OFFICES NOW IN AMERICUS
Division Head quarters of the SeabOard Again FStab-
IiShed Here.

Promptly at II o'clock, noon, yes

ment of trains on the Fifth division
of the Seaboard Air Line Railway
were cut in here, and Americus, after
lapse of ten years, again becomes
the headquarters for the Fifth.
seen, therefore, that quite an addi-
all the departmental heads and en-
ployes, are in the city.
These came yesterday morning,
numbering sixteen men, half dozen
of whom have families. 1t will be
seen, therefore, that quite an addi-
ton to the city's population is thus
effected.
Prior to the removal of the offices
here, spacious quarters had been fit
ted up in one of the large brick build
ings owned by the company at the
shops. One entire floor will thus
be occupied and the officials and en-
ployes will be made comfortable
there.
Several carloads of office furniture,
fixtures, records, etc, have arrived
from Savannah, from whence the
headquarters were removed, and dur
ing yesterday this was put in place,
and the men are already "at home
and prepared for business.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1907-07-30

The removal of the offices here is
valuable acquisition to Americas
and duly appreciated in commercial
circles generally.
The presence of Supt. Grimshaw
here is especially advantageous, and
his many friends will extend a well
come after long absence. He has
been with the company many years
and is fully identified with its inter-
ests, as with that of the public.
Americus, as the geographical CEN
ire of the Fifth division, is logically
the place for the headquarters, fact
fully recognized by the officials re-
Gently in having the offices removed
here.
Despite the fact that the removal
has actually been accomplished, the
trades bodies of Savannah will meet
President Garrett in that city tomor-
row in final effort to have the head
quarters carried back. This, how
ever will accomplish nothing.
The offices are now in Americus
and will remain here.
The Fifth division, with headquar
ters here, comprises the line from
| Montgomery to Savannah $40 miles
Columbus to Albany, about 100 miles
together with the Fitzgerald branch.

The Knockout Blow.

The blow which knocked out Corbetb

From the earliest days of the ring the
Knockout blow was aimed for the jaw,
the temple or the jugular vein. Stomach
punches were thrown in to worry and
weary the fighter, but if a scientific man
had told one of the old fighters that the
most vulnerable spot was the region OF
the stomach, he'd have laughed at him

ANNIVERSARY OF ANOTHER BLOWUP
Prohibition and GunpOwder Game on
Same Date.

If the prohibition bill passes to-
day, as the bellringers anticipate, it
will be peculiarly fitting inasmuch as
this date is the anniversary of the
explosion of the Crater at Petersburg
during the Civil War. Forty-three
years ago today-July 80, 1864, the
Yankees at Petersburg touched off
their mines with disastrous result, as
many old Confederate veterans in
Americus will distinctly remember,
and today the serried ranks Of the
Prohis will set off another explosion
which. while not disastrous like the
other will be heard throughout the
United States, as Georgia gets in the
dry column.

WATERMELONS PROFITABLE CROP
Handsome Sum of $500 Melted on

The finest results from a water
melon patch this season is reported
from the farm of Mr.. Paul Easterlin,
one of Sumter's progressive young
planters. Upon a field of four and
a half acres of ordinary land Mr..
Easterlin has sold $500 worth of mel
ons, shipping the fruit to distant mar
kets. His success has been rather
phenomenal, and shows what Sum-

cultivation. The land can now be
sown in peas, turnips or any one of
dozen other crops, and will thus
produce fine second crop" as

BIG GAME is PROMISED
TODAY ON DIAMOND
When Bankers and Lawyers
Meet
CONTEST WILL BE FIERCEST EVER
Dime Counters Confident of Their
Ability to Beat the Courthouse
SpieIerS Who Laugh Them
to SCOrn.
CONTEST WILL BE FIERCEST EVER

While Americus understands base
ball from the toss-up to the flight of
the umpire in the last inning, her
rooters will be treated today to the
most marvellous rendition of the game
ever witnessed, and fairly bristling
with new and startling stunts.
This is the game in which the bank
ers and lawyers will tangle, and a
case wherein Greek meets Greek in
a finish scropfest.
1t will have no parallel in the his
tory of the national game.
The lineup of the opposing sides,
as published on Sunday, assured this
fact, and already the ardent suppor-
ters of each team are backing them
with utmost enthusiasm. Watermel-
ons, cigars, hats and other produce
are being bet with utmost abandon.
And as the proceeds of the game
go to the library and the hospital
equally, a mighty host will go out
to see the game and cheer the play
ers.
The courthouse contingent are
banking heavily upon the knocking
abilities of Col Blalock and Col.
Sheppard, and the odds are fcur to
one on Col. G. Cleve Webb's sprint
ing qualities, unless the girls in the
grand stand rattle him with their
smiles.
The bankers lay their money on
Emmett McNulty who, while not a
"knocker" is fleet of foot and would
not dare look at the girls. Nothing
deters him from the line of busi-
ness.
Lee Hansford will put on his ac-
customed automobile speed and for
once much is expected of him.
The opposing teams will be jaunti-
ly costumed-those of the bankers
being spangled with $$$$ as dis
feature, while the law
yers will wear a coat of appeals and
breeches of trust, cut by the rule
nisi.
The following rules have been
signed by the respective managers:
Rule 1. The lawyers will be stop
ped from using technicalities in the
game
Rule 2. The lawyers will be en-
Joined from making a run" on the
bankers.
Rule 3. The lawyers will be al
lowed the concluding argument after
each decision of the umpire.
Rule 4. The bankers will be
promptly prosecuted for any attempt
to steal base.
Rule g. The bankers will be put
out of the game for giving foul tips"
to outsiders.
Rule 6. The bankers will be re-
luired to extend the usual three days
Of grace" to the lawyers, should they
fail to score during the nine innings.
Rule 7. Thy player knocking fly
beyond the pitchers stand, will 60
out on a writ of error"
Rule 8. Any banker attempting to
make a loan on the diamond. must
first exhibit a pawnbrokers license, in
addition to knocking three balls.
The game will be called at
o'clock, and the gate ticket admits to
the grandstand as we'll. Fouls, in
cluding bats, will be allowed upon the
grounds, to say nothing of other high
flyers. Handling lemons to the play
ers will be positively forbidden.
Everybody should see this game Of
that season and accumulate a laugh
that will rattle ones Stats for a
whole week.
