ness.

Despite the oft-repeated assertions
of the telegraph companies that bus
mess conditions are wholly satisfac-
tory" they are far from satisfactory
in Americus, where the effect of the
telegraphers strike is felt as greatly
as in the beginning ten days ago.
Both offices here continue bottled
up, and no business of any nature is
transacted there.
Americus continues to depend en-
tirely upon the long distance tele-
phone for the transmission of busi-
ness, and finds it a first class medi-
um, by the way. The telephone sery-
ice is prompt and reliable.
The mails, too, facilitate business in
handling kilograms, as the lines are
open from all over the country as far
south as Macon, from which point
kilograms are mailed here.
In cotton circles the hope is ex-
pressed that telegraphic communica-
tion will soon be resumed, as cotton
quotations will soon be in great de-
mand, and continuance of the strike
will hamper business to considerable
extent, here and elsewhere.
The strike situation yesterday was

FARMERS GOING TO MEETING
Of District Institute to Be Held at EIIdviIIe
Official Program of Occasion on Friday. 3Ohne Occasion is
Assured

The Farmers Institute of the Thir-
teenth senatorial district, comprising
Sumter, Schley and Macon counties,
will be held on Friday of next week,
August Both at Ellayille, and will be
an occasion of much interest and inn
portance to all attending.
Many farmers of Sumter and the
other counties as well will attend
the Institute, lasting one day.
Aside from the interesting addresses
and other convention proceedings, the
citizens of Schley will, with proverbial
hospitality, provide royal entertain
ment for the visitors.
That all may attend conveniently,
the Central Railway will be requested
to send up a special train from Ameri-
Gus on the morning of that date, re-
turning in the afternoon. 1t has been
suggested that the yard engine here
might thus be utilized.
Captain John A. Cobb of Americus,
is president of the Institute, Mr.
Thomas B. Hooks one of the vice.
presidents, and Mr. Crawford Wheat
ley secretary for Sumter county.
Following is the official program
arranged for the meeting:
Open at 10 a. m. at the Courthouse,

New York, August 20.-E. ]. Nally
vice president and general manager OF

panys system this morning where
we are not giving good service, and
where we are not prepared to give

the Postal Telegraph Cable Company
is concerned, the strike is over.
R. E. Ciowry, president and gen
eral manager of the Western Union,
said today:
"The Western Union Company's
force of operators is sufficient to han
die its traffic with little or no delay.
In fact, it can be said that normal
conditions have been resumed. The
telegraphers' strike altogether is a
thing of the past"

TILING is GOING TO
BE LAID ON AVENUE
Property Owners Agree to Use
This Material.

The west side of Cotton avenue,
from the Wheatley corner to Parker's
Warehouse, is now receiving atten-
tion at the rands of the street de
partment. Yesterday the granite
curbing work upon that side was
completed, and the new pavement to
be put down in lieu of the brickbats
will be of concrete tiling. II is un-
derstood that all property owners up
on that side have agreed upon tiling
as the best and most desirable mater
ial, as well as the cheapest, and the
new walk will be tiled its entire
length. And now that street work
upon Cotton avenue is begun, several
hundred citizens are waiting with in
terest to see what will be done with
the line of rotten wood sheds that
now disfgure the street and, many q
them, menace to pedestrians g,

CITY MAY DEMAND A
PART OF THE SUGAR
In Levying a License Tax
on Clubs
STATE WILL NOT GET WHOLE PIE
Deficit in City Treasury. Caused By
Loss of Saloon Tax May Be
Made Up in Part by Tax
on the Clubs.
STATE WILL NOT GET WHOLE PIE

While Americus is going to have
her "Dewdrop Clubs" in conformity
with the Wright bill, it may cost a
trifle more to operate them than
would be supposed at first blush. For
the city may take a hand in the tax
levying process.
The tax of $500 to be paid under
the provisions of the locker bill of
Uncle Seaborn, he of juicy, liquid
memory, goes to the State, to help
the very badly depleted treasury.
Not a penny of that $500 does the
city receive.
Americus will lose $4,000 next year
by the closing of the saloons and
loss of the special license tax, and
this may, to limited extent, be made
up by special license tax imposed
upon the Seabaceous clubs, the Dew
drops.
The city council, in January, will
determine this point
The question vi social clubs will
have to be dealt with by the cities
The way the people go about the or
ganization of these clubs means much
to the failure or success of prohibit
ton in this state.
1t is not known now how many
clubs will be formed here, nor is it
known what action council will take
on the matter. 1t is up to the cities
to do the best thing possible to help
/ enforce the law now that it has been
passed by the legislature and has re-
! ceived official sanction.
A number of social clubs paying
a tax of $500 will bring a good deal
or revenue to the state.
Many are of the opinion that the
| law will allow social clubs to keep
whiskey in their lockers without any
special tax 1t is said in some of
the cities of the state that the people
are willing to pay a very high license
for the privilege of doing a locker
| business.
Clubs of all kinds will be formed,
it is supposed-clubs for the rich, the
poor, the well-to-do, the middle class,
the white man and the black man.
The question of allowing social
clubs to do a locker business will
have to be taken up and discussed by
council. The state tax is $500, and
if the cities put on an additional tax,
there will still be large number
who are willing to pay this license.
This would take the place of the
income from the liquor license.

