ANXIOUS TO RETAIN "sHooFLY.
Train May Go Off In a Change Of
Schedule,

In the event that through night trains
are operated on this division of the
Seaboard it is barely possible that the
''Shoofly' operated between Amerlcus
and Ocilla may be taken off, though
nothing official TO this effect has been
given out. In fact, the proposed new
schedules have nos yet been arranged
and nothing of a definite nature is
known here, despite the many and per-
sistent rumors to the contrary. Agent
Everett said yesterday that he knew
nothing of the new schedules yet.
Americas would greatly regret to see
the Shoofiy taken off, as it is one of the
best trains entering the city, and the
hope is expressed that reports to this
effect are without foundation.

COTTON MARKET DOES BETTER.
Closes at the Highest Point in Sew
eral DAYS.

New life, seemingly, was infused
into the cotton market yesterday and
local "talent" was surprised at gain
of twenty five points over closing fig
ures of the day previous. Opening
with an advance of five points, the
market evidenced considerable strength
by the steady gain made during the
day. And now that the election ques-
tion is settled, it is believed here that
better prices will obtain for some time.
The mills have not vet laid in their
supply, and when they begin buying
cotton prices will advance with a rush.
People who have held on to their cot
ton are pretty apt to come out all right
yet,

PLAY Is CERTAIN TO PLEASE.
Endorsed By the Press and Clergy
Wherever Seen.

In presenting 'Ten Nights in Bar

pleasure in offering some evidence of
the universally of approval with which
it has been received by the press and
the public. Rarely has play been the
subject of so much favorable comment
in the home circle and seldom has one
shown such strong fascination for wo-

ceived such unequivocal endorsement
from the clergy. This excellent and
interesting play will be presented at
