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.

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. MEASURE IS TAKEN FROM TABLE WEDNESDAY.
