A LITTLE NONSENSE.
Phe Amateur Philosopher on the Man

Phe Amateur Philosopher on the Man
Who Was In Need of Money.
Once there was a man who had
$3.50. Another man who had a bust
ness that seemed hopeless wanted
the money So he took the man
with the $3.50 aside and lied to him
and induced him to buy the bust
ness, which was really worth less
than nothing, because there were
certain debts which the new owner
had to assume. But the purchaser
went to work with grim determine
ton and in short time began to
make money. In twenty years he
was employing 900 men and had be-
come a millionaire.
After that the map who had sold
out went around sadly telling peo-
pie that he had given the rich man
his start in life. And there were
many who believed the rich man was
a monster of ingratitude because he
didn't at least give pension to the
one who had intended to swindle
him.

wiser than yourself. You may re-

STATUS IN THE WINDSOR CASE.
Litigation Still Promises to Be Long
Drawn Out

The statement IN the Tim es. Record
or yesterday that Mr. w. d. Ellis, at
torney,for the British American Mort
gage Co., which holds claim against
the Windsor Hotel, was in the city en-
deavoring to bring about settlement
of the Intricate legal differences con-
corning this property, created consid-
cradle interest IN Americas,
1t is we'll known fact that cit zens
of Americas put $780, COG in this once
splendid property, and it goes without
saying that the stockholders of the
Windsor Hotel are anxious to recover
at least portion of their holdings and
see the hotel rehsbiIitated to its for.
mer condition
In order to get the facts of the con-
ference held Wednesday night the
Times Recorder yesterday sought MIR.
G. r. Ellie, who represents the stock
holders of the property.
He stated that there could, possibly,
have been a settlement, aud that the
attorney of the mortgage company
seemed anxious to bring this about.
But the hitch was in the amount
claimed by Mr.. @. A. Fricker, the GUS
todian of the property, the stockhold.
ers not beng willing to allow the
amount of his claim.
1t will be remembered that Auditor
E. A, Hawkins decision was favorable
to the stockholders, and that he found
that Mr.. Fricker was liable to them for
an amount approximatrng So, 100
Mr., @, A. Fricker, through his at
torney, Mr.. J. FL. LumpkIn, demurred
from the auditors decision and the case
is now pending IN Supreme court
Ia an interview with Mr., Lumpkin
yesterday, he stated that final hear
ing in the Supreme court would not be
handed down, quite likely, before No
vember, 1905.
He further stated that Mr.. Fricker
would make no settlement other than
that proposed at the conference of
those interested on Thursday night,
and which, in effect, is that he contends
for about SO, 60G, or like amount, in ex-
cess of the sum to which the stock
holders think he IS entitled as custo-
dian of the property.
Mr. Lumpkin sees no end to the Iiti-
cation as the case stands.
The British-American Mortgage Co.
has taken its claim 10 the United States
court. When Judge Emory Speer rem
ders his decision, doubtless one side or
the other will take exceptions, necessi-
tating additional court costs and longer
delay in the settlement of this case
As the Times Recorder sees it, there
is no end to this tangle.
The hearing of exceptions to the
auditors report, filed by Mr.. G. A
Fricker through his attorney, Mr.. j.
Fl. Lumpkip, and which would have
been passed upon at the recent June
term of Sumter superior court, was
put off on account of the absence of
Mr.. Lumpkin, who at the time was Ill
at Hot Springs, Ark.
Thus the legal controversy gees on,
and each month of delay witnesses the
deterioration in the value of the hotel
property. The immense roof is in need
of repairs, and the ply steal condition
of the hotel very rapidly going to decay.
The Times-R Recorder voices the senti-
ment of interested Americus in wish
ing that the legal battle over this prop
erty may soon be ended
