PEACE is IN SIGHT
A Question Of Authority between
Viceroy Ii Hung Chang and
Prince Ching.
READY TO MAKE SACRIFICES
China Is Willing to Meet Any Kind Of
Terms in Order to Re-establish Peace
Prince Ching Gives His
Opinion.

Pekin, September 5th.-Prince Chins
arrived here yesterday accompanied b!
an escort of British and Japanes,
cavalry. No definite negotiations will
take place until Ii Hung Chang arrives

nave been disposed 'of. The Japanes,

he wished an investigation made of l.
Hung Chang's credentials, and sale
that he believed Prince Ching was the
only man with authority in the premises
The Associated Press representative
saw Prince Ching today. The prince
said he trusted that in the immediate
future everything would be settled salts.
factorily. He thought the treatment OF
Pekin unnecessarily cruel, especially as
regards to private property. He had
come to Pekin, he said, with full
authority from the emperor to obtain
peace by any necessary sacrifice but felt
sure the generosity of the powers would
not exact anything degrading to the
dignity of China or encroaching upon
Chinese territory, and hoped within a
month to see the harvest gathered and
homes being rebuilt. Prince Ching
thinks great blow has been given
Chinese commerce, but does not believe
the loss to the city is irreparable for a
more magnificent one may arise from
its ashes.

(Taken from the Musical Courier, New
York, Of July IA, l9O0.)
Clifford Chickerlng will soon publish
pamphlet, the purpose Of which will be
to show his lineal descent from the
original founder Of the famous piano
which bears the name. Whether Mr..
Chickering's claim to the right to use
the name upon his pianos is we'll
grounded or not, 1t Is absolutely true
that he has no right to do 80 upon the
mediocre products Of North Side
factory of stencil proclivities. Nor will
IL be right for Clif Chlckering to set up
the claim that he is "the only man who
can draw Chickering SCALE" He says
that such q pretension will be made In
bis forthcoming book. It will be q
foolish thing to do. The "only Chicken
Ing scale" was drawn long ago, and has
been perpetuated through the years.
There are fables Of Aesop which seem
to fit Mr.. Clifford's case. Let him study
them and leave bookmaking to others,
and catalogue writing to real manu-
facturers.

Lord Roberts says: 'Kruger has fled to
Lorenzo Marques, and Botha has been
obliged to give over the command of the
Boer army temporarily to Viljoen on ac-
count of Ill health. In consequence
Roberts issued proclamation saying:
"Kruger's action shows how hopeless in
his opinion is the war which now has
been carried on nearly year, and his
desertion of the Boer cause should make
clear to his fellow burghers that it is
useless to continue the struggle any
longer"

Chickering Bros. piano is legitimate in
one sense and fairly well made piano
it is no more to be compared with the

NEARLY 500 NAMES
VOTERS ON LIST.
Are Registering Fast For Primary
Election.
MUCH INTEREST IS MANIFESTED
Candidates Are at Work and Others
Will Announce Registration Books
Will Close ShortlY-Number Voters
Will Be Increased.

Up to last night nearly FIVE hundred
democratic voters had registered for
the city primary, and it is not improb-
able that the total will reach seven
hundred before the books are finally
closed. Nearly hundred names went
on the list yesterday.
Voters have several days yet in
which to register, but the sooner you
see to it that you are qualified voter,
the better it will be.
Qualifications: to vote in the pri-
mary next Thursday one must have re-
sided six months in the city, be a
democrat, and have paid all taxes up
to and including last year. This
years taxes are not due and, therefore,
need not be paid at this time.
Go this morning and see if your name
is on the registration list.
The campaign grows in interest as
election day draws nigh and little else
is discussed upon the streets. This
interest will not abate bit until the
result is known.
There were few new features in the
campaign yesterday. The three can
didates for mayor and several asp1r-
ants for aldermanic honors Put in lot
of good work canvassing among the
unterrifed. The average voter now
feels his importance, sure.
A nice little bunch of new alderman
ic entries tomorrow morning would
not erwhelm knowing ones with sur
prise.

