Road Law Changed.

The house bill providing for the
division of townships into road dis
tricts, the election of road superin-

ting resident property owners to work
ort three-fourths of their property
tax. passed the house yesterday by a
vote of 10 to q. A fight was made
on the bill by those who opposed al

taxes on the ground that 1t was a
stem backwards, as the roads are in
better condition now than ever be-
fore. They attributed this to the
fact that road work is contracted for.

House Votes For 2.cent Far,

House Votes For 2.cent Fare.
The 2-cent fare bin met the unanf-
nous approval of the house on Tues
day. Not one voice was raised in
protest.
The bill as it came from the COM
mittee, having provision for recog-
nizing the different classes of roads,
came up as special order Tuesday
at 10:30. The bill was read and con-
sidered section by section, and al
most Immediately put upon its pas
sage
When the roll call was ordered
there was an air of suppressed ex-
element. The railroad lobby had
completely disappeared and the bill
was abandoned to the house. There
was no debate and no effort to kill
the bill by amendments.
The roll call showed 100 for the
bill, not one against, only two being
absent, Koontz and Elliott
The bill Immediately went to the
senate where on Wednesday the bill
will be considered in committee.

railroads Of Iowa, without protest and
without contest in the courts.
This proposition was submitted to
the senate committee on railroads
yesterday evening and the committee
| adjourned until Friday, when the 2
cent fare bills will be given further
consideration and the railroads given
further hearing.
Carroll Wright, Iowa attorney for
the Rock Island, proposed the COM
promise measure at the close OF an
afternoon of speeches by the railroad
men, the feature of which was the
plea by General Solicitor Hanson OF
the Milwaukee, on behalf of the rail-
roads, that the senate postpone act
ion on the 2-cent fare proposition till
the Wisconsin railroad commission
reports in two weeks on an inquiry
into the subject continuing over
year.
Members Of the railroad committee
were not expecting the offer of the
railroads to accept any compromise
legislation, having heard threats that
enactment along the line OF reduction
in passenger fare would result in Grip
pied train service c. action in the fed
eral courts. Legislators did not dis
cuss the matter last evening, desiring
to give the new proposal of the rail-
roads careful consideration before
passing uren it.

roads. He had been i'll for three
weeks and not present at the hear.

in an address to the committee in
which he said that 1t was evident

INCREASE IN EXPENSES
CENTRAl'S EARNINGS ARE SHORT
OF EXPENSES
President Hanson Takes Anything
Than Optimistic View of the
Situation.

Col. u B. Harold of the Central's
board of directors, spent yesterday in
Savannah attending an important
meeting of that body, at which it
was expected that matters of more
than usual interest would be discuss
ed by the Central's officials.
President Hanson is thus quoted
by the Press yesterday, relative to
the business and affairs of the Cen
trail Railroad
THE Central's pay roll increased
last year nine hundred thousand dol
lars, and the increased cost of main
tenance six hundred thousand dol
lars, making million and half dol
lars more for maintenance and opera
ton than the year before" said Ma
jor j. F. Hanson,
Our earnings increased just about
half of this amount.
cat the rate we are going it is not
hard to tell where we will land. With
rates being cut and wages being in
creased there is only one end in
sight for any railroad or any bust
ness as for that, and that is bank
ruptcy.
Our earnings increased during
the year, but as stated, our expenses
were twice as great The figures |
have given do not include the cost
of the improvements made, but are
solely for operating and mainten-
ance."

LOOKS LIKE ICE FAMINE
AMERICUS PLANTS RECEIVING RUSH
ORDERS
Several South Georgia Towns FACE
Ice Famine and Order Carload
Lots Here.

Both Americas ice factories have,
for several days past, been receiving
urgent orders for ice from other
towns in southern Georgia, the de-
mands being for any quantity from
ton to carload lots. The towns
thus ordering were then entirely out
! of ice.
From Dawson, Cordele, Albany and
other points where it was hot came
the demand for ice.
Americas has an abundant supply
of ice for the home market, and, as
far as possible, has filled the orders
pouring in from towns less fortunate
in this respect.
Ice, at present, is a necessity, and
not a luxury.
Manager Mitchell of the City Ice
Co. received a hurry order for two
carloads of ice which, at the moment,
| he was unable to fill. Accordingly
he wired a Columbus factory to rush
him two carloads here without a
| days delay.
The reply came that the company
had the ice, but could not secure
cars for shipment; or the labor to
load two cars.
So urgent was the demand that
Mr. Mitchell made arrangements to
get cars here for the purpose and
wired the Columbus plant to this
effect; also agreeing to send six
freight handlers along with the emp
ty cars to insure their being load
| ed.
But the ice came without resorting
to this extreme.
Another customer in a south Geor-
gia town wired for carload to be
shipped Immediately, and BY special
engine if it could not be hurried by
train. This order was filled, as are
all others that are pouring in upon
the factories.
During the recent intensely hot
weather the demand for ice here has
been enormous and all plants are
being operated at their capacity in
an effort to fill orders.

Ireceipts-a yarn pure and SIMPLE, as
everyone knows.
The clubs were to divide the gate
receipts of the game, amounting to a
total of $77.15
Montezuma's share, therefore,
would have been $3S.57.
Instead, however, they were given
$40, or $1.43 more than their por-
ton. Manager Joe Brown of the
Americas team, holds Manager Saw
tells receipt for the amount given

II there is the slightest doubt in the
minds of any that Dandruff germs do not
exist, their belief is compelled by the
fact that rabbit innoculated with the
germs became bald in six weeks time.

therefore that the only prevention of
badness is the destruction of the germ
which act is successfully accomplished
in one hundred per cent of cases by
the application of Newbros Herpicide.
