chari.y.c Biggest Achievement,

The highest achievement Of char
fly Is to love our enemies; but to
bear cheeriully with our ne1ghbor's
failings Is scarcely an inferior grace
1t is easy enough to love those who
are agreeable and obliging; but to
love one who is cross, perverse, tie
some, Is as unpleasant a process as
chewing pills. Nevertheless, this, the
best way of practising it, is to put our
selves in the place of him who tries
us, and to see how we would wish
him to treat US IL we had his defects
We must put ourselves In the place Of
buyer when we sell, and seller when
we buy, if we want to deal fairly

D. Richardson. grand commander of the southern Jurisdiction, together with the full official diyan of the supreme council of the rite whose headquarters are at Washington. D. c.
 During the reunion the degrees of the rite, fourth to 32d inclusive, will be conferred for the first time in At- lanta on a class of about 200 candidates representing every section of Geor- gia, and the handsome apartments of the rite on the upper floor of the tenn pie will be dedicated and formally opened.
 The apartments include perhaps the largest stage of modern construction in the southeast. and the contracts for equipment including nearly 100 pieces of scenery. necessary for the proper exemplification of the work, together with a mammoth lighting plant, the total cost of which is approximately s12,O00, have already been closed and the installation will begin as soon as the artists can complete the work.
 It Is safe to assume that nothing so ambitious as this reunion has ever been undertaken by Scottish Rite Ma sons of the southern Jurisdiction and the indications are that Masonic stu dents from all parts of the country will come here for the purpose of witness ing the ceremonies.

A LITTLE GLOOM
 AT BUCK SHOALS

Asheville, N. C., November 22.-(Spe- cial)-The Baker Edwards were happy at the Slzyland hotel on Thursday when they overwhelmed Echols McBee and also yesterday when they felt that the storm times which featured their engagement and marriage were past, but yesterday came a emulation of bad news which left them rather Respondent.
 From the receiver of Buck Shoals came the news that he would not rent the place to them; ffom their counsel the statement that Colonel McBee had claimed to the receiver that the Buck Shoals company owned all the personal prop erty at the house, even to the portart of Mrs. Edwards mother and from Nor folk renewed stories that the former Mrs. Edwards was threatening to upset the divorce Baker Edwards obtained from her on the ground that she had been deceived as to it's institution. Then when there was local talk that Echols McBee intended to parade all the evil dence in open court again under guise of appealing from the order of Justice Fletcher taxing him with costs in the warrant case on Thursday the gloom deepened.
 Then came the notice from insurance agents that unless the premiums on the S11,000 carried on Buck Shoals was paid at once the policies would be cancelled The receiver has no funds with which to pay and the Edwards do not feel like advancing the premiums.

Collapse of Riot Cases.

Springfield H., November 22.-After four hours deiiberation, the jury in the case of Abe Raymer, alleged leader of the mob in race riots of last August, last night returned a verdict of not guilty. He was tried on a charge of malicoIs destruction of property. When tried several weeks ago for mur- der in connection with the lynching of Donnsgan, an aged negro Raymer was found not guilty. The grand jury re- turned IT indictments in the riot cases and there has not yet been convic- tion, although a number of cases have been tried. Tonight's verdict Is taken to mean a collapse of the riot cases.

parents in the matter, and that she has consented to give up her husband, either temporarily or for all time
 There are some who look for an early application to the courts on the part of the Speers for an annulment of the marriage on the ground that their daughter was unduly influenced In entering into a nasty contract and also on the ground of fraud, though no law was violated, in the procurement Of the marriage license.
 They say that color is lent to this view by the Speers' return; that if Mrs. Thomas had not consented, she would have been kept in Europe.
 Despite which there are others who believe that the arrangement which the Speer family has succeeded in bringing about is only temporary. Interest in the affair has only ap- parently abated, and there is keen ex- pectation as to what will be the next ful heiress to an estate of a million -qlnoG eql 10 elbJ eql suEAIoAu1 eAou and quarter or more.

WAITING FOR NEXT MOVE
 IN SPEER-THOMAS MIX-UP

Atlanta, November 22=0Special.) )- Strangely enough gossip has scarcely touched upon the recent runaway mar riage of Miss Silvey Speer and young Russell Thomas, at the time her chauffeur, since the return from Eu rope almost two weeks ago of Mrs. W. A. Speer and her daughter. Mrs. Thomas.
 Mr. Thomas has secured employment in a large department store where he has kept steadily at work, and so far as anyone knows he has not seen his bride since her return to Atlanta. On the street or at work he appears in good spirits, and does not seem par ticularly worried over his marital diff faculties.
 Mrs. Speer and her daughter returned quietly and unheralded to their Peach tree street home after an absence in Europe of less than two months. The very fact of their return to Atlanta Is construed to mean that Mrs. Thomas has been won over to the wishes of her
