THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEW*.
CURRENCY BILL
IT
Conference Completes Compro
mise in Session Lasting Till 3
o'Clock Monday Morning.
WASHINGTON. Dee. 22 -The Ad
ministration's currency bill probably
will bo enacted into law before night.
The last obstacles in its path were
swept away at a long night session »»f
the House and Senate conferees,
which ended at 3 o’clock this morn-
ing
The only action necessary to make
the measure a law is acceptance by
th# two houses of the conference re
port and President Wilson’s signa
ture.
Important action was taken by the
conferees in the closing hours of their
long session. In which they were aided
bv the advice of Secretary of # he
Treasury McAdoo. The House con
ferees triumphed on two big points of
d ffrence when an agreement was
reached to drop the provision provid
ing for the guarantee of national ban*
deposits and to eliminate the clause
permitting the use of reserve notes as
t•« serves of member banks
A compromise was reached on a
matter that has caused bitter fighting
when it was agreed that the Comp
troller of the Currency shall be a
member of the Federal Reserve Board,
but that the Secretary of Agricultrt?
> hall not serve on the board.
The House had fought to have boih
officials made ex-officio members of
the board, and succeeded in securing
an agreement to have them made
members of the organization commit
tee
The question of retiring 2 per cent
bonds ( Bused sharp discussion, and it
whs finally decided to retire them two
years after the Inauguration of :he
new system, $26,000,000 worth to be
retired annually. They shall be taken
over from national banks by reserve
ba nks.
For one-half of the bonds so taken
reserve banks w ill issue notes similar
to those of national banks.
The conferees were w r orn out bv
their arduous work, but stuck to the
task until it was finished, having re
solved to complete the work so that
Congress might adjourn over the hol
idays. As fast as an agreement was
reached on the various provisions and
i page of the bill disposed of it was
rushed to the Government prlntery for
preparation.
Express Officers Are

The express offices in Atlanta started
the week with cleared decks, everything

o’clock Sunday afternoon. To accom
plish that a force of 200 extra men. 25

Forsyth Gets Record Crowd—Hel
en Keller’s Appeal Inspires.
Christmas Fund Increased.
Continued From Page 1.
dience to a groat admiration for the
woman who had overcome obstacle*
that had seemed insurmountable, who
had broken the whence that lasts with
others similarly aCfficted to the grave
The waves of applause and cheer
ing were a tribute to her personality
and to her almost miraculous achieve
ments, as well as to her sentiments
of carrying the spirit of Christmas
into one’s everyday life, into legisla
tion and into civic reform.
She spoke with some effort, a cir
cumstance that heightened rather
than lessened the interest In her ad
dress The marvel was that she
could articulate at all.
By her side stood the faithful teach
er. Mrs John Macy, to whose efforts,
coupled with the indomitable per
severance of the pupil, is due the re
markable accomplishments of Miss
Keller.
Gives $10 to Fund.
Mrs. Macy repeated after Miss
Keller the sentences that she^ittered
In order fhat those in the furtherest
parts of the house might not miss a
word. Occasionally in her eagerness
to say the words that were in her
heart, she hurried on for several sen
tences and Mrs. Macy had some
difficulty in catching up.
And then, after Miss Keller had
finished her appeal for the little chil
dren of Atlanta and for their moth
ers and had showed the sincerity of
her spirit by contributing the first
$10 to the Empty Storking Fund,
ushers went about the crowd with
