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.

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.

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. | Gladstones Coming To Visit America WASHINGTON. Dec. 9 - Mrs Glad- ! stone and her daughter.

Dec. 9—The Red D I liner Zudia sank in East River early J to-dav just a? she was preparing to clear for Venezuela with a cargo of | flour and apples \ heax > steel shaft : had slipped from the derrick tackle and cra?*'»»d through the hull The seamen fought sox en ii«nirs to save the vessel hut failed The loss is estimated at All Around The Town 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.
