Dick croker's Boys Have to Leave Col
jeae-Pestered Night and Day.
New York, Oct. 16.-Richard Croker,
Jr., and his brother. Herbert Croker.
the sons Of Richard Croker, have left
Cornell University, which they entered
at the beginning of the scholastic year.
and have returned to this city. Accord
ing to their friends they were compelled
tc leave the university because of an-
noyances to which they were subjected.
When the Croker boys went to Cor
nell it was reported in some OF the
newspapers that they had taken with
them their two prize English bulldogs,
Bromley Crib valued at $4,000, and
Rodney Stone. valued at $1,000. AS
matter of fact. the boys did not take
their dogs with them, and the brutes
have never been taken from this city.
The boys intended to pursue their col
legc course like any other students at
the university, and expected that they
would be treated as other students at
Cornell are.
Instead Of this, however. from the first
they were subjected to petty annoy
ances, which were SO frequent that they
we're unable to get enough sleep. The
most extravagant stories were circu-
lated in regard to the manner In which
the boys lived. They We're described as
having horses and hounds and all sorts
of things, while as matter of fact they
were living just as the other students in
the university lived.
One of the things which happened fire.
quently cost the boys a great deal of
sleep. Aged agriculturists from the back
districts would hitch up their horses
after they had finished their days work
and drive to Ithaca for the purpose of
looking at the pets which the Crokers
were alleged to keep. The idea seemed
to prevail that the boys We're anxious
always to display their possessions. The
result was that they We're Knocked out
of bed at all hours Of the night by Curl
Gus country folk who demanded that the
dogs be produced, and who questioned
the boys as tho they were the proprie-
tors of circus side show.
The young men, who are healthy
American boys, made no complaint
about their treatment at first. They
thought that within a few days after
their arrival in Ithaca the persecution
would cease. But the tide of visitors
instead OF falling rose, and at length 1t
became evident to them that they were
not to be left to pursue their university
course in peace.
The boys have returned to New York.
snd 1t was said that Richard Croker, Jr,
had about given up all idea OF having a
college education, and that he would en-
ter some business in New York within
few days What Herbert Croker's
plans are Is not known.
The friends of Richard Croker, Sr.,
say that he felt very keenly the position
in which his sons have been placed. and

BARBECUE A GREAT OCCASION.
No Politics But Plenty of Good Cheer
There.

Americus' fortunate few who attend
ed the barbecue near Leesburg q day
or two since are at home again and de-
clare it one of the most delightful oc-
casions of like kind ever witnessed.
For obvious reasons the~ professional
politicians who usually crowd in upon
such occasions were conspicuously alb
sent at this Messy Deli feast, and only
the elect and the Amounted attended.
The cue was arranged by the Lee
county friends and neighbors of Hon.
Phil Cook, secretary of state, who in
vited several Atlanta friends to be his
guests. These gatherings are ar
ranged annually, and are always most
enjoyable. An Americus guest de-
clares that politics were not mentioned,
the hundred or more guests discussing
farming and the growing crops while
enjoying one of the most sumptuous
feasts ever spread at Messy Dell, IA
nous for its great gatherings and
good dinners.

SHIPS MATERIAL TO MARIETTA.
Where It Is Made Into Chairs and
Shipped Back.

The woods and swamps in the coun-
try tributary to Americas abound in
hardwoods suitable for the manufac-
ture OF furniture, and it is fact that
carloads of this raw material is ship
ped to Marietta, Ga. where it is made
into chairs and shipped back to Ameri-
Gus dealers, the purchaser ''paying
she freight" both ways. But this is
only one of many instances where we
are consumers only instead of pro-
ducers, as we should be. In fact,
everything consumed here, pretty
much, is manufactured elsewhere.
Fort Valley supplies our canned goods,
Albany our fertilizers, Marietta our
chairs, Griffin and Augusta our cotton
goods, Gainesville our shoes, Colum-
bus our corn meal, while Atlanta fur
nishes the liquor and whatever else
may be required. Americus only sup
plies the appetite and pays the bills.

PLENTY OF WHEAT IN SUMTER.
Growing Crop the Finest In Several
Years.

Capt. John A. Cobb, one of the most
extensive and successful farmers of
Sumter county, told the Times-Re-
corder yesterday that the wheat crop.
now about ready to be harvested, was
perhaps the largest in acreage as we'll
as the best he had ever seen grow in
this section.
There will be biscuit in plenty in
Sumter this summer.
Not in years has such a large num-
Der of farmers planted wheat, the
fields ranging from the five acre
''patch" to the hundred acre field of
the farmer who believes in raising his
supplies.
Capt. Cobb planted twenty acres in
wheat for forage and is now cutting
this crop. Horses and stock general
ly eat it ravenously, and as it comes
off three to four weeks earlier than
oats 1t supplies stock until the latter
crop is harvested and also prevents a
''hole" in the corncrib.
Capt. Cobb has travelled extensive
ly oyer south Georgia recently and
has seen waving wheat fields every
where. Cotton and corn, too, are
growing vigorously, though both are
small as yet.
