PATHOS AND BEAUTY IN
PLAY HUMAN HEARTS
As Presented in AmeriCuS
Tonight.

Tonight an appreciative Americus
audience will again see Human
Hearts," the beautiful play of love
and pathos which delighted many
upon a former occasion here. The
advance sale indicates large and
appreciative audience.
The play is ingeniously constructed,
and the lovers of plain, lucid drama
tic fiction cannot fail to detect in it,
qualities which they are sure to ad-
mire. There is enough dramatic ma
terial in Human Hearts" for half a
dozen dramas.
Each of it's leading characters COM
bine enough definite traits to equip
a whole community of people: yet its
intricate, ramifying interests are
pierced and dovetailed together with
extraordinary technical skill. They
are all plausible and they work out
logically in the end.
The scenes are laid in the hills
of Arkansas, and the play is interest
ing from the rise of the curtain on
the first act until the final curtain
falls. The climaxes are strong and
exciting, and the story is one that
will appeal to all classes of theatre
goers, no matter what their stations
in life may be.
The situations, lines, and incidental
business of the play, are of such q
nature that they compel the undivided
attention of the spectators. A strong
vein of comedy runs through the
play, but it is SO placed that never
at any time does it conflict with the
more serious scenes. The author has
been careful to preserve the dramatic
unities.
His characters are finely drawn
and as true to nature as possible; in
fact he has taken most of his charac-
ters from life.

COMPANY Il" TO FORM
PART OF BATTALION
The Regiment to DiSband
for Time.

With the disbandmenteof the Fourth
Regiment, to which the Americus
Light Infantry is attached as Com
pany l., that command is to become
part of battalion, and in this way, II
is understood, the military organlza-
ton will be maintained.
The disbandment of the Regiment
it is hoped, will be temporary only.
Owing to the requirements of the
Dick bill that each regiment shall
have twelve full companies, there
are not enough companies in the state
to fill up all the regiments.
1t is understood that the plans OF
the state military authorities are to
fill the vacancies in the First, Second
and Fifth regiments with the COM
panies of the Third regiment.
This will necessitate the disband-
ment of the Third regiment, and
will leave the seven companies OF
the Fourth regiment, which is not
enough, by five companies to meet
the requirement for a third company
These seven companies OF the
fourth will be formed into two bat
tallions, the regimental organization
being done away with.
The Light Infantry will go into one
of these batallions, the headquarters
of which will be at Columbus, toge-
ther with the two Columbus COM
panies and the Albany company. This
battalion will be in command of Maj
J. G. Coart, OF Columbus.
The other battalion will be formed
from the companies at Thomasville
Fitzgerald and Valdosta, with head
quarters in one of those towns, and
commanded by a major to be elected

SEAS OF LIQUID MUD
IN PLACE OF WALK
Dangerous Spot at Central
Depot.

Does the city of Americus or the
Central railway own the walk line
leading to the passenger depot? Just
now both would doubtless deny ow-
nership, owing to the condition of
the approach to the passenger shed.
Yesterday it was a sea of liquid mud
and well nigh impossible, compelling
people to make a long detour to
reach the depot 1t is dangerous as
we'll, as this slough" is crossed by
two or three tracks, thus adding to the
danger to pedestrians, and for fifty
feet pedestrians plough the mud to
reach the depot. Regardless. of ow-
nership, it should be paved, or else
cinder embankment built at this
dangerous point.

TRADE is GIVEN KNOCK
BY CLOUD AND RAIN
Nothing Doing in Business
Circles.

Americus floundered in the mud
deep red mud, yesterday. Instead
of the predicted blizzard there came
a flood which kept the people away
and put blue tags on trade in all
lines. People from the county came
not at all, while the town folks hug
ged the blazing grate-figuratively
speaking. Outside it looked as though
a high speed watef meter was at
tached to the clouds and the city
council asleep, such rush of water
was there from above. Then, too,
the bottom dropped out of the cot
ton market, a fact which blacked the
other eye of business, cutting off as
it did the usual flow Of dollars, ex-
cept those expended for gum shoes
and umbrellas.
