Tn. radiant sexr Ghost.

An interesting house Of commons
ghost is the radiant boy" This
child ghost has been many times seen
and heard. Its complexion Is of the
colorless purity of Chinese white. a
halo of silver sparkles about its head
during its peregrinations, and its eyes
CLEAN In their sockets like bright cleo
trio lamps. 1t Is evidently III agony,
for the palms of its hands are stiff
and turned downward. and as it PAGES
from room TO room 1t gives utterance
to means Of anguish and never lifts
its gaze from the floor. So far as can
be ascertained this particular ghost
has no pre-spectral history, and why
it should have chosen the house for
Its haunt is a mystery London Mail.

State of Georgia-Cobb County.
To Whom it May Concern:

state OF Georgla-Cobb County
To Whom it May Concern:
Notice is hereby given that applica-
ton will be made at 10 O'Clock a. m,
on July 18th, next before His Honor,
Judge N. A. Morris, at the court house
in Marietta, Georgia, for leave to sell
for the purpose of REIMBURSEMENT, that
parcel of land situated in said county
of Cobb, described as follows:
Lot No. 10 of the W. w. Mccullough
survey OF the Burwell Atkinson prop
erty, described and bounded as fol-
lows: A part of lot of land No. 744 in
the 18th District and second section
Of Cobb County, Georgia, commencing
900 feet south of the north line of said
land lot No. 744 at the northwest cor
ner of said lot No. 10, thence running
east 944 feet to the Marietta and At
lanta public road, thence south along
said road 100 feet to the southeast
corner of said lot No. 10, thence west
334 feet to the southwest corner of
said lot No. 10, thence north 100 feet
to starting point.
The reason for selling said property
for re-investment is that it is vacant
and yields no income whatever, not
even enough to pay the state and
county taxes yearly assessed against
it. 1t is not desirable to improve the
same for investment purposes and the
undersigned's ward has not the means
for so doing. 1t is desired to invest
the proceeds from the sale of said
property in certificates of the Atlanta
Oil and Fertilizer Company, a per-
fectly solvent corporation which will
yield 6 per cent. per annum on same.
1t is desired to sell said lot at private
sale and an order for that purpose will
be asked, as above.

When Cricket Playing Was a Crime.


Until a century aud half ago our
great national pastime in fact figured
in the statute book as a crime. The
game was declared Illegal In the time
OF Edward ~. owing to its having
become so popular as to interfere with
archery. the then sport OF kings. The
law against it was vigorously enforced
and every person convicted OF playing
the game was fined fl0 or sent TO pris
on. 1t was not until the formation OF
the famous Hambledon club In las
that the statute was repealed -tall
