In the downtown parade were the

; Mary Garden Finds
‘Suitor’ Under Sofa
Throw Him to Sharks,’ She Orders,
Learning He Invaded State
room by Mistake.
NEW YORK. May 1. Miss Mary
Garden, radiant and slimmer than
ever, has sailed for the Highlands of
Scotland and the boulevards of Paris.
It was close to sailing time when she
boarded the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm
IT. and went to her it. room, 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 till this smoke?”
A shoe poking out from under the
couch offered an explanation, and then
the steward ►•limited that n man was
hiding. Perhaps a. stowaway. Per
haps an admirer of the prima donna.
"The daring follow," Maid Miss Gar
den, sweetly. "Maybe lie’s tried to
see me for years. How he must have
loved me to run such a risk."
The owner of tlie shoe was a portly
man very sleepy and unable to ac
count or apologize for his* presence.
He did 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 l» a. rn.,
and probably mistook Miss Garden's
stateroom for his friend Caruso’s.

Centrifugal Pattern Is Bought
for $7,000 Against $60,000
for Old Type.
Mayor Woodward’s signing of the
contract with the Georgia Railway and
Power Company for electric current
i m operate a new 10,000,000-gallon ca
pacity water pump at the river sta
tion probably marks a new epoch in
.In* history of Atlanta's waterworks
department, according to \Y. Z. Smith,
general manager. A steam pump of
| the type in us- by the city would
11av<. cost more than $00,000, but the
. ontnirt for the centrifugal pump to
■e operated by electricity provides
• nr an expenditure of only a little
j more than $7,000.
The objection of officials of the wa-
i t» r department heretofore to elec
trically driven centrifugal pumps has
| been the cost of operation. The cen-
i '. ifugal pumps are cheaper and con-
! venient to house and maintain, but
1 until the bid of the electric company,
based on the new water power rates.
; was submitted the officials did not
| believe the new plan would be
economic. The rate i- 12 mills per
j kllowat hour.
Work on the new pump will be

the crippled condition of two of the
| pumps at the river station demanded
jihat the new one be established as

WASHINGTON. May 1 I should
like lo see tarred and feathered the
artist who engraved our recent bank
notes and put pantaloons on the
American eagle.”
Thus wrote a prominent banker of
Tennessc* to Senator Martlne, pro
testing against continuance of the
Treasury laundry,” wherein bank
notes are washed and returned to cir
culation.
The burden of the protest was that
washing notes destroys the distinc
tiveness of the engraving and made
the issue a “counterfeiter’s delight.”

Youth Stays Longer, |
Say New Optimists
French Club President Asserts 40 or
50, Not 30, Is Regarded Now
as Middle Age.
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
PARIS, May 1.—The Optimists, a
society of well-known French artists
and writers organized to combat the
] prevailing pessimistic ideas of the
Old World, held it annual banquet
; last evening.
“There is the lazy and puerile op-
' timism which wishes to believe that
all is best in the best possible world,”
; said Jean Finot, leading editor, who
presided. "There is also another that j
contents itself with believing we can
make the earth the best possible
| of worlds.”
M. Fhiot pointed out that the rela-
I tions between parents and children
were better than ever before and
i also that everyone stays young long
er. Two generations ago people w^ere
thought middle-aged at 30, but now*
it Is 40 or even 60.
"Progress,” he concluded, “is accom-
I plished like the Japanese workman
produces a marvelous lacquer. He
spreads a little resin on a piece of
wood, then takes it off, doing and un
doing his work twenty or a hundred
times, finally leaving a fine doat of
