All of the figures In the fight are well known to most of the officials and Its result will be watched with In terest. Mr. Harahan hus been In the railroad business all his life. He knows nearly every engineer on the system. He is known by every official apd em ployee from the highest to the lowest. John A, Scott, of Memphis, assistant general passenger agent of the Illinois Csntral, Is In Atlanta. When made ac quainted with the proponed change he expressed great pleasure and believed he voiced the aentiment of the em ployees of the road when he said no change could possibly suit them better. "Mr. Harahau Is a very plain man,” said Mr. Scott, "and ha Is easily ap. proached. He la vary popular with the employees and no change would cauae more genuine pleasure than tha one making Mr. Ilarahan president. He s Ihorcughly competent. He kfiows rail roading In Its every phase. 1 don't be Here there Is another man In the copn- try mora peculiarly fitted for this poal- tlon than Mr. Harahan.

TO THIS • STATE The dlrectore of the Georgia Immi gration Association met In Savannah Monday and held an nil-day session, which was full of Interest. The' most Important matter that came up waa the report of u committee uf the board which went to Charleston Sunday to see the landing of the North German I.loyd steamship Wltteklnd, direct from Holgium, with 120 Immi grants brought ovsr from Belgium and neighboring countries. The immigrants were In charge of Mj'. E. J. Watson, commissioner of Immigration for South Carolina, who has been In Europe for some time working pp the party. F. P. Sargent. United 8tates commissioner general of Immigration, was them with u staff of inspectors and Interpreters, who subjected the Immigrants to u searching Investigation. The result was that .15 ware refused admission and seven were excluded because they were suffering from trachoma, u dis ease of the eyes. The linmlgrsntx had little or no money, but the opinion of the cuiniplt- tee was that It was an excellent lot of lieople, very far above the average of those who land at Ellis Island. This is due to the fact that the stale of South Carolina paid their passage and care fully selected these [teopic. They were taken to Columbia, tlienco to be dis tributed through tlm state. -Sonic were textile operators, some farmers, some mechanics, etc. The state of South Carnlltiu only appropriated a few thousand dollars, FOR JUDGE ANDY Judge Andy Calhoun Is confronted with a problem. Puzzle: IFiw can thirty-five rioters be tried In three weeks before five- men Juries when the Atlanta criminal court Is allowed a panel of only twelve men per week und when a Juror has i assisted In the trial of one rlof cam he Is debarred from sitting on any of the others? But tho Judge Is not worrying over the question much, because tho lawyers representing the white men arrested for rioting on the. night of September 22 have elected to sever and If they had rather stay In jail until the next term the court lias no particular ob jections. I. H. Carr, one of the rioters, was convicted Monday and will be sen tenced during the latter part of the week, when the sentences are passed on whatever cosea of this character con be tried before Saturday. Carr, who Is an electrician, Inter ested In the Southern Electro-Plating Company, admitted on the stand that he had been down town on the night of the riot and that he had chaaed and struck n negro, but he said he did It after hearing a cry of "Stop thief!" and protested that he knew nothing of the riot which wap at Us height at that time. MOTHER-IN-LAW. CAUSES SUIT FDR If we undertooK to supply every per son in the United States who had lost their appetites, with a package of Toasted Corn Flakes, we ' would be very much further behind our orders than we are now. But one thing is certain, there would be no such thing, as lost —^ Appetites Toasted Com Flakes have a dis tinctive flavor, the very thought of which makes you anxious for break fast. We have never heard of a person who did not like them—who did not benefit by eating them. Try them tomorrow for breakfast and eat heartily Ten cents at all grocers. Batilt Graafc Toattid Corn Flak* Go. BATTLE CREEK, MICH. tfanitaA. toasted l&CORKjj putts “Too much mother-in-law” is a pro verbial cause of trouble, but the'rom- mon or garden variety, so the comic papers would have Mie world believe^ Is made up of wives' mothers. The other hind has been brought into the limelight, however, in the divorce suit of Mrs. Minnie Hubbard Smith against Charles K. Smith. The peti tion for a separation shows that the couple was married on August 14, 1905, and that Smith took his torlde to live at his mother's home at 71 East Baker street. Mrs. Smith says that her hus band's mother from the first cruelly maltreated her and on several occa sions threatened kill her. The pe titioner claims that she begged her husband to take her somewhere else, but that he would not do It, so, fear ing for her life, she left him September 30, 1905. She asks for a total divorce and the restitution of her pmlden name. and It is understood that most of tho money for this movement was fur nished by the cotton mill companies of South Carolina, who turned over $25,- 000 to the state treasury to be used by the bureau of Immigration at Its dis cretion. The Georgia Immigration Associa tion Is watching this movement and with a great deal of Interest," said W. O. Cooper, secretary of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, and directors of the association from the Fifth dis trict. who attended the meeting in Sa vannah. The plan outlined at the first meet ing of the Georglu Immigration Asso ciation,” he continued, “Is In brief as follows: To raise by subscription tho sum of $50,000 and turn that over to the state for the use of lh/e bureau of Immigra tion, with the understanding that the commissioner of Immigration will send competent agents abroad to select from Northern Europe u good class of Im migrants and bring them to Ueorgiu. landing them at Savannah and bring ing them to some central point In the Interior of the stale, thence to be dis tributed throughout Georgia. "It was also proposed to go before tin* legislature at its next session and ask the state to take Ivdd of the sub ject of Immigration In earnest ami make a sufficient appropriation to make the bureau of Immigration u reality."
