ATLANTA YEARNS
FOR HENNERIE,
Dear Pwince" to Be Corraled If Pos
sible.
MARTHAVILLE IS WIDE AWAKE
Splendid Advertisement For the City.
Would Draw Visitors and Trade
and Prove a Fine Financial In
vestment.

Atlanta, Jan. 29.-Atlanta will haye
Prince Henry if he strolls anywhere In
this section of the South during his
visit to the United States. The people
of this city will make long pull, a
strong pull and q pull all together to
capture him, and will enlist the assis-
lance of the county and state officially
in securing the princes presence IN
Atlanta for at least one day.
The prince as an advertising card for
the Gate City is regarded as "hotstuf
and every effort will be made to secure
him, so that in later years it can be
said that che once lived here and has
many friends in this city"
If the prince comes he will be shown
every attention.
He will be given banquet, a ride
over the city and particularly a drive
ont Peachtree and back in Col. Bob
Lowry's tallaho coach and then carried
to Grant park, where will be shown
him the Gress Zoo, and the Cyclorama
Battle of Atlanta. All of these things
will no doubt greatly attract his atten-
tion and give him lots to talk about
when he returns home, and over a mug
Of beer tells the emperor all about the
things he saw in the United States.
He may also be entertained at an
oyster roast and beer matinee at the
Atlanta brewery, as a final wind up of
the festivities of the occasion.
The Chamber of Commerce and the
city council of Atlanta have passed
resolutions inviting Prince Henry to
visit Atlanta, in which it is intimated
that shosld he fail to do so he will re-
turn home without having seen very
large slice of the United States.

PUSHING RAILROAD
THROUGH GEORGIA.
The Brunswick and Birmingham 6
Certainty.
NOW SECURING ITS TERMINALS,
Americas May Yet Hear Whistle of
of the B. and B. Line Will Be Rap
idly Pushed Through Georgia This
Year.

Americas may yet hear the whistle
of a Brunswick & Birmingham Rail-
way engine ere the summer wanes and
the season of billiards comes again.
Prominent officials Of the company
were in Brunswick yesterday, and i'm
portant developments are looked for
within the next few days, One of the
officials, Vice-President Bushnell, is
quoted as saying that beyond any
question the Brunswick & Birming ham
will be pushed through Georgia and
into the metropolis of Alabama even
earlier than his company expected.
It was necessary to secure the desired
terminals at Brunswick before pushing
the road into the interior, and now
that this has been done there will be
no further delay. Plenty of cash is in
evidence; another cargo of steel rails is
due to arrive at Brunswick shortly,
and dirt will soon be flying all along
the line. Americus is. on a direct
route between Brunswick and Biz
mingham, and while our citizens have
taken no concerted action towards
bringing the road here it is hoped tina
the Importance of Americus will lnduc'
such step upon the part of its pro.
jectors.

MULTITUDE TO HEAR EVIDENCE.

While the excitement growing out of
the attemp of the city council
to put the police commission

commission against council, restrain
ing that body from interfering with

interest in this case that, in all proba-

AMERICUs WILL WELCOME ALL
Pythians, Red Men or Soldiers Should
They Come.

Americas will entertain many visi-
tors within her gates shortly, aud her
only regret is that the number cannot
be increased. In February the Pyth-
ian Knights are coming, while month
or two later the city will capituIa'e be-
fore the advancing hosts of Red Men
of Georgia who are coming two hun
dred strong. Both are large and rep
.resentative bodies and royal entertain
ment shall be theirs while our guests.
If Americas could only secure the
regimental encampment in June, as
she might do with proper effort, it
would be very greatly to her advantage.
1t would instill more life and business
into the town in one week than is evil
dent here in month in midsummer.
