Sept. 8.—Before she left England to visit her daughter, queen Maud of Norway, Queen Alexandra Is said 10 have made King Edward give litr the promise that he would Inform Grand Duke Vladimir of Russia, uncle of the czar, that his presence In this manlry during his term of banish ment from Russia Is not wanted, and jhoutd he come to London he would not be received at the English court. fn spite of his fear of his uncle, the czar a couple of weeks ago Issued a decree banishing Vladimir from Rus- iln for one year because of his scan- daloue behavior, which defies all de- ■crlptlon. For many months the grand duke, who has always been the black sheep of the Imperial family, has been In a state of permanent Intoxication, but nothing was done to restrain him until THE THEATERS “Old Innocence."

Vladimir then announced hla intention of spend ing next winter In London, supposedly to study the workings of the British parliament, but really because he Is afraid to go to France, which Is full ol Russian refugees, any one of whom would gladly sacrifice hla own life to rid the world of Vladimir, whom they consider responsible for the czar's fail ure to grant a constitution to Rus- ■la.

Tim Murphy la essentially a South- ern player. He la of the South by birth and training, he chose his wife, who has for several seasons been his leading woman, from Tennessee, and It has been hla habit to surround him self with Southern men and women when practicable. He has not the prestige of a two-hundred-night run on Broadway; he does not bear the ball- mark of the Frohmans or any of the great managers, but In the years he has visited the cities of the South he has won an Increasing boat of friends who find In him those same elements which made the name of Sol Smith Russell known wherever there Is a stage. His portrayal of elderly, eccen tric characters Is delicious. They are all lovable old men—Tim Murphy could not play a villain If he would—and Jason Green Is one of the most lovable of them all.

James Cooper, as the hard-hearted brother, gave a splendid Impersonation of a .difficult role and fairly divided the honors with Mr. Murphy. John Arthur’s conception of his role, the neglected son. was not a pleasing one, but hla acting wna thoroughly artistic. The entire company gave a finished performance, unmarred by any false note. The engagement continues Sat urday afternoon and night. DUDLEY GLASS. Hopes are entertained that the treas ure ship of the Spanish Armada, which hue lain for centuries at the bottom of Tobermory bay. will soon be located and Its cargo of gold and sliver re covered. The latest scientific methods have been used In a search which has ex tended over centuries. Sand pumping and modem diving bells and other In- Itenlous contrivances, of which the ear lier searchers knew nothing, are being employed, and by their aid the fasci nating Spanish doubloons will once more see the light of. the day. The treasure ship Florencla was 961 tons and carried 62 guns. One of the quaint traditions still current ns to the sinking of the ship In the smooth waters of Tobermory attributes the dis aster to the work of the witches from the neighboring Island of Mull. These, the story runs, appeared on the spars of the vessel fn the form of black cats and brought on the gale which sunk her. Aside from the traditions, It has defi nitely been determined that the Floren- ela Is actually at the bottom of the bay. The Argyll family began the first search for the treasure about a century after the visit of the Armada, but since that time various attempts have been made and brass cannon, one of eleven fe»l In length and of most elaborate workmanship, with engraving attribut ed to the great Beriebenuto Cellini, ~ 1 »ney chests and stray doubloons have The Grand will be dark next week until Friday night, when ’’Foxy Grand pa,” billed as a ’’musical comedy for children of all agea,” will begin Its engagement of two evenings and Sat urday matinee.

Smith, who this week appointed special agent of the Virginia State Insurance Compa ny, of Richmond, succeeding Otis A. Murphy, who resigned to accept a sim ilar position with the Dixie Fire, of Greensboro. Mr. Smith has a host of friends In Atlanta and Is an amateur tennis play er of ability. He has had a very grfod experience In his profession, having been connected for over eight years past with various departmenj and local offices and special agent nnu In other capacities. He was fpr some years with Manager Clarence Knowles and later with Manager W. E. Chapin, of the Pennsylvania Fire.

