Fertilizer Company Sells Old Plant In
AmerIcus.
TO ERECT MUCH LARGER ONE.
Virginia Carolina Co. Sells to the
Americas Oil Co. It's Plant Here,
Very Soon Will Erect Large and
Modern Mill in Americas.

The Virginia Carolina Chemical Co.
has sold to the Americas OIL Co. its
large mixing plant, all buildings ard
real estate in Americus and which ad-
joins the property of the latter COM
pany. Lit is quite an important deal
but the terms are not yet made known.
And the Virginia Carolina Co. will
build in another part of the city a
much larger and more modern up-to-
date factory.
This proposition now seems to be a
foregone conclusion.
The Virginia Carolina Co now has
options upon two large and very valua
BILE manufacturing sites, and one of
these will soon be determined upon
as the place of the new factory In
fact, SO far as the public knows, this
may have been decided already.
The property formerly owned by the
company here was smaller than requir-
ed for the new plant.
1t is the same upon which the acid
chambers owned by the company were
burned several years ago, ands but for
the circumscribed land limits, and the
inability of the company to buy adj
joined lands, the proposed new plant
might have been built there.
But that it will be built elsewhere
here seems a certainty now,
The company, since the sale of its
old plant, is now looking about to
place orders for lumber and building
material. The proposed factory will
be very large one.
It is expected that the cost of COM
plotting and equipping the new plant
will be at least 800, 900, if not much
larger sum, as modern and up-to date
machinery will be put in. The plant
will employ some 200 operatives and
have large weekly payroll.
The property here, bought by the
Americus Oil Co. will be utilized in
the enlargement of its plant, mention
of which has already beer made by
the Times Recorder.

300 Reward, 800.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces OF
the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving the
patent strength by building up the con.
stitution and assisting nature in doing
it's work. The proprietoIs have SO
much faith in its curative powers, that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list

MISFORTUNE OF AN HEIREss.
The Owner of Arran Isle Misses Ducal
Title Because She Was Not
Born "a Roy.

The recent visit of King Edward to
the Island of Arran, Oh the coast of
Scotland, recalls the extraordinary
luck of the present duke Of Hamilton,
and the misfortune OF the owner of
Arran in not being born boy, OBJ
serves the Chicago Record-Herald The
present duke succeeded to the title in
the most rOunda bout way. He is de-
scended from the fourth duke, and his
line branched off in 1742 when Lord
Anne Hamilton (whO had been named
after Queen Anne) married. The
senior branch Of the HamiltOns from
the fifth to the twelfth dukes, after
reigning 173 years, became extinct in
the male line, leaving plain Alfred
Douglas Hamilton the dukedom. The
late duke, whose mother was a
princess of Baden, and whose sister be-
came princess Of Monaco, left an only
daughter, who is now 18. She owns
almost the whole Of Arran, which is
one Of the most beautiful spots in the
United Kingdom and has not become
yulgarized by holiday makers.

Clubwomen are working in many

the head of all in this matter The
WOman's club at Wilkesbarre has been
especially interested, securing the ap-
pointment of forester to care for for
ests in the vicinity.
The Maine federation has a commit

CONSUL NAST'S DEATH.


Received at Washington.
WASHINGTON. Dec 3l-Details
of the death OF Thomas Mast, late
United States consul general at Guaya-
quill, have reached the state depart
ment in a report from United States
Vice Consul Robert &. Jones. who
nurscd his superior to the end.
Mr.. Jones says that Mr.. Mast was
taken sick on Monday Dec. /, with
what he thought to be Il bilious attack.
Upon returning to GuayaQuil on that
day Mr.. Jones found Mr.. Mast lying in
his hammock dressed. He said he had
q bilious attack, but thought he would
soon be all right. Mr.. Jones insisted
on calling a physician, who said Nj.
Mast had liver trouble.
On the Saturday following another
physician was called in, who pro-
nounced the disease to be yellow fever,
IN which opinion he was corroboratcd
by Il third physician, and both said his
condition was very Serious. Mr. Mast.
however, did not think so, and as late
as 1890 p, m. Saturday he said he felt
much better and would soon be all
right.
Mr.. Ashton, the British vice consul
and Mr.. Jones took care Of the sick
man all night. About 1890 a. N he
became worse and lost consciousness
and, after a long and hard struggle,
expired at 1l:35 Sunday morning. His
funeral was attended by all the off
cials at GuayaQuil.
