Big Tigers Have Been
Put Out of Business.

Nearly all of the regular blind
tigers, those at least operating on
a large scale, including the king Of
them all, Dan Shaw. have been put
out Of business and put in the
changing. Those remaining out
of captivity consist almost entire
~ of the little fellows who slip
around the streets with two or
three half pints in their pistol pock-
cts and offer their wares for sale
to the thirsty countrymen in the
wagon yards, and our vigilant pc
lice bag many of these daily, and
they go to increase the hard work
ing population at the city's rock
pile.
Another violation which is on the
increase in our city is the pistol
'toting" habit possessed by many
OF Atlanta's citizens, and especial
Iy by large numbers of our negro
population This unlawful and
deadly practice must be broken up
if we are to have peace, order and
law in our city. The courts, mu-
nicipal and state should deal with
these offenders with iron hands and
put them in the chaingang where
they belong.
But this habit has become so
fixed with many. that even this Sc
we're punishment, even if the courts

Waste Paper Sale
Swells Receipts.

The receipts are given their greatest
volume by the sale of stamps, which IS
the principal revenue Of the postofflce.
DEFENDERS receipts, as example, are:
Stamps, $9S,234.S9; stamped envelopes,
$796616; newspapers and periodicals,
Sl0,222.93: average on sale of stamped
envelopes, 1851; third and fourth class
matter, s3S3.45; box rents, $2S.O5; waste
paper $61.72. Total, $116,902.S1.
The waste paper item is an indica-
ton that all Is grist which goes into
Uncle Sans mill. The economical gov
eminent does not allow the destruc-
ton of waste paper about the post
offices, but demands that 1t be gath
cred and sold. At the rate of twenty
cents a hundred pounds. the December
receipts from this item show that 80,
900 pounds of paper were cleaned from
the work room and corridors Of the
postofflce
Promise Of the construction OF an
addition to the Atlanta postoffice is
implied in the figures, Postmaster Nc
Kee believes. The increase in business
amounting to ten per cent, within a
year after the postoffice was occupied
furnishes basis for the prophecy that
within a few years time the present
facilities will not be sufficient to allow
for the handling Of the business. This
is the outlook with the old system.
With the parcels post in operation and
with heavy patronage Of that branch
of the service the need Of more room
will be more imminent, according to
the postmaster.

ALUMNI DAY At PENN
Old Graduates Put in Day Boosting
for the College. -..

Yesterday was Alumni day at Penn
and many OF the old grads were pres
ent to meet old and new friends. The
morning was turned over to the BALI
game which the Alumni came very
close TO winning from the College
The business meeting was held in the
afternoon and besides the routine
business the Alumni recommended to
the College Board to use the interest
on a $4,000 fund toward the upkeep
of the athletic field. Besides doing
this the Alumni raised $500 during
the day toward fixing up the athletic
field and expect to have raised an.
other thousand dollars today for the
same purpose. If this amount is rails
ed it means that the field will be lev
eled off new cinder track put in and
grandstand will be erected on the
west side of the field with a base ball
diamond being changed around to
the northwest end OF the field. This
will be a big thing for Penn and it
shows the boosting spirit of PENIS
Alumni. The Alumni also appointed
three representatives from the east.
eTn central and western parts of the
country to take care of the Alumni
news and hereafter the Alumni will
have al arge place in the Chronicle
each issue. AT five O'Clock the Alum.
nj had a picnic on the Penn campus
which was attended by quite a mum.
