there are several, and they are@alking Of

PROBABLY ANOTHER

Movement IS Started to Organize One

Capable Army officer Will Be Cap
tain Much Enthusiasm.

While Americas has already one of
the best military companies in Geor-
gia-weIl differed, we'll equipped and
we'll drilled, the prospect for organi-
cation of a second company here Is
quite fatterlpg. It was learned yes
terday that number Of young men
are quietly working to that end and
with such success that already they
have secured the promise of twenty
five men to enlist in the new company.
1t is said also that popular young
man, formerly in the service of Uncle
Sam, will be elected captain of the
company in the event of it's organiza-
ton. For many years the gallant
Light Infantry has been the pride of
Americas and will ever be, and some
think it would be the part of wisdom
TO concentrate every energy upon it
and make it even greater and stronger
rather than attempt-to organize anoth-
er company. However, it is argued
that Albany and other towns smaller
than Americas have two companies,
and that the friendly rivalry between
them keeps up interest in military af-
fairs. If the new company is organ
lzed we will wish it every success and
will contribute our part thereto.

IT sTAMPEDED THE MULTITUDE
Hundreds Went to Duncan's to Buy
Suits at $500.

There was no riot at Duncan's store
yesterday, though the throng of peo-
pie there indicated that something I'M
usual was going on inside. And
there was something most unusual,
for never in the history of Americ
had house offered its entire stock of
fine clothing some suits worth $12. so
SIS to $18-at the one price of SIS per
suit. But George Duncan did this
Sunday morning, and when the doors
were opened yesterday morning the
bargain seekers were there. 1t took
the entire force to wait upon the null
titude and during the day 1913 full
suits were sold at S. each. Of course
this slaughter sale cost Mr.. Duncan q
pretty penny, as some of the suits cost
him three times the selling price, but
he sticks to his proposition and will
sell out the balance of his clothing
stock, regardless of value, at So pei
suit. Go today, as these goods are go
ing with a rush.
