THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. :E Of CZAR ilf’TBERECEIVED Vladimir No^ .Wanted at the Court of England’s Rulers. By RICHARD ABERCORN. (Copyright, 1906, by the Hearst New* Service.) London, Sept. 8.—Before ehe left ' England to visit her daughter, Queen Maud at tiorway. Queen Alexandra Is ia id to have made King Edward give her the promise t!)at he would Inform Grand- Duke Vladimir of Russia, uncle 0 f the csar, that Jhtl presence In this country during his term of tanlsh- mfn t from Russia Is not wanted, and should he come to London he would not be received at the .English court. In spite of his fear of his uncle, the crar a couple of weeks ago Issued a decree banishing Vladimir from Rus sia for one year because of his scan dalous behavior, which defies all dfe- 1 scrlptlon. for many months the grand duke, who has always been the black sheep of the Imperial family, has been In a state of permanent Intoxication, but nothing was done to restrain him until he. during one of his spasms, forced his way Into the osar's private apartments at Peterhof and threatened to knock Nicholas’ head oft because the csar had refused to make Admiral Alexleff, the man who was responsible for the Russo-Japanese war, minister of ma rine In the Stotypln cabinet. When General Trepoff, commander of the palace, tried to stop him he was thrown violently to the floor by a blow from the fist of the furious grand duke, who has the strength of a giant. It took the combined strength of ten of ficers and soldiers to overpower the drunken man and carry him off to a cell, where he spent the night. Though the csar ordered every one to keep the affair secret, the czarina heard of It, and she forced her hus band to banish his uncle. Vladimir then announced his Intention of spend ing next winter In London, supposedly tn study the workings of the British parliament, but really because he Is afraid to go to France, which la full of Russian refugees, any one of whom would gladly sacrifice his own life to rid the world of Vladimir, whom they consider responsible for the czar’s fail ure to grant a constitution to Rus sia. Now that also England Is closed to this dissipated and blood-thirsty mon ster, he can do nothing better than ask the hospitality of Leopold of Bel gium. who might take pity on him and receive him as guest at Laeken. Hopes are entertained that the treas ure ship of the Spanish Armada, which has lain for centuries at the bottom of Tobermory bay. will soon be located and Its cargo of gold and silver re covered. The latest scientific methods have been used In a search which has ex tended over centuries. Sand pumping and modern diving bells and other In genious contrivances, of which the ear lier searchers knew nothing, are being employed, and by their aid the faecl- natlng Spanish; doubloons will once more see the light of the day. The treasure ship Florenela was 961 tons and earrled 52 guns. One of the quaint traditions still current as to the sinking of the ship In the smooth waters of Tobermory attributes the dis aster lo the work of the witches from the neighboring Island of Mull. These, the story runs, -appeared on the spars of the vessel In the form of black cats and brought on the gale which sunk her. Aside from the traditions, It has defi nitely been determined that the Floren ce is actually at the bottom of ths bay. The Argyll family began the first search for the treasure about a century after the visit of the Armada, but since that time various attempts have been made and brass cannon, one of eleven feet In length and of most elaborate workmanship^ with engraving-attribut ed to the great Benebenutn Cellini, money chesta and stray doubloons have been found. While King Edward Is fond of wine this preference Is old champagne), none a( the ladles of the royal household ever drink wine. Queen Alexandra never touches wine, at the state din ners she attends, drinking nothing but her favorite mineral water at meals. The late Queen Victoria reared all her daughters and granddaughters as pro hibitionists. Queen Victoria of 8paln doesn’t know the taste of wine or beer, her favorite tipple being orangeade. Her mother, Princess Henry of Batten- berg, is also a teetotaller, and when she suffers from rheumatism, as she frequently does, she detests to drink THE THEATERS "Old Innocence."