As his Insurance Company, returned to his homo In Atlanta this week with his family after a sojourn of several months at Atlantic City and other Northern resorts. King A- Drake, of Atlanta, general agents of the Pennsylvania Fire, have secured the liability line on the ele vators of the Empire building, hereto fore written by the London Guarantee and Accident. These gentlemen have Just secured an Important addition to thelr^vorklng force by the appointment of Horace \V. Howard, recently In the local agency business at Cartersvllle, Ga., who will travel the territory under their supervision, with special «tten tlon to liability lines. Mr. Howard wll make his home In Atlanta. General Agent John H. Mullen, of the liability department of the United .States Casualty Company, returned this week to Atlanta from a visit to the home office of the company In New York, where he was entertained by General Manager Edson 8. Lott. Special Agent B. F. Dryden, of the Federal and Assurance Company, of America, who has been spending sev eral weeks In New York city, has re turned to Atlanta. The campaign against feathers In ladles' hats has now reached France. The mom Humanitarian of ladles .have, naturally, been a trifle doubtful,of! the success of the movement, In spite of Its high patronage—In view of the fact that everything In regard to female fashion still follows the lead of Paris. But now we have here taken up the matter In which London, New York, Berlin and Amsterdam has already moved, and a league exists, whose ob ject It Is to combat the slaughter of young birds for feminine adornment. The president of the league Is a young lady named Mile. Marguerite des Varennes, who Is the secretary of the "Revae des Animaux Illustrees." and who, assisted by a few friends, founded It. Their Idea Is not to trou ble the legislature or the authorities, but to endeavor to Influence public opinion, and first of all, to Interest the modistes In the movement. One pplnt gained Is the fact that all who have heard about the matter seem to be surprised that hats can be made so at tractive without birds' feathers. "THE JUNGLE" HAS BEEN ODT JUNGLED—CALLS ROCKEFELLER "GREATEST TRIEE ON EARTH' "The From The Baltimore World. Beck to the tall timbers for Jungle” and Mr. Sinclair. Once upon a time an unsuspecting public Imagined they had read a book Ailed with lurid attacks upon the awful trusts—thought they had seen some crookedness exposed. Mr. Upton Sin clair even made money out of their so thinking. Congress got busy on the same account. Now they have discovered It was all mistake. "The Jungle" Is a very quiet, conservative and lady-llke story. "The Sweet ('Icily Sisters" are going to put it In their library. Why? Well, “The Jungle" has been outjungled. Lis ten to this; ”1 regard John D. Rockefeller as the greatest thief the wurld ever produced —greater than Charles the First or Louis XVI—and the greatest living hypocrite. Ills donations to the church are to close the mouth of the pulpit. He knows that If the pulpits of the country were to open up op his com mercial crimes he would be In the pen itentiary. I wrote my book, ‘The Strug gle,’ for the avowed purpose of placing John D. Rockefeller In the pentten- tlary.’’—Tapp. The man who put John D. Rockefel ler In the . penitentiary—In, it novel la a lawyer of Atlanta. Ga. He Is likewise the man who exposed Tom Taggart’s gambling Joint in French Lick Springs, resulting In the irosecutlon of the chairman of the democratic national committee. The Georgia author says he expects Ills hook to revolutionise American sen timent to such an extent that the Standard Oil magnate will get In reali ty what his counterpart In the novel got—not less than 20 years. The pictures drawn In Tapp's novel are so sharp and clear that, they are easily recognized. For Instance, John Suckelow, with neither hair nor eye brows and able to eat only crackers and milk, and one of the greatest com mercial pirates the world has ever seen, has been IdentlAed by the critics as John D. Pont Slogan A Co.'a ofdce, where all the villainy was perpetrated, has been recognised as a very good picture of the headquarters of J. Plerpont Mor gan, Wall street. New York. J. Ogden Armour has a double In the book, and It Is said that the people of North Carolina have IdentlAed one of the characters as John B. Duke, the tobac co trust man. It Is also said that the people of Georgia have recognized a