7 Back in Dues, Loses Suit for Insurance Court Upholds Company From Which Man Tried to Collect for Loss of Leg. liiJi. .UiiAM'A GKO.uGJAn AjNiJ AEW S. \\ LUNLSUAY, APRIL 10, PJ1J. Il avai|e<l D. ft. Plumer, of At lanta, nothing to pay up back pre miums on an accident policy in ar rears and then try to collect $1,000 from an insurance company, all after he had lost a leg. The State Court of Appeals held in a decision to-day that the pay ment of premiums promptly was ono of the essential principles of insur- <nce nnd that Plumer nad no legal right to collect the insurance money. Judge Reid, of the City Court, was sustained by the decision. Plumer paid the first monthly pre mium of $2.50 in June, 1912. He paid nothing in the succeeding months, but met an accident In September of the same year, which necessitated i he amputation of his leg. At about Ihe 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 policy. This he agreed to do, but his offer was declined at the local office and he began suit.

The United States Court of Ap peals for this district has Just hand ed down a decision that postofflee 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, Kans.. the other two main Federal prisons. The Fifth Circuit Court has ruled that 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 postofflee, 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 confined 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.

Children Will Distribute Cards Chamber of Commerce Enlists Clubwomen and Pupils for Can vass Friday and Saturday. Friday and Saturday are "Clean up'” days. Will you do this, in the name of a more beautiful Atlanta: Paint your out-hou^es and fences: Plant Gowers, shrubs or veg etables in front and back yard?: 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 esthetic-ally 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 must be signed between Friday noon and Saturday night, and muet be turned in to the principals of the school by the sc hool children by Monday noon. The school whose children obtain ! the largest number of cards will 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 the difference in number of student". The result is to be measured in proportion to the number of pupils of each school con testing. the purpose being to put all contestants upon exact equalise ac cording to the number of pupils. Chamber Offers the Prizes The prizes are offered and the cam paign was conceived by the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, w hose execu tives, desiring the best revolts, 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; Mrs. F. J. Spratling. vice president; Mrs. W. L. Percy, treasurer, and Mrs. W. B. Price- Smith, secretary. The ward club members were; Firsi Ward.

Warning to Rich Hitchcock Says Vice President Mar shall’s Speech on Socialism’s Progress Was Timely. WASHINGTON, April 16—Vice President Marshal's warning to the rich thil socialism and unrest are abroad In the land was the subject of widespread comment here to-day. Senator Gilbert M. Hitchcock, mem ber of the banking and currency com mittee said: “I am glad Vice J resident Marshall made this speech.' It Is timely. Tile growth of socialism In Europe is a protest against political conditions. In the United States it is a protest against social and business conti- tiont. It is fitting that men of atand- ng should call public attention to situations that are fast developing in mis country.” GIRLS' WAGE BILL PASSES IN PENNSYLVANIA HOUSE HARRISBURG, PA., April 16.—The House has passed the Bigger minimum wage bill, providing for a commission of three to fix a mini mum wage for woman and girl work ers and all minor workers in the State.

FAMILY ILL, WOMAN SUES CITY FOR LAYING SEWER Asserting that the construction of n sewer in Grove Avenue has decreased the value of her home one-half and caused on epidemic of malaria in her family, Mrs. Bmma Echolr has died suit in the City Court against the city of Atlanta for $5,000 damages. According to her petition, the city last September built a sewer in Grove Avenue and left the end open within 20 feet of her house. She says she has had to keep her doors and win dows closed constantly. Those Who Can Attend But One Are Advised by Critic to Hear Caruso Sing “Gioconda." “What's the one opera you’d hear if you could afford but one?” is a ques tion heard rather frequently this week. And it it* a hard one to answer. One critic familiar with the bill work ed It out this way: “The person who will hear only one opera naturally will desire to .hear Caruso, the golden; Caruso, the man XJth the magic voice, the $2,500 ft night throat, who will sing three times —in ‘Manon? ‘Gioconda’ and ‘Tosca The Puccini ‘Manon.’ thougn. com posed and first presented in 1892, is one of Puccini's earlier works, yet it has never attained tiie popularity of hlfi later operas; in fact, it has been sung very seldom. But the story it 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 the expense of being called trite. It contains the beautiful ‘Ah, Manon. Kind and Gentle,’ perhaps a?’'beautiful a solo as Caruso Iras ever sung, and the wonderful intermezzo after the second act, is one oi the composer’s most finished works. Fin* Acting in “Totca.” /‘In ‘Tosca’ one may enjoy not on.y great music, but splendid acting ami a plot which made the drama of To‘- ca’ one of Bernhardt’s favorites. It is famous for its three tremendously strong roles, and Destinn. Scotti and Caruso will vie for honors. The bari tone will be heard in the number which has helped win him fame, ‘Can tabile Scarpia,’ and Destinn is given great opportunity' in the aira. ‘Lovr 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 I believe my choic- 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 \o en trancing that often it iv interpolated in other productions. Scenic Effects Beautiful. ” ‘Giocond^’ is beautiful in its sceniu 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 cent? are part of the difficulty. 1 would suggest that $3 seats are almost a? good as $5 ones—and even better than those too close to the front.” Bishop Candler to Hold Lewis Funeral!
