Germania Elects Officers.

The Germania Verein held it's AN.
nual meeting for the election Of officers
on wednesday evening. Mr.. B. Bro
dersen was elected President. Hnoo
Gebert. Vice President, C. J. Solomon
Treasurer, B. j Sibbert Secretary and
Manager: an executive committee con-
sisting of DR.. F. Mueller, F. Faul and
ID. II. klinker was also elected. The
affairs of the society are in good con-
dltlon and it is hoped that before many
years the opera house may be freed
from debt. Manager Sibbert has done
good work and is making the opera
house popular by getting high grade
attractions, so that this promises to be
the best theatre season Denison has
ever had. 1t was decided at the meet
ing that the Verein should give a ball
on the evening of Thanksgiving day.
The board OF supervisors is wrestling
with the bridge contract today. There
are seven bidders in the field repre-
senting some of the biggest bridge con-
Germs in America. The American
Bridge Co. which is the greatest cor
poration of the kind on earth, is repre-
sented and is one of the lowest bidders.
The Standard Bridge Co. of Omaha is
the lowest bidder on the face of things
and Mr.. Hermann Grill is the highest
bidder. At this writing we do not
know what action the board will take.
While we have nothing against Mr..
Grill itwould seem that the board could
not afford to change the oyerseer of
the poor farm because he was under
bid by the amount of seventeen dollars
and then give bridge contract to the
highest bidder when it would make a
probable difference of ten thousand
dollars to the county in the two year
period if it were done. We believe the
board TO be possessed of sufficient good
business Judgment TO do the fair thing
in this matter

ANOTHER BIG WASHOUT.

Big Hole Again Made In Spring Street,
 West Haven-Is Being Repaired.
 Spring street, West Haven, near the Oak Grove cemetery, is again giving the authorities of the borough trouble. At different times after heavy rains the roadway just back of the cemetery washes away and leaves great holes along the side of the road, that are not only dangerous but also a considerable expense. About three months ago the cemetery directors built a wall along the place where the washouts occur and it was expected that this would fix mat ters. A few days ago, however, the same thing happened and this time the wall was completely carried away, Street Inspector Lewis is having a squad OF men fix the road again and this time it is thought that the ele- ments will have no effect on the spot.

nels of the money market will be safe- ly tided over. The trans continental and grain carrying roads especially St. Paul and Union Pacific, were effective leaders in the advance. The announce ment of the cut in copper, while it drove the shorts to cover in that stock and rallied it effectually, caused 8 sharp reaction in the general market. The bears centered their attack on Manhattan, forcing it 1-2 under the best. The high priced coalers and a number of specialties, especially the cotton oil stocks, Western Union, Pa cific Mail Colorado Fuel and the Dis tilling stocks showed notable strength.

Firm Clost- t-tn,aignmntsd Copper Takes
 Flight.

New York Dec 1S.--The principal ef- | fort of operators in stocks to-day con
 tinued to be to solve the enigma of the
 copper question. The cratic nuctua- !, tions of Amalgamated Copper reflected 1 the uncertainty of mind OF the profess sional operators in this stock. who largely monopolized the dealings. Of actual developments the additional cut 1 in the prices of raw copper was the feature of the day.
 The weakness yesterday in Amalga-
 mated which continued this morning.
 was due to the assumption that there
 would be further declines in the price
 of the company's product. The rally
 of 1 1-2 points in the price of the stock
 after the reduction of selling prices by
 the United Metals Selling company in-
 dicated that yesterdays selling was by
 professional bears and was overdone.
 The fact that the former difference be-
 tween the price of Lake Superior and Electrolytic copper was narrowed by to-day's changes was taken as an indi- cation of an adjustment of differences of opinion between the controlling in- terests in Amalgamated Copper and Calumet and Hecla, as it has been sup posed that the latter interests main- tained that Amalgamated had an undue advantage from the relative cheapness of Electrolytic copper. The lowering of prices by the dominant powers in the trade is believed to have cut off the margin of profit on production of many of the minor producers, thus foreshad- owing a decline in production. The bear contingent in these securities were also apprehensive that the bottom point had been reached. Amalgamated clos ed at the top price, three points above last night and six points above the low record price. Further selling of Stan dard Oil in the outside market at as low as $50 was attributed to sympathy with the weakness in Amalgamated Copper. The general market showed a disposition to ignore the early weak ness in Amalgamated Copper. The mo- tive for the underlying strength in the market was the easier tone in the market, call loans ruling for the most part at per cent.

