It availed D. R. Plumer. of At lanta. nothing to pay up back pre miums on an accident policy in ar rears and then try to collect J1.000 from an insurance company, all after lie had lost a leg. The State Court of Appeals held In a decision to-day that the pay ment of premium ■ promptly tvas one of the essential principles of insur ance and that Plumer nad no legal right to collect the insurance money, ludge Reid, of the City Court, was sustained by the decision. Plumer paid the first monthly pre mium of $2.r.0 in June, 1912. Ho paid nothing in the succeeding months, hut met an accident in September of the same year, which necessitated ttie amputation of Ills leg. At about the time of the accident, he received a card from the Continental Casualty Company, of Washington, in which he had been insured, asking him to pay up the arrears and continue the noliey. This he agreed to do, but ills offer was declined at the local oflkt and he began suit. ATLANTA PEN TIME Crusade On For City Beautiful Prisoners Here Can’t Be Freed After One of Several Terms, Different Other Places.

No mat ter how many patent medicines you have .tried in vain, this treatment, formerly' known onlv to doc tors, will give prompt results: “Dissolve two tablespoonfuls of Cal- vide compound in a basin of warm water. Soak the feet in this for full fifteen min utes, gently rubbing 'he sort parts." The effects are mar- ' ' eloua. All pain goes instantly and , the feet feel simply delightful. Corns j and callouses can be peeled right off- ! bunions, aching feet, sweaty smelling > fee* get immediate relief. Cse this , a week and your foot troubles will be i a thing of the past. Caloe id e works ’ through the pores and removes 4he ycause. Any druggist has it in stock or will quickly get it. A 25-cent i package is said to be enough to cure ! the worst feet. The United States Court of Ap peals for this district has just hand ed down, a decision that postoffice robbers sent to the Atlanta pen must stay behind the bars for a longer period than if they had been sent to McNeils Island. Cal., or Leavenworth, Ivans., the other two main Federal prisons. The Fifth Circuit Court has ruled tTiat Charles Anderson can not be freed under a writ of habeas corpus. The Eighth and Ninth Circuit Courts, which* control Leavenworth and McNeils Island penitentaries, have ruled that a man can be indict ed only on one count for robbing one postoffice, and have released two pris oners after they had finished their first terms. Charles Anderson and Frank Wayne were indicted jointly for rob bing the Sellwood (Oregon) postof fice. The indictment against them contained five counts. Wayne plead ed guilty and got nine years alto gether, but only three on the first. He was confinevl at McNeils Island. His partner was tried and got ten years, but only five on the first count. Wayne, at the end of his three-year term, sued for and was granted a writ of habeas corpus by the Wash ington District Court and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. "When An derson, who had been transferred to Atlanta, finished his five-year term he also sued for a writ of habeas corpus, but was denied it by Judge Newman. Anderson sued again, and on the weight of the two Circuit Court de cisions, Judge Newman reversed his own former decision and liberated Anderson. Assistant District Attorney John Henley appealed to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals and won. The court reversed Judge Newman, and as it controls the Atlanta penitentiary ab solutely Anderson is still in confine ment wishing that he had never been transferred to Atlanta. Attorney Lamar Hill, representing Anderson probably will appeal the case to the United States Supreme Court.

Friday and Saturday are “(Mean- up” days. . Will you do this, in the name of a more beautiful Atlanta: Paint your out-houses ami fences; Plant flowers, shrubs or veg etables in front and back yards*; Sprinkle lime on your premises where necessary; Remember that cleanliness is a virtue; unsightliness a crime? Clubwomen are crusading for a cleaner, prettier city to-day In At lanta. Men of Atlanta have grace fully and widely given the task of esthetically improving the city into their hands and the hands of the school children. Presidents of the Civic Board clubs of the Atlanta Federation of Wom en's Clubs laid the ground to-day for a “clean-up” campaign Friday and Saturday. They made the rounds of the public* schools, and enlisted the school children for work in the cam paign. After all, the effective work will be that of the school children. Here Is the plan: Children to Distribute Cards The children will distribute pledge cards among Atlanta men and women to be signed. Each card bears a pledge that the signer will keep his yard presentable and clean, and will strive to give it something of beauty. The cards roust be signed between Friday noon and Saturday night, and must be turned in to the principals of the school by the school children by Monday noon. The school whose children obtain the largest number of cards w ill re ceive a cash prize of $25; second prize, $15; third prize. $10. The children may work anywhere in the city. The printed rules of the contest embody a request that they begin on the streets where they re side and that they skip no house. In the calculation to determine the prize-winning schools, due allowance will be made for tin* difference in number of student-. The result is to be measured in proportion to the number of pupil? of each school con testing. the purpose being to put all contestants upon exact equal! ac cording to the number of pupils. Chamber Offers the Prizes. The prizes are offered and tiie cam- I paign was conceived by the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, w hose execu- | tives, desiring the best results, strat egically left the matter to the club women. The pledge cards were dis tributed among the school children to-day. Preliminary to their excursion about the city, representatives of the Civic Ward Clubs met at the Carnegie Library at 11 o’clock, to plan their work. Present were Mrs. Charles J. Haden, president of the Federation of Women’s Clubs; Mr?. F. J. Sprat ling, vice president; Mrs. W. L. Percy, treasurer, and Mrs. W. B. Price- Smith, secretary.

And it is a hard one to answ er. One critic, famiiiur’w ith the bill w ork ed it out this way: 'Tiie person who w ill hear only one opera naturally will desire to hear Caruso, tne golden; Caruso, the man with the magic voice, the $2,500 a night throat, who will sing three times —in ‘Aianon,’,‘Gioconda' and ‘Tosca. “The Puccini 'Manon.' though, com posed und first presented in 1893. is one of Puccini’s earlier, works, yet it has never attained the popularity of his later operas; in fact, it ha* been sung very seldom. But the. story ii absorbing, the costuming and settings magnificent, and the music filled with the sweet melody which Puccini and Verdi have not hesitated to use. even at tiie expense of being called trite. It contains the beautiful 'Ah, Manon. Kind and Gentle.’ perhaps a« beautiful a solo as Caruso has ever sung, and the wonderful intermezzo after the second act, is one of the composer's most finished works. Fine Acting in "Tosca.” “In Tosca' one may enjoy not only great music, but splendid .acting arid a plot which made the drama of ‘To* ca’ one of Bernhardt’s fa\orites. It is famous for its three tremendously strong rolee, and Destinn. Scotti and Caruso will wie for honors. The bari tone will be heard in the number which has helped win him fame, ‘Can tabtle Scarpia,’ and Destinn is given great opportunity in the aira. ‘Love and Music.’ Caruso’s finest number will be the famous The Stars Wer*' Shining.’ “But if I were going to pick one of the Caruso operas 1 believe my chok* would fall on ‘Gioconda.’ It is the only work to be conducted by Tos canini. and It offers the most splendid ballet known to opera, the ‘Dance of the Hours,’ a spectacle so beautiful and accompanied by music so en trancing that often it i« interpolated in'other productions. Scenic Effects Beautiful. “ ‘Gioconda’ is beautiful In ifs soeni effects, too. and its four principal*. Caruso. Destinn. Amato and Homer are given exceptional opportunity. “But. after all, it is hard to choose one among seven. If dollars and cents are part of the difficulty. I would vugRcst that $2. seats are almost as good as $5 ones—and even better than those too close to the front.” Bishop Candler to Hold Lewis Funeral Methodist Ministers Will Go in Body to Attend Services at First Church.
