AMERICAS TO ASSIST
FUND FOR ORPHANS
Next Saturday is Orphans Day
In Georgia.

Next Saturday, 28th, is Orphans
Work Day. On this day the friends
of the various institutions where
orphans are cared for, and sympathiz-
ers with unfortunate humanity gen.
orally, will set aside the proceeds of
the days labor and donate it to some
home for orphans of which there are
several in Georgia The practice of
setting aside the earnings of this
day for such a noble cause was be-
gun a few years ago and so heartily
have the good people fallen in with
the idea that great financial aid has
been rendered these struggling and
praiseworthy institutions. 1t is one
of the red-letter days of the calendar
Of the homes for fatherless and mo-
therless children. Kind-hearted peo-
pie Of Americas will, as usual, con-
tribute generously to this fund for the

HORSE FELL IN BRIDGE
BUT LIFE is SAVED
Fishing Party Has Lively Ex-
perlenCe.

AIessrs. Arthur Rylander and Oscar
Loving were looking yesterday for a
runaway horse that had tumbled into
a railway trestle swan a millpond,
outrun a fast Central Railway pass
enger train, and then took to the
woods.
And at last reports this equine
prodigy was still in the timber unless,
like Maud, he had kicked the train
off the track and kicked the old mill
pond dry.
Wells mill was the scene of the
fearful experience, and the previous
night the time.
These disciples of Isaac Walton
were fishing at the mill, and had an
chored the horse to a convenient sap
ling. Early in the night the old steed
slipped his andchor and set sail down
the railroad track in the direction of
Americus-and fodder.
Soon they heard a crash, and knew
full we'll the meaning. The horse had
fallen into trestle a short distance
from the mill.
They hurried to the rescue, and
found the nag, as expected wedged
down between the crossties. 1t re-
quired an hours hard work to prize
him out-valuable time when the
fish were biting best.
AS the nag regained his feet on
the trestle he astonished the owners
by plunging headlong into the pond
from that dizzy height. That settled
it, and they prepared for walk to
town while lamenting slightly the loss
of their steed.
But the horse was game and had no
idea of race suicide.
BY the bright moonlight the men
saw him swim across the pond and
again plant himself squarely and de-
family on the railroad
Mr.. Rylander set out to catch him,
not having a gun at hand wherewith
to stop him otherwise, and then began
a lively sprint of three miles. The
old horse kept the track and the "dou-
bic header" thus rushed on towards
Americas.
Very soon Mr. Rylander heard the
approach of the passenger train from
Montgomery, and, fearing a possible
wreck he tagged it and told the en-
gineer of the presence of the horse
down the track. What the engineer
said went up in smoke.
The old horse either outran the
train to Americas, or else took to the
woods, as he has not since been seen
here.
