SALE OF 400 BALES.
is MADE IN CITY.
Stocks in Americas Reduced
Greatly.
GOOD PRICES PAID FOR STAPLE
Nearly the Entire Reserve Stock Of
Cotton in Americus Sold Yesterda
on Basis of Ten and a Half Cents
n for Good Middling.

Americas warehouses; yestei day were
cleared of practically all the reserve
stock car ried when more than four
hundred bales were sold on Q basis OF
1O9 cents for coed middling, thus
netting the handsome sum of welInigh
$50, 900.
Probably less than fifty bales repre-
sent the entire stock here.
Six months ago Americus warehouses
carried 1900 bales, the owners having
firmly resolved not to sell it until the
market went to satisfactory price.
But the bales have since been sold,
and in nearly every instance at good
price.
OF the 400 bales sold Yesterday
Messrs. Johnson & Harold sold 200
bales to Savannah house. Mr.. Geo.
Oliver cold about $50 bales from his
ware house to Messrs. Frank P. Mont.
f and G j. White, these gentlemen
buy lug largely of stocks held here.
They bought some fifty bales addi-
tional at other warehouses;, thus maxi
ing the to al sales for the day more
than 400 bales.
All of this was on basis of 1Ot cents
for good middling.
Perhaps no interior market in the
state has sold outas clean as has Amer
icus, and the warehouseman will now
proceed to put their storage depart
ments in shape for the new crop. For
within sixty days they will be filed
with new cotton.
During the season just ended Amer
icus received more than seventy thous-
and bales, beating all previous records
ia the way Of receipts. Cotton came
from new territory far and near, en-
phasizing the fact that this Is the best
interior market.
And she will keep up her record
hereafter, both in point of receipts and
high prices paid.

AVAILABILITY.
one Need he Neither Weak Nor staPfd
to Have This Quality.


to Have This Quality.
By a process of false reasoning ans
ability has been connected both colo
quially and i'll writing with weakness
and stupidity. Strength and ability in
sure it to no one: consequently, says
that hasty judge, the public, it usually
exists without them Nothing was ever
more untrue. Stupid people and weak
people may be-they very seldom are
amiable by nature, but they are the
only people for whom it is nearly inn
possible to cultivate amiability 1t is
very difficult for really weak man
to be sweet tempered.
The first thing which the person who
desires TO be amiable must determine
to do is never to produce fear among
his own Surrounding-to be willing, in
a social sense, to let every one off, so
that no one regrets too bitterly having
said foolish or i'll judged thing be
fore him, but comforts himself with the
thought that it is forgotten; never,
that is, to lower any one i'll his own eS-
teen. The second is not to differ about
matters of no importance. not to debase
sincerity into contradictoriness, and not
to set for other people standard
which it is unreasonable to suppose,
from previous experience of their char
acters, that they will ever reach. The
third is never to let his good principle
interfere with some one else'S harmless
privilege, to remember that praise is
positive necessity to the spiritual and
mental development of the young, and
that iniudicious blame acts as a blight.

It has been so long since Judge Cobb
has filled out marriage license that
his facile pen is dust covered from dis
use.
One recalled as dream yesterday
the days six months ago when icicles
three feet in length festooned every
roof here.
Severed other business houses will be
opened in Americas ere the fall season
opens, arrangements to that end having
bsen made.
Now that the fats and the leans have
demonstrated that they cannot play
ball, Americus enthusiasts pine for the
real article.
Now is the time to get bargain IN
an oVercoat, while good wool blankets
can be bought at any store at re-
duced price.
The man behind the fountain worked
overtime yesterday as he dealt out
cooling liquids to the thirsty aggrega-
ton in front.
Quite bunch of fives and tens were
fingered by Chief Feagin from fines
flltched from frowsy fellows in police
court yesterday.
The only reason real estate deal was
not reported yesterday was that no one
in Americus cared to part with a good
thing like realty.
A party of fishermen, equipped with
tent and other paraphernalia, left yes
terday to spend whole week along the
banks of Muckalee.
Care should be given horses and 9TH
er stock during this torrid weather.
The police will keep an eye upon those
who mistreat horses.
Open cotton is reported in ever sec
ton of the county, but the boIIs are
few and scattered and the first bale is
yet far in the future.
Americas cooked with the rest of the
country yesterday The popuIace
stayed indoors and the blazing streets
were almost deserted.
With cotton selling at 10t cents, one
wonders how those fellows feel who
burned up their bales and executed a
war dance in the embers.
The estate of the late Judge H. Fl.
SIngletary is estimated to be worth
about 800 600, it is said, which includes
considerable life insurance.

Nervousness and sleeplessness come
more often from weak stomach than
from any other cause; headache, and
backache, and rheumatic pains are di-

the stomach. MI-o-na corrects all

and nervousness, kidney trouble, or
rheumatism, is quickly cured.

projects, make payments for their
water as required by law. These re-
payments will be slow at first, but once
the system is in full swing, the refunds
will aggregate many millions each year.
At the close of the last fiscal year, on
June 80, 1905, the government reports
show that Oregon has contributed more
money to the reclamation fund than
any other state, for Oregon has made
heavier returns Of cash from the dispo-
sal of it's public lands than any other
state The reason why mas been made
quite apparent. Oregons choice tim
Der has been gobbled up more rapidly
than that of any other state. Because
of it's heavy cash returns Oregon held
the record for land business in 1894 and
in 1903. Prior to that North Dakota
took the lead. Now North Dakota is
forging ahead, and promises to out
rank Oregon within year or two, for
the receipts from timber lands in Ore
gon are falling off very rapidly, while
North Dakota shows a much smaller
decline.
Strange as it may seem, Oklahoma,
the third largest contributor to the re-
clamation fund, has not received the
slightest benefit from the national re-
clamation law, and not a cent out of
the big fund mas been set apart for
work in that territory. Washington is
a close follower after Oklahoma and is
the fourth largest contributor to the
reclamation fund.