The performance was fln- lahed, even brilliant, and the play one of the moat delightful ever presented by Mr. Murphy. Tim Murphy Is essentially a South ern player. He Is of the South by birth and Training, he chose his wife, who has for several seasons been his leading woman, from Tennessee, and it has been hi* habit to surround hlm- aelf with Southern men and women when practicable. He has not the prestige of a two-hundred-ntght run on Broadway: he does not bear the hall- mark of the Frohmans dr any-of the great managers, but fh the year* he has visited the cities of the South he has won an Increasing host of friends who And In him those same elements which made the name of Sol Smith Russell known, wherever there is n stage. His portrayal of elderly, eccen tric characters Is delicious. They are oil lovable old men—Tim Murphy could not pity a villain If he would—and Jason Green Is one of the moet lovable of them all. Miss Dorothy Sherrod, the leading woman, Is given but slight opportunity ns the wife of "Old Innocence," but she Is as acceptable aa she has always been, and her gowns made the women In the nudlense draw a deep breath. Mies Louise Whitfield, the Ingenue, Is so attractive that many a man envied the stage lover In some of their scenes. James Cooper, as the hard-hearted brother, gave a splendid Impersonation of a difficult role and fairly divided the honors with Mr. Murphy. John Arthur’s conception of hla role, the neglected ton, was not a pleasing one, but his acting was thoroughly artistic. The entire company gave a finished performance, unmarred by any false note. The engagement continues Sat urday afternoon and night. DUDLEY GLASS.

Parle, Sept. 8.—King Alfonso is an observant young monarch, as many things have gone to prove. He hae Just Inquired of a friend In Parle for news of a certain kitchen-garden In the Rue Guy de Maupassant. He no tlced this "potager” on arriving In Paris at the station of the Porte Dau phlne. It Is situated on the side of the line between the Rues Guy de Maupassant and Eugene Lahtche, and Is cultivated by a railway pointsman. Its well-ordered lines of excellent veg etables astonished the king, and as It appears, he has never forgotten It. It Is at present a very pleasing spec tacle, with Its cabbage, artichokes, sal ads, beetroots and radishes, and the proprietor Is pushing forward his mel ons, the first of which he Intends to present to his Spanish majesty, while the finest bunch of grapes this autumn Is to be sent to Queen Victoria. When the government wishes to con fer a favor on the widow or the orphan of a deceased officer or civil function ary, It accords her the concession of a tobacco shop.

There are 286 of them, and among the beneficiaries are the widows of two deputies, and two senators, n musical composer, an admiral, a general of brigade, two presidents of courts of law, an ex-minister, a public prosecutor and others. Besides these widows, the following Individuals among others have been given tobacco shops—an ex actress of the Comedle Francalse, the daughter of a "proscrlt.” the father of seventeen children and the father of a non-commissioned officer murdered In Madagascar.

The company has al ready commenced work on the mill and are applying for a charter, the pe titioners being A. M. Knight, B. D. Finn and T. M. Westberry. For manjt years Ware, Charlton and Coffee county people have made a reg ular business of rafting timber down the Satllla to the mills near the coast. The trips on the rafts have been tire- some and expen.ive and usually con sumed about a week. Another of Atlanta’s promising young Are Insurance men who has recently met with recognition from outside states Is Carlton Y. Smith, who was this week appointed special agent of the Virginia State Insurance Compa ny, of Richmond, succeeding Otis A. .Murphy, who resigned to accept a sim ilar position with the Dixie Fire, of Greensboro. Mr. Smith has a hoat of friends In Atlanta and Is an amateur tennis play er of ability. He has had. a very good experience In his profession, having beep connected for over i eight years past with various department and locat offices and special agent and In other capacities. He was for some years with Manager Clarence Knowlea and later with Manager W. E. Chapin, of the Pennsylvania Fire. Lately he has been connected with the Atlanta-BIr- mlngham Insurance Company and the McCandlesa & Haynes local agency, and also represented the Standard Life and Accident Insurance Company, of Detroit.

Special Agent Clarence Ruse, of the Royal, retured to Atlanta this week to make this city his home again, after representing the company for a num ber of years In Louisiana, with head quarters at New- Orleans.

King & Drake, of Atlanta, general agents of the Pennsylvania Fire, have secured the liability line on Ihe ele valors of the Empire building, hereto fore written by the London Guarantee and Accident. These gentlemen have Just secured an Important addition tn their working force by the appointment of Horace W.

