SUCCESS OF FARMERS JUBILEE
Seems Assured, and Great Crowds
Will Come Here.

The committee having in charge the
Farmers Jubilee" to take place in
Americas during the second week in
November is meeting with marked
success and great occasion is prom
Used the thousands of visitors who
will come to Americas. The idea ad-
Yanced that the Jubilee is in anywise
similar to the street carnival here last
December IS an erroneous one. It is
to be more of county fair, in which
exhibits of agricultural products and
live stock will be the leading features,
though there will be hundreds of
amusements and the better side at
fractions of fair. The committee has
been assured that not an Objectionable
feature is to be presented upon this
occasion. It is one that will bring
crowds of visitors here, and in the en-
tertainment furnished each one will
get his moneys worth. Americas
needs to get out of the rut in which it
is stagnatlng, and the best.way to &C.
complish this end, it seems, is to bring
people and business here.

Thousands Along the Line See the
Splendid Show.

Did you see the big circus parade
Yesterday? If not, your vision was
badly impaired. Seemingly a ''blue
million of people iammed the streets
as it passed along, The schools had a
holiday, and hundreds of the little
folks were on hand to welcome the
elephant and the 'sweet singing" CAL
Hope. The crack of the peanut pune
tuated the din of the excited children,
while the old folks rubbered with the
rest to see all that was going, The
cages were in large majority open,
so the people saw the wild beasts to
their hearts content, The lion, the
tiger, the leopard and the rest of the
descendants of the passengers on
Noah's excursion were on free exhibi-
tion.

BLOTTED OUT SCARLET FEVER
Americas Is Free Of The Red Plague
at Last,

"You may say that there is not o
known case of scarlet fever in Ameri-
Gus" said City Physician Hudson yes
tsrday, "and unless case is brought
in from the country, or other town,
hope that the city is now entirely free
of the disease"
With the exception of one case of
diphtheris, DR.. Hudson said, there is
not case of contagious disease of any
kind here.
This statement of the city physician
is indeed gratifying. For nearly q
year the red plague, scarlet fever, has
existed here, and the fact that there is
not case known to the authorities
shows how effective are the measures
taken to stamp it out.
The disease may appear again in
isolated cases, but there is satisfaction
in knowing that there is none of it
here now.

TRAINS BROUGHT A MULTITUDE
Thousands Come By Every Road to
See Show.

If there was any doubt about the
size of the circus crowd yesterday, and
there was none, it was quickly dis
PEELED when the morning trains cam q
in. The Centraltrain arriving at is
and 6.12 brought their quota, as did
the Columbus train at II a. m. and the
Central's noon trains. But the star
crowd came by the Seaboard's train
arriving at 10 o'clock. At least a
thousand passengers came on this
train alone, and Jackson street was a
sea of folks from the Windsor Hotel
to the depot, Every town along the
line from Fitzgerald to Americas was
largely represented, and everybody
bought goods of our merchants and
went to the circus.
