TN its Great Albany" edition, the
Albany Herald of Sunday issued a pa
per of 100 pages which was a credit
TO the paper and to the town as
well. Nothing quite so pretentious
mas been undertaken by any except
The large cities Of Georgia. The read
ing matter sets forth in excellent
shape the achievements and indus
tries Of Dougherty county's chief
city. Numerous illustrations adorn
The pages Of the paper. In the way
Of advertisements the issue speaks
we'll for the enterprise of the Albany
merchants. All together, the achieve
ment was a notable one and the adj
vantages of Albany have been adver-
Used more effectively than before.

PURCHASED A LARGE
FARM IN DOUGHERTY

Messrs. c. c. Hawkins and Lee
Allen of Americas have completed
the purchase it is said, of a large
plantation Of $500 acres in Dougherty
county. The farm is a very valuable
one and lies at Walker station, on the
Central Railway, ten miles west of
Albany. The Americas men made
the purchase as an investment and
will doubtless find it very remuner-
alive one withal.

Doing Bulk of Work

An interesting feature of the cam
paign is the prominent part the wo-
men and children of the city and
State are taking in the fight In fact
the women are doing the biggest part
of the work, and if local option is
declared, it will be due to their eff
forts more than to those of the men,
The women are doing most of the
campaigning.
Liquor orators have classed the
women working for the anti-license
cause as long tongued gabblers who
should be in their kitchens washing
dishes" This aroused the public SEN
timent so much that the campaign
orators responsible for these utteran
ces have been recalled by the com
mittee and forbidden to make any
more speeches for the license cause.

Rockefeller blames the people for
bringing on the present financial dis
turbances in that they rushed to
withdraw their money from solvent
institutions. John should remember
that everybody hasn't a million or so
in pocket change on paydays.

Savannah and Waycross have ano-
Their bone of contention This time
its the question of the removal of the
Coast Line shops to Waycross from
Savannah. Instead of taking the
South Atlantic Car shops from Way
cross, Savannah has been placed on
the defensive by her doughty but
somewhat diminutive competitor.

Considerably more than a million
divorce cases have been tabulated by
the census department covering the
past twenty years. The figures make
the average over 10000 yearly. There
is striking sameness to the estimate
of the temperance people as to the
number of drunkards who pass away
each year.

Taught Children Songs

November will be a busy day for
the women. They will be at the polls
to canvass voters They have taught
the children in the schools several
anti-license campaign songs, and they
have decorated them with the buttons
gotten out by the committee, on
which is the picture of a child and the
words, Vote No for My Sake" The
women petitioned the Board of Educa-
ton to give the children in the schools
a holiday on election day.
This was refused by the School
Commissioners. They then asked
for permission to teach the children
the campaign songs This, too, was
refused. However, the children have
learned the songs, and they will be
at the polls on election day.

BALL CAME AT COVE.
Fast Game Expected Between Norris Cove and National Wire Co. Mines.

Fast Game Expected Between Norris
 Cove and National Wire Co. Mines.
 Interest at the east shore centers in the ball game to-day between the Morris Cove team and the team of the National Steel and Wire company, which is expected to be one of the best of the year. A few weeks ago the Wire company's team beat Morris Cove after a thirteen-inning struggle, the game being rattler from the start When the Cove team takes the field to-day it will be much stronger than when it first met the Wire com pany, and consequently fast game is expected.
 The Improvements at the Morris Cove field, which have been under way for several weeks, have been complet- ed, another set of covered blachers having been erected and the grounds from the center field fence to the backstop being put in first-class order.
 In to-day's game W H. Hackett. the old Yale player and director of athlet- ics at the high school, will play center field for Morris Cove. Billy" has lost none of his old-time speed.

 Young French, the West Haven boy who has come forward as one of the most daring aeronauts in the country, will positively attempt triple para chute drop This is the most dan- gerous and spectacular of all balloon feats, and is seldom accomplished To do it he will use for the first time new balloon, completed only yester- day, which Johnny Mack claims is the largest in the world.
 A great balloon is necessary to do the triple parachute drop, as the aer- onaut must be carried to height Of over two miles in order to get in the three drops.
