In reference to a statement made by
Governor W. J. Northen, In which the
leader of the Business Men's Gospel
I’nlnn took exceptions to what Rev.
W. T. Hunnlcutt, pastor, of the Payne
Memorial church, said concerning the
com. of the Torrey-Alexander meeting,
Mr Hunnlcutt has Issued a card In
which he states among other things:
"My meaning was misunderstood. I
meant that If you will advertise any
local pastor as Dr. Torrey was adver-
need he, in his own church, may do
m,ue god than an Imported man."

PRETTY ATLANTA ACTRESS
IS NOT IN THE THA W CASE
The striking similarity In name of
the beautiful little actress, who for two
winters made this city her home, living
across from the governor's mansion,
Peachtree and Cain streets, has led to
the natural mistake of mixing In the
minds of many Atlantans Miriam Nes-
blt and Evelyn Nesblt, wife of Harry.
K. Thaw, the perpetrator of the great
est sensation which has stirred Gotham
and the whole country for years.
During the winters of ilk* and 1199
Miss Miriam Nesblt, afterwards a
member of the May Irwin Copipany,
and who won by her beauty and mark
ed talent recognition throughout this
country and across' the ocean, resided
with her mother In Atlanta. While
In this city she mods many friends,
who have with pleasure watched her
meteoric career. When the news of
the Madison Square Garden tragedy
reached Atlanta those In whose minds
time hsd dimmed the recollection of
Miss Nesblt's first name believed the
wife of the principal actor In the trag
edy and the Atlanta girl the asms.
Both of the Nesblt girls were always
accompanied by their mothers and both
fathers were lawyers. On this account
many thought the lady In th* case was
the former Atlantan.

70 CHECK ALL BAGGAGE
IN A UNIFORM MANNER
A,-D, EIRE COMPANY
DID NOT DENY CLAIMS
l icsldeat J. T. Dargan of the Atlanta*
Ml uilucliani Fire Insurance Company of
itilt elty has written au open letter to the
Imsraiice Field of Louisville, which sets
fa-lb In unmistakable terms the falsity of
th" rumors thnt the romiuiiiy had en-
tcred s denial of general nubility under
their contracts 111 force In Csllfarnla during
th.. rreeul disaster In Kan Francisco and
icljiireut territory.
President Charles A. Wlckeraham, of
the Atlanta Terminal Company, an
nounced before hi* departure for Chi
cago Tuesday evening that upon his
roturn, on July 6, he would Immediate
ly proceed to establish a uniform sys
tem of checking of baggage at the
terminal station, In order to do away
with the present unpleasantness which
exists In thnt branch of the terminal
business. In order to do that, It Is
thought likely that the company will
adopt the checking aystem In vogue
in alt large cltlea In the country, the
same to taka effect on July It.
If the Idea Is carried out, each and
every baggage company and Indi
vidual drayman In Atlanta will be
given equal rights In handling baggage
at the terminal. Each piece of bag
gage which Is delivered to the station
wlH be entitled to a claim check, which
the company delivering the baggage
will give lo the party sending the bag
gage to the station. No piece of bag-
S age will be delivered or cheeked lo
estlnatlon without this claim check,
and this will be an Iron-clad rule,
which will not be violated under any
consideration.
This system Is in vogue In all the
larger cities of the country, and has
proven to be the only practical solu
tion of the baggage problem. The cor
rect use i>f the system eliminates alt
chances of baggage becoming lost or
stolen, and will be welcomed by the
attaches of the station, as well as by
the traveling public, who understand
the condition of affairs.
Privste Bsggsge Office.
For the purpose of still further In
creasing th* efficiency of the baggags
department at the Terminal station and
lo facilitate the handling of baggage
for both patrons and baggage agents
at the station, Baggage Master J. B.
Heyward Is having a private office
constructed for his use at a convenient
location within the encloaure devoted
to the purposes of the department.
By the establishment of the new of-
Ace Mr. Heyward will be In n position
to personally take up any grievances
with the public which may arise from
lime to time and will also be able to
overlook the work ot hi* many em
ployees. By being In closer touch with
the public he will be able to greatly In
crease the efficiency of the present
baggage system.
