PROTEST AT DELAYED TRAINS
Railroad Commission Asked to Afford
Relief.

Exhausting every other effort and
exasperated beyond measure at the
very wretched schedules afforded and
general delay of mail trains, complaints
are now being filed with the Railroad
Commission. That body is urged to
rectiiy this growing trouble.
But the Railroad Commission now
has no authority to regulate schedules
of trains, more's the pity.
Owing to some oversight upon the
part of the past legislature, the author
ity to regulate schedules, as requested
by the Commission, twas not granted.
But it will be at the next session Of
that body.
In the meantime these complaints
about delayed trains are coming in
from various parts of the state daily.
The situation has really become seri-
Gus, it would seem, almost over the
entire state.
But, there is nothing to do but keep
up the fight for authority to do some
thing, The legislature will again be
urged to deal with the matter but in
any event there is q wait OF eight
months ahead before any relief is pos
sible.
And in the meantime the people OF
the state are bowling.

coLoRED FAIR TO OPEN MONDAY
First Georgia Fair by CoIored People
Success.

The first fair under management of
the cOlored people of Georgia opens
Monday next in Macon. Already eight
to ten car loads of agricultural exhibits
have been listed, and these embrace
displays from all over the state.
Quite a number of Americas negroes
are stockholders in this state fair, and
several creditable exhibitions wilt go
from Americas and Sumter.
The first day will be devoted to the
opening exercises and the woman S
congress. There will be display by
women of bread, cakes, pies and other
things in the domestic lines, with all
kinds of needle and fancy work.
The opening address will be made by
Booker I. Washington.
In the physicians congress, which
will be led by DR., E. E, Green of Ma
con, a number of talks will be made by
the prominent colored physicians OF
the state.
Among the other features will be Ed
ucational Day, when addresses will be
made by Rev. John E. White, Prof. J.
A. Torbett, and number of prominent
colored educators, led by DR.. w. II.

THE couNrY's FUNDS
Rumter will Pay 5000 Annually to
Other County.

One very important fact to be con-
sidered, in the event the Third district
agricultural college is located in
another county than Sumter, is the
cost in cash to this county for the man
tainance of the school. These district
colleges are to be sustained with funds
taken from the general educational
fund, now prorated among the 146
counties of the state for public schools.
This being true, Sumter county will
be called upon to pay about $500
annually from her portion, And it is
not for year, or two years, but the
cost is perpetual. In twenty years,
at the late of 5000 per annum, we will
have paid out $4,000, sum nearly
sufficient to secure the location of the
college here, and yet we will then have
nothing to show for it. The county
commissioners of Bibb are going to
appropriate $4,000 to have the Fifth
district college located in Macon.
What will Sumters commissioners do
!, on that line?

The BUREAU WAS a SURPRISE
Instead of Decline the Market Went
Higher.

The effect of the publication of the
monthly ginners report at noon yester-
day was an agreeable surprise to the
cotton trade in Americas, as elsewhere.
Nearly everyone expected to see a
sharp break in prices, but so far from
a decline the market actually advan-
ced and nearly a quarter cent was
added to the value of the staple. The
bureau report yesterday showed
6.8O2. 800 bales cotton ginned to Nov
ember 1st. This number was a great
deal less than expected, the trade
looking for 100000 or 100000, and
the market advanced sharply. The
bottom has probably been reached in
the recen4 decline of LIZ cents, and q
reaction is expected. Nine and three
fourths cent was the price paid in
Americas yesterday.

FIVE THOUSAND FOR a COLLEGE
County OF Ware Comes Up With the
Money.

Sumter and other counties are given
an object lesson in the action of the
commissioners of Ware county, who
have recommended an appropriation OF
$4,000 for the state agricultural college
should it be established in Waycross,
and it is stated that probably the same
amount additional has been subscribed
by citizens of the county, besides sew
eral hundred acres of land. The cost
of the buildings for the college will be
in the neighborhood of $4,000 and it
is believed that this sum will be sub
scribed before the college committee
meets there next Monday.

The best treatment for Indigestion
and troubles of the stomach is to rest
the stomach. 1t can be rested by star
walton or by the use of a good diges-
tant which will digest the food eaten,
thus taking the work off the stomach.
AT the proper temperature, single
teaspoonful of Kodol will wholly di-
gest 5000 grains of food. 1t relieves
the present annoyance, puts the stom-
ach in shape to satisfactorily perform
it's functions. Good for indigestion,

the heart and dyspepsia. Kodol is

Central Maine Fair Notes.

The first entry for the cattle depart
ment of the Central Maine fair was
made Wednesday by +. A. Cook OF
the Lake Shore Farm. North Belgrade.
Mr.. Cook has a fine herd of Jerseys
entered which will be one of the main
features Of interest of this department.
Another unique exhibit to be made
at the Central Maine fair will be a
miniature creamery under the manage
ment of r. +. Jaynes, representing the
II. p. Hood Creamery Co. of Boston
In this exhibit, the farmers and dairy
men Of the State will have the privilege
of watching the latest scientific meth
DDS, of steriliZing milk and producing
therefrom, cream and butter. Not only
will this be n natural drawing card to
large number of the patrons OF the
fair, but it is regarded as a most
economical means of disposing of the
quantities Of milk which, each year
are drawn from the hundreds of cows
and wasted for want Of proper care.
Although the trustees Of the Contra
Maine fair have extended the time fol
the receipt of entries of livestock, the
date from which the age of animals
to be entered is to be reckoned Aug. l
| will be unchanged.
