4 JUNE WEDDINGS ON m i RUSH First Two Days of the Month Bring 42 Atlanta Romeos to Ordinary’s Office. The magic effect of June is shown these days by the rush at the ordinary's office that has been on since first th<- “Month of Weddings'' opened. During the two days that the office has been open in June no less than 42 Atlanta men ,have sought license to leave the reallns of bachelordom. Hard ly had the yffii.-e opened on the first of the montyAvhen young men appeared in tlte ffi/or. A blanched face and an air of /■J-never-.an-face-it” told th.* clerk what was wanted And license book was pulled off the shelf. Young Romeo was succeeded by another who differed scarcely at all from the first one. Through the day the rush continued. Ordinary AVilkin -son noticed that much of the routine work of the office was being omitted and called to one of his clerks. Th* simple explanation. “It’s June, sir," told the reason and the rush went on. June has a more potent effect on youth, say the poets, and the records on the ordinary's books bear them out. One prospective bridegroom on the list is over 28 and his bride's age is given as 21. Os the remainder neatly three fourths are at the 21-19 period of life, when the irresistible force of June can nnt he denied. Is Coffee a Poison?

Legislature s First Robin Here BILL BLEVINS IS PEEVED Bill Blevins, of the county of Glynn, has arrived. Mr. Blevins is to the legislature what the first robin is to I summer, first harbinger of the nested days to come. He usually arrives about a week before the first roll call and strives earnestly to land a place as doorkeeper of the house or messenger for the senate or custodian for the cap itol dome. Bill never was particular, always maintaining that his name on the state pay roll was really the most important detail of his ambition to serve his commonwealth. But Mr. Blevins was peeved today. He leaned against a pillar In the Kim ball house corridor and complained querelously that Mr. Kimball was not bestowing that attention to his busi ness which should mark the keeper of such a hostelry as this. Loafers Driving Away Trade. “Hit’s these here cheer Warmers." Mr. Blevins asseverated. “Look at’em. Count ’em. They drap inter them leather cheers hefo’ breakfus and thar they sets One of 'em drttps a mawnln’ paper he borrowed off’n somebody else. The neares' man reaches out an gits It, an’ the feller nex' to him has to wait until hit's plum wore out. "That old feller with the billy goat whiskers has held down that cheer nex’ to the <nd till he’s sunk sech a hole In it I bet they pull hint out at night with a bootjack, If he ever gits out, which 1 has my doubts. I've seen him IHE Al LAM A GEORGIAN AND NEW 8. 1 LEbl>A 1, J LAL 4,191 Z. , settin’ thar for fo’ summers, an’ unless > his little boy brings him his meals hit’s , a wonder to me he ain’t starved plum I to death. That feller with the wooden laig, he’s in his same old seat* he wa_s ! settin' in the day Hoke Smith fired 1 Little Joe Brown, which I remember ' well, an’ it looks like the same old leg which hit might well be, for the Lawd knows he ain't had no occcasion to wear It out. There used to be a man with a wen what claimed that last 1 cheer on the far side, but I reckon he's dead. Anyway, I ain't seen him today. “Regular Customer” Stands Up. “Hit does appear to me that Colonel Kimball might come out an’ speak to them old fellers kinder nice and polite, and show ’em how they’re drivin’ away trade. Look at me. now, a regular cus tomer for ten years, fo'ced to stand up and lean agin a post. I'm goin’ to get plum' disgusted and move up to the Piedmont some day.” "Why don't you go up to your room, Mr. Blevins, and take a rest?” inquired the sympathizer into whose ears the story of distress had been poured. "Well, you see,” returned Mr. Blev ins. "whilst I'm a reg’lar customer, as 1 might say, I ain’t got no reg’lar room. When I comes to town I live’s with my wife's cousins out by the Oaklan’ semi nary, and after breakfus I jes’ tote a little snack of vittles in my pocket and come up to the hotel to mix round amongst my frien's. But J been cornin' for ten year, an' hit do seem like 1 was entitled to some speshul consideration. Ain’t I right?” SHR INER S TO SEE BASEBALL GAME Atlanta Shriners will take charge of Ponce DeLeon park tomorrow. It is Shriners’ day at the baseball game. A large class is to be initiated and the occasion will be celebrated all aft ernoon. The Initiation will be beld at night in the St. Nicholas skating rink across the street from the baseball park. The celebration will begin at 2:30 o’clock, when the new Arab patrol, which has just received its uniforms, will leave the Masonic temple headed by the Fifth Regiment band. The pa rade will pass up Peachtree and White hall streets to Mitchell, down Mitchell to Broad, down Broad to Alabama, on Alabama back to Whitehall and on Peachtree to Walton ' street, where special cars to the ball grounds will be boarded.