ACROSS THE YEARS.

At my window, gazing
Dreamily away
Ger the land this misty
Late September day.
Yonder little village
Lies before my eye,
And its tall, sharp church spire
Seems to c.eaye the sky.
And far off beyond 1t,
On the horizon gray.
Loom the smOke-crOwned hill tons
Miles on miles away.
Distant voices reach me
An, once more | feel
Something half forgotten
DER my memory steal.
Twas a day Ia Summer,
Very long ago,
That | watched Il wagon
Moving toward me slow.
Down the long, white roadway,
Nearer still it drew
And | saw 4 dusty.
Tattcred coat of blue.
Saw the pallid visage,
As the vain passed By,
VI soldier wounded
Coming home to die.
Then | hear an echo
Steps that marching come
To the sound OF tOlling
And of mufiied drum.
Picture long forgotten.
Scarce recalled today
'TiS faded image.
Faint and far away.

AMERICUS WANTS
BRUNSWICK ROAD,
Meeting of Citizens Held Yesterday
Morning.
ADVANTAGES OF THIS SECTION
Will Be Strongly Presented TO New
Company and Hope Is Entertained
That Americas Will Be On Route
Success of Road Assured.

Americus is anxious to be on the
proposed Brunswick & Birmingham
Railway, and our citizens will put
forth every effort to induce it's build
ing in this direction.
Pursuant to the call of Mayor Eel
der, quite a number of representative
citizens met at the council chamber
Yesterday morning for the purpose of
discussing ways and means of secur-
ing this new enterprise. 1t was we'll
attended by prominent business and
professional men.
Mr., L. G.. Council, one of our lead
ing bankers and cotton factors, was
invited to preside as chairman.
Mayor Fielder stated the object of
the meeting and spoke strongly of the
advantages of Americas, both from a
commercial and geographical stand
pint, and expressed the belief that
the proposed new company would give
this due consideration in mapping out
it's route.
Americas is equi- distant from Bruins.
wick and Birmingham, and would be
divisional headquarters. Shops would
probably be located here, and benefit
derived therefrom.
Mr.. Thornton WUeGtIey and others
spoke upon the same line.
The secretary read letter from a
prominent citizen of Buena Vista, pro-
posing cooperation in securing this
project, and likewise a letter from
President Machen to Judge Bull, of
TaIbotton, setting forth the purposes
of his company and the desire for
hearty friendly aid.
A free right of way, few crOsstles
and general good will, Col. Machen
said. would be worth more now than
would the placing of thousand Of tho
bonds at later date.
Upon motion, committee of seven,
consisting of Chairman l.. G. Coun-
Gil, Mayor Fielder, Crawford Wheat
ley, J. w. Furlow, Thomas Harold,
Judge Fort and James J. Hanesley,
was appointed with plenary power to
take such action in the premises as
was deemed advisable.
THIS committee will meet at the
Painters Bank at $50 o'clock this
morning.
Americas is going to make strong
pull to secure the road, aud with ali
her commercial and natural advantage
es has every hope of success. The
building of the line here would be to
the mutual advantage of the city and
company, which fact is duly appre-
ciated.
The road is going to be built, and
Americas should secure it.

who may succeed Mr. E. ST. John as
vice president and general manager of
the Seaboard Air Line. Railway men

sition, but none can say what Presi-
