By the way, the Major now boastB nineteen nifeces and nephews, forty-one grand nieces and nephews, two grand children, and one great-grandchild.

Mealor, oneef Newnan’s most ei tunable women, which occurred on Friday last at her home on Salbide avenue. Deceased had been an inva lid for several months, and, while her death was not altogether unexpected, it was nevertheless a shock as well a a source of deep sorrow to her many friends. She is survived by her hus band and two children, the latter being Mrs.G. F. Bullard, of Alabama,and Wal ter Mealor, of this city. The funeral took place Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock, from the First Baptist church, services being conducted by her pastor. Rev. E. W. Stone. The interment was at Oak Hilh While the condition of R. G. Allen, 27-year-old son of Dr. W. A. Allen, of 65 Jones street, continues serious, physicians at Grady Hospital state that the young man has a chance to recover from a compound fracture of the Bkull. Allen was injured at 7 o'clock Thurs day morning when a motorcycle on which he wsb riding crashed into a pile of crossties on the Howell Mill road. With Allen at the time of his accident was J. F. Daffenbaugh. The latter carried the injured man to Grady Hos pital in a passing automobile. —Atlanta Constitution, 10th inst. Young Allen is a son of Mrs. W. A. Allen, who was buried here Sunday af ternoon, and a nr phew of Mr. J. N. Kereey, of this city. Mrs. Lizzie Augusta Allen, wife of Dr. W. A. Allen, died Saturday morn ing at her home in Atlanta. Her re mains were brought to Newnan Sunday afternoon, and after a short funeral service at the grave, conducted by Rev. E. W. Stone, they were interred in Oak Hill cemetery. Deceased was a native of Coweta and for some time after her marriage resided in this county, but for several years before her death had made her home in Atlanta. She was 54 years of age, and, besides her husband, leaves four children — Miss Alma Allen, Miss Audrey Allen, John B. Allen and Raymond Allen—all of Atlanta. She was a sister of Mr. J. N. Kersey and sister-in-law of Mrs. W. II. Kersey, of this city. Mr. H. C. Arnall, sr., one of the trustees, and Hon. Garland Jones, number of the legislative com mittee appointed by Speaker Bur- well to investigate conditions at the State School for the Deaf at Cave Spring, visited that institution in their official capacities Tuesday. During the late session of the Legislature one of Bibb county’s Representatives made sensational charges involving not only the management of the school, but reflecting seriously upon the character ef the principal, Dr. W. O. Connor. At a joint meeting of the trustees and the legislative committee Tuesday the charges were thoroughly investigated and found to be groundless. Dr. Con nor’s administration of the institution’s affairs was warmly approved, both the trustees and the legislative committee joining in this indorsement. The death of Mrs. Pauline Faver Camp, which occurred yesterday morn ing at her home on Spring street, was a great shock to the community and cause of deep sorrow to her many friends. About four weekB ago she was prostrated from an attack of neu ralgia—an affliction from which she had suffered at intervals for a number of years. Some days later she was seized with fever of a malignant type, and it was this attack that caused her death. It is not possible to appraise within the limitations of this brief notice the many admirable traits of this brilliant and lovable woman. Enough to say that, she was universally loved and esteemed, and that her untimely taking off will be widely and sincerely mourned. She leaves two children, Tom Lee Camp and Miss Ellen Camp, and is survived also by her mother, Mrs. Ellen S. Fa ver. of this city, a brother, Mr John D. Faver, and a sister, Mrs Neil Glass, both of LaGrange. The funeral will take place this afternoon at half-past 3 o’clock, from the First Methodist church.

Under an order of the Postoffice De partment which became effective Sept. 1, shippers of parcel post matter are now enabled to insure tneir packages to an amount up to $100. The increase in the amount of insurance allowed is covered in the following provision: "Fourth claSB matter shall not be registered, b t may be insured against loss in any amount equivalent to its actual value, hut not to exceed $5 in any one case on payment of a fee of 3 centa; not to exceed $25 on payment of a fee of 5 cents; not to exceed $50 on payment of a fee of 10 cents; and not to exceed $100 on payment of a fee of 25 cents, iri addition to the postage, both to be prepaid by stamps affixed; hut indemnity will not he allowed In case of loss of Hiich mall addressed to the Philippine Islands, unless the losa occurred in the postal service of the United States. ” A further provision permits a letter bearing first class postage to he ul tached to the outside of a parcel post package of third or fourth-class mat ter, the latter to he properlv prepaid at the rate applicable to the parcel. Letters and purcels mailed together in this manner reach ihe addressee at the Bame time, which is often desirable as well as convenient. A receipt will be given the Hender of a fourth-class parcel upon payment ol 1 cent in addition to the regular post age. ThiB receipt does not insure the parcel, however. When such receipts are desired by patrons residing on rural routes the parcel should be de livered to the carrier, payment being made at the rate of 1 cent for each parcel. The carrier will obtain re ceipts at the postoffice to which he is attached, affix stamp, postmark, and deliver the receipts to the senders on his next trip. Card of Thanks.