From Church to Missions.

AS the oil king grew in fortune he
gradually became a dominant figure
in the Baptist denomination through
out the United States and gave sys-
tematically to the Oundation and
maintenance of Baptist churches
throughout the length and breadth
of the country. He early became in
terested in the working church
scheme, and under the guidance OF
DR.. Judson, of this city, and others
Invested" largely in the new idea.
The working church" it was ex-
planned to him, would solve the in
difference of the masses in the great
cities toward the cause of religion.
From church work to mission work
was but step, and as Mr.. Rockefel-
Ter grew interested, first in foreign
and then in domestic missions, he
gave up millions for these two causes.
In mission work as in church work,
he at first restricted his outpourings
in the Baptists. Little by little
though, he was drawn toward the
Congregationalists, until now he is
open to the appeals of mission work
in any and all denominations.

BANK BOOKS IN BAD SHAPE
GROSSLY Inaccurate, Said Examiners Stockholders to
Be Assessed
Be Assessed.

MACON, August 20-The final re-
port of expert accountants to Receivers
T. N. Baker, b. P. O'Neal and E. d.
Schofield of the Exchange Bank of
Macon reveal all the capital stock
and surplus, which together amount
ed to $65O,000, has ben swept away,
and there is a deficit of $500.
The books of the bank were said to
have been the most inaccurately kept
ever handled by the expert account
ants.
There was a difference between the
final report and the temporary report
thirty days ago amounting to more
than 100000. This, it is said, was
due to the great inaccuracies in the
accounts as kept by the officials of the
bank
The final report will be made to the
Superior Court by the receivers to-
morrow, and the effort will be made
to have the temporary receivers made

permanent.
The affairs of the bank will be
wound up as rapidly as possible. The
depositors will get all their funds,
and according to best estimates there
will be a small assessment upon the
stockholders.
Figures said by expert accountants
to be accurate reveal that there was a
shortage in the accounts of former
Cashier Orr amounting to $94,0S0,9S.
This much was found in the books
since 1900, and the accountants say
that the loss of Orr's books from Sep
tember, 1905, to January 1907, blocked
them in determining what other
amounts there might be.
Orr delivered up all his possessions
consisting of farms in the northern
portion of the county, amounting in
value to nearly $4,000, but there is
still the shortage which has been re-
ported. y

BILLION DOLLARS
MADE BY OIL KING
Said He Would Give Away
One Tenth Of Earnings
HAS GIVEN AWAY SIOO,OOO,OOO
But, Friends Point Out, Rockefeller
Has Made No Attempt TO Parade
His ChdritieS--Where His Great
Donations Have Been Placed.
HAS GIVEN AWAY SIOO,OOO,OOO

NEW YORK, August 20-John d.
Rockefeller, upon whose oil monopoly
the United States Government has
just laid a penaly of $29,24O,OOO for
violations of the law aginst rebates,
has given away, up to the present
time, more than 800, 100000, for
public good"--to churches, schools
hospitals, asylums and missions.
| In an address some years ago be-
fore a Cleveland religious gathering
of his own Baptist faith, Mr. Rookie
feller told the story of his early strug
giles. He said he had always followed
the Scripture rule adopted by him
when poor clerk, of giving one
tenth of his earnings to charity. Ac
cepting this statement as true, it fol-
lows from simple mathematical
calculation that the oil king has
made during his business career at
least $1,000000,000 in order to have
given away $10O,O0O,OOO, unless, per-
chance in an excess of zeal for the
public veal, he has trespassed on his
capital.
1t is the general testimony of those
who have been brought in close con-
tact with Mr.. Rockefeller that he has
likewise followed more closely than
the ordinary public benefactor that
| other Scripture maxim in regard to
the right and left hand in the act of
giving.
i, He has never, so far as known,
handed out a list of his donations, al
though it is said that such list has
been compiled by one of his secretar-
les and is now in the inner achives
of the General Educational Board.
Four Great Forms of Charity.
Personal gifts and annuities and
strictly private charities do not appear
on this list, Notwithstanding they
are said to have absorbed in the aggre-
gate about $1O,O00,0OO of the Rookie
feller accumulations. John D. Rock
efel1er's charity has assumed four
great forms of expression:
Church and mission work; $15,000,
600; general and Southern education
boards, $44,000,000; University of
Chicago, $22,OOO,0OO Private gifts
to schools, individuals, churches, parks
hospitals, societies and reformatory
and benevolent institutions have alb
sorbed the rest of the $10O,O0O,00O.
During the first quarter century of
his business career, Mr.. Rockefeller's
charities did not exceed beyond chur
ches and Missionary work. He began
his activity in that direction in Cleve-
land, where he gradually built up,
in conjunction with other rich Bap
lists, a splendidly equipped church
and parish. He has always consider
ed Cleveland his home city, and has
given large amounts to nearly every
one of the publicly-supported institu-
tions there, including the parks in his
donations. He is also credited with
having dispensed a large amount of
private charity in the Queen City of
the lake.
