Peel has Issued the following communication regarding directors' tickets of the Mutual Life Insurance Company: To the Editor of The Georgian: I beg to answer, through the medjum of your paper, the many Inquiries I am receiving from policyholders 'ot the Mutual Life Insurance Company reference to the difference between the united committee's ticket and the fusion ticket. The united committee's ticket la what Is known as the “Policy Holders' ticket." It was made up by the Mu tual Life Policy Holders' Association and the International Policy Holders' Association. The fusion ticket was filed with the insurance commissioner by an attor ney at law In New York, who refuses to disclose for whom he Is acting. My name was placed on this ticket with out my knowledge or consent; and in asmuch as a number of policyholders have expressed a desire to vote for Charles E. Hughes, the attorney for the Armstrong Investigating commit tee and the present Republican candi date for governor of New York, whose name heads the fusion ticket, I will state that Mr. Hughes says that his name was placed on this ticket with out his consent and that ho will not serve If elected. My name was placed on the united committees' ticket by my consent, and I have agreed to serve if elected. Therefore, I advise the policyholders to vote for the united committees' ticket. BaUots or proxies should be mailed to the International Policyholders’ As sociation, No. 30 ^road street, New York; or. If mailed to me here, I will acknowledge receipt of them, examine and see If they are In order, and will place them at the proper time with the voting committee. Yours Respectfully, W. L. PEEL.

By EDWIN CAMP. If there wera any words that rhyme with circus besides the Impossible •■percusa" and "Jerk us" and "work us,' one might start oil this story with a dainty little ditty. "There’ll be nt> parade" und "pink lemonade" Just fit In fine, hut "circus" Is one too numer ous for the Swinburne of the shop, so he'll make the plain announcement that— The Greatest Show on Earth has arrived In Atlanta and has unloaded lor n two days' stay In our midst, Frldaying and Saturdaylng here, with two iiertormances each day and the grand concert immediately after the chariot race. Don't forget the grand concert, ladles and gents. So, backward, turn backward, O time In thy lllght, and make ue a kid again Just for tonight or tomorrow night, the latter being preferred Inasmuch as Saturday Is pay day. The poetical ulloeution comes In good, because we’ve all got to go to eee the circuit and some of us have affected to put away childish things and those of us some that lack the Justification of little ones to carry along are strictly up against It lest our reputed dignity suffer. For we must see that circus. In the balmy sunshine of this per fect day, there la only one disappoint ment about this circus. There'll be no parade. The Barnum & Bailey people advance pretty good reasons for. not having parade, but argument doesn’t satisfy soul hunger. And—here's a tip cn a queer charac teristic of the people—there were hun dreds of men, women and children of Atlanta who came up town and hung "mind In the streets for hours Fri day morning walling for the circus parade. , to all of the advertisements, the Bailey people said plainly Barnum that there would bo no parade, In ev ery newepaper story printed about the coming of the big show, It was posi tively set forth that this feature would be lacking. But "What, No Parade?" Who ever heard of a circus without a parade, any more than an ele-hant without a trunk? said vox pnpull Into their own cars. And to prove the ab surdity of the paradox, the pnpull came to town and stood around, first on one leg and then on the other, un ■ II afternoon, when they caught cars and went out to Jackson and Wheut streets to see what was the matter. Did you ever see a circus unload 1 Home years ago, when the Greatest Show on Earth was touring Europe, Prince Blsmnrck watched It unload. Then he said to Der Kaiser: "Hooh, Willie, I thought der Oerr army had some discipline though, but those guys enn gtvo us cards, spades, and big casino and win the pot without dealing from the bottom. Hadn’t you better hire the boss and let him try to put n little system Into the imperial cohorts?" It's sort o' like this: Two or three trains, of about thirty cars each, come chugging In, each pulled by a double-header. Before they cornu to a full stop, 200 men Jump off the platform and out of windows nnd start running In different direc tions like two football teams right after the kick-off. In ten minutes a hundred horses and a score of ele phants are at work pulling and push ing big wage as, stakes are being driver, fur the tent, thirty cooke ate running a Titanic restaurant, and the work Is on. For throe hours there Is to the un skilled eye such a chaos of confualoi ns was never seen, when suddenly there comes a lull, and the circus Is ready for the. performance, whereupon the spieler takes a throat spray to loosen Use and Beauty in Wedding Gifts Says a recent writer: As by some magic skill tho utilitarian pin and button, the back-comb, even the prtttalc eyeglass, are transformed, and become costly Jewel-set objects d’art. The casserole and homely pudding dish, the bottle for table sauce and siphon for 'toby have been prettily disguised In trappings of pierced sil ver, and so on ad Infinitum. Use and beauty!