So Jules presented himself fit the barracks yesterday, greatly to the sur prise of the officers, when willing enough, and as active ns circumstances would allow, he hobbled along In the ranks with a wooden leg. Naturally, he was sent home again. The campaign against feathers In ladlss' hats has now reached France. The most humanitarian of ladles have, naturally, been a trifle doubtful ;of the success of the movement. In spite of Its high patronsge—In view of the fact that everything In regard to female fashion stilt follows the lead of Paris. But now we have here taken up the matter In which London, New York, Berlin and Amsterdam has already moved, and a league exists, whose ob ject It Is to combat the slaughter of young birds for feminine adornment. The president of the league Is a young lady named Mile. Marguerite des Varennea, who Is the secretary of the "Revae des Anlmaux Illustrees.” and who, assisted by a few friends, founded It. Their Idea le not to trou hie tpe legislature or the authorities, but to endeavor to Influence public opinion, and first of all, to Interest the modistes In the movement. One point gained Is Ihe fact that all who have heard about the matter seem to be surprised that hats can be made so at tractive without birds' feathers. From Ths Baltimore World. Back to the tall timbers for "The Jungle” and Mr. Sinclair. Once upon a time an unsuspecting public imagined they had read a book filled with lurid aftacks upon the awful trusts—thought they had seen some crookedness exposed. 6tr. Upton Sin clair even made money out of their so thinking. Congress got busy on the same account. Now they have discovered It was all a mistake. "The Jungle" Is a very quiet, conservative and lady-llke story. "The Sweet Clclly Sisters” are going to put It In their library. Why? Well, "The Jungle" has been outjungled. Lis ten to this: "I regard John D. Rockefeller as the greatest thief the world ever produced —greater than Charles the First or Louis XVI—and the greatest living hypocrite. Ills donations to the church are to close the mouth of the pulpit. He knows that If the pulpits of the country were to open up on his com mercial crimes he would be In the pen itentiary. I wrote my book, ‘The Strug gle,' for the avowed purpose of placing John D. Rockefeller In the peniten tiary."—Tapp. The man who put John D. Rockefel ler In the penitentiary—In a novel la a lawyer of Atlanta, Ga. He Is likewise the man who exposed Tom Taggart’s gambling Joint In French Lick Springs, resulting In the E rosecutlon of the chairman of the lemocratlc national committee. The Georgia author says he expects his book to revolutionise American sen timent to such an extent that the Standard Oil magnate will get In reali ty what hla counterpart In Ihe novel got—not less than 20 years. The pictures drawn In Tapp's novel are so sharp and clear that they are easily recognized. For Instance, John Suckelow, with neither hair nor eye brows and able to eat only crackers and milk, and one of the greatest com mercial pirates the world has ever seen, haa been Identified by the critics as John D. Pont Slogan A Co.'s office, where all the villainy was perpetrated, haa been recognised as a very good picture of the headquarters of J. Plerpont Mor gan, Wall street, New York. J. Ogden Armour has a double In Ihe book, and It la said that the people of North Carolina have identified one of the characters ns John B. Duke, the tobac co trust man. It la also said that the people nf Georgia have recognized a similarity between John Horton, of the novel, «nJ Hamilton McWhorter, the "Bill Phelps'' of the Southern railway. The novel has created a sensation throughout the South. It Is a terrible arraignment of the trusts anil trust masters, whose com mercial tyranny Is depicted with great force by the author of the novel. The hook Is called "The .Struggle," anil It starts out by picturing the beau tiful home of a Blue Grass farmer surrounded by the happiness that should be Ills under normal commer cial conditions. Then the story shows the results of "trustlsm," and with fine strokes of sarcasm draws characters that are readily recognised as the heads of several of the country's greatest combinations of capital. The author Is making no verification nr denial of Identifications. It Is said lhat a man who thinks he Is the origi nal of one of the characters In the book has threatened to prosecute ths author. It would be a back-handed stroke of fate If a book written for the avowed purpose of sending the trust magnates to the penitentiary should land Its author In Jail. "The book Is a problematical novel dealing with the industrial and com mercial conditions of onr times,” ssld Tapp. “I wrote It to show up the Infamy of the trust magnates, and to S rove, by deduction, thnt the Anglo- axon race Is capable of Hif-govern- ment. Of course, It has a love story, but around that Is Woven the facta that deal with our times. 