GOVERNOR OBTAINS
TEMPORARY LOAN,
To Settle the Claims of School
Teachers.
SAID GEORGIA Is PROSPECTING.

The Outlook is Satisfactory

Great Trusts.

Gov. Gambler got back to Atlanta
yesterday after little junket to New
York, where he went to borrow $500,
900 with which to pay the county
school teachers. While there the Gov
ernor was probed with "a reportorial
gimlet, and spake at length.
He told the New Workers many IN
teresting things about Georgia.
Georgia is in better condition to-
day in every way than she has been for
o generation. There are contentment
and prosperity among all classes. The
last cotton crop was a good one, and
the planters and farmers are nearly all
out of debt. Manufacturing is spring
ing up all over the state, and many
cotton mills are being erected.
"While our coal and iron interests
are not so large as those of some other
states, it is not improbable they will
be absorbed by the trusts. That seems
to be the trend of events. .uass

up some claims of the state against the

lynchings in our state, and I have been

CUPID SPRINGS THIS SURPRISE.
Another Quiet Wedding Takes Place
Here.

Lee street was the scene of another
surprise marriage last evening, the
second happy event of the kind there
quite recently.
On this occasion the contracting
ones were Miss DAME Shepard and

of the BRIDES sister, Mrs. Taylor, with

The announcement will be surprise
to their many friends.
The engagement had been announc-
ed already, but it was not expected that
the marriage would take place so soon,
as Miss Shepard contemplated trip to
North Carolina first.
Yesterday, however, it was decided to
defer no longer the hour of their COM
plete happiness, and last evening, in
the presence of relatives and few
intimate friends them arriage rites were
solemnized by Rev. r. l.. BiYins, of
Furlow Lawn Church.
And rarely has Americas witnessed
prettier home wedding.
The BRIDE is one of the most beauti-
full and loyable young women here,
and reigned social favorite among a
host If friends. Mr.. Marshall is a
we'll known young pharmacist, and
during a residence of two years here
has taken a very high stand.
Hundreds of friends will unite in
wishing the handsome young couple

MADE TWO
LARGE VOLUMES,
That in Windsor Hotel Litigation
Completed.
NEARLY NINE HUNDRED PAGES
Stenographer Ansley Performed a
Great Task-His Work Consists Two
Hundred Thousand Words-Equal
to Hinkle Murder Case.

Two great volumes, covering more
than eight hundred typewriter pages
and consisting of two hundred thous-
and words, make up the voluminous
record in the case of the Americas
Manufacturing and Improvement Co.,
versus Charles A. Fricker.
The records of Sumter superior court
show only one case equaling it,
This evidence, neatly and substan-
italy bound in book form, was recelv-
ed from L. A. Morgan & Co., of this
city, yesterday, by the stenogrsper
who took it down-Mr. J. A. Ansley.
The case is that of the Americas
Manufacturing and Improvement Co.,
versus G. A. Fricker growing out of
the litigation oyer the Windsor Hotel.
All of this evidence was presented be-
fore Col, E. A. Hawkins, as special
auditor, who has yet to review the
same.
Should Auditor Hawkins complete
this task in time he will file his report
at the May term of court; otherwise at
the October term.
This record is the most voluminous
ever known here except that in the
first trial of the Hinkle case, which
eclipsed the hotel case considerably.
The evidence of Mr.. Fricker alone Gov
ers 200 pages, while that of others who
testified was almost as long.
Stenographer Ansley is quite proud
of his two volumes, especially as his
hard work will net him several hun
dred dollars.

SUCCESS AT POTATO GROWING

kept neatly pruned to a Van Dyke
point, Mr.. Lane essays to sprout pota
toes with equal success, He denies
the mild 1mputation that the ones ex-
hibited yesterday were the whole pota-
toes originally planted, canard origi-
mated by some political rival no doubt.
Mr., Lane looks more like farmer
every day, and is making rapid strides
