THE GUESTS WERE DISTURBED.
By Uproar In The Windsor Hotel
Yesterday.

A crowd of rowdies and toughs,
some belonging to the "creme della
creme" of Americas society, aided by
several outside bummers who have
only their shapes and voices to recon-
mend them, took possession of the
elegant parlor of the Hotel Windsor
Tuesday night, and long after mid
night hours made morning hideous
with noises which would put to shame
the most unsavory eden" on Coney
Island. This riotous, drunken revel-
ry continued until past 3 o'clock yes
terday morning. Such conduct, with :
out interruption, would not be toler-
aEed even in the tenderloin districts of
Chicago, and it behooves the city au-
thorities of Americus to bring to JUS
tice such miscreants and thus protect
guests of hotels against such indigni-
ties in future. It is but just to state
that Mr.. Henry McCleskey, proprietor
of the hotel, was out of the city, and il
is but poor return for his uniform
courtesy and kindness to his guests
that few of them should join with 1
lot of aliens and seek to disgrace the
popular Hotel Windsor.

AMERICUS WOULD
Be CONSIDERED
In Selection of Encampment Site This
Year.
COL. wooTEN FOR ENCAMPMENl
Anxious That His Regiment, the
Fourth Georgia, Should Have One
Week in Camps Americas Has Ex
cellent Grounds Therefor.

The Fourth Georgia Regiment, to
which the Americas Light Infantry is
attached, NAV spend week in camps
this summer, and it is by no means i'm
probable that thiswhite cityof tents may
be builded at Camp Gilman here, one
of the prettiest of spots for an encamp-
ment to be found in Georgia or the
South,
IF the Regiment goes into camp
Americas will invite it here.
Colonel Wooten, who commands the
Fourth, is anxious that his regiment
should have at least weeks encamp-
ment, and has already discussed the
matter at length.
A day or two ago he called upon Adj
jutant General Robertson in regard
thereto. No provision was made by
the legislature for any encampment
of the troops this year, and should the
Fourth decide to go for an outing the
men will stand the expense.
However, Col. Wooten will endeavor
to get the state to afford all the assis-
lance possible on this line.
Col. Wooten is anxious that the en-
campment be held at some central
point within the district in which his
men reside. Upon this line he is quot
ed as follows
81 want my men to go into camp at
some point within the district within
which they Iive," Col. Wooten said
''It will be cheaper for the officers and
men, and then it will be of some small
benefit at least to whatever section in
the district that is selected for the camp.
''We are going to have the encamp.
ment if it is possible for us to do so. >
Americas is about the centre of the
district in which the Fourth Regiment
is stationed, and is convenient, of ac-
cess from any point.
The companies making up the regi
ment are those ofColumbus, Cuthbert
Fort Gaines, Dawson, Albany, Thorn.
asville, Perry, Valdosta, Fitzgerald and
Americas. Our advantage as conve
nient central point for these cities IL
quite apparent to all.
The officers of the Fourth discussed
among themselves last year such al
encampment as Colonel Wooten sug
gests, and it met with greatest favor
Americas would certainly welcome
the encampment, and our city would
entertain the visiting soldiery right
royalty. If the encampment is order
ed our citizens and the Light Infantry
will work hard to bring it to Camp
Gilman,
A thousand troops here in midsum
mer would enliven the situation con
siderablY-d you think?

SCHOOLS TO HAVE EXERCISES.
In Memory of Oglethorpe and Mar
shall

State School Commissioner Glenn
has sent out letters to all the county
school commissioners suggesting ap-
propriate exercises in all the schools
on February 4th, the Tooth anniversary
of Chief Justice MarshalI's accession
to the supreme court, and on Febru-
airy 18th, which is Oglethorpe day.
Commissioner Glenn suggests that
each teacher take an hour on each of
these days for the purpose of instruct
ing the pupils as to the history of the
men whom the days are set apart to
celebrate.

FOUR DEALERS IN CIGARETTES,
Register With Ordinary As Required
By Law.

Where formerly a score of Americas
merchants sold the aromatic" cigar
cite, the number this year is reduced
to four only. The state law requires
that every cigarette dealer register
with the ordinary and pay a special
license tax of $40. A glance at the
registry in Judge Aliens office yester-
day showed that but four dealers in
cigarettes and alcohol has registered
so far and paid the license. One deal
er in pistols had registered, as also re-
quired, while the proprietors of two
billiard halls had left their autographs
on the page. There are several other
lines of business wherein the proprie-
tors are also required to register with
the ordinary.

Persons who suffer from indigestion

they cannot eat the food required to
nourish the body and the products of
the undigested foods they do eat poison

best method of doing this is to use the

SEABOARD BRIDGE
ACROSS SAVANNAH.
Company May Connect Island With
City.
BRIDGE WOULD COST 100000.
Company Has Hallway Bridge AL
ready, and Building of a Wagon
Bridge Would Greatly Facilitate
Handling of Freight,

The Seaboard Air Line Railway may
shortly build a magnificent steel
bridge, costing 800, 900, at Savannah,
connecting the island terminals with
the city and thus greatly facilitating
the handling of freight. The company
has an iron bridge, two miles up the
river, but what is greatly needed is a
wagon bridge connecting Hutchin-
sons Island with the business centre
of the city. At present all freight
shipments from Savannah are sent
across the river in lighters, and at con-
siderable cost. 1t is believed in well
informed quarters that the Seaboard
will build this second steel bridge
across the Savannah river at an early
date.