* When the paraders reach Ponce De- Leon park the Arab patrol will give a drill on the diamond. Patrol and sabre drills will be given there. The fancy drills will not be given tn public, but will be performed before the Shriners in the skating rink. After the game the nobles will ad journ across the park to the old amusement park, where an old-fashion ed Georgia barbecue will be served. Fol lowing the barbecue they will meet in the St. Nicholas skating rink for the initiation of one of the largest classes in the history of the Atlanta lodge. ’ ALTRURIANS PLAN PARADISE HERE Dr. Fealy, Occult Leader, Pro poses “Vibration” Sanita rium for Perfect Living. Georgia is soon to have a retreat where students of the occult may sit at the feet of the Yogi without journey ing to the' peaks of the Himalayas, if Dr. L. A. Fealy, of Ireland, India and Birmingham, carries out his plans. Dr. Fealy is in Atlanta today after a lecture to his followers who compose the Altru rlan society, and has just returned from a visit to Madison. Ga., where he pro poses to establish his retreat and sani tarium. Atlanta has not been the haunt of Swamis and Yogis in Oriental robes, most of its apostles of the occult carry ing on their researches in small and sjign-emblazoned tents, where for a small piece of silver they delve into the unknown and emerge with a fortune In store for each and every applicant. But Dr. Fealy is not one of these. He is said to have a most extensive and at the same time lucrative clientele in Birmingham, and his income is only equalled by his lavishness In charitable work. He lectured last night at the Carnegie library and this afternoon and evening ’ will address his class, members of the Altrurian society, at the Piedmont. Believe Absolutely in Him. Just how many Atlanta women are of his cult is hard to determine, but the Altrurlans believe absolutely and im plicitly in Dr. Fealy and his work. They say he is a great healer, a master of the science of vibrations, and to his all seeing eye there Is neither distance nor matter. The writer sat in the drawing..room of the home of a north side woman of social prominence as she spoke of Fealy the Yogi and his work. "He is a master," she said. “In him I have perfect faith. 1 have studied under the great Hindoo mystics who have visited Boston and New York, and I have known Dr. Fealy for a year. I do not merely believe in his powers—l know. "It is all vibrations. Matter is mere ly vibrations. There is really no such thing as matter. That chair is merely one form of vibrations, the table is an other. Change its vibrations and you change it into something else. When one is ill his vibrations are disarranged. The Yogi knows what is wrong and by his will corrects it. "It isn’t exactly theosophy, nor Budd hism, nor any one creed. We take the best from all. Buddha, Mohammed, Christ —they are all accepted as great leaders. Our law is ‘the law of perfect peace to every living creature.’ The nearer one attains this state the nearer one approaches perfection. We have been studying under Dr. Fealy for many months. Some of us have learned a great deal. Oh, yes. he believes in re incarnation. What we can not attain in this life we may gain in our next incarnation. Became Yogi in India. "Dr. Fealy is Irish, a graduate of Trinity college in Dublin, and King's college, of London. He is about 46 years of age. When young he devel oped tuberculosis, and physicians or dered him to the south of Italy. He had. made preparations to leave when a stranger approached him on the street and told him of a retreat far in the re mote passes of the Indian Himalayas, and Dr. Fealy went there instead. He made his way into the forbidden coun try and there met a mystic brother hood, the leaders of the cult of which he is now a follower. He recovered his health and under their teaching, cov ering a number of years, became a Yogi.” For some time Dr. Fealy has con ducted a sanitarium and retreat in Bir mingham, but it was burned a short time ago. He now proposes establish ing a larger sanitarium at Madison, not far from Atlanta, where the quiet and repose should be conducive to medita tion, and a disciple of his cult may "loaf and invite his soul" without the distractions of auto horns and trolley wheels.
