Active work and speedy compile tion of the fund for the Children's Playground are the plans of the com mittee which have that matter in charge and there will not be further Ielays where preventable. It was un-
 ortunate that just as the campaign vas really commenced the meningi
 Is scare arose and caused a decided 5et back. It was this scare and the attendant quarantine regulations that nave delayed action on the part of a umber of lodges in the city. that aused a discontinuance of the Royal Theatre benefit in the middle of the
 'eek, caused a postponement of oth- T benefit performances and detract- d from the success of the Roney soys concert which came just after he quarantine was raised and while many were still timid of attending public performances or entering
 roWded buildings. These are the set packs that have been encountered ont
 ne committee is by no means discov- cred and will now take a fresh start.
 For the first time this month the Playground committee met yester- lay and looked over the ground cov- red, Before the quarantine regula- ions went into effect the Eagles and
 he Bartenders Union had each con ributed S25. the Elks had a fund of
 50, the Anona Club had a fund and
 eplies from one other lodge indi
 ated a subscription forthcoming.
 .ince then the Elks have agreed to
 give another dance. to be held next aonth and place the proceeds to the
 redit of the fund and replies from
 Wo other lodges indicate favorable 'ction in the near future. The com nittee had delayed the placing of contribution boxes and the solicita-
 ion of general subscriptions until liter the lodges were heard from and low viii wait no longer. Further etters will be sent to the various so- cieties but without waiting longer contribution boxes will be ordered this week and upon arrival will i'm mediately be placed Then should come the really active campaign that Is the latest plan.
 There has never been a time when Bisbee has not responded nobly to any call. If the city can so easily raise s5,000 or more for Fourth of July celebration the committee feels sure that it will do proportionately well in furnishing funds for this pub lie improvement and for the benefit of the young folk. Such a celebration furnishes enjoyment for but day or two, they say, while the playground will furnish enjoyment for the little folks for years to come. Hence mem bers of the committee express confi- dence although admitting that set back was received They take it as a greater incentive for work ana ac- tiyity from now on so that the play ground may be opened in the coming sumner if possible.

 The verdict, while a vlndicatlon the business methods of the defend ants, does not open the way for tn completion of the railroad, as tn coal lands still are withdrawn iron entry and will remain so until re leased by the department of the in terior.
 Mir. Frost said after the acquitta that construction of the road depend en on the opening of the coal land and that it was at a standstill whil the country was closed to locators Interdependence of the road and the coal land owners was one of tht points most strongly urged by ths prosecution. It was frequently ad mitted by Frost, but the fact appar ently had no weight with the jury.
 The men acquitted were:
 Albert c. Frost of Chicago. former president of the Alaska Central rail way.

Tenants who contemplate moving

Der TO take quarters whose leases
were signed as OF October l, Then
there are others who viii move No

for the first of the year.

II possible for the management of

mum of inconvenience to tenants
While the date for completion was

II. F. Martin Is Manager.
According TO announcement made
Saturday, II. F. Martin, one OF the
best known office building authorities
in the South, will be manager of the
Hurt Building. Mr.. Martin has charge
OF the loan department of the A. j.
& H r. West Real Estate Agency
and was recently chosen to manage
the Avalon apartments, at the south
and West North avenue.
The Hurt Building is the property
Of the Atlanta Realty Corporation,
Joel Hurt, president, and is located
In the triangle bounded by Edgewood
avenue, Exchange place and Ivy
street. II is seventeen stories high
and the cost 100000 The building
is located in the apex OF the triangle,
the base on Ivy street to be filed out
as soon as the present section is ten
anted Allowance has been made for
elevators, Railways and walls
The section has been constructed
so that the work on the other part
can go on without interference to
tenants who are located to the west.
Arcade Decided Feature.
One OF the distinctive features OF
the Hurt Building is Its circular ar
cade, which is located at the inter-
section OF Edgewood avenue and Ex-
change place and which constitutes
the main entrance TO the building
! This is two stories in height and is

HURT BUILDING
FREE FROM FIRE
THROUGH DOORS
Special Pyons Process in Opera
ten and Officials Feel Safe.
Asbestos For Safety.

