CAPT. Joiner is GIVEN
HONORS IN MASONRY
Americas Man Half Century
a Mason

Nearly a half-century OF Masonry,
during which time he had held the
most important offices and the high
est honors that his brothers could be-
stow is the record of Captain John C.
Joiner, a native of Americas, but for
years a citizen of Atlanta and known
in Masonic circles throughout the
South
Captain Joiner is a brother of Mr..
Thomas J. Joiner, of Americas, and
has many old friends here.
Captain Joiner became a Mason soon
after the close of the civil war He
has seen the order slowly grow after
the reverses of the strife, when 50
many hundreds of it's members were
killd in the struggle.
Born in Americas in 1910, Captain
Joiner was initiated INTO the Ameri-
Gus Lodge, No. 10, F. & A. NJ, in 1867.
He chose to travel the York rite and
joined Wells chapter, No AZ, R A NJ,
in 1869.
Atlanta became the home of Cap
tain Joiner in 1877, and he has lived
there continuously since. He affiliated
with Atlanta chapters of his order and
advanced farther, joining the Jason
Burr Council of Royal and Selected
Masters, and Occur de Lion Command
cry, when he became a Knight Tenn
.plar.
Long service, answering loyalty,
tireless work and the esteem of his
brothers then caused the elevation Of
Captain Joiner to a series of honors
which very few men in the realms Of
Masonry have enjoyed
He became successfully worshipfIl
master of Atlanta Lodge, No. 50, F. &
A. NJ, in 1895; High Priest of Mt.
Zion Chapter, No. IS, R. A. NJ, in 1895;
Eminent Commander Occur de Lion
Commandery, No. 4, Knights Templars,
1896, and then 1903 he was elected
Grand High Priest, r. a. NJ, of the
state of Georgia, at the convocation in
Macon
Following these honors, Captain
Joiner was presented with the jewels
of past master, past high priest, past
eminent commander and past grand
high priest, a sequence which is pos
sessed by men whom you could count
on your fingers.
Captain Joiner was Georgia's repre-
sentative at the Grand Triennial con-
vention of r. A. M in Boston in 1904,
Commander A. w. Walton to represent
and was selected by Eminent Grand
Georgia as Grand Captain Generals IF
knights Templars at the triennial Of
the Grand Encampment Of Knights
Templars at Pittsburg in 1897
Such a list is evidence enough of the
prestige which Captain Joiner enjoys
in the lodges of his brotherhood. His
elevation to- high honors after faith
fully fulfilling minor ones is proof Of
his reputation as the best drill master
of the knights Templars in Atlanta.

IT MAKES A Difference
In PRICE OF LANDS
Sixty DOlIaFSi in Sumter Three
Dollars Elsewhere

Six thousand dollars for one hun
dred acres Of farm land in Sumter
county. Six thousand dollars for two
thousand acres of farm land in a
county adjoining Sumter. This is the
net result of two sales made recently
by Americas parties and reflects the
value of land as controlled by location.
In one instance land in Sumter is
sold at sixty dollars per acre. In
the other instance a whole plantation
in another county was sold at three
dollars per acre.
A difference in locality and-a diff
ference in land values.
The Sumter county farm, snug lit
tie place of one hundred acres, lies
near Americas. 1t is upon one of Sum-
ter's good roads. There are no i'm
provements upon it, probably, except
a few cabins or perhaps a ocrncrib.
But it lies in Sumter county; it is
close to Americas and upon a fine
road, and the Improvements needed
will be made soon and then 500 per
acre would be considered cheap for
it. A model farm it will be ere long
and as productive as a gold mine to
the proprietor.
The beautiful plantation of two
thousand acres lying in another coun-
ty and which sold recently for three
dollars per acre, or $4,000 is not al
together undesirable.
The land is fairly fertile; some of II
really excellent, and streams cOurs'
ing through it render it excellent as
a stock farm. Upon it is grand Old
colonial mansion which probably cost
$4,000 to erect. Certain it is, Il
could not be replaced now for that
amount.
But the place is rather remote; labor
is none too plentiful there, mad no
good graded road, such as Sumter has
goes by the farm. The recent owner
considered himself fortunate in haV-
ing made such an advantageous sale Ot
his beautiful plantation at three dol
lars per acre
That same plantation with its old
colonial mansion and broad acres, il
located near Americas or upon one
of Sumters good roads, would be
worth $4,000 easily. Good roads en-
nance land values in Sumter.

