Americus yesterday gave the ware
houses here a total of sixteen bales
to date. Of the seven brought III
yesterday four were stored at l..
G. Councils, one at the Parker ware
house, and two at the Chambliss Co.
The receipts would have been much
greater was there any demand for
the staple just now
One farmer reported that he had
picked out seven bales, while an
other had five in his ginhouse, but
with the market dragging they did
not bring them in.
1t is true that safes are slow a..
yet, many buyers still being out of
the market, while the poor demand
for new cotton has put the price
below te ncents. And at that figure
no farmer will sell cotton unless he
is forced
On this date last year, August 9th,
Americus received it's first new bale,
whereas sixteen bales are in market
this season at the same date, evil
dencing an earlier movement of the
crop. Cotton is opening rapidly in
this section
1t would not be surprising at all
if Americus received 200 or even
300 bales this week.

839 NAMES OF JURORS
PLACED IN JURY BOX
Commission Has Finished
Its Long Task.

The jury commissioners completed
Saturday the biennial revision of the
jury lists of Sumter, and the boxes
as made up for the next two years
are now in readiness The new lists
contain the names of 227 grand jur-
ors, or rather those subject to be
drawn as such, and 839 travers jur-
ors for service in the superior and
city courts The work of revision
consumed just one week, and was
done with care and thoroughness
The jury box contains few more
names now than at the last revision
two years ago. Before adjourning the
jury commissioners drew from the
two boxes the grand jury which will
serve at the next November term
of court, and also the travers jurors
for the first two weeks of the term,
both in the superior and city courts.
Clerk Allen has the completed jury
lists, and anyone imbued with cur
iosity can readily ascertain whether
his name was put in the jury box by
the commission

the large cannery in Americus and
that operated upon the farm of the
Ware Orchard Co. Capt. Cobb was

COTTON HAS SUFFERED
SHARP DETERIORATION
In Week S Time Black Root
and Shedding Get in Work.

Sumter's cotton crop is seriously
menaced.
From all sides come complaints of
scalding, shedding, and the black
root In almost a night the change
came from prospects of flattering
crop, fully up to the best, to an
Indifferent yield. with good chance
for still further slump.
A week ago cotton growers were
looking with complacency on green
fields and bursting blooms, dreaming
of the fine crop which was fore
shadowed by such almost ideal con-
ditions. But in few days a shadow
has fallen athwart the visions of
oceans of fleecy staple to be picked
by nimble fingers.
AS an illustration of the darkness
of the picture, one large farmer who
was in Americus yesterday stated
that his crop he regarded as a prac-
tical failure. Others reported a de-
terioration in the last week of from
25 to 80 per cent.
AS is so often the case, just at the
critical time in the maturing of the
cotton boil unfayorable weather con-
ditions have intervened, and have
put the promised full yield to the bad
Copious rains up to two weeks ago
were followed by hot weather, and
this has almost burned up the stalks.
The plant is in many instances prac-
tically dead and the few bolls which
have been forced to a premature mat
urity will be about all that is to be
gathered.

CITIZEN is HELD ON
CHARGt OF LARCENY
Surprise at His Arrest is
Created.

Wanted upon the charge of petty
larceny, the alleged theft of two sacks
corn and oats, white man engaged
in business here and whose name is
suppressed at the earnest request Of
friends, was taken in custody yes
terday morning.
The arrest was made by Police Of
ficers Ross and Cloud and the pris-
oner delivered to the sheriff who, up
on failure to give bond in the sum of
$500, locked him up
At late hour in the afternoon
bond was furnished and the prisoner
released.
The citizen is charged with pet
ty larceny in the alleged theft of
two sacks of corn and oats which
were taken from the pavement in
front of Poole & Sons grocery store
in the early morning hours.
These sacks, it is alleged, were
found later in a nearby stable.
Frequent thefts of late had in
duced Poole & Sons to institute a
watch upon their goods, and two po-
lice officers concealed near the
courthouse saw man approach the
place about a. M, shoulder sack
of corn and depart
The officers did nothing more at
tbe time than nOta tho oct T,l,a
matter was reported to Chief Feagin
later in the morning.
When taken to the barracks the
accused was shown the sacks talk
en- from the barn, both of which bore
a secret mark placed upon them by
Poole & Sons. His bond was assess
ed by Justice Hudson at $500 each
in two cases.
In his cell at the Jail the prisoner,
it is said, made statement to Sheriff
Bell, expressing deep regret at the
affair.
1t is the custom of Poole & Sons
to leave corn, oats, hay, etc, some
times as much as a carload, in front
of their store over night, as an cleo
trio light at the courthouse corner
is but fifty feet away Recently their
losses have been large.
Suspicion was directed at no one,
and the affair yesterday was as much
a surprise to them as to the public.

Surprised at Conditions

No resident of Americus keeps a
closer watch on the cotton crop than
does Mr. Lee Council, banker and
warehouseman Mr. Council was out
of the city for a few days early last
week, and when he returned he took
a drive in fast automobile over
Sumter county and down to his plan
tation in Lee.
Il was much surprised at what
saw, said Mr. Council yesterday. "In
many sections the plant is scalding
and shedding. Too much moisture
has been followed by hot sun. In
many places black root and blight
had got in their work, and it looked
as if lightning had struck the stalks,
whitening and blasting them.