similarity between John Horton, of the novel, and Hamilton McWhorter, the "Bill Phelps" of the Southern railway. The novel has created a sensation throughout the South. It le a terrible arraignment of the trusts and trust masters, whose com mercial tyranny Is depicted with great force by the author of the novel. The book Is called "The Struggle.” and it starts out by picturing the beau tiful home of a Blue Grass farmer surrounded by the happiness that should be his under normal ’commer cial conditions. Then the story shows the results of ’’trustlBm,” and with Ane strokes of sarcasm draws characters that are readily recognized as the heads of several of the country’s greatest combinations of capital. The author Is making no veriAcatlon nr denial of IdentlAcatlons. It Is said that a man who thinks he Is the origi nal of one of the characters In the book has threatened to prosecute the author. It would be a back-handed stroke of fate If a book written for the avowed purpose of sending the trust magnates to the penitentiary should land Its author In Jail. "The book Is a problematical novel dealing with the Industrial and com mercial conditions of our times,” said Tapp. "I wrote It to show up the Infamy of the trust magnates, and to prove, by deduction, that the Anglo- Saxon race Is capable of »Hf-govern ment. Of course. It has a love stnry, hut around that Is woven the facts that deal with our times. "I visited French Lick Springs In July und witnessed the gambling ex hibition In Taggart's establishment. I then made the revelations that started the ball rolling and resulted In his In dictment and the closing of his gam bling resort.” Tapp Is a graduate of the University of Chicago, which Is supported largely by the Rockefeller millions he attacks so venomously In hla book. He was presidential elector from Georgia on the Democratic ticket in 1904, and Is the author of the "Story of Anglo- Saxon Institutions,” which la now used as a text book In American and Euro, pean colleges. $25,362 PAID AS PREMIUM ON LIFE INSURANCE POLICY TON F. JACKSON, ATLANTA Manager Nat F. Jackson, of the Fidelity Mutual Life's Atlanta office, lays claim to having written during the past week for his company the largest single premium life Insurance policy ever taken In the South. The application was secured by Mr. Arllne, of Savannah, who recently became'Mr. Jackson's partner In the management, and the amount of the policy Is $60,000. The .Insured Is a well-known Anander of Savannah, and In payment of the pt-emlum he gave his check for the ump sum of $26,862. No further pay ments will have to be made on the policy. A life Insurance policy of an equal amount was also written this week In p. if Atlanta by Manager John S. Cowles, the Metropolitan Life, who, until early this year, was executive special agent of the Mutual Life, and who, since go ing with the Metropolitan, has reor ganized the Atlanta force pn til It Is the strongest office that company boasts In the South. The policy men tioned was on the life of a business man of large Interests, who took the policy as a special protection to his creditors, a practice that Is now meet ing with great favor all over the coun try. The annual premium on this pol icy Is $8,100. 61 r. Cowles has steadily held Aral place aa regards business written personally among all the agent* of the company In the United State* and Canada, which, considering that the company has nearly one million workers. Is a striking tribute to the quality of men that are attracted tu Atlanta aa a business center. PR OPER1YO WNERS INSURED AGAINST THE LOSS OF RENT Reports of miracles are not wanting again this year from Lourdes. One of the most pnthetlc of them Is the case of a girl of 18 who suffered from heart disease and had been given up for dead, who, on the host suddenly pass ing. sat up on her stretcher and Jumped to the floor. There are 40,000 stricken pilgrims now nt Lourdes, engaged In prayer nnd suppuration, and the scenes of excite ment—almost frensy—and anguish are very remarkable. The question of the weekly day of rest now become law In Paris, Is ex citing many classes of society. The law makes no mention of domestic ser vants. hut this body has now started nn agitation to be given the same priv ileges as people engaged In shops and factories. Another privilege that domestic ser vants are rlainnring for—those of the male persuasion—Is the privilege wear moustaches.
