-General Shatter on Fat Men.
Weighing scarcely less, if not more,
than four hundred pounds, Shatter
had a profound aversion for fat men,
either as enlisted men or officers.
“They’re no account for soldiering,”
he would bluster in his tremendous
basso. “They pant, they wheeze, they
snort, they choke, tney grunt, they
groan; they waddle, they slouch
through the world. Not a particle of
good on earth, fat soldiers—would
not have one of ’em around if I could
help it.”
“Er—but—er—you would not exact¬
ly—er—call yourself slight, would you,
colonel?” a venturesome major once
asked Shafter after one of these out¬
bursts.
“Slight? No!” Shafter thundered
in reply. “H—11 no! I’ve been a fat,
blobby old nuisance ever since the
day 1 tipped the beam at over two
hundred pounds, and right then I
ought to’ve been courtmartialled and
cashiered for outrageous and mali¬

PERSONALITY OF IDA a A. TELL.
The Secret of This Woman Histor¬
ian’? Success.
Accompanying this article is the
latest and a very good picture of Miss
Ida Tarbell, the American historian.
Miss Tarbell, though a lifelong stu¬
dent, has little of the appearance of
the bookworm. There is a nyirry
twinkle in the brown eyes, which re¬
flects a keen sense of humor. Her
dark hair is worn pompadour style
above a broad, thoughtful brow. Hers
are clear-cut features, the mouth

showing determination and the chin
being well' molded. Above medium
height, with a dignified carriage, Miss
Tarbell is a figure to attract attention
in any assemblage.
Few people possess greater powers
of discrimination and a clearer grasp,
it is said, than does Miss Tarbell.
She believes in specializing, and has
concentrated her efforts in literary
work along historical lines. In this
sort of thing she has proved herself
an expert.
Miss Tarbell is a native of Penn¬
sylvania. She was born in the oil
regions, and was, so to speak,
“soaked in oil,” so that when the
time came to write on the timely sub¬
ject of the history of oil production
manipulation, she had a lifelong ex¬
perience to draw’ from and unique
sources of information. A foreign
education has helped in giving the
indefinable touch of culture to a
strong, womanly personality, and
Miss Tarbell stands to-day in the
front rank of the great host of Amer¬
ican women writers.

“Is this Lawyer Sharpley?” asked
the caller, who appeared with a big
lump on his jaw. The man in the
swivel chair admitted that he was
Mr. Sharpley, and also that he saw
the bump.
“Yes, it is quite noticeable,” said
the caller, with a cheerful smile. “I
got it a couple of days ago, while I
was stepping on a street car. The
motorman started too soon, and he
made me hit my jaw against the side
of the car. I thought at first that it
had broken the bone, but it hadn’t
quite. It hurt me awfully, though,
and I want you to bring suit against
the company for damages.”
“I am very busy just now,” said
the lawyer, “but I can take it up for
you in the course of three or four
days.”
“That won’t do at all.”
“Why not?”
“Because,” answered the caller,
hesitatingly, “that might be too late.
The lump is getting smaller every
day.” j
New Type of Railroad Car. !
The tendency in the construction ’
of modern railroad equipment is to
design cars which are absolutely fire¬
proof. Statistics prove that more [
lives are lost in the fires -which in¬
evitably road than follow serious wrecks caused on by the the j j

collision. Railroads in every part of I
the United States are at present ex- ,
perimenting with passenger coaches ■
of fireproof construction, and are
building no more of the old wooden ;
type. The majority of these new fire- ;
proof cars have been of steel con- >
struction throughout, with the ex
ception, of course, of the seats. It
has been found that this is the ideal ■
material. The one disadvantage is j !
in the fact that this type of car re
tains heat to a great extent, and the |
problem has narrowed down to a sue- I
cessfnl method of ventilation. One
of the most recent devices for over¬
coming this fault is shown in the car
here illustrated. This car is covered
with a removable hood, which is sup¬
ported over the car, a space inter¬
vening between tlie hood and the top j
and sides of the car. This is claimed

IMMIGRATION SOCIETY
Of Stats of Georgia is Now Ready for
Business—Will Co-Operate With
Commissioner Hudson.
At an important meeting of the di¬
rectors of the Georgia Immigration
Association, held Friday in the offices
of the chamber of commerce at At¬
lanta, it was decided that Georgia
has every necessary authority, under
the l’ecent decision of Commissioner
Strauss of the department of com
merce and labor to proceed with the
work of bringing a desirable class
of immigrants to Georgia.
Following this conclusion, active
steps were taken to co-operate with
Commissioner of Agriculture T. G.
Hudson, who is a:i ex-officio commis¬
sioner of immigration for Georgia, in
pushing the work.
The recent decision of Commission¬
er Srtauss of the department of com¬
merce and labor in the South Caro¬
lina case was read and its legal bear
ing was considered.
It was resolved by the directors to
tender to the governor and commis¬
sioner of agriculture the services of
the association in co-operating with
the state authorities in every legal
way possible in furthering the work

