ton committee of majority stockhold-
ers at their figure of $685.

Secretary of State Phil Cook for a
| charter. That they legally might pur-
chase and conduct the business of an
| insurance company, organization with
a capital stock of at least 500, 600 was
necessary under the law. This amount
was specified In their application for a
charter, which was obtained In the

the old name only in It's inclusion of
the definite article the" in the title.

pany, are: NJ. NJ. RILEY, P B. Tram

wards.
| Glowing Promises of Success
The new concern Is launched with a
glowing promise of success, according
to the members of the reorganization
committee. In the office Of Insurance
| Commissioned William A. Wright, yes
| terday during the auction sale Of as
sets, several individuals in the body
voiced a promise to pay 60 cents on
the dollar to stockholders who desired
not TO enter the reorganization.
| According to the terms of sale. all
stockholders OF the old company who
care to enter the new company are al
lowed thirty days in which to signify
| In writing this intention. After that
the privilege of entrance will be denied
them, and they will be paid for the

figured out finally.
| The reorganization COMMITTEES Will
pay the sS54,000 which was bid in three
instalments. The first will be made
In forty days, the second and third in
thirty and sixty days after the first
payment. The first payment is to b.

Among the first of creditors to enter
claims against the assets were Mrs.
Ruth Claner, G. w. Barnett, Wesley
Camp Mrs. r. A. Gaines and L. II.
Jackson. beneficiaries, who through
their attorneys filed interventions to-
day, for sums varying from $3,250 20
! 81 900.
H. II. Dean, who represented the
minority stockholders of the company
in their unsuccessful bid for the assets,
was not in Atlanta today and his in
tentions in behalf of his clients could
not be ascertained. 1t is believed, how
ever from limitations cleaned from
speeches at the sale, that the minority
stockholders will be about equally di-
vided on the proposition Of selling their
holdings or entering the new company.
! j. o. Wynne, an expert, will have

A Fable

A tiger, prowling in forest, attracted by
bleating calf 1t proved to be bait and the tiger
found himself trapped in spring cage There he lay
for two days, when Brahmin happened that way.
ooh, Brahnin," piteously cried the beast "have
mercy upon me, and let me out of this cage"
"Ah but you will eat me-
Cat YOU Devour my benefactor! Never could
be guilty of such deed" responded the tiger.
The Brahmin being benevolently inclined
moved by these entreates and opened the door of the
cage.
The tiger walked up to him. waved his tail, and
said, "Brahmin, prepare to de- shall now eat YOU.
ooh, how ungratefu; how wicked! Am I not your
saviour" protested the trembling priest.
'True," said the tiger; "very true; but it is the
custom of my to eat when get the
chance, and l cannot affort to let you 60"
Let us submit the to arbitrator" replied
the Brahmin. "Here comes fox. The fox is wise
let abide by his judgment"
Very WE'LL" agreed the tiger.
The fox assuming judicial aspect, sat on his
launches with all dignity he could MASTER and looking
at the disputants said, GOOD friends am somewhat
confused at the different which you give of
this matter My mind is not clear enough to render
equitable Judgment but if you will be good enough
