tains choice reading to meet all tastes.

While Cream is appropriately named,
as it contains the cream of English litera-
ture. the most wonderful part are the
magnificent premiums that are to be

one dollar per year. and with it is given
the choice of seven beautiful pictures,

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 9.-Another arrest
was made this afternoon in the Police
man Ponder murder case. which has been
the sensation of the day, the whole town
specializing upon the probable identity of
the party who took the officers life.
The man arrested to-day is julie Wiley,
who has figured in a number of criminal
cases, notably the Halves murder at Biz
mingham, though nothing was proven
against him. His present arrest is due to
alleged transactions with Louis Steinau,
proprietor of the liquor house in which
Ponder was killed, and who is himself
under arrest, suspected of completely in
the deed.
julius Simon, Steinau's brother-in-law,
and Walter OQuinn, his clerk, are still
held, together with the three negro en-
ployes of Steinau. The only persons who
knew the combination or Stelnau'S Sate,
which was found open after Ponder was
shot, was Steinau himself, Simon and
OQuinn. The police still adhere to the
theory that an effort was being made to
rob the safe of papers valuable TO Stei-
nau in his litigation, and then prevent
them from falling into the hands of the
receiver, who had just been appointed, or
that the store was to be looted of stock,
that Ponder, who was suspicious of the
place, entered and surprised the men in
their operations, and was killed to pre-
vent exposure.
After the shooting a man was seen to
run out of the back entrance to the store
and disappear in the alley.
Louis Steinau lives in one of the hand
soonest homes on Washington street, the
south side of "Peachtree," and has been
regarded as a man of considerable wealth.
He owned and operated three of the swell
est saloons in the city. The fact that
the cash drawer of his wholesale house
was burglarized several weeks ago, while
the saloon adjoining was open in full
blast, adds another feature to the cause
of suspicion against him and his en-
ployes.
