Seventy-four Persons Were Killed Ihirinit Past Year While Tres- puxsiiijl on the Southern Railway's Tracks. Special to The Gazette. ATLANTA. C.A.. Sept. 21. Deatn overtook 1 4 persons, while walking on tracks, swinging trains, or other wise trespassing on the property of the Southern Railway during the year ended June 30th. Despite all warnings of its danger, the practice of trespassing on rail road property seems on the increase. For the three previous years the num ber of trespassers killed on the Southern was as follows: 1913, 155; 1914. 12; 191.1. 146. making with 1916 a total of CO 1 lives sacri ficed to carelessness. Statistics show that the great ma jority of railroad trespassers killed are useful citizens. Wage earners. using the tracks while . walking to and from their work, furnish a large nronortion while fully a third are school boys, killed while "hopping" trains. Adv. Allien Gaining Itapidly.

Internal Revenue Receipts During Ijast Three Years IarKeHt Ever. Washington. Sept. 17. Internal Revenue Bureau operations during the fiscal years 1914, 1915 and 1916 were summed up in a statement to night by Secretary McAdoo wbo de clared the showing broke all previous records of efficiency. "During that period," the state ment says, "the bureau recorded more than enough taxes to meet the entire expenses of the service and the cost of collecting the revenue, which averaged 1.51 per cent against an average of 2.43 per cent since the bureau was established in 1863, was the lowest in the bureau's history. "The expenses of the bureau, botb in Washington and in the field, for the three yearB were approximately $19,800,000. There was assessed or collected approximately $521,000, 000, which was entirely the result of the activities of the bureau and its field force. This tax was unearthed through the discovery of frauds, eva sions, errors and the like. Its recov ery was due to effective enforcement of the revenue laws and erncient Ad ministration.' GIVE IS iOOI IJERH. A Protest Against An Apparent Con tempt of Sleep. From The Chicago News. Modern life, having succeeded in eliminating economy from the list of virtues, is now apparently conduct ing a drive against sleep, which the older authorities numbered among mankind's blessings. People, city people In particular, seem to be ashamed of the fact that they must sleep. Tired nature's sweet restorer, sore labor's bath, that which knits m the raveled sleeve of care the inventor of which was so praised by Sanrho Panza. prince of squires is in disrepute. This tendency to conceal the fact that sleen still falls upon mankind is strikingly Illustrated by modern fur niture. The bed that was frankly a bed is being thrust into the back Kround as something to be ashamed of. Its u ace Is taken by various kinds of monstrosities that masquer ade as other articles of furniture in the daytime, and, indeed, far into the night, confessing th .t tney can be made to serve as beds only when frivolity can no longer stand or sit but must, perforce, become recum hent. The bookcase, the piano, the bath tub, the mirror, the closet door, tne Morris chair these may at any moment, by the pulling of a strap nr th nresslns: of a spring, be re vealed as sleeping utensils beds one cannot fairly call them. And thev function as beds in a dlvldent half-hearted way, as if ashamed of the office; jacks of many trades, they are masters of none. I ntil sleeD itself becomes obsolete the human race must have beds of some sort, and the more comfortable they are the better. No sleeping im plement disguised as a phonograph, a bird "cage or a cook stove can take the place of the old-fashioned piece nf furniture that was a bed and nothing else. Give the Farmer Justice. The farmers of the Franklin school house section near Mt. Airy, are organizing with a view to better ing conditions in rural sections of tne county. They have held frequent meetings of late and are now forming a permanent organization for general improvement. This is In keeping with the new spirit of the times a- bout the Old North State. They have recently sand-clayed a section nt mad and made it the equal of I any in the State or county. Char lotte Observer.

Figures HIhw That as Wage In creases Heer Drinking Lessens. New York Telegram. Why do married men spend mora - time with a foot on the brass rail In' conference over sociology and other -things with the "doctor" in white Jacket and apron, than do, single- men? The monthly bulletin of the health board says it Is a fact, but no attempt Is made to explain the phe- . nomenon. Publication of the state- ' ment. however, will Inspire so many , and so earnest discussions "down at the corner"-that a great light will , be thrown on the mystery. Expert testimony sought from it philosopher who has stood behind a counter for 30 years and who says he bas heard more talk and remem- , bered less than any other living man. elicited this sage observation: ' The reason married men stay m " saloons longer than single men Is; that after the married roan Is once in he is afraid to go home." The health board s bulletin treat of other aspects of the important subject of consumption of alcoholic beverages. It appears that men who work long: hours spend more time in saloons than men who have shorter hours, and that as wage increases the ex penditure for beer declines. The bulletin has It that the mor- ing picture show as a competitor ot the saloon Is having the effect of the saloon beer drinking, but In a recent , : statement of the Treasury Depart ment at Washington it was said that the prohibition movement was re- ducing the consumption of beer, and the amount of higher-powered liquor, , being drunk was going up. . The authority herein quoted on the problem of the married man -said that in his opinion It might be true that the expenditure for beer declined as wages Increased, buf it would be interesting to know If the expenditure for cocktails and lobsters. proportionately increased.