The New Orleans Times-D smocrat
in recent issue, has this to say about
one of Atlanta's distinguished business
men:
''The man who fitted Gen. Fitzhugh
Lee, present consul general to Cuba,
the man who fitted ex-Presldent
Grover Cleveland, and the man who
made Gen. John B. Gordon see anew,
and the man who has assisted the nat
uraI eyesight of more than score of
our leading national characters of the
last decade, is row guest of the st.
Charles Hotel. Mr.. Hawkes., of Allan
ia, is one of the most noted opticians
of the century.
To suit the eye is one thing, but to
fit the nose and get spring and a
clamp that will hold the lenses and at
the same time not pinch the delicate
member of the face is one of the arts
that few opticians acquire.
Date of Mr.. Hawkes. visit in Ameri-
Gus will be some time in December.

December 1st is the date now fixed
for the establishment of the rural mail

December 1st Regarding the matter
of private mail boxes at farm houses or
road crossings, the rules prescribes
that these must be stout and durable,
protecting the mail from the weather
or from thieves. Unless such boxes
are provided he will not leave mail
there. Any one can make his own
mail box, the Department insisting
only that it shall be strong and dur
able. In few days the long desired
service will be fully established.

kilograms of Inquiry Sent South
Yesterday.
ANXIOUS TO ASCERTAIN STOCK

Gus Reported 1900 Bales Held and
Nothing Less Than Ten Cents viii
Move It From Storage Rooms.

Under the belief that Southern ware
houses are rammed and jammed with
cotton, which the farmers are holding
for ten or twelve cents, the buying ele-
ment North sent out kilograms of in
quiry yesterday to all points in the
cotton belt, asking information as to
the amount of cotton stored. Several
of these kilograms were received in
Americus, and the information desired
was cheerfnlly given, The stocks In
the warehouses here will aggregate
perhaps 4, 900 bales and it will take ten
cents to get any considerable portion
of 1T. The number of farmers willing
to sell for less have turned loose their
cotton, and spinners are now up
against a contingent that is prepared to
hold out indefinitely or else get the
value of their cotton. The market
fuctuated but little yesterday, closing
nine points below the opening figure.

AMERICUs GETS EIGHTH PLACE.
Takes Higher Rank Among the
Georgia Cities.

According to the census figures just
given out, Americas is the eighth city
in Georgia in point of population
while in other respects, probably. she
takes even higher stand. OF course
Atlanta comes at the top of the list,
followed in the order named by Savan-
nah, Augusta, Macon, Columbus,
Athens, Brunswick and Americus
We beat both Rome and Griffin, de-
spite the fact that these cities hereto
fore have claimed larger population
than Americas Upon the whole, our
citizens are very well satisfied with
the evidence of the city's growth dur
ing the decade, though we would be
glad to haye been credited with 5000
population, which would have been
just and right.

RETAINS RANK AS A COLONEL.
O'Bear Will Not Be Made Brigadier
Now

Col w. G. O'Bear will not be brig
adler general, but will continue with
his present rank as inspector general
of the state militia. The bill to make
him brigadier met with such strong
opposition that his friends thought it
wiser to have the measure Withdrawn.
The bill to make Col. O'Bear a briga-
der general was introduced as re-
ward for his active services IN the
militia both in peace and times when
the Georgia troops had to be organ
lied for service in the war against
Spain. Col. O'Bear did excellent work
in getting the Georgia soldiers into

DEMAND FOR LAND INCREASES
Sumter Will Be a Garden Spot Next
~ year, -

The hills and Wales OF Sumter will
blossom next year as never before, and
there will not be an acre of available
land uncultivated. The SUCCESS at
tanned this year in raising wheat has
stimulated the cultivation of that great
money crop, and larger acreage is
now being planted here. Bigger crops
of oats and rye have likewise been
planted in Sumter. King Cotton will
not be neglected next year, and while
good prices have obtained this fall our
farmers are not going "cotton crazy
and plant the whole earth in it, by any
means. AS much or more may be
planted as this year, but other crops
will also receive attention. In the
meanwhile there is an increased de-
mand here for farm lands, and every
little farm offered finds ready buyer
at the best price paid for land in
many years.

the bear element there that nothing
more could be expected of the top crop.
1t had the desired effect and the mar
ket has since advanced nearly quar-

state that these frozen cotton bolls
were grown near Americus, and that
millions more like them, rotten and