migrants for Georgia.
(Biy appointment, following this
meeting, the directors of the associa¬
tion called on Governor Terrell and
Commissioner Hudson at the state
capitol, and noth of these expressed
themselves in hearty favor of desir¬
able immigration. They gladly accept¬
ed the offer of co-operation from the
association and Mr. Hudson stated to
the directors that he, as commission¬
er of immigration, would himself
lake full charge and direction of the
movement, would devote his every ef¬
fort and energy to securing for the
state the very best class of immi¬
grants to be had, and said his ef¬
forts would be directed especially to
England, Scotland, Ireland, Norway,
Sweden and Germany.
Mr. Hudson said he would expect
the association to co-operate with
him in locating the immigrants when
they arrived in such manner as would
be for the best interests of the state
and the immigrants themselves.
James A. Strachari of Atlanta, who
is now in Scotland, under the dlrec
tilon of Mr. Mr. Hudson, has an immi
gration movement well organized, and
it is hoped he will be able within the
next sixty days to bring over a large
number of Scottish farmers,
The immigrants which Mr. Straehan
secures will be brought to Savannah,
anc j immigrants which the stare
may hereafter bring over will be
brought through that port.
Mr. Hudson, who attended the meet¬
ing from Rome, and who has already
securP<1 a number of immigrants for
that city, will he made a deputy com¬
missioner and sent to Norway and
Sweden to push the work there.
In addition a man will be chosen
within the next few days to go to Gei
matiy on a similar errand, and he
likewise will be armed with a commis¬
sion from Commissioner Hudson.
A state immigration convention will
be held some time in the near fu¬
ture. arrangements for which will be
made at a called meeting of the direc¬
tors.

Aside from being the head of the
Pennsylvania railroad Mr. Cassatt was
president of six other companies and
a director in twenty-three concerns
principally transportation companies,

inspectors will be kept busy buying
samples in the open market to be
tested and analyzed.

REPORT ANENT RIOT .
Made Public By Committee
of Atlanta Citizens,
FACTS ARE SET FORTH
Ten Negroes and Two White Men
Were Killed, While Sixty Negroes
and Te n Whites Were Wound¬
ed—Name of City Crucified.
The committee appointed in Atlan¬
ta some weeks ago to disburse funds
for the relief of the victims of the
September riot has finished its labors'
and submitted a report. The findings
of the committee contain some very
sensational features, and words are
not minced in speaking of the lawless
mob that “crucified Atlanta in the
eyes of the world.” The committee
found that twelve persons were killed
and seventy wounded daring the riot.
Of the w’ounded, ten were white and
sixty negroes. Among the victims
there was not a single vagrant, but
all were working and supporting fam¬
ilies. To the murders, states the com
raittee, robberies were added, and
“men and women were treated with
unspeakable brutality.” . The declara¬
tion is made that, several hundred
•murderers and would-be murderers
are now at large in the city. The con¬
tributions amounted to $4,123. The re¬
port states in detail how this sum
was disbursed, and continues:
“In connection with this statement
of disbursements we think it our duty
to call attention to some of the facts
which have come to light during our
investigations.
“Leaving out the Brownsville cases,
where a number of persons charged
with complicity in the killing of Po¬
liceman Heard, q^e out cn their own
bonds, the following facts are true
beyond question:
“ 1 Among the victims of the mob
.
there was not a single vagrant.
“2. They were earning wages in
useful’ work up to the time of the
riot.
“3. They were supporting them
selves and their families or depend¬
ent relatives.
‘ 4. Most of the dead left small chil¬
dren and widows, mothers or sisters,
with practically no means and very
small earning capacity.
“5. The wounded lost from one to
eight weeks’ time at 50 cents to $4 a
day each.
“0. About seventy persons were
wounded, and among those there was
an immense amount of suffering. In
some cases it was prolonged and ex¬
cruciating pain.
“7. Many uf the wounded are dis¬
figured. and several are permanently
disabled.
“ 8 . Most of them were in bumble
circumstances, but they were honest,
industrious and law-abiding citizens
and useful members of society.
“9. These statements are true of
both white and colored.
“10. Of the wounded ten are whits
and sixty are colored. Of the dead
two are white and ten are colored,
two female and ten male. This in¬
cludes three killed at Brownsville.
“ 11 Wild rumors of a larger num¬
.
ber killed have no foundation that
we can discover. As the city was
paying the funeral expenses of vic¬
tims, and relief was given their fam¬
ilies, they had ever motive to make
known their loss.
“ 12 . Two persons reported as vic¬
tims of the riot had no connection
with it.
“13. As twelve persons were killed
and seventy were murderously as¬
saulted and as by all accounts a num¬
ber took part in each assault, it. is
clear that several hundred murderers
or would-be murderers are at large
in this community.
“14. Although less than three
months have passed since the riot,
events have already demonstrated that
the slaughter of the innocent does
not deter the criminal class from com¬
mitting more crime. Rape and robbe¬
ry have been committed in the city
and suburbs during that time.
“in conclusion, we call attention to
the fact that up to this time Atlanta
has been a law-abiding city and crim¬
inals of all kinds, with a single ex¬
ception, had been punished by legal
methods.
“Considering this record of a law
abiding community, it is amazing that
the things we have recited could have
happened in Atlanta, and that the
small minority which constitutes the
tough element was allowed to cruci¬
fy this community in the eyes of the
world, and shock the moral sense of
our own people.”
HOUSEKEEPERS FEAR SERVANTS
Families in Houston, Texas, Dispers
ing With Colored Help.
A supposed attempt to assassinate
Mrs. T. H. McGregor, the wife of
Representative-elect McGregor and the
announcement that members of the
family of F. Charles Hume had been
poisoned has led many Houston, Tex¬
as, householders to discharge thei*
negro servants.
