Diamond Dust.
It is stated here that Jimmy Long
has been signed and will report Mon
day. This is funny, for he has signed
to play in Binghampton, N. Y.. and ac
cepted advance money from them two
weeks ago.
Frank Hill, an old favorite in Atlanta,
will play center field for Charleston
this year. He passed through here !
last week.
“Toad'’ Ramsay, the once king of
pitchers, is on the Savannah’s pay roll
this season.
President Nicklin will announce his
staff of umpires next week. It is not
even hinted who will be the unfortu
nates.
In the game with Al. Marshall's team
today the Atlanta team will make its
initial bow to an Atlanta audience, and
the fans can pick out those whom they
want to retain, and let the remainder
be released. Os course, some of their
objections will not meet with Manager
Sullivan's approval, and as he generally
does as best suits himself, he will not
be likely to gratify the whims of a set
of cranks who think they know it all.
Trust it to Sullivan. He'll get there.
The umpire must remain behind the
home plate in judging balls and strikes,
according to a late ruling of the rule j
eoinmiUee of the National League, j
The catcher can exclaim with impunity
now: “ Get thee behind me. Satan."
In his practice yesterday Kissinger
pushed balls over the plate so speedy j
that they resembled small marbles.
Where are the usual prizes that are
offered at the beginning of the season
for the best base runner, batter and
other special features'? Somebody
start it off and then watch the rivals
play for the trophies.
Baltimore plays here Monday and ;
Tuesday, and the regular season opens
Wednesday with Macon, our old time |
rival. Os course. there will be a big
crowd here from the Central City, and
each club will be full of ginger and
work hard for victory.
‘•One Fact is Worth a Thousand
Theories.”
The “20 Payment Life Coupon An
unity” policy now offered by the Union
Central Life Insurance Company, re
moves every objection heretofore urged |
against life insurance.
Many have fancied in buying mere ;
‘‘estimates” or “illustrations” of a set
tlement to take place 20 years hence,
that they were making a sure provision
for old age, but on the day of settle- ?
ment facts take the place of fancy,
when too late the policy holder realizes
that he was buying theories only, as his
policy, which was his only title to the
money, contained no such agreement.
He is then old and poor and censures
his own credulity in listening to the
agent’s talk, instead of seeing that the
warranties were plainly recorded in the
policy. Every agent claims that his
company will pay the largest dividends
and live up to their estimates, and all
can show where rival companies do not.
Then would it not be wise for every
insurer to exact warranties specifically
recorded in the policy, as to what the
company will do, instead of theories as
to what the company might do?
It is just as important to be protected
against poverty in old age as against
death.
Many men die young; many attain
old age in poverty and are forced to eat
the bread of dependence. One father '
can support a dozen children, but how
many children does it require to sup
port one father? Think of it—how can
you best protect your family, your
estate, and your own declining years?
Here is the answer, incontrovertable:
Buy $20,000 20 Payment Life Coupon
Policy. It will cost you $777.00 per
year. In 20 years, if you live, it will
have cost you $15,552. You then have
a paid up policy due at death, $20,000, ,
and 20 coupons for SB2O each, payable
annually, $16,400: or a gross paid-up
policy for $41,020; or your paid-up
policy due at death. $20,000, and the
privilege of commuting the coupons
into cash, SIO,OOO ; or commuting the
entire contract into cash, $18,280.
The contract guarantees to loan,
after five or more annual premiums
have been paid, as follows:
sth Year. 10th Year. 15th Year. 20th year.
$2,400. $5,380. $9,140. $18,280.
Or give extendended insurance or paid
up values, viz: After three years, paid
up policy for $3,000, and cash at ma
turity, 81,500, and as many proportional
parts all the way through, both in cash
and paid-up insurance, thus insuring
the policy-holder a ainst loss in any
event after three or more annual pre
miums.
The loan value available is of vital
importance, rendering it a “quick
asset” in time of financial stringency,
and should commend it to men of sa
gacity and business ability.
If money was obtained on real estate
mortgage, the borrower would have to
find a lender, pay his rate of interest,
attorney's fees for examining title, and
commission, possibly to a broker for
obtaining the loan, or go without it.
Think of what a convenience this con
tract would be.
Mr. H. H. Cobb, 305 Equitable build
ing, is manager for the Union Central
Life Insurance Co., and will be pleased
to give further information, if re
quested.
THE DIVORCE SUIT.
Everything Promises a Splendid Suc
cess Monday Night.
The Press Club entertainment Mon
day7 night promises to be one of the
jolliest affairs in the history of At
lanta. The details of the programme
are pretty well known. “The Divorce
Suit,” a witty skit, packed full of local
“gays,” will be put on by 7 home talent,
and a great many novel specialties in
troduced.
One of the best of these will be Alex
Dealer’s costume impersonation of
Uncle Rastus.
The piece has been thoroughly re
hearsed, and is certain to pass off
without a jar. The Quadrant Club,
which lias arranged and managed the
entire show, deserves a great deal of
credit, and it is hoped that a handsome
sum will be realized.
Its List (.rowing.
It is brighter and more sparkling than
ever. Its flue illustrations and spicy
local hits have already obtained for it
several thousand readers, and its list is
growing each week—Atlanta Journel.
