bid farewell to teachers and school days
for other duties more onerous. And

are gratifying to both. For never was
better record made.
The attendance at this session is in
dicative of the rapid growth in the pop

pills enrolled Is the largest eyer, and
the capacity of the school rooms have
been taxed to accommodate all appli-

to be supplied at the fall term.
Supt. Mathis and his corps of able
instructors can we'll reflect upon a year
of success.
The examinations will take place in

GREETED BY LARGE AUDIENCE.
Gov. Taylor Charms His Hearers Last
Night.

Again has Americas opened her gates
to that brilliant, genial and eloquent
son of the south, Elk Governor Robert
Taylor of Tennessee, and again has he
captivated all by his matchless oratory.
Rain was no barrier, for despite the
inclement weather large and most ap-
preciative audience greeted Governor
Taylor at the opera house last night.
He required no introduction to tt e
people of Americus, and his appear
ance upon the stage was the signal for
applause which amounted to an ova-
ton. His subject, "rhe FId lie and
Bow" was portrayed with all its senti-
ment, pathos and beauty. He spoke
words that leaped with laughter and
were wet with tears. Alike he moved
his audience to happiness and sadness
as he trilled the melodious tunes OF
long ago, singing only as Bob Taylor can
sing. Governor Taylor has introduc-
ed several new episodes in his rendi-
ton of ''The Fiddle and Bow" It is
the same old fiddle and bow; almost a
new lee: ure; and if possible is greater
and grander than ever before. There
is always a welcome in Americas for
Bob Taylor.

TO FORM A COMBINE
COTTON MEN MEET,
Organize to Control Prices
in South
INSTEAD OF NORTHERN CITIES
Movement an important One in Cotton
Trade-Southern Men Instead o.
Foreigners Would Control Prices of
Staple.

Americus cotton men are interested
in the result of a meeting of Southern
cotton buyers held in Atlanta day or
two ago, the object of which is the re-
vival of the Southeastern Cotton Buy
ers Association, organized for the pur-
pose of home control of cotton market
as against it's control by foreigners.
Manyglarge firms in Georgia, the
Carolinas and Alabama were represent
ed in the meeting.
This association was reorganized
with G. A. Nicholson of Atlanta as
president, and Chessley B. Howard. as
seer etary. J. f. MCGOWAN of Angus
ia and l. We'll of Opellka, Ala, were
chosen vice presidents.
It is the announced intention of the
cotton men to apply at once for char
ter for the association, in which it is
expected to unite every cotton buying
firm in the Southern states for the pur-
pose of controlling the cotton market
at home.
And in this manner wrest control
from the cotton exchanges of New
York, London aud Liverpool.
Organization will be perfected
in every Southern state, and
Sanders, Swami & Co, and In
man & Co., two of the strongest
firms in the business, will Join heartily
in the concern. A committee will be
appointed to attend the next meeting
of the Southern Cotton Spinners' Asso-
| citation.
This movement will, undoubtedly,
have the sanction of cotton men of the
South generally, as their interests and
that of the farmers will be alike pro-
tected in this way.

A Killing Occurs Down at Leslie Yes

Securely bound with ropes, Charles
Alexander was brought to Amerlcus

The prisoner was brought in by Mr..

turned Alexander over to Sheriff Bell.
Few particulars of the homicide were
related here except that the killing was
justifable, Alexander claiming that he
shot Goshea in self defense. Goshea

garded by some as a turbulent charac-
