He carried life insurance policy $4,000,
which was paid la December of the same
year When the policy was paid, the money
was turned over to his brother, Mr., John
ID. Cooper, the administrator OF his es>
tate, and the amount was placed in the
American Trust and Banking Co., of At
lanta, not to the credit of the estate, but
to the account of Mr.. John 81. Cooper.
AT the time the deposit was made. and
before Mr.. Cooper had become insane, The
bank is said to have held several unpaid
notes of John Cooper. When the bank
was informed of Mr. Coopers mental con-
dition, the insurance money was used by
the bank to apply to these overdue notes.
1t IS claimed that the amount Of the money
used was $1,000. Previous to this time Mr..
Cooper had checked out enough of the
$4,000 to leave balance of $500, and
this was the amount demanded by Capt. R.
W. Boone, the new administrator. The
bank raised the point tina! it had no
knowledge that the money belonged to
the estate of B. F. Cooper, and thought it
should be protected when it applied the
$4,000 to Mr.. John Cooper's individual
no;es. The jury returned verdict in
Fulton Superior Court last week for the
heirs in the full amount asked for with
$4OO interest, making the total verdict
$4,000. administrators Boone and heirs
were represented by Attorneys Clay &
Blair, W. r. Power, of Marietta, and
Arnold & Arnold, of Atlanta while the
bank was represented by attorneys Ellis &
Gray.

| Not every man who runs for an office or
tor nomination to one, can get it. There
fore, when man submits his name to his
party as candidate for an Office he does
so with the distinct implication that he is
party man and will abide by the result
of the party. Therefore, in ali good con-
science, every man who aspires to noai-
nation in the primary owes it to himself
and to his friends who vote for him, to
yield to the will and preference of the ma
jority and support the nominees without
murmur or complaint. For any candi>
date to do otherwise would be Unfair treat
ment of the good democrats who vote Tor
him, and besides, would be an injustice to
himself and them, not to do So
Marietta is not a good show town
About the only kind patronized is Of local
origin. A public hall would help to pop
ularize itinerant entertainments. People
will net attend unless they have good &C
commodations. Why not convert the
Male Academy into an opera house. 1t
is close to the square and 'there would be
no interruption by outside noise.

Covetousness and envy enter largely in-
to the composition o! some men. Not
content with one good business, they
branch out into the other fields to entrench
on the business of some one else. Some
times experience will teach them that
they dropped the substance 70 grasp the
shadow. Greed and selfshness often
brings adversely.

Fortune has often been blamed for her
blindness but Fortune is not so blind as
men are. Those who look into practical
life will find that fortune is usually on the
side of the industrious, as the winds and
waves are on the side of the best havi-
gators.
