FIRE RECORD MOST oRATlF YINc
In Special Session the SoIons Receive
Departmental Re ports for Fiscal
Year Ending July lst-City's Condl-
ton the Best in Years.

A special meeting of the city council
was held last night for the purpose of
receiving the various departmental
reports and transsctipg such other
business incident to the close of the
fiscal year, ending with June Both, and
beginning of another years work.
And a lengthy and buey session it
was thus rendered.
The annual reports of the city clerk
and treasurer, the waterworks, police
and fire departments, tesides others,
were submitted to council aud showed
an excellent condition of eff airs.
The report of City CLERK and Treas
urer Hawkes. ref ected the splendid fl
nancial condition of the city; better at
present than in many years past.
Aside from her outstanding bonds,
due in the far future, the city does not
owe dollar and has money in bank.
This most excellent report will be
publit he'd IN full at later date for the
information of our citizens.
Chief Fesgin, for the police depart
men, covered completely the work of
the past twelve months. Americus is
proud of her police force, and this de.
tailed report will be published.
For the fire departm Chief McAr-
thur submitted very gratifying state
ment covering completely the number
Of alarms sent in during the past year,
the value of property endangered, the
total insurance upon such property and
the actual loss sustained.
For the year ending June Sob, the
department was called out forty six
times by fire. The total value of prop
erty endangered was $1O2, 2O5, while
the insurance on same, with contents
of furniture, stocks, etc, was $40, 100,
The actual fire damage was only $1,2O7
A splendid showing indeed for the
Americas fire department which, in a
city of 1000 population has a total
fire loss of only $1,207
But this is in keeping with its past
record, as during the last three and a
half years the.totaI fire losses in Amer
icus have been only $3.50, The
smallest loss was in 1908 when it
amounted to but 1888, and the largest
was in 1904 the losses being $I,697.
The Americas department numbers
seven mer, with four horses and the
very best equipment, and there's not o
better one in the South.

Gus Not Sorry at All.

Both Amerlcus and Valdosta are
now Officially" cut of the state
league, and whatever else we have of
ball this season will be of the old
time amateur kind; better, more inter-
esting and far less expensive that the
poor quality given us to da'e
In fac, not an expression of ragret is
heard at the dictum of the Yamacraws
declaring Americus and Yaldosta no
longer members of the spin hook
state league.
Americus has paid thousands for
ex oerience, and has quite enough.
AS ball town there is none better
in Georgia, as the record of the past
two months will testify. Good money
wa made ont OF it by somebc DIV,
while the people paid the freight,
and for the great outlay of cash q poor
quality of ball was given to us.
Civic pride as we'll as desire to see
the team kept in the fcont ranks I'M
PEELED citizens to put up money time
and again to keep tho club upon its feet
and keep the ball rolling,
Citizens furnished the park and
built the grand stand, and at every
ball game the attendance has been
very gratifying indeed,
And such support was given d. spite
alleged poor management and the fact
that the club lost prestige from the
very beginning. The long string of
daily defeats was most disheartening,
bat the fans and rooters rallied and
rallied again.
The few players in the city will pro-
badly get away soon. A good subscrip-
tion was made up yesterday by.oitizens
for catcher Stephens, about the only
remaining one of the original team
here and who has been ever fal thful
and loyal to Americas.
And the price paid for experience
this season will be turned to better
account next year.

PROSPECT FOR ANOTHER ROAD
Line From Huntington to Heartpine Is
Contemplated.


The Times Recorder has informa-
ton to the effect that new line of
railway here is contemplated, extending
from Huntington, on the Seaboard
Air Line, eight miles east of Amerlcue,
to Heartpine, on the Georgia Southern.
The proposed line would traverse
Sumter, Lee, Worth and Berrien
counties 1t is to be called the Ameri.
Gu =, Sylvester and Southern Railroad,
and would, if built, develop a fine
farming and timbered section of south
Georgia, 1t is said positively that
already a goodly part of the right-of~
way has been secured, and that charter
will soon be applied for. or course if
the line is built Americas would ultie
mately be the terminus. 1t is said
that many prominent men along the
proposed route- are interested, and that
the building of the line will, in fact,
be pushed. The new line would cross
the Albany u Northern road at Oak
field, and the Coast Line at Norman
Park
