Capture of Murderer-The Political
situatiOn-Sundry Notes.

Americas, Ga, March is. Monroe Rob
iuson, who killed Harper Washington
here several weeks ago and Immediately
fed the state, has been captured at De-
Land. Fla. The sheriff of this county left
to-day for DeLand and viii bring Robin
son back to Americas. From statements
made by Washington the sho ting was I'M
provoked, and evidently piece of pleas
antry upon the part Of Robinson,
The Allen House. one of the leading no.
tells in Southwestern Georgia and which
has been closed for repairs for a year, will
be re-opened at an early date.
Candidates for county office are coming
to the front in large numbers. There are
three or four aspirants for every office,
from sheriff to coroner, and the campaign
viii be lively. Most interest is centered in
the sheriff's race, the candidates for that
office being E. L. Bell, w. w. Hooks and
Albert Brady. Capt. John A. Cobb will
be a candidate for ordinary, against
Judge A. G. Speer.
Messrs. W. T. Lane and E. c, Speer,
who represented Sumter county in the
lower house Of the last general assembly
are candidates for reelection, though
there will he others.
The recent action of the local Demo-
cratic Club in heartily indorsing Judge Al
len Fort for Congress, may weigh with
him in determining the ques ton of en-
tering the race against Hon. e. B. Lewis.
Judge Fort has stated that he would re-
ply shortly to the resolutions adopted by
The club, urging his candidacy. and should
he then decide to enter the race the cap-
paign will be one of the hottest ever viii
messed in the Third district Judge Fort
has hundreds of friends over the district
who would be glad to support him for
Congress, should he run.
The San Jose scale, il is said has at
tackled some of the large peach orchards
near Americas.
Twenty-Five carloads of cotton from
points along the Central Railroad were
brought to Americas to-day to be com
pressed for shipment to Savannah. Amer
icus cotton receipts, in the aggregate,
will rot fall short of last seasons re-
ceipts, when approximately $4,000 bales
went through the compress here, ship
ments coming from points all over South
Georgia and Alabama. The compress
company declines to state the number of
bales handled this season, but it will be
very large.

GENIUS UNAPPRECIATED.
DIR. Conan DOyle's Invention Not Ac-
copied by the War Office.
From the New York Times


Like a good many other Britishers. Dr.
Conan Doyle has had his attention called
in very emphatic manner of late to the
fact that. while rifle fire is extremely eff
fective when directed by an intrenched
force against soldiers standing or ad-
Vancing on open ground, it is practically
useless when turned against a protected
foe. completely invisible most of the time
and only partially visible at the moment
of pulling the trigger. But DR.. DOYLE. I'M
like the majority of those who have pom
dered on this phenomenon was not con
tent to mourn it as an irremediable conse-
quence OF the nature of things only TO be
ignored by desperate valor or circumvent-
ed by strategical skill. Instead he brought
to bear upon this problem the ingenuity
he had so often placed az the service Of
sherlock Holmes. There is" he reflected.
"one side upon which the man in trench
or behind a rock is vulnerable and that
side is from above" Instantly it dawned-
the great idea. .he clue. fiat trajectory
is an excellent Thing for some purposes.
but not when the straight line from the
shooter TO the to-be-shot passes through a
body impeuetrable by bullets In such
cases the bowmen of old sent their arrow :
high in air and trusted gravity to do the
rest. Then DIR. Doyle figured out that
100000 bullets, falling on kopje 1,OO by
lOO yards in extent, would free il of de-
tenders. Next he devised a simp,e At
tachment for the ordinary rifle to indicat q
the angle at which the weapon should be
held to drop a bullet at given range. and
lastly he wrote to the British war office
telling them all about his invention and
offering TO let them have it, The only re-
ply he received was a curtly courteous
declination to put him to any further
trouble in the matter! In a letter to The
London Times DR.. Doyle makes it clear
that he thinks the war office an inappra.
ciative and unprOgressive institution. mucb
in need of reform. In this opinion several
of the other London papers seem to agree
with him, and one of them not only SAYS
that the episode proves the ''pachyderma-
tous' character of the war office officials
but declares that were the doctor not too
patriotic to sell his invention to foreigners
he could be sure of a fortune from either
Germany or France

cence The Berlin Opera House which he
maintains, is not for his personal pleas

the $475O00 which the Emperor gives to II

To support his long list of pensioners the

The wonder at how the Emperor spends
so much money soon disappears when one
comes to consider few of his personal
extravagances. He feeds, clothes and pays
wages to /, 800 lackeys all the year around.
These are distributed all over his empire
at his twentyfour palaces. All of these