children’s stockings strung on wire
loops. There was an instant reaching
for purses and pocket hooks.
No one wished to he missed. Chil
dren In more fortunate circumstance^
than those for whom the fund is being
raised put in their pennies and nick
els, while their parents looked on In
proud approval. It was a general
and cheerful response.
One Man Gives I. O. U.
Within a few minutes the toes of
the little stockings were weighted
with coin and stuffed with bills.
Every denomination was represent
ed One man put in an I. O. L T . for $1.
*1 had only 20 cents In-my pocket."
he explained, "and no one could think
of paying less than $1 for that con
cert, leaving out the charitable mo
tive entirely.” *
And he was right. The orchestras
and bands probably never played any
better in their careers. The singers
outdid themselves in their efforts to
please and entertain the crowd. They
were doing it for the little ones, and
they were doing it right.
They were contributing their ser
vices without a cent of return, and
they appeared to be getting as much
pleasure and satisfaction out of it
as the highly delighted crowd.
Players Score “Hits."
There were encores and encores.
The orchestras and hands of C. E.
Barber. J. IV Matthleson and Fred
Wedemeyer were forced repeatedly to
boy to the will of the great crowd
and play again.
Bee’s Hawaiian Trio, with their
setting of tropical scenery and tfV*ir
curious Hawaiian harmonies proved
high favor Ires and they were called
back, singly and together, time and
again.
Then there was the talented Stein-
way Quartet from the Vaudette
Theater and the Monarch Harmony
Four fro mthe Alamo. The quartets
made a hit with their selections.
They sang with all their heart and
with all their ability.
Boy Musician Gets Ovation.
One of the prettiest of the musical
selections was the cornet and trom
bone duet by Messrs, (’ox and Bar
ber. The cornet solo by brilliant
young Leon McConville also was a
feature.
He received an ovation before be
ever began to play, and this was re
doubled when be had shown his skill
The lad demonstrated a talent that
many musicians of years of expe
rience lack and found a warm place
in the htfirts of each of the 2,200 per
sons who heard him.
And what an inspiration the musi
cians had! Not only were they play
ing for the poor children of Atlanta,
but they were being cheered and ap
plauded by one of the largest crowds
ever inside the Forsyth Theater.
Every seat was filled. Before them
in the parquet the performers saw a
sea of faces. Where these left off
the balcony began, and up, up into
the gallerv they continued.
Theater Is Packed.
People sat on the stairs in the rear
of the building. They would have
stood in the aisles had the watchful
police and firemen let them As it
was, they leaned against pillars and
covertly found places of vantage
where they could see the stage as
well as hear the music.
Where the seats ended in the rear
of the building people stood packed
from there to the doors.
It was the same in the balcony, and
in the gallery there were probably a
hundred who were unable to find
seats.
Outside there was a crowd Insist
ing on getting in. The doors opened
at 2 o’clock.
Scores Turned Away.
The place was taken by storm
Within a few minutes a person had
difficulty In gaining entrance At 3
o’clock, when the concert opened, it
was an impossibility
The doormen were obdurate. All
varieties of pleas were made for per
mission to enter. Most of them failed,
but occasionally some fortunate per
son with a little more recourse was
able to get the door opened to him.
For half an hour after the concert
began the vestibule of the theater was
packed with persons who had ar
rived too late. A half hour later they
had left in despair, but as many more
had taken their places.

