Atlanta railroad freight offices to- I day received notices that the move- j men* of freight, tied up by the flood, j Southward from the important ship ping points along the Ohio River, in- | eluding Cincinnati, has begun, and that within a week all trains will be running on schedule time. At the offices of the Southern it was stated that more than 200 cars of freight consigned to Atlanta proper, held at Cincinnati and other points by the flood, will be in the local yards within a week or ten days. Twenty of them came in yesterday and to-day. The movement of freight out of Cincinnati across the Ohio River ; s slow, but is being hastened as fast as repairs can be made. Freight is mov ing out of Douisville and St. Douis for Southern points, however, on schedule time. Statements similar to thi*i were made at the offices of other railroads entering Atlanta. It is estimated that the flood held back about 800 cars of freight consigned to business houses in Atlanta and vicinity. The wholesale grain dealers* say there is less grain in the city than there has been for years, and the shortage, occasioned by inability to get shipments across the Ohio River, has caused an advance in price of from 6 to 8 cents a bushel. “In fact,"’ said J. D. Duncan, of the Duncan Grain Company, Atlanta deal ers who have grain can get almost any price they want to ask for it. W ithin a week or ten days, however, this condition will be improved and grain probably will drop. Wholesale grocery houses say there has been no advance in the price of provisions because of the floods. “We have had little or no difficulty in getting our shipments.” *-aid E. M. Hudson, of the McCord-Stewart Com pany, “and there have been no ad vances in price other than the norma! variations.” HOT SPRINGS, ARK . April 17.

Springtime Brings Young People From All Parts of the Country to the Southern Shorthand' and Business University. Business education is the present- day necessity! “Can you write shorthand or keep a set of books?” the applicant for a position is asked by the business man. “Where were you taught business?” is about the second question usually propounded. Young man. young woman, think, and think seriously. Consider well these two questions. Young (Coleman came to Atlanta from the North and walked the streets for three months looking for a position, but without success. Sev eral business men. on whom he called, advised him to take a cour. c in the Southern Shorthand and Business University of this city. He thought; he acted. The result; After a three-months course, the Southern placed him with a railroad company as stenographer at $50 per month to begin. Mr. Coleman was ambitious, worked to please, and he is now drawing a fine salary. If you want a position, you’ll have to take a business course sooner or later; then, why not now? Don’t postpone longer such an im portant matter. •If you have a diploma from the Southern Business University I will give you a position,” said a prominent business man to a young fellow ap plying for a job. The Southern is an old school been running 47 years - has a large faculty; teaches the best known sys tems of shorthand, bookkeeping, etc*.