1 visited French Lick Springs In July and witnessed the gambling ex hibition In Taggart's establishment. I then made the revelations that started the ball rolling and resulted In his In dictment and the closing of his gam bling resort." Tapp Is a graduate of the University of Chicago, which Is supported largely by the Rockefeller millions he attarks so venomously In his book. He was presidential elector from Georgia on the Democratic ticket In 1904, and la the author of the "Story of Anglo- Saxon Institutions," which Is now used as a text book In American and Euro pean colleges. ••• $25,362 PAID AS PREMIUM ON LIFE INSURANCE POLICY TON F. JACKSON, ATLANTA Reports of miracles are not wanting again this year from Lourdes. One of the most pathetic of them le the case of a girl of 18 who suffered from heart disease and had been given up for dead, who, on the host suddenly pass ing, sat up on her stretcher and Jumped to the floor. There are 40,000 stricken pilgrims now at Lourdes, engaged In prayer and suppllcntlon, and the scenes of excite ment—almost frensy—and anguish are very remarkable. The question of the weekly day of rest now become law In Paris, Is ex citing many classes of society. The law makes no mention of domestic ser vants. hut this body has now started an agitation to be given the same priv ileges as people engaged In shops and factories. Another privilege that domestic ser vants are clamoring for—those of the innle persuasion—Is the privilege to wear moustaches. The rest law Is also agitating the body where one would least expect lo find It. The policemen, who hare hitherto had one day off In ten, now- claim that they, too, should be brought In line with the law, and given a day of rest weekly. Manager Nat F. Jackson, of the Fidelity Mutual Lite's Atlanta office, lays claim to having written during the past week for his company the largest single premium life Insurance policy, ever taken In the South. The application wae secured by 51r. Arllne, of Savannah, who recently became'Mr. Jackson's partner tn the management, nnd the amount of the policy Is >50.000. The Insured Is a well-known financier of Savannah, and In payment of the premium he gave his check for the lump sum of M6.M2. No further pay ments will have to be made on the policy. A life Insurance policy of an equal umount was also written this week In Atlanta by Manager John 8. Cowles, of the Metropolitan Life, who, until early this year, wae executive special agent of the Mutual Life, and who, since go ing with the Metropolitan, has reor ganised the Atlanta force until It Is the strongest office that company boasts In,the South. The policy men tioned was on ths life of a business man of large Interests, who took tpp policy aa a special protection to his creditors, a practice that Is now meet ing with great favor all over the coun try. The annual premium on this pol icy la >3,100. Mr. Cowles has steadily held first place as regards business written personally among nil the ngems of the company In the United States and Canada, which, considering thnt the company has nearly one million workers, Is a striking tribute to the quality of men that are attracted tq Atlanta ns a business center. PR OPER1YO WNERS INSURED AGAINST THE LOSS OF RENT A variety of Insurance of which property owners know ordinarily very little, and to which, strange to say, not many fire Insurance agents pay much attention. Is rent Insurance. This form Is written In connection with fire In surance by a number of leading com panies and Insures to the owner of the property the amount of rent he would lose In case the building covered should burn and he thereby be deprived of the Income from It for the time required to repair and put It In Ite former condi tion. In order that a property owner shall be fully Indemnified against loss In cass of fire such a policy Is an ab solute necessity on almost any kind of property, for a fire cuts off the Income as surely as a bad accident completely crlpplee a man’s productive powers for u time nt least. A recent fire In Augusta, which dam aged the Phlnlxy building, was covered under a policy of rent Insurance of the amount of >10,000 for one year. The repairs took about six months nnd the owner of the building recovered from the Insurance company 15,000, or the full amount of the rentB for that period. A well-known Atlanta general agent In the course of conversation not long ago made the astonishing statement that not one-quarter of the mercantile buildings and dwellings In the city of Atlanta were protected by tills form of Insurance.
