12 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.
