluding I must say a word about our accessory exhibits—tho en tertainment committee here has en deavored to hove their entertainments at such times not Interfering with bust ness. Many houses are represented by their chief executives and all by able repre. sentatlves. I am sure you will be glad to meet them and they to meet you. The variety of material, novelties, etc., are for your tqspectlon at ma chinery hall at the fair grounds. Ladles and gentlemen, I thank you for your presence here, especially do ] thank the ladles, and may their num ber be greater at each convention. I GOSSIP BY CHOLLY KNICKERBOCKER. New York, Oct. Mr-Presldent and Mrs. Roosevelt have resumed their dal. ly horseback riding. I learn from Wash. Ington, and If the spectatdrs who rally near the white house grounds to see them depart can be trusted, the cos. tumes of the horse-loving couple are a bit odd. The rides take place In the after- noon now and the Interested spectators marvel at the curious costumes for driving. They wear their riding suits *nd, as usual, are driven to the sub-’ urbs, where their horses await them preparatory to a long cross-country ride. Mrs. Roosevelt wore a small white sailor hat, covered by a veil, and a close-fitting black habit, with natty tan colored boots. 10 Today's New York mystery Is John D. Rockefeller. Why la he back m aoon? He left suddenly for Cleveland less than a week agp, and Is now back at Tarrytown. When he reached home hja only companion was his valet. The object of hla quick trip to Cleveland it unknown. Margaret Anglin, the actress, In the United States circuit court, told of Injuries she suffered In a railway ac- cldent. Miss Anglin asks 3(0,000 dam ages from the New York Central and Hudson River railroad. She told how she had driven a pair of ponies • under a viaduct and had been thrown out, breaking a Collar bone and otherwise Injuring herself The company’s lawyer asked her about the distance of her horses* noses from the engine. Miss Anglin pursed her lips, thought a second and repllsd: "The distance Is the distance from the steps to the railway, minus the distance between the horses' notes and the engine." "Exactly." replied the lawyer scratching his head,' trying to figure It out. Both the court and the Jury laughed, but the question was not re peated. Secretary Loeb Is back on the job again. He has been enjoying a vaca tion In Montana, and resumed his du ties at his desk In the white house office building yesterday. Assistant Secretary Foster, who had been acting during the secretary's absence, return, ed to his old desk, formerly occupied by Assistant Secretary Barnes, recent ly made postmaster ■ at Washington, and Assistant Secretary Latta. who oc. cupled Mr. Forster’s chair during the summer, went back to his desk In the adjoining office to preside ovsr the staff of stensgraphera and executive clerks.
