/ Back in Dues, Loses Suit for Insurance Court Upholds Company From Which Man Tried to Collect for Loss of Leg. It availed D. Ft. Plumer. of At- . lantp, nothing to pay . up back pre miums on an accident policy in ar-. rears and then try to collect $1,000 i from an insurance company, all after he had lost a leg.' Tim 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 arid- that Plumer had no. legal right to collect the insurance money. Judge Reid, of the City Court, was sustained by the decision. Plumer paid the Hist monthly pre mium of $2.50 in June, 1012. He paid nothing in the suecee'ding months, Hut met an accident in September of the same . year, which necessitated the amputation' of his 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 hint to pay up the arrears and continue the policy. This lie agreed to do, but his offer, was declined at the local office and he began suit. The nagging irritation from dallv foot torture causes thousands of nerv ous. break-downs.

ATLANTA PEN TIME Prisoners Here Can’t Be Freed After One of Several Terms. Different Other Places. The United States Court of Ap peals for this district has just hand ed down a decision that post office 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 toe 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 iOregon) 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. Jlis 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.

Will You Sign 'Clean-up' Pledge? 1ST OPERt' IS Crusade On For City Beautiful HARD TO SELECT V • *’* 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^s and fencesi Plant Gowers, 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 wisely 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 ior 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 ttiiit 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 must be turned in to the principals of the school by the sc hool c hildren by Monday noon. The school whose children obtain the largest number of cards will re ceive a c ash prize of $25; second prize. $13; 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 students*. 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 equality 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 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. < diaries J. Haden, president of the Federation of Women’s Clubs; Mrs*. F. J. Spralling. vice president; Mrs. W. L. Percy, treasurer, and Mrs. W. B. Price- Smith, secretary. The ward club members were: First Ward. Mrs. H. L. Bass, Mrs. 1. S. Lindsay: Second. Miss Jekyll, Mrs. T. Y. Gay; third, Mr *, J. Justis; Fourth, Mrs. L. J. Ansten: Fifth. Mrs*. K. W. LaZarus; Sixth.

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?’’ i» a ques tion heard rather frequently this week. And it is* a hard one to answer. One critic familiar with the bill work ed it out this way: "The person who w ill, hear only one opera naturally will desire to hear Caruso, tin* golden; Caruso, the man with the magic voice, the $2,500 a night throat, who w ill sing three times —in ’Manon,' ‘Gioconda’ and ‘Tosca.' "The Puccini Manon.’ though, com posed and first presented in 1893. is one of Puccini’s earlier works, yet it has never attained the popularity of ills later operas; in fact, iL ha* been sung very seldom. Rut tlie story i- 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 has ever sung, and the wonderful intermezzo afier the second act, is one or the composers most finished works. Fine Acting in “Tosca.” “In ‘Tosca’ one may enjoy not only great music, but splendid acting ano 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 ('aruso 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. ‘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 I believe my cholc** would fall on ‘Gioconda.’ It is tin 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 In interpolated in other productions. Scenic Effects Beautiful. “ ‘Gioconda’ is beautiful in its sceni 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 difficultv. I would suggest that $3 seats are almost as good as $o ones—and even better than those too close to the front.” CUMMINS URGES RIGID TESTS FOR FOREIGN MEAT Every Methodist minister in Atlan ta and the surrounding territory has been requested to attend the funeral services at the First Methodist Church this afternoon of the late.
