PEACHTREE
It is certain now that on the strong tide of an advancing
market, everything on Peachtree out to Ponce DeLeon will go
to SI,OOO a front foot.
Discriminating buyers who secure lots that are especially
well located, either corners or lots running through to other
streets, will possess one good asset-in a piece of Peachtree front
age. This property is fast becoming fancy and rare. We have
a few (a very few) small Peachtree investments that are a little
better than the average. They are about the size that a young
fellow can handle and make money on.

*Mary' Dies Mourning Raggsy Jones
LOVED MASTER TO END
Mournful Mary is dead. A patrol
man found her lying in a wagon yard
not far from the police station today,
and a half dozen of the fellows around
headquarters took a collection to have
her decently buried. There wasn’t any
service and not a single flower, but.
many a kind word for Mary was spoken
by the men who had known her for
several years.
They say she grieved herself to death
for Raggsy Jones. Raggsy failed to
come round after his last attack of see
ing things which really were not there,
and they buried him about two weeks
ago. Mournful Mary had been more
melancholy than ever since then.
Faithful to Raggsy to Last.
Mary was just a dog—a half-starved,
flea-bitten, faithful little cur 4f un
known ancestry and of no particular
mark of race —but she loved Raggsy
Jones even when he was sb far down
in the social scale that the sots in De
catur street dodged into the alleys
when they saw him coining and feared
he was ready for another touch.
Raggsy was pinched as fast as he
came from the stockade. He was al
ways broke, always dirty, but he could
always land the price of a drink If he
kept off the streets he sometimes ob
tained the bliss of a real drunk and
delirium tremens and then the ambu
lance came for him. But usually it
was the patrol wagon. And always
Mournful .Mary was trailing at his
1 heels.
Follows Him to Stockade.
Sometimes a good-natured patrolman
| would lift Mary by the scruff of her
neck and let her ride with her master,
but when the officer on the beat was

in a bad humor and kicked her off the
step ii made little difference to Mary.
She ran under the wagon until they
took Raggsy out. and lay in the shady
i nrridor outside his cell. When the au
tomobile patrol took the place of the
old Rlack Maria the dog was left be
hind. but she knew the wax to the sta
tion from any corner of Atlanta and
always arrived, paming, sohn after
Raggsy had sunk into slumber on his
cot.
When Raggsy went to the stockade
Mournful Mary followed the big van,
and at the stockade she lived until her
master had served his 30 days and
emerged for another drunk. A sen
tence for Jones meant a sentence for
Mournful Mary. She went out with the
street gang and chased bugs while
Raggsy swung a pick. Shn shared in
the lunch of the men in shackles and
fared better there than in the brief
intervals when Raggsy was free, for
he bothered about nobody but himself,
and most of his meals were served from
a bottle in which Mary could not share.
Mary Refuses To Be Consoled.
Rut they burled Raggsy Jones and
then Mary had no master. Half a
dozen acquaintances tried to adopt he»\
hut she refused to make friends. She
trotted from barroom to barroom,
smelling at the heels which lined the
rail, searching always for Raggsy, and
never finding him. A day or tw o ago she
failed to make her rounds, and today
the patrolman found her in the wagon
yard. She couldn’t have starved, for
the yard is covered with scraps of
farmers’ lunches. The boys around the
statinn think she grieved herself to
death.

jewels have become a necessity as well
as a luxury, according to a decision
handed down by the Indiana appellate
court in an appeal Wy Dr. \\ iiliaiti
Cooper, who took a young woman for
his second wife.
The physician had been inclined to
ward the simple life, but he told his
bride, who was Miss Jennie Story, an
employee of a millinery shop, that after
their marriage she could have fine jew
elry. He gave her a $l5O diamond as
an engagement ring.
Dr. Cooper owned $75,000 worth of
property. He was 65 years old and
somewhat economical, but the new
Mis Cooper, was fond of the raiment.
After , the marriage ceremony it is
said that the physician did not come
up to the young wife’s expectations in
money tya tiers, so she visited the jew
elry stores and ran up a bill of about
$250, and the husband refused to settle.
| Then he was sued. The judge decided
against him and he appealed.
