MUTUAL BURIAL
Sec. UNDERF|RE

Charging that Wyatt A. Lewis, secre-
tary, has been using the receipts of
the Atlanta Mutual Burial association,
41S Temple Court building, as personal
assets, with utter disregard for death
claims, J. r. Marlar today asked supe-
rior court for receiver for the asso-
citation and strict accounting from
Lewis.
Marlar asserts that he was made ben
eiciary for policy held by B. M. Mar
lar, who died on March 5. 1912. Lewis
acting as secretary of the burial asso
citation, regarded the claim as a joke
and refused to pay the 800 said to be
due. although B. Nj. Marian had paid
his assessments to the dot,
The burial association Marian pro-
nounces a fraud. He says the company
got out attractive literature. repre-
senting LOO paying members, all OF
whom had dug down for a 50-cent ini-

Marlar maintains that Lewis is coll
lecting and has collected large sums OF
money from members and is appropri
ating the money to his own use, with
no idea of settling claims.

Name or Portrait of
General Lee Barred
From Whisky Labels
Alabama Will Not Allow Desecra-
ton of Memory of Confed-
crate Chieftain.

MONTGOMERY, ALA, June Tt
would be dissertation, almost approach
ing sacrilege, to permit the name or
picture of General Robert f. Lee on a
whisky label in Alabama. This is the
verdict of r. F. Kolb. commissioner Of
agriculture, who has issued final ulti-
matum to S. j. Lang & Son, liquor
manufacturers of st. Louis, that they
can not sell the Robert E. Lee brand of
whisky in this state.
At the instance of numerous Confed-
crate anizations Of Alabama. Com
missioner Kolb several months ago
prohibited the sale of this liquor, or at
least the use of the label This week
the manufacturers wrote Commissioner
Kolb letter. urging him to rescind his
former order.
The commissioner replied that he is
a Confederate veteran and respects the
name Of General Lee too much to see it
used on whisky labels. He told the
manufacturers that if they cared to be
heard they would be permitted to do
so, but it would be useless as he has
determined to prohibit the Robert e..
Lee label as long as he is in office.
