With larger number of automo-

seeing SO many in small city.
But there will be others, and Am

Georgia just as Atlanta aud Savannah
now are Tor their respective sections
of the state.
Several agencies are represented
here, the Maxwell predominating.
Mr. John w Sheffield represents
the Maxwell car, and its we'll tested
popularity has induced him to order
quite number of other cars which
are now in transit In fact two solid
carloads of Maxwells are now en-
route to Americus
Mr.. Sheffield has the agency for
ten counties for the sale of the Max
we'll car, and will soon show fine
line of them here.
Mr.. Sheffield will leave in day or
two for the East, and while in the
larger cities will purchase such other
machines as he may fancy He will
spend several days in New York,
Boston and the large cites, devoting
all of the time to automobiles
The two carloads of Maxwells al
ready ordered will constitute whole
train of cars in themselves when
steamed up for service.

TORCH IS CARRIED BY
RIDERS ON WAR PATH
Nearly Score of Buildings
in Flames.

Below Americus, in Early and Ba-
ker counties, night riders have ap-
piled the torch to 13 negro churches
and schools. Beginning about three
miles east of Kestler in Early county
the night riders, who are supposed to
have been white men residing in that
immediate section, moved east to
Notchaway Greek in Baker county.
When they reached the creek they
turned south to the Miller county line
Nearly all the negro schools and
churches in this wide territory were
burned, and the whole country was
lighted up with the many fires.
Following is a list of the schools
and churches that were burned as far
as could be obtained: Mt. Zion Church
and school house, Little Zion Church
and school house. Christs church and
school, Pleasant Hill Church and
school, New Salem Church and school
house,
The membership of the last named
church is made up of the most prom
inent negroes residing in that sec
ton. They own their own houses and
enjoy a reputation for sobriety, relia-
bility and industry They are almost
to a man abiding citizen, and it
is difficult to discover motive for
burning their church and school,
All classes of negroes in that vicin-
ity are very much disturbed over
this latest outrage, and naturally en-
tertain grave apprehension for the
safety of their homes and other pro-
perty. There appears to be no clue
to the identity of the night riders.

R. T. Christian, Jr., who, it ts

eral court at Asheville, n c., some
time later. Mr. Christian is con-
tractor and lives at Leesburg. 1t is
said that he had been previously ar
rested in this case and had given bond
to appear July 6, in Asheville, but did
not appear, and claims to have sent
a doctors certificate of illness. Wheth-
er or not the bond was forfeited is
not known, but his four bondsmen at
Leesburg, it is stated, declined to
renew the bond and he was subse-
quently arrested in Americus upon
the former charge.

SUPPLY OF COAL GIVEN

Local Dealers Are Generous
Therein.

With every Americus coal dealer a
generous contributor, the bin Of the
hospital holds a supply sufficient to
last through the better part of the
winter season, or at least until Janu-
airy. This generosity upon the part
of local dealers was manifested yes
terday in an appeal made by a COM

board, every dealer generously con-
tributing a ton of coal to this splen-

agement of the ladies', who have en-

the great work done there for two
or three years continues on, and in

Independence Ticket.

Yancy Carter, candidate for Gov

could be learned yesterday, no spec

his coming Elector c. H. Evans, was
not informed of the proposed speak
ing, but this is probably accounted
for by the fact that Mr. Evans will
support Joe Brown in the Governor

a member of the Legislature, and was

tics.
While Mr.. Garter is not likely tc

is red letter day. On that day this
year the names were put on the Fed
eral governments payroll, or the

tie more money in their pay en-
velope.
1t is known that 35,O57 post office
clerks and carriers got an increase
of pay amounting to an average of
$40 a month. 1t is also known that
1879 persons wer put on the day
roll. When Congress provided the
1879 new places, it made provision
for the possible employment of 10,

COT TON EXCHANGE
HAS BEEN CLOSED
Cotton Men Change Plan
of Setting Reports.

On yesterday the Americus Cotton
Exchange was closed up, and today
the warehousemen and buyers will
get their reports direct from the
Western Union.
The reason for shutting the Ex-
change was that the expenses were
so high as to be a burden on those
who We're members. Under the
new plan each cotton man who sub
scribes to the service of the tele-
graph company will receive slips
direct from the office.
- Reports will be received every fif-
teen minutes from the New York
market, with the opening and closing
of Liverpool The Exchange took the
New York market every minute or
less time While this was a conven-
fence at times, it is .belieyed that the
l5-minute quotations will serve all
practical purposes.
Manager Jas l.. Williams. who
has been in charge of tho Exchange
has accepted a position on tn ri St

Following the decision to close the
cotton exchange, Manager Legg, OF

little while, secured a bunch OF
subscribers to the service of his
company An assistant will be de-
tailed to the Office to look after the

PUTTING ON TRAIN FOR

i've Then.

General Passenger Agent J. c.
Halle of the Central Railway, and Mr..
John w. Blount, travelling passenger
agent, were in Americus yesterday for
a short while, going hence to AL
bany.. Their visit to an extent is to
prepare for the new train service over
this division on October 18th, when
the Chicago Florida fast tourist train
service will be put on. This service,
besides giving fine Western connec-
tions, affords an additional first class
train between Columbus, Americus
and Albany, which is to be apprecia-
ted The train south leaves Americus
about midnight, reaching Albany
forty minutes later and Jacksonville
at Z o'clock, a. m. When this service
is inaugurated it is quite possible that
the schedules now in operation on
this division of the Central may be
re-arranged to some extent.

YIELD OF PECANS WILL
BE BEST IN YEARS
Orchards in AmeriCuS Yield
ing Well.

Mr. H. w Smithwick exhibited yes
terday samples of pecans taken from
his large grove in the western su-
burbs of Americus and the nuts, for
size and quality, will rival any grown
in the Brazos River bottoms of Texas
or the famed groves of Louisiana.
The nuts are well formed, of fine
size, and attracted much attention
among those who appreciate the
value of such-a crop.
Mr. Smithwick has an orchard Of
five hundred trees, two, three ana
four years of age, and many of these
are yielding just few nuts this
year for the first time.
This orchard is given the closest
attention and care and in a few years
will prove yeritable gold mine, as
such fruit as produced there brings
fancy prices in the north, often as
much as 81 per pound among the
confectioners.
The yield of an entire orchard in
south Georgia sold Monday at the
round price of so cents and will be
used largely in the manufacture of
high grade candies
Mr.. Smithwick bestows the great
est care upon his orchard here and
expects fine results eventually.
The grove on Miss Pickett's farm
just west of the city, while not a
large one contains many fine trees
and all are heavily fruited this year.
These nuts are of fine quality, and
will net the owner a sung sum when
gathered and sold.
The Hansford orchard here has not
yet come into full Gearing. 1t, too
contains many fine II ees and even
tually will yield thousands of dollars
annually.
