The Railroad Commission will ask the Legislature Tor authority to or der the erection of union passenger stations in cities and towns in Geor gia, where, in the opinion of the com mission, the conditions make such stations desirable and necessary to the accommodation of the traveling public. The Commission now has authority to order the erection of separate sta tions, but it has no authority what ever in the matter of compelling union stations. The Lavonia Times refers to hi n as "Commissioner of Agriculture O’Conner.’’ If the Commissioner now is able to establish the fact that he was born nn the 17th of St. Patrick's Day. | he would seem to have the Irish vote cinched, all right.

By JAMES B. NEVIN. The State Board of Health will urge upon the incoming Legislature, i9 directly as it may, the great desir ability of a dog-muzzling law ;n Georgia. The board is realizing that it is somewhat difficult to enact any sort of legislation having to do with dogs in this State, and to make that leg islation effective after it has been enacted. Still, when the people are made to understand. If they can be made to understand, that an enforced dog-muzzling law would in three years rid Georgia of all danger of rabies, and that already this year the department has treated at the capitol well over three hundred eases of this dreadful disease, the board be lieves the Legislature may be brought to see the very great desirability, if not absolute necessity, of such a law. A dog-muzzling law will be of fered in the Legislature, and it wiil be vigorously backed, not only oy health boaivj and doctors throughout the State, but by several influential members. The State Board of Health feels that the mere muzzling of dogs, entailing some possible discomfort up on them, as it may. stil! is infinite ly preferable to an ever-increasing list of patients to be treated for rab ies. Dog tax laws always have been unpopular in Georgia, and those that have been passed never have been en forced. The dogs seems to have plenty of friends In Georgia—even the “yal- ler” curs and “flop-eared” hounds of the more rural persuasion. If the State Board of Health >can succeed in showing conclusively however, thht. the dogs are getting to be, year by year, a more and more deadly peril tc the people, and par ticularly to children—for they com pose by far the greater nortion of the patients treated—the chances are tha.i some effective legislation may be' ob tained during the forth ming sum mer session. And. anyway, the board has every intention of putting the matter up to the General Assembly, fairly and squarely. \ member-elect of the incoming Legislature has prepared two com • panion bills for the General Assem bly’s early consideration, both of which are of far-reaching consequence and assured of strong support. One biil will provide for a cen tral point of execution for crime m capital cases—probably at Milledge- ville—and the other will provide for the substitution of the electric chair for' the gallows. Both bills are thought to have ex cellent chances of passing the next Legislature. Elaborate arrangements are ur.dei way, looking to the sumptuous enter tainment of Josephus Daniels, of North Carolina. Secretary of the Navy, when he visits Savannah on n about May 10. Ir is^planned to give him a banquet at The De Soto Hotel, to which a hun dred or more prominent South Geor gians will be invited. The Secretary will be asked to deliver an address at this dinner, and to discuss particu larly the navy and its possible rela tion to Savannah, and the coast cities of Georgia. The Mac m Telegraph should worry and get a wrinkle, for this is the lat est obsession it is entertaining: “There is a duty of 45 cents a gal lon on grape juice under the Payne- Aldrich law and it is retained in the Underwood bill, but if it is to become a fashionable drink, it will have to go on the free list as a necessary of life.” The Monticello News thinks the next Legislature can increase the State’s available funds for appro priations to Us various institutions by abolishing a few jobs around and about. The News will be called down for I CO Children of Atlanta Contest for Prizes This Afternoon in Annual “Easter” Hunt. When a man with a trombline slide the first notes of “Dixie” out of hji horn at 3 o’clock this afternoon 20,000 Atlanta children Spread over Grant PaiVt like bees over a flower' searching for 200,000 candy eggs in the weed*' and grass. For to-dev was the dav of the annual Efts ter egg hunt of the Atlanta Park Board, an event children have been looking for ward to for months. All morning J5 or 20 men have worked, scattering the vast number of eggs, and as the children line up on the boundary lines and impatiently await the signal, Grant Park looked like* an old-fashioned “crazy quilt.” Red egg lay side by side with blue egg. and yellow' egg nestle against white in a riotuous maze of color. No attempt was niade to hide the 200.000 eggs the children tried to find. They were simply sown over the ground from large baskets, and even that work kept The 20 men busy all day. The 41 prize eggs, however, were really hidden. Forty of these prize « ggs arc made of wood and bear num bers. When presented at'the pavilion the child lucky finder was given a prize bearing a corresponding num ber. The grand prize was a “golden egg.” This egg is made of brass, and inside of it was an order for a five dollar gold piece. To prevent a repetition of accidents that marred the hunt last year, all vehicles were excluded from the park from 12 o’clock until the egg hunt was over. The committee in charge of the egg hunt comprises W. C. Puckett, T. L. Bond, R. A. Burnett, C. I. Branan and Roger Winter.

The Question That Always Made Him Boil. After standing by for fifteen min utes listening to the stream of ques tions put to a policeman at a hus\ ’corner the woman said: “Don’t you get awfully tired of an swering all these fool questions that are put to you hour after hour?” “Well, rather,” said he. "Still 1’vej got so used to it that there is only tone of the lot that makes me actual ly boil.” “Which one Is that?” she inquired. "Don’t 1 get awfully tired of an swering all the fool questions that other folks ask.” “Oh.” said the woman, and hur ried on. ♦ • • Cats For Rent Is the Latest. A well-known Atlantan just back from a trip to New York tells this one: In the window of an animal and bird store not far from Broadway and Eightieth Street hangs a sign that says: “Nancy, our Angora cat that catches mice and rats, can be rented by the dav or week.” * * * How Motion Signs Are Now Designed. "The electric sign Is only in its Infancy." said a well-known electri cian yesterday. “I was in New York lust week and made It a point to see all the big electrical signs that I could. 1 met the junior member of an electrical sign construction com pany and While we were walking up Broadway after the theater he called my attention to one of the blazing displays in which a horse appears on a gallop. “ ’Has It ever occurred to you,’ said he, ‘how detailed must be the work of the sign builder to represent the movements of living beings in bulbs, and make them artistically realis tic? We have to go far afield some times to obtain the lifelike effect. Th.u horse, for example, plants his hoofs just as in real life—otherwise that sign would be an animated car toon. Now, to get the individual or disjointed movements of the legs in their order of sequence the builder minded that the eye of the otimera is keener than man’s, procured the mo tion picture film of a galloping horse and, examining each snapshot, drew his plans In duplicate. Flashing his bulbs on and off with the same speed employed by a movie operator, the designer has produced the effect of smooth and continuous motion.’ ” fioiNG somFI GEORGIA TO TAKE PART IN TRIANGULAR DEBATE ATHENS, GA..'May 3.—The Uni- versity of Georgia will have two de bating teams in the field to-night, one in Athens against a Washington and Lee team and one in New Orleans against Tulane.
