Isn’t it worth while to you? But when coal goes up. it often jumps to i dollar nr mor« per ton higher than the present price. And if a bliz zard strikes coal is apt to go several dollars higher. But a strike is the worst price raiser of all. You doubt in'.. remember. The moral is, buy coal ■hen it’s low; burn it when the price i:- high. Telephone orders receive prompt at ention.

Never had met him before, but consider him one of my best friends now. Fact is, thought I had known him all my life five minutes after 1 had been introduced by President Callaway. Put out my trusty right to mitt him and, well —haven't got the fin gers pried apart yet. Billy has such a taking way when he shakes hands. Thought mine was being squashed to a mass of jelly as he put a strangle hold on it. "Glad (ouch!) to meet (ouch!) you (ouch!). Mr. Smith," I said be tween twangs of pain that made me think the fingers were being amputated. THE BASEBALL CARD. AMERICAN LEAGUE. Games Today. Washington in Chicago. Philadelphia in St. Louis.

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN Then I sat down and began to listen —excuse me. 1 mean began to ask Billy Smith questions. He never jabbers unless asked ques tions. He is as silent as a Provi dence Bay little neck. "Suppose you are glad to get back to Atlanta." was my first lead. (All this time my right hand was under the chair the fingers glued together as though they were one and all.) "You bet." he said. "Think Atlanta will be up in the race next year?” "Hope so.” "Made any plans yet?” “Nope.” And that is all Billy had to say about the team. Fact of the matter is, Smith ITS BACK. TO POUNDING SIDEWALKS FOR KUBIAK PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 21.—Al Ku biak. the heavyweight who resigned from the local police force to re-enter the prize ring, will probably have to return to his nightstick, for he has failed to "come back." Gunboat Smith outpointed Kubiak in a six-round go last night, although the Michigan giant had the advantage of 25 pounds in weight. GEORGIAN TERRACE BARBER SHOP NOW RUN BY A. VARENA i | k. VARENA. A. Varena, the popular barber, who has been a resident of Atlanta for many years, and who has for the past several years operated the barber shop in the Rhodes building, where he has built up a splendid business, has pur chased the shop in the Georgian Ter race hotel, which he will operate in connection with his other place. There is no more popular barber in Atlanta than Mr. Varena, and the class of workmen he employs, together with his personal supervision, guarantees for the Georgian Terrace a barber shop second to none in the country. (Advertisement.) hasn't had time to look over the ground. • But he isn't much of a talker, anyway. * * * O ILLY and ('lark Griffith are great friends. And you never saw t«o men who looked so much alike. Griff has taken on a heap of weight since he was here last, and shapes up just like the At lanta manager. And they talk a heap alike, too. Couldn't open 'em up with a can opener. ♦ * * D ILLY and President Callaway will leave the city the latter part of next week for Washington. Billy expects to put over a deal with Griffith whereby the Crackers will get an outfielder and a pitcher. » * * | F the Atlanta players show as much pep and ginger next spring as the board of directors—Nunnal ly. Ryan and Callaway—do right now, there,will be nothing to the nice but the crackers. The "Big Trio" jabber their heads off talk ing about next year’s team.

SAVANNAH CAN SECURE BIG CUP RACE NEXT YEAR SAVANNAH, GA., Sept. 21. That Sa vannah can secure the Grand Prize and Vanderbilt cup races in 1913. if the city desires to stage these great automobile events again, is the opinion of Harvey Granger, of the Savannah Automobile club, who has just returned from New York, where he was in touch with of ficials of the Automobile Club of America ami of the American Automobile associa tion Granger bases«his statement on the fact (lull Milwaukee lias fallen down in her effort to pull off the races on scheduled time, whereas, on the three occasions that the races have been run here, everything was ready on the minute. The result, he says, is that Savannah is being talked of all over the country as the only place in the country where these events can be properly staged. I GEORGIANS ONI YANKS’ INFIELO Ntnyffl - You may look for two native Geor gians starring in tin- Yankees’ infield next year, for Harry Wolverton has just turned a trade bv which he se- ' cured Claude Den ick. the old Unlver- , sity of Georgia star, from Detroit. Tommy McMillan, who scintillated at I Tech just before Derrick began to shine at Athens, has cinched his place at shortstop for the Yankees, and those who know of Derrick's s-bility when i given a real test are pretty sure that he : will win a regular place, very likely at second base, his natural position. Derrk k was substitute infielder for the Athletics for several years up to the middle of August. He never had a chance to supplant Eddie Collins or Jack Batrv. but did lairlv well as a. substitute for them. Connie Mack is, said to have thought very highly of the : boy's future, ami it was with reluc- i tance that he let him an to Baltimore I "t month in the desperate effort to streiigllK n the Athletics' outfield by the addition of new talent. Dei rick has boon burning 'em up in, th,- International league, batting heav-J ilv and fielding well, and was gobbled up in the draft by Detroit.
