A WELCOME TO MISS CoGHLAN.
Extended By Theatre Goers Here Last
Night.

Despite the wretched weather last
evening On appreciatiye audience well
coined Miss Rose Coghlau at Glover
opera house aud witnessed one OF the
most delightful dramatic entertain.
ments ever accorded Americus by one
of her exalted reputation as q star.
The play, Forget Me-Not, is one in
which Miss Coghlan appears to best
advantage, as she certainly did upon
this occasion As Stephanie de Mo-
hrivart Miss Coghlan reused her audi
ence TO a pitch of enthusiasm which Is
ascribable only to her magnificent por-
travail of a heartless and desperate wo-
man. The supporting members OF the
company are artists OF we'll known
reputation. The costumes worn by
Miss Coghlan and those taking the
leading parts were gems of the mod
iste's art. Americas rarely sees such
splendid production as this, and
those who witnessed the play last even
ing were fortunate indeed.

CHRISTMAS TRADE rs INJURED.
BY Stormy Weather Such as That
Yesterday.

Americas merchants tore Yesterday
out of their business calendar, liter
ally, for 1t was almost equal to sunday
from a trade standpoint. The freez-
ing weather of Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday was bad enough, but when
to this was added Yesterdays contri-
button of sieet. Ice, rain, mud and mis-
cry the "dose" was considered too
drastic. Few people managed to reach
the city from the country, and town
people as a rule remained Eat home
rather than brave the elements to Sc
lect Christmas presents The presents
are on sale all right, carloads of them,
but the time is growing rapidly short
and the people cannot come to buy.
Practically the whole week preceding
Christmas has thus been lost.

DOCUMENT AN IMPORTANT ONE.
Presentments of Grand Jury Publish
ed Today.

In Times ecorder supplement this
morning appears the presentments of
the grand jury as made several days
ago. 1t is the longest paper ever made
by similar body, hence the delay in
getting ii ont. But while quite lengthy
it is, at the same time very important
document, covering as il does affairs
of the county not hitherto touched
upon. The grand jury recon mended
the publication of the presentments in
the Weekly Times-Recorder, but for
the benefit of city subscribers who are
alike interested in county affairs the
Times Recorder, at additional cost and
trouble, gives it to them today in e
form in which it may be preserved.

MANY STATED TO THE GUTTER.
Dozens Fall While Trying to Walk
the Steets.

Americus people were ice-bound yes
terday morning. The pavements were
sheets of sleet, and dozens of heels
went into the air as the owners.tried to
navigate from store TO store. Sand

one would measure his length upon
the sidewalk, and when the more dis
Greet walked IN the middle of the
street the corner loafer sang the re-
train when Reuben Comes to Town. :"

THEY ROBBED A BLIND BEGGAR.
Negroes Garry Him Into Alley and
Take Money.

Americus people will remember the
old blind man who sold song books on
the streets here two or three days ago.
The old fellow went from this city to
Macon where, as here, a negro boy led
him about the streets. At last he took
the blind man into an alley in rear of
the Brown House where he knocked
him down, took his money and es-
capped.
