BARBECUE IS MOST ENJOYABLE
Delightful Occasion Out at Schroeder
Springs.

Captain W. r. Paschal was the &C.
NAL host yesterday at a cue royal
spread beneath the oaks at Schroeder
springs, near the city, and there his
guests to the number of $50 or more
were RECALLED with the feast of the
season.
Certain it is that a more enjoyable
occasion of the kind has rarely been
known in Americus.
Capt. Paschal incladed the ladies
among his honored guests, aud they
were thus afforded an opportunity of
knowing how the ''Iords of creation"
really enjoy barbecue feast.
The superb dinner was served upon
longs tables arranged beneath the
spreading trees, and the great delica-
cy of the season, barbecue, in prodigal
abundance, was the "topic" of earnest
and prolonged discussion among the
guests.
Not alone was barbecue in evidence,
but one "smalI hot bird" as well.
AS the result of political wager
Judge j. a. Hixon called for crow,
broiled, and the dish was at hand,
The bird had been prepared with un
usual care, and as the guests cheered
the Judge eat it with absolute religi-
Gus ecstacy.
Some good Samaritan declared it a
broiled chicken, but the Judge had
agreed to eat crow, and he stood at the
rack without asking q question.
When the $50 guests had finished
dinner the county convict force, over
which Capt. Paschal presides, was Civ
en- the right-of- way to the weIl-laden
tables, first entertaining the assem~
blage with many negro melodies of We
olden time.
The music like the feast was enjoyed,
and each striped zebra ratified several
coins in the slack of his zouave suit
ere the retreat was made.

sPARRows IN DRINKING WATER

The origin of typhoid fever ia tracea

patches yesterday told of an epidemic
in Western town, the origin of which

bed to the top of the water tower and
found hundreds of dead sparrows

posed bodies were removed, the tank

ended Americus has had half dozen
or more cases of typhoid fever this
summer, very SIN Ill number for

BILE to the water supply, No city in

ELECTED TO CHAIR IN ATHENS
Supt. Miller May Go To State Norman
College.

The election recently of Prof. A. G.
Miller, uperintendent of the Americus
public schools, to the char of msthe-
mates of the State Normal College at
Athens is a subject of grA,lfication to
bis numerous friends in Americas.
But while approaching the honor
thus conferred they hope he will deem
it best TO remain in Americas, where
he has been 80 long identified ard is
held inssuch universal esteem.
But should he accept, the loss to the
schools here would be great.
Prof Miller is still in Florida, where
he hiss been spending goodly portion
of his summer vacation, and his inteu-
tons in regard to the new position
rendered are, of course, not known.
He will return soon to Americas.
The Board of Education, while ap-
prised of the election of Supt. Miller to
the faculty of the State Normal, have
taken no action thereupon and will not
until Mr.. Miller is heard from.
The position carries handsome in
crease in salary over that paid by the
Americas schools.
Supt, Miller is very capable in
struc!or, and during the two years he
has been superintendent of the Ameri-
Gus schools his services have given
general satisfaction. AS an educator
he easily stands in the first rank.
His decision in the important matter
now before him is awaited with COD
siderable interest.

PLENTY OF THE STAPLE HERE
New Cotton Bales are Numerous in
Americus.

New cotton bales by the wagon load
rolled into Americus warehouses yes
terday, lending an air of unwonted ac-
tivity to business in many lines here.
Already several hundred bales have
been receiued at local warehouses, and
the wheels of trade revoIve more rap
idly under the impetus given by cotton
money. Nine cents continues the pre-
vailipg price, and farmers are not hold
ing the bales where that is offered.
Today will be one of the best of the
August season, and more than a hun
dred bales, 1t is expected, will swell
