FELLOW EMPLOYES OF MOST PROFANE MAN IN ATLANTA SNEERED, BUT THEIR MOCKERY WAS HOLLOW. Atlanta, Ga., May So . The statement Is eerlously made that there is not a locomotive engineer, a fireman, a switchman, a conductor, a brakeman, a train dispatcher, a station agent, a telegraph operator, an engine wiper or a trackman on the Western & Atlantic railroad who swears. The statement is made, too, that none of them rises intoxicating liquors. Maybe you think the Western & Atlantic is a jerkwater road. Not much. Its main line extends from here to Chattanooga. Until two years ago, nearly everybody on the road swore when the occasion warranted strong language, but that was before "Hell Roaring Tom" Harrison reformed, and, in reforming, reformed the whole railroad. There never was a man employed by the W. & A. who was a match for Tom Harrison when it came to profanity. He was pointed out to visitors as the most profane man in Atlanta. It was a boast that he could drive a locomotive at top speed and turn loose a different cuss word for every three feet of the road between here and Chattanooga. And no one was prouder of his accomplishment than was "Hell Roaring Tom." One day there came into the yards of the Western Atantic a stranger who stood by while Harrison and a group of fellow railroaders had a discussion. In the course of the discussion "Hell Roaring Tom" turned loose one of the strings of profanity for which he was famous. The stranger made no sign, but that night he knocked at the door of Harrison's home and asked the privilege of a few minutes' conversation with him. "I wish 1 knew his name," says Harrison now in telling the story of the isit, "but I did not ask it. It was shortly after supper that he came in. He did not leave until after breakfast then next morning. He talked to me all the night. Then he went away, and I never have seen or heard of him since, but he changed the whole course of my life. He told me that he had been a great criminal, and that he was in prison when his soul was awakened by a casual reading of the bible. No clergyman had anything to do with it. "He did not preach to me. He just talked to me as man to man, as brother to brother. And there we sat the whole night long, with no thought of anything but this one of saving my soul. After breakfast we shook hands, and he passed out of my life; but from the minute he came into ray house up to the present moment I have not used a profane word. I have changed in thought, in action and in character. And if the stranger wrought a great change in "Tom" Harrison, so "Tom" Harrison has wrought a great change in the employes of the Western & Atlantic. Of course, ther? was a mighty swell of merriment wheu the word went forth that "Hell Roaring Tom" had stopped swearing. But somehow the mirth seemed hollow and forced in the presence of Harrison, for instead of being reckless, devil-may-care and loud, he changed in a day to an earnest, serious, patient and kindly man. who in voice and manner was as different from the Harrison of old as it seemed possible to be. Then, when he was asked what had caused the remarkable change, he told his story, told it in the plain, simple language of

Xhere are some men v;ho have an unusual gift in influencing the thoughts of others. Harrison has this gift to a decided degree, and when he declared that swearing was only a habit, a foul habit, the offensiveness of which is not realized at all by 05 per cent of those who indulge in it, others got to saying the same thing. This had an excellent effect. Within a few months if a man used profanity about the yards of the W. & A. he wa3 looked at with amazement. Along the whole line the same spirit spread. The W. & A. is reformed, reformed by a man who had no training in the evangelistic field. Harrison is "Hell Roaring Tom" no longer. He is "Tom" today to everyone. Boys, girls, men and women never think of calling him Thomas or Mr. Harrison. He still runs his engine. Occasionally at night he goes to the Y. M. C. A. and delivers a short talk. The Y. M. C. A. people say he is one of the best workers for good they ever have had in Atlanta. He goes to church, too, shirking nothing, not even to carrying the collection plate. "It's strange, isn't it?" said Harrison, to a friend the other day. "Only two years ago I thought all those who professed religion were fakers. I did'nt believe that any man or woman was good. And now it is difficult for me to understand how I could have been so blind." ii T GALL CRAZY" This Is Not a Mere Term But a Possible Stern Reality for Lovers of Game. A DOCTOR'S STATEMENT. Philadelphia, May 30. It will not he safe after this to say you are "just crazy over football" if. on. trial for your liberty, you are obliged to face a board of alienists. The American Neurological Association, in thirtyfourth annual meeting assembled at the College of Physicians, heard from Dr. Charles K. Mills and Dr. Charles H. Frazier, of the University of Pennsylvania, how a woman, whose enthusiasm for football became an actual mania, had finally become irresponsible at one of the games, and upon being operated upon in the University hospital, was found to have a cyst in her brain three inches in diameter. "S'.ie couldn't get enough of football," said Dr. Mills, reviewing the history of the case, "and she went at every opportunity. She attended a game here; then she went to New York for more. She went to the Harvard-Indian game in Boston and rushed back here again for the Army and Navy game. And every time she went to a football game she would become very nauseated and dizzy and would become partially disorientated. She was so ill at the last. Army and Navy game that she attempted to leave the stand and in heading for the aisles ran into a post. Her symptoms were left lateral homonymous hemianopsia and hemiataxia, especially marked in her upper extremities." The general depression noticeable in some quarters at the close cf the football season was particularly marked in this victim of the new "dementia." After her operation her recovery was rapid and virtually complete, so far as can be positively ascertained before the beginning of the next football season. As this is the only case of its kind yet run to cover by the proper authorities, too general deductions cannot he made from it. But it is possible that suspicious cases will be rigorouslywatched when the seasons opens and persons finding themselves victims of an uncontrollable fondness for foothall may be subjected to examinations in the interest of science.

THE MAN HAS SERVED THE LEAGUE IN THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS IN SEVERAL POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS. Springfield, Mass., May P0. With all the mystery that covers the selection of a presidential candidate of the Independence national party there is persistent mention of the name of Thomas L,. Hisgen that seems to mark him as the man for the honor. Who is Hisgen? He is in charge of an independent oil company at West Springfield, just across the river from this thriving city. It is a branch of an oil company and the largest axle grease factory in the world, located at Albany, and Hisgen is president of the whole business. He has done big things. Starting from nothing he has in twenty years developed a great industrial concern, made his fortune, and whipped the Standard Oil Co. Hisgen was born at Petersburg, Ind. in 1858. When he was sixteen years old he removed with his parents and ten other children of the family to a farm near Albany, N. Y. In a few years he and three of his brothers secured employment as clerks in a clothing store. They were successful. It then occurred to Thomas that if they could sell clothing for another man probably they could sell things for themselves, preferably something of their own manufacture. Their father, who was Something of a chemist, had a formula for making axle grease. Two of the boys made it and the other two acted as selling agents. That was in 1888. Ten years later, the Standard Oil Co., which also sells axle grease, offered them $600,000 for their business. They declined the offer, and the Standard by the use of its characteristic methods, set out to ruin them. Most dealers who handle axle grease also sell kerosene. The Standard notified these dealers that unless they quit dealing with the Hisgen brothers they would get no oil. The Hisgens met this emergency by going into the oil business. They have met the Standard at every point, however, have beaten it and have increased their business. Hisgen was nominated for state auditor on the independence league ticket two years ago and received 150,000 votes. As league candidate for governor last year he polled 75,000 votes which was 6,000 more than were cast for the regular democratic nominee. "I feel confident," he says, "that the independence national party will poll 3.000,000 votes this year and that in 1912 it will sweep the country." He wedded in 1900, Miss Barbara Fox of Albany. They have three children. Tom, junior, aged 6, Cather i ine, 5, and Henrietta, 2 years old. WOMEN ARE VULGAR AT PRETIY WEDDINGS Vicar of St. Catherine's Enters A Bitter Protest. Washington, D.
