Hornsby took charge of the Cardi

knew his men and set about immedi.

was rated as a dangerous outfit, but
it lacked the balance and polish to
make it a real factor in the National
league fight. The Cardinalgs packed

Mr. Hardy is at present writing for |
himself and his wife, and mayhap for!
a few old cherished friends. E
The Hardy residence nestles amidst '
this lovely, rvolling countryside, thel
sotting of many of hig great workrz.l
Forty vears ago he planned the com. |
fortable, red brick and stone home ini
which he has since lived. He called |
it Max Gate, !
About the house he created gardens '
and planted (rees to suit his own'
fancy. He is a great lover of nature.!

Max Gate is surrounded on three
sides by the Duchy of Cornwall. which
i: now owned by the present Prince
cf Wales. The young prince and the
aged writer are great friends.
‘ Mr. Hardy recelves comparatively
few visitors these days, for he is get
ltln: feeble. Nor does he venture far
from home, but takes little walks
Inbout his estate, and sometimes steps
isout for a bit onto the quiet country

|Wool. He likes to be about among
Ihis trees and flowers, and especially
lenjoys the bird life In his grounds.
IFor years he has made his place as
nearly a bird sanctuary as possible.
Not long ago he himself helped to
lflx numerous bird houses among the
trees, and he feeds his feathered
friends regularly.
Mrs. Hardy, who is younger, has
ll«mg played the part of amanuensis

'gmnt culture and is herself a writer,

[ the present, |
‘ “As a general thing, Ido not be
lieve that the wives of famous authors
should attempt to write,” said Mrs,
Hardy. “They should be satisfied to
’ansist their husbands and be content
! with the reflected glory.
' “It seems to me that the wife of
a great writer makes herself appear
foolish if she rushes into print—that
is, unless she herself is a genius, I

THE BANKING SITUATION
To the Editor of The Telegraph:
We clip the following from your
issue of September .
CORDELE, Ga., September 1
—Judge D. A. R. Crum, of the
Cordele circuit, has refused to
apprtzv.e amounts of a thousand
dollars each from the Pineview
Rochelle and Abbeville closed
banks as fees for 0. A. Park, of
Macon, and Luther Roberts
and Carl Davis, Atlanta lawyers
named by T. R. Bennett. superin
tendent of banks, because they
were deemed as excessive. The
court also declined $2O a day
and eipenses for the auditors
in these tiree banks.
‘Judge Crum had no authority
in the appointment of lawyers,
auditors, and agents, but held it
his mlfimrity to rcject the fees
as excessive and did so.
The petition for fees for the
lawyers and auditors was filed a
month ago by Mr. Bennett. The
form is printed and apparently
the same fees have been asked
for these lawyers in all the 80
odd banks, making more tlmn
$BO,OOO for the lawyers alone.
Mr. Bennett asked in addition,
oxpen&es of 10 percent of
amounts colliected (i!;:niit'es due:
the closed banks for the ‘three
lawyars and such other fees as .
the superintendent of banks
may deem necessaty from tifme
to time,
Hurrah for Judge Crum. His
sonso' of justice would not allow him
to approve this most unreasonable
and unjust ciaim made by Mr. Bon-l
neir, supm-intendefit of state banks, !
a thousand dollars for each of ‘:hol
three lawyers out of the money de-|
posited in the Pineview, Rochelle
and Abbeville banks, by laboring
people, business men. What service
did these lawyers perform for these
banks, their depositors, and stock
holders. Did these three banks em
ploy these lawyers,
The money in those banks did not!
belong to the state banking dopart-!;
ment or to the state of Georgia, but |
belonged to the stockholders and the‘
depositors and should have been |
! left in the banks where it was, i
- Let the stockholders settle the
matter among themselves or in tho‘
' home courts. They are the ones to
| say what they could and would do
! or whether they want lawyers or not

From School Teacher |
To Great Eminence |
A young man who was brought up on |
a farm in Western Pennsylvania studied
diligently and qualified for district school |
teacher. Further pursuing his studies and '
teaching, he managed to save ug enough |
money to ‘;:ul him thru medical college.
He began the practice of medicine in the
new oil section of Pa. i
He was a student of hature, knew and
could easily recognize most of the medicinal
plants growing in the woods.
Later, he moved to Bufalo, N. Y, where
l he launched his favorite remedics, and in
~ a short time, they were sold by cvery drug
- gistin the land. Today, the name of this
f man, Dr, R. V. Pierce, is known through
' out the world. His Golden Medical Dis
' covery is the best known blood medicine
| and tonic. More than fifty million bottles
i have been sold in the U. S, 1f your drug
gist does not sellthe Golden Medical Dis
' cover{, in liquid or tablets, you can obtain
a trial pkg. of the tablets by sending 10¢
to the Dr. Pierce Clinic, in Buffalo, N, Y.
fectly safe.
The state banking department
shouid be doing all within its power
to heip these banks reopen instead
of dra2zging them down by trying to
get funds out of them to pay law
yer fees. If there is a Gerogia lav
that =llows such pracedure then it's
rotten legizlation and the people arc
in the dark. It 160 ks like the enter
prising newspapers in’ the state
would turn on' the light by printing
the law in regard to the matter and’
