WATER F AMIN T
THREATENS As
PUMP FAILS
Breaking of AtIanta's Biggest
Machine Forces Double Work
on Smaller Ones.

Fast work by employees of the the
City Waterworks Department is all
that stands between Atlanta and a
water shortage. The $4,000, 0O0-g gallon
pump at the river station broke down
Tuesday, leaving only 100000
pumping capacity. This is the daily
demand of the city. Should one of
the smaller pumps break-and one Of
them has collapsed several times dur
ing the past year-Atlanta's only sal
walton from a water famine would be
the 100000 900 gallons stored up ir
the reservoirs at the Hemphill sta
ton.
The broken pump is the Frank P
Rice, which has given considerable
trouble. one Of the cylinder heads
cracked, and anticipating break q
new cylinder was ordered. Tuesday
the cylinder head fell apart.
Mayor Woodward and Zode Smith
general manager of the waterworks
went out to look over the plant Tues
day.

the 100000 policies in the Penn Mu-
tual Life Insurance Company as was
reported from Jacksonville, accord
ing to the current issue OF The In

This paper says:
"A usually authoritative source OF
Information last week caused us to
carry an item to the effect that the
Penn Mutual had paid the entire
claim Of about 100000 of the estate
of f, o, Painter, Of Jacksonville, who
Is generally believed to have commit

1T appears at this time, however
that this was an error and that the
Penn Mutual merely paid few thou
3 sands Of insurance taken out more
than year ago and returned about
SL7OO that had been paid in premiums
on the new policies"
Painter had three policies with the
Penn Mutual, only one Of which had
been taken out previous 10 this year.
when he piled up about $1,000, 900 of
new insurance. That one old policy
was for but $4,000, the other two. is
sued this year, being respectively for
$4,000 and $4,000. evening I'D the
total to 100000.
The $4,000 policy was issued No
vember II, 1911, payable to Martha S
Painter, his wife. The one for $50
900 was issued February "a. 1918
payable also 10 Mrs. Painter. The
other policy, for $4,000, was issued
April IS, 1913, and was payable to
his estate.
No Other Company Settled.
The dates of these policies would
indicate, according to the Insurance
Herald's article that only the $4,000
policy was paid and the cash, mates
and cash value Of stock in the e. 0.

payment OF premiums, were returned
10 his estate.
No other company has made a set

far as known, and indications are
that none will be until litigation that
has been Instituted by the Fidelity and
Guaranty Company at Baltimore over
the custody of Painters viscera is de-
cided That case is set for a hearing
on July Is.
An important development in the
Painter case took place at Jackson

.OH, LOOK WHO'S HERE"

It is not often that the theatre pat rone of Elks Theatre are given the op- portunity to witness such a realistic portrayal of female impersonation as will be afforded them on Monday when Hal Johnson will appear at the Elks there in the big musical comedy production, "Oh, lock who's here" For the past four years he has devoted his time exclusively to productions play ing on Broadway and has scored one continuous string of successes. He is so distinctly different from other art ists in his line that his work is re- freshing. His manager, Ralton Powell has provided him with medium that presents ample opportunities for his varied accomplishments. The piece is excellently staged, both chorus and principals handsomely costumed and may be safely announced as one of the best attractions of it's kind on the road.
