GJ. CALLED IDEAL fomGEm Thomas Stevens Also Finds Much Material in Atlanta for Historical Review. Members of the Atlanta Art associa tion are awaiting with keen interest the appointment of a committee by Mrs. S. M. Inman, the president, to consider details of the great historical pageant to be held in Atlanta. When the committee is appointed it will 'pro ceed to take tip plans for the event, considering the cost of carrying it through, the revenue that may be ex pected and the details of its arrange ments. Thomas Woods Stevens, of the Chi cago Art Institute, in an address to the association in the Capital City club told of the important points to be brought out in the pageant, and the most striking scenes and the best way to present them. He declared Georgia and Atlanta offer more dramatic his torical scenes than any state and city he has visited. "Probably' the coming of Oglethorpe from a debtor's prison tn free Amer ica to make the place in history he did Is of more dramatic interest than ar.v part of Georgia’s history.” said Mr. Sevens. Not M®rely a Street Parade. “In the pageant we want to bring out such points. We do not want to have merely a street parade. We want life and reality in it from the start to the finish, and should bring out char acters and events. Pick out some of the great accomplishments of the city' and present them in a dramatic man ner Make each scene a place In it self. separate from all the rest, that every Important part of it may be presented in its entirety. "Amateurs can carry the parts as well as professionals. When they ap pear in a pageant they are before the people only a few moments and in that time, oven if their power of rep resentation of a character is limited, the parts are interesting through the short scene.” A number of scenes were suggested by Mr, Stevens, including the landing of DeSoto and Oglethorpe, their march across the wilderness, and later his torical events of Georgia and Atlanta. Mr. Stevens returned to Chicago last night, where he will begin the. Work of writing the play on which the pa geant is to be founded. “I Nevfir Closed My Eyes Last Night” How often have you been forced to say these very words.

Up and Down Peachtree Milt Saul, Auto-Crat, Hunts Joker With Club. Milt Saul, who is prominently con- | nected with the electric company, as | the society department always says, bought an automobile this season. Milt used to be a newspaper man, and a trol ley ride on bis expense account repre sented his idea of luxurious transpor tation then. But circumstances alter finances, and Mr. Saul invested in a runabout. The first day he drove down to his office he left his car in front of the building. That evening, when his la bors were over, he absent-mindedly climbed aboard a trolley and started home. He was nearly there before he remembered his gas wagon. Back to tow n for him. Rut the ear wasn't there Milt toid the janitor, the police and the govern ment secret service department, but they couldn't locate it. Next day it turned up in an alley around the corner, where some playful friend had driven it for a joke on Milt. But he says when he finds that guy the bump of humor on his head will look like a hollow spot compared to other excrescences which will suddenly sur round it. Chinese Laundryinen Adopt Business Names. There is a Chinese laundry' near the Imperial hotel, run by a Celestial who jubilates in the name of Num Lee. There is nothing astonishing or re markably peculiar about that, to be sure, but it started one of the guests to talk ing. and this is what he said: “Ever since my student days I have had my doubts about Chinese names— or rather, the names Chinamen employ for commercial purposes In this coun try. “In the little town where I went to college there was a Chinese laundry with a sign hanging out in front read ing 'Wall Shoe.’ "It is said that one of the college students fixed up that laundryman’s sign, when the almond-eyed one first opened shop in that town: and that when the student came to painting it the Chinaman merely told,him to fix up some name that would get the business —and ‘Wah Shee' was what the Chink drew. The Chinese, however, always denied the story. “Os course, everything may have been all right and his name may have been ‘Wah Shee,' but well. I've had serious misgivings with respect to Chinese nomenclature ever since, nevertheless!” Society Hoodwinked By Former Chauffeur. This is the sad, sad story of a man who was not what he seemed, and the moral is that you can go a long time without being found out if you'll only -keep your mouth shut. Ho was well dressed and quiet, and altogether gentlemanly in appearance, and when he turned up at one of At lanta's best hotels as the agent of an automobile factory he made friends readily. He was excessively modest, cten diffident; but several society folk took him up. “Where have I seen that face before? And there's something about the back et his head that's familiar," some of the women remarked. But the s'canger was politely positive that he had never been introduced to any Atlantans in the past. He had a car, and one afternoon ho took several new-found friends to drive. One of the guests suggested that they stop at a fashionable club for a tea and highballs. They did. Next day the Atlantan received a card from the club. "Please do not bring Mr. Blank to the club again,” it said. The Atlantan was shocked. He was pained. He was sore. He called up the steward. i “What’s the objection to Mr. Blank?” he asked. "Oh. nothing, except ho is that high priced chauffeur Mrs. Peachtree brought down from New York last year and then fired," was the reply. “Ho drove her out to the club very fre quently. Maybe you didn't recognize him without his livery.” '1 hat. afternoon the ex-chauffeur, who had blossomed Into an auto sales man, faded from the hotel. Girls Buying- Sox—For Brothers, of Course. About every third young woman who goes into a Peachtree department store these day's purchases—not silk, lace or taffeta, but an abundant supply of half hose —sox. And she doesn't purchase ordinary kinds, either. When it's not I pure silk, it s fancy styles and open works. She says they are for "broth er." Just why brother should need sc many sox at this particular season of the year is the cause of much puzzle- J ment to the clerks. And why should i brother be pay ing a dollar per pail' . when lie ordinarily employs only a quarter—or at the most a half-dollar'.’ In addition to this, the young women have been purchasing a very ornate style of garter which brother might wear, of course, but which he never lias worn so far as the records go This fact, coupled with two others lias aided the puzzled clerks in arriving at a conclusion, w hich com lusion, by th. by, will go unmentioned here The facts are these: IGrstly, ex tremely tight skirts are still in vogue; secondly, half hose are much cooler than whole hose. - $lO tickets to WRIGHTSVILLE TEACH And return sold . very Thursday.

