JULY PAYMENTS
RISE To TOTAL
Of S1,500,000
Banks Pay $285,5OO Dividends
Corporations, $547,475j Rest
Is Bond Interest Coupons.
BY M. A. ROSE.

Close to S1,500,000 in dividends and
interest on bonds will be paid within
the next two weeks by Atlanta cor
porations, the State of Georgia, the
city or by corporations in which At
lanta capital is heavily invested.
OF this s1.5O0OOo. it is estimated
half will go into the pockets of local
investors. The rest goes to New York
and Boston
The great half yearly melon cut
ting period is at hand. 1t is probable
there will not be another as big for
long time to come. for the quarter
ly payment plan, so popular in New
York, seems certain to be adopted
here. The Trust Company of Geor-
gia and the Lowry National Bank,
both S1,O0O,OOO institutions, have led
the way toward breaking up the big
half-yearly disbursements. and the
example will be followed by others.
Estimate Is Conservative.
The estimate Of $1.5OO,OOo is we'll
within the truth. Indeed, if there
we're any way of learning the profits
of the several large industries in the
city which are close corporations. and
Of ascertaining the profits of the de-
partment stores and jobbing houses,
which likewise are in the hands of
few stockholders, the semi-annual
disbursements would be found well
over S2,500,000, il is believed
OF the S1.50O,O00 known disburse-
ments, $2S5,50 represents the divi-
bends of Atlanta banks, and s547,4
the dividends of local railroad and
Industrial enterprises in which the
public is interested. The rest is in
terest on bonds.

Bank Dividends.

The Trust Company Of Georgia pays
quarterly, the others, semi annually.
The Fulton National and Travellers
Bank and Trust Company probably
will not pay dividends. Both are
young institutions which believe It

tial earnings to surplus account rath-
er than draw down" profits just now.
Dividends of Corporations.
Here are the corporations which will
pay July dividends:
Empire Cotton Oil Company, 3 VIZ
per cent. on $1,255,0O0 preferred.
Atlantic Ice and Coal Corporation,
8 per cent. on $1,250O0O preferred and
8 per cent. on S2,300,000 common.
Exposition Cotton Mills, per cent.

preferred.
Southern Ice Company, per cent,
on S1,SS5 900 preferred.
Realty Trust Company, 8 per cent.
on 100000
The Georgia Railroad is not strict
~ an Atlanta corporation. 1t pays
through Augusta, but the stock is
largely held in Atlanta. The South
ern Ice Company is a Nashville cor
poration. but its stock also is held
extensively in Atlanta.
These figures are not official an
nouncements in any case, but are
based on past records and the best
information available as many of the
boards OF directors have not met as
yet.
July Bond Coupons.
The State of Georgia has July coup
ons on the following bonds: S3,S99, 900
of 1-2's and $2s2,500 of rs. Semi

err Company SIS, $12,49S,000. Total
semi annual interest on these issues
is $3S9,700
A total of $64S.s52.5O therefore will
be paid by the city, the State, and
Atlanta corporations as interest on
bonds with July coupons.
OF this amount, dealers in securi-
ties believe not more than 100000
will be paid to residents of the city.
To this 100000 must be added $50 600.
which represents the July coupons on
100000 of bonds issued by small

Wier..Mhes

The marriage of Miss Nesta Lou
Use Miles, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Alonzo Lee Miles, formerly. of this
city, and Mr.. Charles Henry .Wier,
Jr., took place Wednesday evening,
at Memorial Protestant Episcopal
Church, Baltimore, and was follow
ed by reception at the home OF
the bride, on West Lanvale street.
The ceremony was performed by the
rector, Rev. DR.. William M. Dame.
The bride entered with her father,
by whom she was given in marriage,
and was met by the groom, atten-
ded by his best man, Mr.. George
Wier.
The bride wore gown of white
charmeuse, trimmed with rose point
lace, and a tulle veil, trimmed with
orange blossoms, and carried
shower bouquet of lilies-of-the-val-
ley. Miss Lillian May Hooper was
maid of honor land wore pale pink
crepe de chine gown, with pink

ney roses. The bridesmaids, Misses

garet Waters and Marie Warner,al

Al The Chautauqua.

| Mr.. and Mrs. Such and Miss Brod
beck, who delighted large audience
at the Chautauqua yesterday after
noon, were equally as popular last
night. Mrs. Such proved to be a
skilled pianist, while her husband
| was equally as efficient a violinist.
Miss Brodbeck had an enviable So
| prano voice. During the early part
of the evening, while Miss Brodbeck
| was singing, all the electric lights
went out The soloist, who was rem,
dering one of her most difficult
numbers, refused to become alarm
ed at the darkness, and finished the
piece. Later, Rev. Mr.. Perry bor-
rowed two candles, which he held
near the piano, in order that Mrs.
Such might see how to accompany
| the singer until the lights appeared
The Chautauqua has given us
music galore, and it has been good
cry variety; there have been lee
| lures, and they have included poll
tics, religion and many of the topics
that interest the American people
of today Last night there was
another lecture, but it was of a
different kind; the lecturer belong
ed to a different school. A man
of science was Reno B. Welbourn,
who not only proved all his ex-
periments, but was able to make
his explanations so plain that even
little child could understand them.
In introducing him, Rev. Perry
stated that Mr.. Welbourn was one
of a few scientists who had had the
distinction of lecturing at Yale Uni
versity. With the use of an cleo
trio bulb and a set of batteries, he
demonstrated how, in short time,
blind men would be taught to see
by hearing In another experiment
he showed how the latest burglar
alarm calls for assistance when the
burglars shadow is thrown on the
apparatus.
In another test he explained how
photographs may be transmitted ov-
er telephone. Mr.. Welbourn stat
ed that two newspapers, one in Lon
don and another in Birmingham, are
trying this experiment, and so far
it has been perfectly satisfactory.
He also demonstrated how burg
lar could burn a hole large enough
to get his arm through, in safe,
in few seconds, and get off with
the contents in a very short time.
He refused to tell the kind of
chemical he used, saying that upon
such occasions he never divulged
the kind of acid he used.
At half-past two o'clock this aft
ernoon Rev. E. r. Perry lectured
on "The Place of Every Man and
Woman in Changing Conditions.
Following this, The Dietrics enter
tanned the audience with music and
gave some exhibitions of magic. At
four o'clock Rosani, the prince of
jugglers, bewitched the spectators
with his wonders.
