GDLD SNAP DUE
TO HOLD ON
Tuesday’s Temperature Slightly
Lower Than Monday's—En
tire State Shivering.
Winter was still on the job Tues
day morning Not satisfied with com
ing down from Greenland’s icy moun
tains In a roaring 42-mlle-an-hour
gale and giving Atlanta a day of
weather that was colder than the best
he could do In 1912, winter opened up
Tuesday morning with an even colder
snap than that which boomed trade
and made the coal dealer glad Mon
day.
At 7 o’clock Tuesday morning the
mercury In the official thermometers
was a trifle lower than Monday morn
ing at the aame hour, though the dif
ference waa not noticeable to the man
on the street.
TTnleae the forecaster has read hie
signs wrong, the cold weather will
continue throughout the day, and
mostly throughout December, al
though there are no more winds on
the weather docket like the one that
swirled and roared around Atlanta’s
corners Stind&y night.
C. F. VonHerrmann, official weather
prognosticator, declared Tuesday that
while every day In December will not
be so cold a? Monday and Tuesday,
the warm days will be the exception
and not the rule from now until after
Christmas. Overcoats that have lain
for months in the grip of the moth
ball were very much In order Monday
and Tuesday, and will be until after
the holidays.
Reports of unusually cold weather
all over Georgia are coming In to the
office of the weather bureau. Macon
and Augusta had freezing tempera
tures Monday and Monday night, and
j down at Savannah they shivered at a
temperature of 40 degree* At va
rious points near the Florida line the
thermometers covered near the freez
ing mark, although the wind was not
so strong as It was in Atlanta
If these necessities rise out of reach—eat cheese, says the Government.

The newspaper men of Atlanta have
added a nesx saint to their calendar.
His name is Frank Harrell of the
Winecoff Hotel and he i«» a Patron
Saint of a very special brand.
Mr Harrell entertained «t dinner
Monday night in the rathskeller of
the Winecoff and the newspaper men
were his guest?. The dinner was ex
quisitely served, and in saying that
there is no chanec for Mr. Harrell
ever to fade from :he kindly remem
brance of the Fourth Estate it is only
just to add that the Fourth Estate
isn’t likely to grow dim In the mem
ory of .Mr. Harrell
The only thing that could possibly
rival the quality of the feast was the
appreciation of "the boys.”
If you are much acquainted with
newspaper men, you know very well
that they are not given to demon
stration in excess, if they were they
would succumb to twittering hys
terics about once every 24 hours.
On the other hand, when the time
and the occasion seem ripe for a
demonstration, an innocent bystander
might well he pardoned for turning
in a riot call. 4
The time and the occasion seemed
ripe In the rathskeller of the Winecoff
Monday night That i? to say. the lid
came off; th© well-known welkin rang
again, and jox was unconfined in a
most astounding degree. For three
light-footed hours there were brand
new stories and twice-told tales, and
yarns that never had been spun be
fore. and songs, some of which prob
ably never will be chanted In quite
the same way again
Innis Brown, possessing In addition
to the gift of after-dinner oratory a
fine and hu?k\ physique, was elected
toastmaster when Mr. Harrell de
clined the job It ma\ he remarked
in passing that Mr. Brown's well-
known efficiency as a referee of foot
ball games was a valuable asset.
The Winecoff Hotel was represent
ed by Mr. Harrell. W L Mitchell and
C. E. Jenkins. W. F. Winecoff had
planned to he present, but the burn
ing of his home, of course, put all
other affairs r.n one side. The news
of the fire was the only note of regret
in a most happy evening.

Little Facts and Fancies About
Well Known Atlantans
Man wants but little here below', and
usually if he can’t got what he wants,
he will take what he can get. A story
told by r. E. Jenkins, one of the clerk?
at the new Winecoff, proves It:
“It happened the other day.’ said
Jenkin? "I v^as'standing in profound
meditation behind the desk, when the
door opened and dignity s synonym
walked in. He was an exceedingly tall
and pompous individual, frock coated, i
silk hatted, and bearing the royal stamp!
of PERSONAGE all over him He ra ,
diated dignity like a Georgian radiates
prosperity He strutted up to the desk,
and 1 reached up into the air and shook
his hand I placed one hand ; n his coat |
lapel, a la Patrick Henry, and then he
^spoke, rumblingly:
" ‘1 ain Mr. he added, '1 am
a traveling man, hut I live on the out j
skirts of the city i am in a position j
to do your hotel a great deal of good ' ;
" 'That’s very kind of you. I'm sure.'
I said.
' T understand,' said Mr. ,
‘that at your opening night you gave
away very handsome souvenirs Is that
correct?’
" 'That’s right,’ I said, "but I’m vary
aorry to ear they are all gone!’
" *That’s too bad.' he said, 'and I am
in & position to do you a great deal of
good However, X understand that you
g&x'e away souvenirs Thanksgiving, also.
Is that correct?’
"They're all gone, too, I'm sorry to
say.’ I replied.
* he murmured, “and I am
In a position to do you a great deal of
good. Is there anything at all that you
are—or—giving away ai present?’
“I told him I couldn’t think of any
thing right on the spur of the moment,
and then he spied a packet of postcards
bearing a picture of the hotel.
'* ‘Are those for general distribu
tion?’ he asked. ‘I'd like to take a
few.'
“t told him to help himself and he
took fifty—all there were on the deck.
** 'Now,” he said, ‘your stationery, that
is for general distribution also. Is it
not° I w r ould like some of that, for I
am In a position to do your hotel a great
deal of good.’
“I told him to help himself—and he
did. He took All the paper and enve
lope? there were on the desk, stuffed
them Into his pockets, asked me to no
tify him when we gave away any more
souvenir?, raised his hat—and was
gone.”
Cynical persons may declare that
there are a lot of jokes on the Atlanta
police department, but cynics, pessi
mists and optimists are off in a bunch
with the assertion that Sergeant George
Bullard is the prize joker of the de
partment. Bullard is a quiet, fine look
ing sort of person who keeps his mouth
shut and his exes and ears open, and he
ha? a lot of dry humor in him that Is
prone to break out very unexpectedly,
ft happens that Tom Bane, who is the
turnkey ori the evening watch, is al
ways doing a lot of work back in the
cell?, and has to come on the run when
ever a prisoner Is brought in. For the
purpose of getting some speed to the
coming of Tom and the other turnkey?,
there Is an e’ectric push button In the |
sergeant’s office. Bui Sergeant Bullard
didn't think it rang loud enough, so he
got a cracked cowbell and hung it on
a nail. Now' when he wants Bane, he
summons him with a ring that resounds |
throughout the length and breadth of
Decatur street, for a cracked cowbell
wielded by a practical Joker can turn
loose about the wierdest assortment of
noises there are.
The punch bowl which has stood for I
many year.? over the key rack at the j
Piedmont Hotel has been replaced with j
a monster sponge, which w r as present- j
ed 'to R. Frank Taylor, the assistant
manager, by a sea-going friend. The
sponge is almost as big as a wash-tub,
and has caused the clerks to come in
for a lot of chafing as to its purpose.
Tom Needles, one of the room clerks,
insists that It was placed there to ab
sorb some of the hot air that he says
Grady Calloway hurls at the devoted
heads of the traveling public.
