WINE At BANQUET
NOT A VIOLATION
SUCH is THE OPINION or CITY
ATTORNEY MAYsoN,
or ATLANTA.

Following from yesterdays Atlanta
Journal will be of interest:
According to City Attorney James
l.. Aiayson. i Is not violation OF
the state prohibition law to serve
vines at banquet provided the en-
tertainment Is given in a bona flde
manner by q number of gentlemen,
or by a bona fide club or society, and
provided further that the banquetters
buy their own wines and pay for the
expense OF serving them And Mr.
Mayson believes that his view of the
matter Is correct. whether the ban.
quet be held at private residence.
clubhouse or hotel.
The whole question turns upon the
points as TO whether the place where
the banquet Is held is public or a
private place and the city attorney
takes the view that even where the
banquettes select hotel or the
place Of having the entertainment.
that so long us the public is not gen
orally invited, the place is n private
one for the purposes Of the occas.
ion.
Tho matter vas brought to the at
tenton Of Mr.. Mayson as the result
OF comment caused By the fact that
at the annual banquet OF the Vir-
ginla society. held ut the Piedmont
hotel Monday night. champagne was
served His opinion will be read
with the greatest interest, particu.
larly IN view OF the fact that Mr.
Mayson. is and has been for a long
number Of years one of the strong.
est prohibitlpnists in the state, and
it is known that any legal opinion he
might give comes f.om a careful
study of the law in question.
The question which you propounG
to me" said Dir. Mayson to q repre-
sentative of The Journal Wednesday
morning. "has not come to me in any
shape from the city authorities, and,
OF course. / have no desire TO in
trude any views upon anybody, but
since you ask my opinion as 4 Jaw

"The meat Of the r1atter," contip-

or the place where a banquet Is serv,

AmiabIe Disposition.
GIVEN OUTLINE OF PLANS
Tells Of His Work In Other Cities and
What He Expects To Accom-.
pIish In The Windy City.
GIVEN OUTLINE OF PLANS

Chicago, Feb. III. T. Cooper was
seen in his hotel this morning by a re.
porter and proved to be a compare
lively young man. as he is little over
thirty years of age.
Mr.. Cooper is the man who Is said
to have created sensation in eastern
cities by his extensive charitable work
and the enormous sale of two prepa-
rations of which he is the owner.
While talking his face lights up with
a smile, almost boyish in its expires
sion and he seems very young to have
acquired the enormous fortune he is
said to possess. When asked about
his plans for his visit to Chicago, he
said.
Il shall remain in this city about
four weeks. | have come here to in.
troduce my preparation in my usual
way, and will give the pubic ample
opportunity TO ascertain whether the
claims make for these medicines can
be verified.
1T is one of my beliefs that every
successful man should devote a pari
| of his resources to aiding the unfor
tunate. | rely to a great extent on
the public for information concerning
families, or individuals, who are in
need, and | will therefore, be very
grateful to all who will send me the
name and address of people who are
destitute.
Upon being asked about the public
removals of deafness, which he has
made in St Louis and other cities, Mr..
Cooper said. Il have appeared each
night in the cities have visited be-
fore audiences that ranged from two
to ten thousand people, and have stat
ed that | would remove in less than
three minutes time. deafness of years
standing
Il have treated in public in this
manner over a hundred people each
might. | shall do this work in Chi
cago to some extent, and will then
prove whether | am successful or not.
1t will be time to discuss this work
after have given one of these demon.
STATIONS, as my claims would now
seem extravagant
THE preparation with which ! give
these demonstrations is not the one
to which | owe my success, as my
