May 1— Organized 1b nor of the East Side turned out strong to-day for the annual May Day pa rade.

L Herbert Kaufman Writer, Divorced Beautiful Wife Is Granted Decree and Private Agreement Fixes Her Alimony. CITY EFFECTS BIG SAVING ON PUMP Centrifugal Pattern Is Bought for $7,000 Against $60,000 for Old Type. 3,000 to Attend Big Sunday School Rally Contest for Membership Between Baptists and Christians Ends Sunday in the Auditorium. Mayor Woodward’* signing of the contract with the Georgia Hallway and Power Company for electric current to operate a new 10,000,000-gallon ca pacity water pump at the river sta tion probably marks a new epoch in the history of Atlanta’s waterworks department, according to VV. Z. Smith, general manager. A steam pump of the type in use by the city would ha\> cost more than $60,000, but the contract for the centrifugal pump to be operated by electricity provides for an expenditure of only a little more than $7,000. The objection of officials of the wa ter department heretofore to elec- , trically driven centrifugal pumps has been the cost of operation. The cen trifugal pumps are cheaper and con venient to house and maintain, but until the bid of the electric company, based on the new water power rates, was submitted the officials did noi believe th* new plan would be economic. The rate is 5 1-2 mills per kllowat hour. Work on the 'new pump will be rushed. General Manager Smith said the crippled condition of two of the pumps at the river station demanded that the new' one be established as I quickly as possible.

Miss Mary Garden, radiant and slimmer than ever, has sailed for the Highlands of Scotland and the boulevards of Paris. Jt was close to sailing time when she boarded the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm 11' and went to her stateroom, just two cabins away from that occupied by Enrico Caruso. The steward opened the door Bou quets of American Beauties from many admirers were lying around al most dead from the smoke of a pecu liarly strong cigar. Miss Garden sniffed, stepped back and exclaimed: ‘‘Why* all this smoke?” A shm poking out from under *the couch offered an explanation, ami then the steward shouted that a man was hiding. Perhaps a stowaway. Per haps an admirer of the prima donna. “The daring fellow,” said Miss Gar den, sweetly. “Maybe he’s tried to see me for years. How he must have loved me to run such a risk.” The owner of the shoe was a portly man very sleepy and unable to ac count or apologize for hip* presence. He ^5 id not kneel down and worship Mary Garden, and he was not hand some. Whereupon she exclaimed: "Throw him to the sharks. Over board with him. I’m sure he never came to see me." The watchman on the pier said that the man was in the party that escort ed Caruso to the steamer at 6 a. m., and probably - mistook Miss Garden's stateroom for his friend Caruso’s. MRS.