Receiving Good Prices. The Georgia peach is flying North ward this week. The movement has almost reached its height and the rail ways between Atlanta and the East are being taxed to handle the enor mous shipments. Special trains, operated on passen ger schedules and cutting the time from Atlanta to N'.av York to 26 hours, are carrying the cars of iced fruit. The peaches, by car lots, are coming to Atlanta daily, and the yards are busier than at any time in the past year, making up fast trains for East bound traffic. Atlanta is the concen tration point for all fruit from south Georgia points, and most of the work is done at night, when the daily busi ness is out of the way. Plenty of Cars Ready. The Southern and other railways, anticipating a big crop, have been pre paring for weeks, moving empty cars Southward and storing them in yard-, enlarging the icing plant in Inman Yards. Atlanta, and arranging sched ules which will cause no delay in the transmission of the perishable freight. It is believed that there will be an am ple supply of cars this season, even for the phenomenal crop expected. The icing plant in Inman Yards had been enlarged and overhauled. Tracks and platforms Ifave been extended to permit the handling of 24 cars at one time, and only 15 minutes is required to ice this number properly. The dou ble-tracking of the Southern railway is expected to be completed this week, giving the road great facilities for the rush fruit season | DEATHS AND FUNERALS | Mrs. Ella Keith. The funeral of Mrs. Ella Keith, 26 I years old. who died last night, will be ; held at St. Mary Episcopal church - this afternoon at 4:30 o'clock. Inter ment will be in East Point cemetery. Julius Cavar. The body of Julius Cavar, 68 years old. who died last night, lies at the chapel of Greenberg A- Bond, awaiting funeral arrangements. Relatives from South Carolina will reach Atlanta to day. DON'T TRY TO FOLLOW T. R. AND ME, WARNS MR. BRYAN DENVER. COLO., June 11.—Judge j Ben B, Lindsey, of the juvenile court, told William J.

W. Bedford, a merchant at 169 Decatur street, today is lamenting the fact that Tie is the purchaser of the costliest pint of liqubr in the world. Tile purchase price was only $20.25. And at that it was pop skull, blind tiger stuff When Bedford bought the liquor Sunday night he carelessly handed the blind tiger a S2O gold piece, thinking it was a silver half-dollar. As the regu lation price of a pint is 75 cents, he also handed over another- half-dollar the real thing, this time—and asked that he be given a quarter in change. This was done. Bedford was enjoying his purchase immensely when he suddenly discov ered his mistake in coins. He instantly began a hunt for f. M. Hughes, a youth who sold him the li quor. and when he found him turned him over to Policeman Steint. But it was too late. Hughes dinied he had received the gold coin. and it could not be found. Bedford “got even,” however, when Recorder Broyles gave Hughes .In days straight and bound hint over for selling liquor.
