THE GIBBfT FOR BUNDRlCK

him, and shot his wife in the back OF
the head, Mr.. Shrowders wife sur
vived but still suffers from wound
from which she will never recover.
The other Bundrick alleged an alibi
which was sworn to by his mother
and others. George Bundrick himself
stated that his brother was not with
him when the killing was done. For
this reason the jury sent him to the
penitentiary.
There was no doubt in George Bund-
rick's case.
He was convicted and sentenced to
be hanged. The case went through
the courts and the prison. commission
declined to interfere. Governor Terrell
then granted Bundrick a respite in
order that the prison commission
might again consider the case,

thought that he was being pursued,

FINE SEASON OF BUSINESS
AmeriCuS Merchants Feel Confident of Excellent Fall
Trade.
Trade.

Americus merchants are looking for
porous fall season of business in years
which begins with the movement of the
cotton crop. And it is upon crop con-
ditions at present that business men
base their hopes.
While the seasons were unfay yorable
at the crop planting time, and many
plant, the outlook at this time is decid-
edIY more auspicious.
Young cotton possesses wonderful
recuperative power, and it has escaped
the dangers besetting it.
Farmers declare the crop prospect at
this time quite as good or better than
it usually is in June. 1t is we'll work
ed, the fields are free of grass, and with
no disastrous seasons to follow Sumter
and other counties here will make fine
crops.
And the prospective price. too, lends
hope to the farmer.
AS told several days ago in the Times
Recorder, an Americus cotton firm is
offering now to pay III cents for cotton
delivered in the fall.
Thus, farmer can sell his entire
cropNright now, at a most satisfactory
price, and go on about his business
without worry upon that score. The
price is all right.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1907-06-08

All he has ito. do is to make the sale
now and ''deliyer hle goods" when his
crop is gathered.
A good cotton crop and good prices
for it fully assures fine fall trade, and
it is to this end Americus merchants
are looking. Besides the crop prospect,
the establishment of large business
enterprises here this year lends much
encouragement.
The building of the agricultural
college, the installation of a great power
plant and electric railway, the assured
paving of the business streets, the
erection of scores of handsome dwell
lings and more business blocks, means
greater prosperity.
All these things make business men
believe that they are going to expe-
rience very prosperous and general l.
ly satisfactory fall trade Collections
are expected to be good.
If this section makes a cotton crop,
and if prices remain near where it
seems that they must inevitably re-
main, there is little reason to doubt
that the roseate prospects will be fol-
| lowed in due season by full realization.
The Times Recorder indulges in this
belief with our business men and
trusts that hopes builded high will be
fully realized.

AMERICUS BOY WINS THE HONORS
Awarded Glass Medal Over $50 Com.
DetitOrS.

The many Americus friends of Cadet
Walter Rylander, of the Staunton, Va.
Military Academy, will be highly
gratifed upon learning of his success
in winning yesterday the individual
competitive medal, contested for by
over $50 cadets of the Academy
The pleasing announcement Was con-
veyed in telegram to his father, r.
Arthur Rylander.
This is indeed a marked distinction
when it is remembered that the Staun-
ton Academy is one of the best military
schools in the United States, ranking
third in the list.
Walter RyIander and j. d. Hooks,
the young son of Mr.. Thomas B..
Hooks of Americus, have made envia-
BILE records at the Academy, both in
studies, in the military branch and in
athletics. This is their first year in
the school, and their success has been
marked.
The Staunton Cadets have just re-
turned to the Academy from James
town, where they went for week $50
strong. Cadets Hooks and Rylander
left the Academy Yesterday and will
spend two weeks in Washington and
Philadelphia before returning home.
From New York they will sail by
Savannah steamer for Americus to
spend their vacation.

ATTEND LAUNCHING OF STEAMSHIP
AmeriCuS Party Leaves for Chester
Penn.

Mr.. U. B. Harold and daughters,
Misses Anna and Elizabeth Harold,
left yesterday for Savannah, sailing
aboard the Kansas City for New York
and going thence to Chester, Penn. to
witness the launching next Tuesday
of the splendid new steamship "CitY o
Savannah" of the Ocean Steamship
Co.'S line, now nearing completion.
The new ship will be the largest and
finest of the fleet, and her launching
next Tuesday will be attended with the
usual interesting ceremonies. Some of
these days, it is to be hoped, the steam
ship"City of Americus' will be launch
ed from this yard. Already there has
been two ships named for Atlanta and a
like number each for Macon and
Savannah, and the smaller cities along
the Central Railway will probably re-
cieve like recognition in the future.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachain Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound of imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
nes is the result, and unless the in
1ammatiOn can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal cond1-
ton, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