IRISH CHEER
ROYAL PAIR
King and Queen Grsstsd
Heartily at Dublin.

Dublin, July Skiing George and
Queen Mary, on board the royal yacht
Victoria and Albert, arrived at Kings
town. They were accompanied by the
Duke Of Connaught, who Is aboard the
yacht Alexandria.
There were thirty warships In the
harbor. They presented a magnificent
spectacle, being the largest fleet ever
assembled in Irish waters.
The breakwater and the landing
steps were thronged with people, CIV
ing a foretaste of the hearty welcome
that awaits the royal visitors upon
their actual arrival In the emerald
isle. Cheering began as the yachts
drew near to the shore, and there was
a hearty roar as the vessels went to
their moorings.
King George went to the bridge Of
the Victoria and Albert and saluted.
Queen Mary, the Prince Of Wales and
Princess Victoria stood by his side.
The approaches to Kingstown were
choked with eager Dublin1tes for
hours previous to the arrival Of the
royal yachts, and half the population
of the capital seemed to be at the
harbor to greet the king and queen,
who could not have been otherwise
thar grati1ed at the warmth of the re-
ception.
Many interpret the action as the
nearest expression Of sympathy that a
constitutional monarch Is able to make
toward their political aspirations.

WILL RACE TO
WHITE HOUSE
Political Elephant and Dom

New York, July SIN a fort

ing at Mr.. Taft's front door, in Wash
ington, the traditional G. o. P. SYM
Dol in the form of a huge Luna Park
elephant, or the o. B. B. (Order of
Bill Bryan, in the form of Jennie
H., a slate colored, Iop-eared donkey.
Or maybe the Alternately trio of Ok
lahoma "bear-cats" Colonel Jack,
Captain Temple and Lieutenant Lou
ise) will be the first to mount the
Presidents steps.
The donkey, the elephant and the
Abernathys started last night on a
Presidential race to the national cap
ital from Luna Park, where all three
have been attractions this summer.
Strictly speaking, the Abernathys are
not ~contenders in the race. They
are simply going along as pathfind-
ers.
At the start last night the eIe-
plant was ridden by Frank Walker,
who used to be with Barnum &
Bailey's, and Jack Smith. The ele-
plant wore a decoration of red and
white lanterns and held in its trunk
a huge white flag upon which was in
scribed, white House or Bust in
1912"
Jennie II. was ridden by Jack Ev-
ans, and was bare of all decoration
except a ribbon tied to its business
like saddle pommel. The donkey
was a 2 to l ~favorite in the betting,
and manifested its appreciation of
the odds by opening up a gap of half
a mile between it and the elephant
by the time Manhattan Bridge was
reached. The Abernathys mounted
on fleet ponies, had their work cut
out for them to keep up with the
bob-tailed little Democrat.
On the first lap of the 250-mile
journey, which ended at T~ottenville,
S. l., a bulletin showed the big Re
publican to be two miles behind.
The route today will lead through
Perth Amboy to New Brunswick and
as far toward Trenton as possible.
The race started as the result Of a
conversation between Fred Thomp-
son and 'Uncle Joe" Cannon two
weeks ago in Washington.
You're going to get licked good
and plenty next year" said Thomp-
son to Cannon The Democrats will

Rome, July SIT seems practi-

commission appointed to consider
Premier Giolitti's new life insurance
monopoly bill will make a favorable
report and that the measure will be-
come law in the near future
The bills purpose is to make a
government monopoly of the life in
surance business. From the moment
that it becomes effective both Italian
and foreign insurance companies
will have to cease operations in Italy.
Nor will the government reimburse
them for any losses they may sustain.
These will probably be considerable,