STORIES

TOWN
Sometimes it seems there is a good
deal to the Christmas shopping spirit,
besides the accustomed hurry and
worry, the bustle and crowding, and
frazzled nerves, and snappy tempers.
There was a woman shopping in
one of the big department stores Fri
day, and the harried shopgirl made a
mistake in adding up her bill. The
mistake amounted to a dollar, and it
was the wrong way—for the store.
"There’s a little mistake In that,
isn’t there.'’’ the woman Inquired,
kindly. The girl was In a hurry, and
didn’t seem to think there was a mis
take. She said so, rather briskly. But
the woman, instead of being nettled
and taking advantage of the store's
error, patiently showed the girl where
the error was.
Then the girl showed her side of it,
Impulsively.
"I don’t know how to thank you,"
she said. “That dollar would have
come out of my wages, and a fine be
sides—and, goodness knows, 1 can’t
afford to lose it. It’s awfully good
of you to take the trouble to see that
the ticket was right. So many peo
ple don’t and we girls have to stand
it if we make a mistake. I just wish
there were more shoppers like you!"
Here’s a story, so old that it prob
ably Is new again, connected with that
grand old pioneer of Southern edu
cation. Jess* Mercer. The Rev. John
F. Purser, pastor of th^ West End
Baptist Church, brought the story
hack from a little pilgrimage he has
been making In Wilkes County.
"They tell me." said Mr Purser,
"that Jesse Mercer, the founder of
Mercer University, married a widow,
a Mrs. Simons. And the story is about
her first husband, who must have
been a very odd character.
“Mrs. Mercer was a woman of pro
found religious convictions, but it
seems her first husband, Simons, was
extremely unsettled in his ideas on
the subject.
“In fact, from all I can learn, Mr.
Simons’ only fixed conviction was an
abiding, faith in the evil and threat
ening personality of the devil. He
was so afraid of the devil that his an
ticipation of a life beyond the grave
was inextricably mixed up with a
dread of a personal attack by His Sa
tanic Majesty.
"So he provided in his will that he
be buried in an upright position, with
a loaded gun at his side, and his
right hand on the gun—he wanted to
be ready to defend himself."
And Dr. Purser says that every
body around there believes the provi
sion’s of the will were duly carried
out.
The course of commercial empire,
having progressed westward, as sug
gested in the time-honored adage,
now is proceeding southward at a
rapid rate, with special consideration
of the silk manufacturing business.
In Atlanta’s department stores to
day you will find exquisite fabrics
made in America, quite supplanting
the former French designs, and of
fered at an amazingly lower cost.
"These remarkable kimono patterns
were woven in Paterson, N. J.," said
the head of the silk department in
one of the big stores Friday. “The
cost? A dollar a yferd. Aren’t they
beauties? Perhaps you didn’t know
that our American silks had been tak
ing blue ribbons at all the big inter
national exhibitions for the last three
>ears. Well, It’s a fact.
"And the silk factories are begin
ning to move southward. There’s a
fine one now at High Point, N. C.
turning out silk that equals the best
that can be imported—surpasses It, 1
believe.
"That will be a great thing for the
South. The class of labor employed
In silk manufacture Is far superior to
the cotton mill class, and, aside from
Its vast commercial benefits, the com
ing of silk factories to the South is
regarded as of great advantage to the
section."
The trial of Leo M. Frank, notable
in many other respects, has been re
markable for the maze of relation
ships of various sorts between the
attorneys and others closely inter'^ted
that have developed out of it. a sit
uation that has been made more pro
nounced by the recent hearing before
the Supreme Court. When Luther Z.
Rosser, chief of counsel for Frank,
and Solicitor General Dorsey arrayed
their forces. It was relative fighting
relative. Rosser’s son having married
a sister of Dorsey The case was
brought to trial. Sitting on the bench
was Judge L. S. Roan, a former law
partner as well as business associate
of Attorney Rosser. The interlacing
of relations was Increased during the
trial when Arthur Heyman, a law
partner of Dorsey, was called by Ros
ser as a witness for the defense A
few minutes later Max F. Goldstein,
one of the law partners of Frank A.
Hooper, associated with Dorsey In
the prosecution, also was called as a
witness for the defense. Then came
the appeal to the Supreme Court and
it was recalled that Justice S. C. At
kinson one of the three judges who
heard the appeal, was related by
marriage to Governor John M. Sla
ton, who is one of the law partneic
of Attorney Rosser.

PROTESTED
City Officials Against West Peach
tree Site—Chief Puts Ques
tion Up to Council.
Since the assurance that Council
will provide for a new' fire station for
the Ansley Park and Brookwood sec
tions. Councilman-elect Frank H.
Reynolds and Alderman-elect John S.
Owens have Joined in a plan to pro
test against the location for the sta
tion that has already been selected in
the purchase of a lot.
The lot is on West Peachtree street
between Fourteenth and Fifteenth
streets.
“There are no houses to speak of
west of this location and in every
other direction there are steep hills
to be climbed," said Mr. Reynolds.
"There have been complaints from
residents all over that section against
the location. I don’t see why it ev£r
was selected.
"A location that appeals to me is
the abandoned tennis courts which
the Piedmont Driving Club built in
Piedmont Park opposite the junction
of Piedmont avenue and South Prado.
The Park Board was strenuously op
posed to the location of a school in
the park, and I think the members
were right. But a bungalow fire
engine house would be attractive to
look at and would take up very little
space. We could sell the West Peach
tree lot and build the station with a
few’ thousand dollars extra.
“With an automobile engine the
w’hole North Side could be easily cov
ered. The location is high and there
are good streets leading in every di
rection."
Fire Chief W. B. Cummings said
Monday that if Council wanted a
new' location it would have to select
the lot arid buy it. He said he spent
two years trying to do this, and the
West Peachtree lot was the result of
his best efforts.
"People want fire engine houses,
he said, “but they want them next
to somebody else’s house.”

A New Rex Beach Novel
R EX BEACH, virile and forceful, writes a story
that throbs with the teaming activity of our great
metropolis. When he tells you of New York life, he
shows you the people who actually walk Broadway.
That is why his latest novel,
‘' The Auction Block
is so intense, so realistic. That is why the next five
years of Rex Beach’s work has been contracted for
by Cosmopolitan.
Charles Dana Gibson.
whose dashing pen has so well caught the
charm of the youthful heroine, is drawing the
illustrations.
Lorelei, dainty, piquant, and unspoiled,
seeking recognition on the stage of a
greedy city. If she were your own daughter,
you would follow her fortune no closer than
you will when you read this story. Get it
