CrematOry Up To
Aldermen; Mayor
Says He Will Sign

Only the action of the Aldermanic
Board is required to close the S26O,OO0
crematory contract. The contract was
approved by the lower branch OF
Council Monday afternoon and, after
the action of the Aldermanic Board,
Mayor Woodward has signified he
will sign il.
The question of whether Atlanta Is
to have a municipal electric plant IN
conjunction with the crematory, as
provided by the old contract, is mat
ter of doubt. Mayor WOodward's dis
approval Of a resolution asking for an
option from the Destructor Company
was overridden at the meeting, but

ing his sons wives names in the So
ciety columns" ,r< -
His daughter isn't that kind. She
lives very quietly. But l think it will
throw some commentary upon our
friends remarks if tell you the
story. 1t is strange, too, because the
affair happened at this hotel.
Let us begin with John Kemble.
Kemble was Maine man, just sim
ple-hearted, ingenious lad of little
education but plenty of character and
a certain Puritan discipline in his ma
ture-frank, open as the day, and
about as sunny. He drifted to New
York to make his way in the world.
After a few weeks he got job wash
ing dishes in this hotel Pentman was
running it then-it was before you
young fellows day.
"Old Lathrop and his daughter Mu
riel were staying here together. The
mother had just died after long ill
ness, through which Miss Muriel had
nursed her devotedly. This place was
little gayer then than it is now, but
it was very much the same, a quiet
dignified resort for the wealthy. Kem-
BILE being handy sort of chap, used
to help in the stables in the morning
when the young ladies took out the
saddle horses. In this way he made
Miss Muriel's acquaintance.
Now, just what it was that at
tracted her about him l can't for the
life of me imagine. Perhaps it was
because he was utterly different from
any man whom she had ever met
before. Her class of man was bum
die of conventions, a sort of puppet
whose highest aim was to do the
proper thing. Here was an Amer
lean, in the most mental of positions,

tical imperfections were only equaled
by their want of character. Disloyal,
sgreedy, selfish and single-hearted in
their pursuit of what they wanted.
He was railing like that when one of
the men who had sat silently listen
ing spoke up.
:, did you ever hear the story of
John Kemble and Miss Lathrop?" he
asked.

.PEARY REPLIES TO
DR.. COOKS CHARGES
Admiral Breaks Long Silence in
Polar Controversy by Deny
ing Theft Claim

BENTON HARBOR. Mich. Nov. 22.
-(Special) al)--Rear-Adaniral Robert +,
Peary, recognized throughout the
world as the discoverer Of the north
pole, has broken his long silence IN
the face of the charges Of DR.. Cook,
his polar rival, and has Issued re.
ply to several charges made by Dr.
Cook in his address here.
Through local attorneys Admiral
Peary refers to the action OF several
distinguished geographical societies in
regard to his recognition as discoverer
of the pole, and takes up In detail
DR.. Cooks allegation that he stole his
supplies at Etah. Peary denies this
charge In toto, declaring that he has
receipt from DR.. Cook which proves
that all his supplies we're left In good
shape. Peary alleges that he simply
set his men to guard the supplies
while he ministered to the one scurvy'
afflicted German whom Cook had left
behind. .
Admiral Peary's reply was brought
about by the fact that he lectured
here one night and Dr. Cook the next
and that this community was wrought
up to fever heat by the charges and
counter charges made by the two po-
lar rivals.