A distinct feature OF the Hurt Build
ing win be its freproof qualities. Fires
tina. may occur can be stopped in the
room where they originate, without
passing to adjoining compartments.
This has been accomplished in the
installation Of fireproof doors, which
are made up in a unique way. The
heart Of the door is of ordinary wood
and on this is placed a strip OF thick
asbestos, and on top OF the asbestos
goes 8 strip Of wooden veneer. In
case Of IRE, the outer coating OF wood
burns and the fire stops at the ashes
tos. literally burning Itself out bus
with a minimum OF danger and loss.
Experiments on this door have
demonstrated tho usefulness Of the
device, and the Hurt Building officials
were satisfied with a test made be-
fcre the contract for the doors was
let The secret Of success in the de-
vice lies largely I'm the fact that oxy-
gen is excluded.
The concern which owns the patent
rights on this process Of making
doors Is the Pyrono Process Company.
o. Columbus, Ohio. and the manufac-
turer is the Alfred Struck Company
Of Louisville, Ky.
The Pyrono Process Company's
doors are also airproof. but are made
in such a way as to allow the escape
to oh iga
action In the ageing Of wood. The
basic principle Of freproofng,' say
the patentees, lis isolation, division,
separation, the protection Of things
beyond the immediate FIRE zone, ana
this principle finds its best expression
in the Pyrono products"
Other Pyrono products are parti-
lions. frames elevators. ceilings, PLATA
and panel wainscots and stairways.

The steel in the Hurt Building is
designed to withstand high wind and
earthquake disturbances. A solid base
and good connections make it prac-
tically impossible for cyclones and
seismic shocks ever to hurt the Hurt
Building, even though such disasters
should visit Atlanta.
There are 1900 to 2,4o0 tons OF steel
in the building. and some 5000 rivets
in each floor.
The foundation consists OF I'll piles

$3.50, 900 SUIT
BEFORE COURT
Action to Recover Two Acres or
Peachtree Street From Well
Known People.

OF more than ordinary interest in
the calendar of the Superior Court is
the suit brought to recover the old
Adams property on Peachtree street,
north of Pine. Attorneys for the de-
PENDANTS have filed a demurrer. ad-
uniting certain facts, but denying
there is ground for action. Should
the demurrer be overruled, the suit
will be tried on its merits, and a
warm legal battle is promised. II
the demurrer is sustained the de-
PENDANTS have won a victory, but the
plaintiffs will undoubtedly continue
the fight.
The property In question consists
Of two acres and IL worth probably
S25o.oOO. There is a frontage of 1856
feet on Peachtree, ending at the
southeast corner of Merritts avenue.
The corner lot at this point is 50 feet
on Peachtree and 140 feet on Merritts
avenue, with a substantial two-sto, "
frame dwelling.
Prominent People Involved.
South of this are shops used Cor
automobile purposes on a lot 81 by l4O
feet and south OF this is. the so by
SoS foot lot Of Mrs. Sarah D. Har-
ris, where the ]. o. Harris home
stood. South Of the Harris property
is the Peck home. "a by $50 feet
and on CORTLAND street is the place
Of Mrs. Martha Mitchell
w. F. Winecoff owns the two apart
ments and the 100 by 1855 foot lot at
the southwest corner Of CORTLAND
street and Merritts avenue. All Of
this property the plaintiffs seek t.
wrest from the present holders.
Several suits have been brought by
Westmoreland Brothers and ]. A. t&
]. M. Noyes in behalf OF E. F. Adams,
Florence A. Noyes, Mrs Leonora D.
Johnson and Thompson Marshall, a
minor, against Mrs. Charlotte Peck,
B. F. WHY, Jr.. Mrs. William Peck
Meador, and others. who are repre-
sented by Wimbish & Ellis.
Old Will Causes Contention.
The plaintiffs claim a cause of ac-
ton in certain provisions of a will,
which, 1t is claimed, have long been
disregarded In Transfers of the pror-
erty.
The plaintiffs are trying to recover
only one-half interest in the ]. w
Roberts property, which is south Of
w. ]. Morrison's, corner Of Peachtree
and Merritts, and one-fourth inter-
est in the Wtnecoff holdings because
OF quitclaims given some time ago,
but they are after the other parcels
as a whole.
Frontage in this neighborhood is
about $1,000 a foot for Peachtree
property, the price having risen from
1910 about eighteen months ago.
