A RAzlNG Of SHEDS
ALONG ON LAMAR
City Force Got Busy There
Friday
Awning AND SHED D.swAarLeo
For DIsta cs of aIock the Old St NC
lures sIe Pulled Down AID Appear

gin With Paving.

A small slice of Kingston's earth
quake seemed to have been distributed
along Lamar street yesterday after
noon when the city's street force got
busy among the old wooden sheds and
awnings that for a quarter century
have disfgured that street.
Tin roofs and the clatter OF falling
planks and posts sounded the death
knell of the rickety sheds and the
march of progress in that direction, the
progress of greater Americus.
Everything, shedet1cal, on the north
side came down, or is coming.
From Buchanan's corner eastward
the work Of demolition, or rather of
| improvement, will be extended. Not
only is the safety of pedestrians thus
assured, bat the appearance of Lamar
street will be vastly improved by this
change.
The city is going to lay a handsome
tiled pavement along this portion of
Lamar street, from Rylander's corner
to Buchanan's and this, with the re-
moval of the unsightly old sheds, will
vastly improve the appearance of this
business street.
Americas is waking up now, and is
going to be ''the city beautiful as we'll
as the electric city of Georgia.

 Among matters of interest dis cussed was the present building of sidewalks on Crawford street, and the desirability of cutting down a portion of the hill immediately be- low the level stretch in front of k. l.. Griswold's residence, and the town improvements committee was directed to look into the matter, in order that the change might be made at once if at all, in order that 1t might not be necessary later to disturb the cement sidewalks which are being put in.

Grazing Regulations in South Dakota.

Washington, D. C., Sept. IT, The fourth important case won by the Government upon the question whether it is crime to violate the regulations of the Secretary of Agriculture, has just been decided in the United States District Court, held at Deadwood, South Dakota, where Robert B. Bale was found guilty of grazing trespass on the Black Hills National Forest, and fined $100 and costs. Mir. Bale at once paid the fine and was released.
 The defendant is a stock owner residing south of Rapid City, and has been grazing about 150 head of cattle in and adjacent to the Black Hills National Forest for some years. When the range in the National Forests was put under administration in 1906, and the grazing fee system introduced, Mir. Bale refused to secure grazlng permit or to remove his stock from the Forest.
 After repeated efforts on the part of the local forest officers to per- suade Mir. Bale to remove the stock, he was finally arrested and in Aug ust, 1906, was indicted by the United States Grand Jury at Dead wood. The trial of the case was delayed over two terms of court by an effort to have it tried at Dead wood instead of Sioux Falls, and the case was not presented to the jury until September 4. The Court was prompt in overruling the de- fendant's demurrer attacking the constitutionality of the grazing regulations, and in reaching de- cislon the jury was only out fifteen minutes.
