a SENSATION AMONG cYPRIANs
Women Sent to Prison for Keeping
Lewd House

Behind the bars of Sumter county
jail two young white women of the
demi-monde, Amy Allen and III. L..
Hill, were placed yesterday by virtue
of sentence imposed by Judge Chas
r. Crisp in the city court, and there
they will spend two long weeks in du.
rance vile.
But there will be more coming to
them at the end of two weeks.
Under sentence of the court the two
women will then serve term of three
months on the county chaingang, or
else pay fine of $40 each.
The sentence, when imposed caused
something of mild sensation in the
crowded courtroom yesterday, as it es
tablished new departure in the way
of Furnishing this class, who heretofore
have had only monetary fine imposed
by the court and which was very easily
paid.
But Judge Crisp has established 6
precedent in sending the women tc
prison instead.
Tue two before him yesterday were
charged with keeping disorderly
house in ''the bottom" The case was
made by the police, who largely sup
piled the evidence upon which conyic
ton followed.
In imposing the sentence Judg,
Crisp said that he sYmpathiZsd will
the prisoners but at the same time h'
sympathized with gray-haired fathers
and mothers; that his duty was to i'm
pose such sentence as would tend t.
deter these women, and others here
in future.
The women, both well dressed AM
of good appearance, were then carrie
to the female ward in the county iai
where for two weeks they will refec
upon what else may happen.

MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
Several Matters of Importance are
Discussed,

The city council met last night in
regular weekly session and disposed of
considerable business. Mayor Haw-
kins presided and nearly full alder
manic board was ranged gracefully
about the table.
Mr.. Edward Stallings, of the Sea-
board Airline, appeared before council
relative to the grading of Jackson
street, stating that his company would
deliver the 300 cars gravel, ar promised.
The first shipments will come in sixty
days and the long promised improve
mert will then begin.
The request of the Americus Gun
Club for 500 and certain concessions
during the interstate tournament here
in April was referred to the finance
committee to be reported upon later.
Council passed last mig ght that famous
anti-spit ordinance, and hereafter it
will be crime against the peace and
dignity of the city for one to spit upon
the sidewalk or in any church, theatre
or public building, and woe be unto
the splitter who forgets and spits.
| An ordinance was also passed, giving
to the city physician full authority to
vaccinate persons where he deemed 1t
necessary, and providing penalty for
those who refuse to submit to vaccin-
alton.
This, however, is not general order
for omp1lsory vaccination.
City Engineer Murray was instructed
to call attention of the Bell Telephone
Co. to the ordinance requiring the
painting of the company's poles in the
city. This ordinance should also In
clude telegraph and electric light poles
as well, putting all of them on the
same basis.
The Seaboard Railway will at once
improve Barlow street bridge.

THINK THE CROP is ALL RIGHT
Enormous Yield of Georgia Fruit
Predicted.

While fruit men about Americus
have for some time past considered
the peach crop safe from cold
there was fear of danger in other
portions of the State. But
President Hale, after a thorough
examination of his great orchard Cf
three hundred thousand trees near
Fort Valley, makes the statement that
the crop Is now safe and promises an
abundant yield. Buds, blooms and
small peaches are now to be found in
all the various stages, so that no
change in the weather that might come
at this time OF the year could destroy
the crop. In 1898 Georgia made the
greatest crop of peaches known up to
that time, and $500 cars were shipped
from the state to northern and eastern
markets. And this year the shipments
will run to 1900 or 900 cars, accord
| ing TO present prospects. In 1898 Mr.
Hale shipped 154 cars, and expects t.
ship 225 this year. This year there ar,
three million more trees in GeorgiG
ready to bear, besides which the ole
trees are coming forward with a goot
crop.

FINE ATTRACTION is PROMISED
In Presentation Here of The Girl From
Dixie

The "best of the season" comes Mon
day night in the appearance of '"The
Girl From Dixie" It is not comic
opera but modern musical play, with
scenes laid in Dixie and New York
City; strong though simple dramatic
story being unfolded. Several of the
best known American composers have
contributed to the score, which runs
from ragtime to the classic. The aim
of the author has been to put into COM
edy some of the elements of romance
and song associated with the south,
which have frequently been used IN
drama, but it is believed not in musical
plays before The comedy Is in two
acts The first act takes place in a
school in small Maryland town; the
second act contains three scenes-the
first act showing Kjtty's debut into so
ciety, the second her college expert
ence and the last her wedding. Not
only will the "girl part of the chorus
be kept up to the standards now re-
quired in musical comedy, but an effort
has been made to make the male cho
rus feature,