hold her own with the best of those who Were to the Anglo Saxon manor born. One cared, however. for none of these
 things after the sermon had begun,
 when one could look up and see in the
 most historic pulpit of England one of the Canons of the English church. With his shining and aescetic face so palpably overspread by the light and love of Christian charity that would make all followers of the Lowly One his brethren, regardless of creed and church polity. The sermon itself one need not report It was the scene, the place, the man, the theme, that made the utterances of paramount interest. He was preaching that day against "Proselytising," against putting church creeds and forms and ordinances into the front place, making these things tests of discipleship and of the true church, rather than Christ's command to follow Him. Most outspoken was he in the view that the Church of Eng land ought to come down from her high horse of spiritual exclusiveness. h. stead of trying to make prosedytes from other denominations, she should acknowledge that those denominations were as really part of the true church as she herself is.
 Upon leaving the abbey three ladies were overheard lauding the sermon. It was just splendid" was the conclusive remark of the oldest of the three. One is never averse to falling in with his own countrymen when abroad especial ly if they happen to be agreeably-look- ing women So I remarked to this trio You are Americans, I see" Why, how did you know?" Because over heard you say the sermon was just splendid And l might have added that I could have told them afterwards by the fact that they prefaced their question with, Why" An English wo- man would say, in a similar case, Par don me, sir, but how did you know" These ladies from across the pond wanted to know what that big building was across the way. It just happened to be the Houses of Parliament. They had been in London four days. yet had not found out this spot before. Some do the whole of London in | less time than that, but not, dear read | CT, when the whole of London Is envel- | oped day after day and night after | night in a black fog.

CANT RISE AS RACE
TO LEVEL OF WHITES.
Gov. Gambler Gives His Opinion Upon
the Negro.
EDUCATION IS MOST NEEDED.
That of Moral Nature, Thinks the
GovernOr-He Makes Terse Reply to
Query Sent Him BY the New York
Journal.

Atlanta, Nov. 2-In reply to tele-
gram from the New York Journal, ask
ing his views on the result of the edu-
cation of the negro, and whether the
negro, as q race, could ever be elevated
to the level of the white man. Gov.
Gambler replied as follows:
Rational education benefits any
people of whatever race. What the ne.
gro needs most is moral education.
The states In which he lives are pro.
viding reasonably we'll for education in
the best books.
Washington is doing good work for
his race, but he cannot lead them up as
a race to the level of the white man.
The white man is the highest type OF
the human family; the negro Ia the
lowest. God has made no other race
equal to the Caucasian and education
cannot do that which God has failed to
do.
Individual members of the negro
race will rise to the level of the white
race, but the race as whole never will
''The receiving of Washington by the
President, on terms of social equality,
will not affect the question in any way.
If sensational newspapers had not made
so much ado about it, nobody would
have thought or cared anything about
it.

HAD ROLL OF BILLS
TO SHOW FOR CROP
Sumter Farmer Shows Wad of Six
Thousand Dollars.
MANY PLANTERS NOW SELLING
Fearing the Market May Go Lower,
They Sell at Prevailing Prices
Rather Than Take the Chances Re
ceipts Continue Large.

With bank check for six thousand
dollars, which represented the value of
more than two hundred bales Of his
cotton, a prosperous Sumter county
planter in Americus Yesterday felt
much more at ease than while his bales
remain stored in the warehouse.
He is now better able to stand fur
ther decline of prices,
1t is greatly to be hoped that there
will be no further fall in prices, but to
be prepared for such contingency
many farmers here sold their cotton
the past week.
For more than two weeks the market
has been steadily declining, losing a
full cent per pound from the highest
level reached. Not afew farmers here,
thinking the price would go higher, re-
fused to sell at 7ac or better, and pre-
pared for long seige.
Seven cents was the full limit paid
in Americus yesterday.
Some are inclined to believe that the
bottom has been reached in the long
slump, and that rally Is about due.
Even some of the New York "talent'
talk about 10 cent and 10 cent cotton
before the end of the season. It is to
be hoped they are right.
In the meantime the farmers here
many of them-are taking 81 and +
cents for theirs right along.

Hundreds Here Saw Mountebank Last

Never has more appreciative audi

opera house than that which greeted
the eminent actor, Mr.. Frederick
Warde, last evening. Much was ex-
pected of this splendid company, pre-
senting "The Mountebank" and the
deep interest aroused and applause
given the players evidenced the fact
that all were delighted. The play was
well staged, while the magnificent cos
tunes elected the greatest admiration
AS Belphrego, the Mountebank, Mr..
Warde was perfection personified,
while as much might be said of Miss
Warde, Miss Ashton and Miss Prescott.
The play is full of clean comedy, deep
and delicate pathos and situations OF
great intensity. Mr., Warde is seen at
his very best in the role of Belphregor,
and scored hit last night which will
render his visit to Americus one long
to be remembered.

The Times-Recorder a week ago
told of the capture of three moonshine
distilleries in Sumter county, west of
Americus. At that time none of the
parties suspected of any connection
with the moonshlne business were ar

done. Deputy marshals came here
yesterday morning and nabbed white
man and negro, carrying the pair to
Macon for trial before the United

larger stills are being run on full time

whiskey by wholesale. If this be true
other arrests will follow as the officers
