Hundreds.

Americus is going to indulge in the
revelry of ''going to the show" Tues
day, and those who hunger for q
glimpse of the elephant and to renew
acquaintance with the clown and the
monkey will be able to carve great
hunks of delight from this occasion.
It is the first show of the season, and
only those in Jail, bed-ridden or on
clutches will miss it.
Howe's Great London Shows is the
banner under which the charmer comes.
1t has been here before and is a good,
clean attraction alike for the children
old maids and married folks.
The tents will be pitched in FeagiE' e
field, the usual show grounds. There
are many trained animals, fancy rid
ing, excellent trapeze work and Other
fine features calculated to make the
audience rubber" in the effort to SET
it all and miss not a thing.
And several thousand visitors vii
come to see the show Tuesday.

EASILY BROUGHT TEN PENNIES.

Dime Per Pound is the Price of Cot.
ton Here.
Ten cents per pound is the price of
cotton established in Americus, and
the even dime was freely paid here yes
ter9ay for the staple of good quality
Receipts are falling off everywhere,
and spinners who expect to stay in
business see the necessity of getting
into the game at once. 1t is a matter
of regret that such a large number of
farmers were forced to sell while the
combine of spectators and spinners
depressed the market to the end of
buying the crop at their own figures,
but those who managed to hold their
cotton Will get even better prices than
are now being paid.

ANCIENT PHOTO OF ANDERSON.
Views of the Old Fence at the Prison
Pen.

Mr. e L. Parker, who is preparing
a writeup for Sumter county for the
Atlanta Constitution, has secured sew
eral rare photos of AndersonVille pris-
on which will be presented with his
article, The pictures were made i'm
mediateIy after the Civil War, and
shows the pine log stockade intact as
it held 10000 yankee prisoners for
months, a menace to Americus and
this section of the state. 1t was not
known that such photos were in exist
ence here and they will prove Va'ua-
bile feature of Mr. Parker's article.

FARMERS NOT HOLDING BALES.
Few Comparatively Have Stored
Their Cotton.

Their Cotton.
Amerlcus cotton men were disposed
10 emile audibly yesterday at an inter-
view in the Savannah News wherein
Mr.. Julian Clark, of Albany, and
known here as well, gives his opinion
upon the cotton crop. Mr.. Clark said
that all through the state planters had
stored their cotton and placed selling
orders at twelve cents, and the cotton
that is now coming into the ports ere
lots that are being sold by the cotton
firms in the interior towns who are
taking advantage of the rise in the
market to unload what they were able
to pick up during the depression some
time ago. Mr.. Clark said that he had
been in nearly every city in the state
of any size within the past two weeks,
and everywhere he went farmers were
going about with their cotton receipts
safely deposited with the warehouse
| men, holding out for twelve cents. The
fact that Mr.. Clark did not include
Americus in his recent tour of the state
is probably to be regretted. Surely be
wsuld have seen little cotton "stored
for y cents" here, as the sharks got
the bulk of the crop at 81 cents. II
[ fact, he has not been in Americas dur
ing the entire cotton season, and sure
ly city receiving $4,000 bales annua
ly should not have been Overlooked.
It is to be hoped that this recent inter
view will not have the effect of bearing
the market beyond cent or two, com
ing as it does with Buston's estimate O
II, 800, 900 bales.

DISCRIMINATING LADIES.
Enjoy Using Herpicide ON Account OF
It's DISTINGUISHES.

The ladies whe have used Newbro's
Herpicide speak Of it in the highest
terms, for its quick effect in cleansing
the scalp of dandruff and also for its ex-
cellence as a general Embarrassing. 1t
makes the scalp feel fresh and it auays
that itching which dandruR will cause.
Newbros Herpicide effectively cures
dandruff, as it destroys the germ that
causes 1t. The same germ causes hair to
fall out, and later badness; in killing 1t,
Herpicide stops falling hair and prevents
badness. 1t is also an ideal hair dress
ing, for it lends an aristocratic charm to
the hair that is quite distinctive. Sold
by leading druggists. Send ice. in stamps
