\ ■ GROVER C. BODEN, Manager. HARRY G. POOLE ;<4f§ A Modern Establish ment Where Every Homelike Con- / v enience Is Afforded The:friends of Harry G. Poole, the well known funeral director, are con gratulating "him upon the splendid sue- cessihe has achieved sinee, a few years ago, he began his present line of work. Mr. Poole has just moved into his own building at 96 South Pryor Street. In convenience and beauty of arrange- ment-for its purpose it is, perhaps, the most modern in the entire South. Mr. Poole designates it as his Fu neral Home—and rightly so. Bright, airy—built upon the lines of a modern private home—and furnished with elegant, eheery fittings, its interior presents at once an appearance which helps to dispel the gloom so naturally attendant upon those who have oeea sion to visit an establishment of this kind. There is no suggestion of the gloomy, melancholy air which so fre quentlv encircles the business house of the undertaker. mriHM ■ | HARRY G. POOLE’S NEW FUNERAL HOME Two Large, Airy Par lors Take the Place of Commonly Designated Chapels 1 In the place of what is commonly termed as the “chapel” in most under taking establishments, Mr. Poole has provided two large, airy parlors, which are homelike in their appoint ments. These are so arranged that two funeral services can be held at the same time, should occasion arise, without conflict of any kind. Every convenience is provided, and a funeral conducted in one of these parlors is similar in every detail to a home service. In addition, a new, and what will doubtless prove a most desirable fea ture, is the furnishing of special bed rooms on the second floor, where strangers passing through the city with the bodies of loved ones can spend the night in quiet, free of charge, of course, and be near their deceased members. In fact, the new Funeral Home of Mr. Poole is homelike in its every ap pearance, and his friends are invited ‘ to drop in and inspect for themselves his model, new and handsome business house.

WASHINGTON, June 3.—James Hamilton Lewis, former Georgian, has so startled Washington that the cap ital is now' in that extreme condition which Is most aptly called agog. The Junior Senator from Illinois has threatened to shave off his whis kers—“Just as soon as the weather gets settled to Its summer heat,” he says. “I have accomplished something in fyvo much alive and widely separated States,’' he snld, "but I am pictured a- being oamposed principally or whis kers, manners and clothes. My ec centricities are exaggerated.” "What are your eccentricities?” he was asked. Colonel Not Just “Frippery.” “I don’t know," he replied. "That is the strange part of it. But to read the newspapers one would think that my personality Is all on the surface! —that l am mostly bows, smiles, > spats, canes and whiskers. "I have let my whiskers grow ever since I first went to Seattle,” Senator Lewis continued. "I was 2d years old, i meant to practice law' and desired to look experienced and competent.. 1 wooed the aspect of maturity for busi- rM»Ms purposes. The custom of many young physicians justified me ln do ing so. How He Formed the Habit. “Then I was ill a geeat deal and my w'hiskers concealed unhappy hollow's and angularities. Finally, whiskers became a part of my outward indi viduality. I formed, in short, the habit of wearing them. “But I have determined to try an experiment. This summer I shall shave tiff my whiskers and deprive Journalism of one of its favorite sources of originality and humor.” His Radiant “Glad Rags.” So speaking Senator Lewis tapped the toe of his shoe with his 4'ane and IS REBUKED BT IT blue cuff buttons, a dark suit of cloth ing—with white facing on the wuist- coat—an indigo nedktie, a large sky colored stickpin and heavy rings on his little fingers. In his scrimping days, it is said, lie held that It was more artistic and impresertvc to expend $3<i for three suits of clothes than to wear a $40 suit rigln through the summer or winter. Colonel J. Ham Lewis. Pine and Cypress Business Picks Up NEW ORLEANS. June 3.—More chuerful news came from the yellow pine and cypress operators this w'eek as to business conditions, car serv ice and demand. From points west of the Mississippi River the movement seemed distinctly on the rise and w'ith the Increased demand a firmer tone in prices was noted. Inquiries* were being received by all mills of reputa tion and the orders linked were of considerable proportions.

American Accuses Noted Singer of Ogling a Woman in a London Hotel. Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. LONDON. June 3.—Enrico Caruso wa.« one of the actors in a scene which has stirred the Savoy Hotel. There was no sequel in a police court, though fisticuffs barely w'ere avoided. The foyer of the hotel at the moment was filled wdth departing supper guests. It appears that Caruso annoyed an American, who has been a resident of London for the last few years, by ogling a woman whom the American was escorting. Oaru.«o is said to have called the attention of his secretary, Weber, to the woman in such fu&hion as to make his notice of her conspic uous. In any case, the American took umbrage, and, stepping up to the tenor, told him in a voice heard all over the foyer that he should be ashamed of himself so to direct atten tion to any gentlewoman. "I am Caruso,” replied the tenor. ^‘1 do what I like.” The American thereupon advanced on Caruso threateningly. The tenor beat a haKy retreat, taking refuge in an elevator. Secretary Weber, being more pug nacious, took the American by the shoulder and said: "If you w'eren’t an old man I w'ould knock your head off!" This insult enraged the American, who rushed at Weber. However, a big bystander quietly interfered, taking Weber by the arm and leading him away, despite the secretary's strug gles. The upshot of the affair was that the manager of the hotel took the American into his private office, u'here he heard the story and proffered an apology. Caruso is Kill on the hole! list. Effects of Failure Felt in Many Lines SAVANNAH, GA., June 3.—The disastrous effects of the recent fail ure of the American Naval Stores Company are Just beginning to be felt. The resultant embarrassment is permeating all lines of industry. Money stringency is becoming acute among all dealers in naval .“tores products. It is felt even among th* laborers in the turpentine camps, whose employers are facing a prob lem ln meeting their weekly payrolls. The producers are calling on their factors for assistance. The factors, with the output of the producers on their hands, and no market for the product, with insurance to carry on vast and daily increasing receipts, and storage and demurrage charges to in view of the unsatisfactory condi tion of the market, are unwilling to pay. are themselves being forced to call on the banks for aid. The banks, lend. Business, therefore, is measured in large proportion by the amount of money in sight.

"Pop” Ward & Curran, Lillian Shaw, Jack * Hazard, Seldom’s Models—these are four of the old favorites at the For syth this week, enough in themselves to assure a very nifty little bill. Of course they are reinforced by the usual dancing act, the acrobatic number, etc., etc. The program as a whole is one of the best of the summer season. Old ‘‘Pop’’ Ward has a splendid act which for some reason or other did not go as big ns it might on the opening light. As Ward said: “There seemed to be some <loubi as to what he was do ing." He gets many a laugh, however, and his partner in oha'racter parts adds greatly to the number. Lillian Shaw in her usual repertoire of Hebrew and Gerjnan songs scores a big hit. Her baseball song is especially good and her “Marriage” number is capital. Jack Hazard tells a good many old stories and a lot of new ones. He is a clever entertainer and his number goes big. Seldom’s Models, beautiful artistic poses, in which two men and a woman reproduce famous groups of stautary and paintings, are splendid Others on the bill are Wright &. Dilt- rich, singers: the Three Alex, novelty equilibrists; Calts Brothers, dancers, and the Patheplay.
