Albany fell down and fell down
mighty badly, on its game with the
Americus club on the local diamond
yesterday.
By a score of II to the visitors were
put to sleep, with an inning yet to the
credit of the home team.
If the full nine innings had been
played score of 20 to s would prob
ably have been the result
There was good crowd of specta-
tors, and much Disappointment was ex-
pressed at the poor showing made by
the visitors. The local players, find
ing they had quite an easy mark,
naturally did not put forth their best
efforts. They really didn't want to
crush the visitors too badly.
To the credit of Albany, though it
can be said that it did not send over
the same aggregation of bat and ball
artists that has twice defeated Ameri-
Gus, or rather once defeated it and
once gothic game on umpire's decis on
1t sent over some substitutes who
were poor articles in comparison with

COMMISSION IN A LONG
AND BUSY SESSION.
County Changing is ReOr-
gdnized.
NEW SUPERINTENDENT SELECTED
And Entire Charge of the Chaingang
viii Be Given Him--New Regime
Will Be Entered Into
Shortly.
NEW SUPERINTENDENT SELECTED

I The Sumter county chaingang will
be entirely reorganized, a former
superintendent will be put in entire
charge, and new condition of affairs
launched. Such was the result of the
meeting of the county commissioners
yesterday morning.
In fact, the session lasted through
ont the entire day and was one of the
most important held recently by the
commissioners.
Only the chaingang system and con-
ditions surrounding it were discussed g,
and the commissioners went in with a
determination to again put it upon a
solid basis.
The alarming number of escapes
from the gang recently, together with
the investigation ofalleged cruel whip
ping of convicts made six weeks ag O
and resulting in promise to institute
reforms, was the incentive behind the
meeting yesterday.
The result of the lengthy deliberati on
of the commissioners was the employ
ment of a superintendent of wide ex-
perience, who will have compile te
authority in the employment of guards
and enforcing rules Full announce
ment of the proceedings will come
later.
Just now tits sufficient to say that the
gang will be reorganized, the escape
of convicts stopped and high stand
a ID maintained in the operation of the
chaingang here.

WORK OF THE WOODMEN.
Charges Made By the Sovereign
Camp, Now In Session,

Americus members of the Woodmen
of the World are much interested in the
reports from the sovereign camp, now
in session at Norfolk,
The sovereign camp has decided to
abandon the use of bronze tablets upon
monuments to deceased mem bers.
The inscriptions must hereafter be cut
directly into the stone. This has
been done in Americus. There is one
monument to Mr.. Ivey, of Plains, in
the cemetery, and it has been carved,
and the one now being prepared for
the late Mr.. Horne will also haye the
incription carved upon it.
The sovereign camp has also ruled
that barkeepers must not be admitted
to the order. TIE local Woodmen
state tn at there are no bar keepers in
the Americas camp. Members of fire
who have heretofore been
in a special shazardous class have now
been taken from it and put in a pre-
ferred class.

returning, as first reported here, al
though he did seize gun and go in
pursuit of Jim Bell, Bill Frazier, Gus
Nelson and George Harris, the four
aces who escaped, but failed, in effort
to catch up with them. Ten of the
fourteen escaping eonvicts ran only
short distance before turning about
and returning to camp of their own
accord. One or two of the men guard
ing the convicts at the time were green

age, SO that, if they desire it, they may
go there and take only the agricultural
course.
There are a great many young men
oven Is years of age who will be able
to spend only one year, or two years at
most, at the agricultural school where
as the cirriculum is to cover period of
four years. It Will be their object to
learn all they can within that time
about the practical and scientific side
of farming. They should be allowed,
therefore, if they wish it, to devote all
of their time to this end.
1t is for this reason that the farmers
ask the committee to make literary
feature optional with those over Is
years of age.
