HARD IN ATLANTA

Introduction.
Especial to Times-Recorder1

Atlanta, Ca, March 15.-Governor
Brown, who was to have introduced
Peary, the alleged discoverer of the
north pole, to an Atlanta audience to-
morrow night, has declined to per-
form that function, giving as his rea-
son that ke does not consider the
claims put forth by Peary to be trust
worthy. In crude English, Governor
Brown regards Peary as a fakir, and
he gives his reasons for so believing
at some length.
