AT ALTAR OF FLOWERS
NUPTIAL KNOT IS TIED.
Church Wedding a Beauti-
full One.

About no recent wedding has more
interest centered than that of Miss
Julia Clotilde Littlejohn and DR.. ]. r.
Hair, which was solemnized yesterday
at high noon. The sweetness and
beauty of the gentle bride, who is the
beloved daughter of Judge and Mrs.
Zera A Littlejohn, and the wide fam
lily and social connection in this and
other places has made the event one
of much prominence and note.
The chancel of the beautiful Meth
odist church was banked with stately
palms and ferns, and along the rail Of
the organ loft above Southern smilax
was gracefully entwined.
Prof. Ellis Mcneil rendered a de-
lightful musical program prior to the
arrival Of the wedding party, and the
tender love song. II Love You Truly,
Dear" was sweetly sung by Miss
Buchanan and Mr.. Poole.
Then, as the organ pealed forth the
ever beautiful and thrilling wedding
march from Mendelssohn, the fair
bride, attired in a most becoming tail
ored suit of ashes of roses broad
cloth, with hat to match, and carrying
a shower bouquet of bride roses tied
with white gauze, came slowly down
to the altar, accompanied by her
maid of honor, Miss Carter of Rich
land
Miss Carter was gowned in a gold
crepe meteor, with gold trimmin IS
and wore big black picture hat. She
carried an armful of golden chrysan-
themums tied with chiffon. At the
chancel they were met by the groom
and his best man, Mr.. Frank Merritt
DR.. Anthony, in the solemn and i'm
pressive ritual, of the church, pro-
nounced them husband and wife, in
voking heavens richest blessings upon
the welded pair.
To the jubilant bridal chorus from
Lohengrin, the party passed from the
church and were driven directly To
the Seaboard station, where they took
the train to Florida.
The ushers were Messrs. A. c.
Crockett, c. c. Crockett, Harris Coun-
Gil and J. J. Hogue.
Many out-of-town friends witnessed
the marriage of this popular couple
Among them were Misses Mary Little
john, Chicora College; Annie Claire
Sapp and Mr.. Amos Sapp, and Mr.
Beverly Biggers, Columbus; Mrs. ]
P. Galloway, Leesburg; Mrs. w. T
Hughes, Statesboro; Mrs. Hubert Mar
shall, Cordele; Mrs. Charles Murray
Fitzgerald.
A magnificent array of wedding
gifts were received by the bride and
groom, attesting the esteem in which
they are held among a host of admir-
ing friends.

WHY SALVES FAIL
TO CURE ECZESA.
They Clog the POreS-Only Liquid
Can Reach the Inner Skin.

Since the oldfashioned theory of
curing eczema through the blood has
been given up by scientists, many
different salves have been tried for
skin diseases. But it has been found
that these sa1ves only clog the pores
and can not penetrate to the inner
skin below the epidermis where the
eczema germs are lodged.
Thistle quality of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous
success of the only standard liquid
eczema cure, oil of wintergreen as
compounded in D. D. D. Prescription.
After ten years of cure after cure, the
worlds leading skin specialists have
accepted this as the true eczema cure.
We ourselves do not hesitate to
recommend D. D. D. Prescription at
$1.00 bottle, but for the benefit of
those who have never tried the pre-
scription, we arranged with the D. D.
D. Laboratories of Chicago for a spe-
cial large trial bottle at % cents on
a special offer now. This first bottle
ought to convince every sufferer, and,
at any rate, it will surely take away
the itch at once. Dodson's Pharmacy.

BARRELS ARE BOUGHT IN
OTHER CITIES, OF COURSE
Could Be Made in Americas, But
They Are Not.

Could Be Made in Americas, But
They Are Not.
A pyramid of new syrup barrels
piled in front of an Americas store
yesterday induced the inquiry as to
where they were made, the cost, etc.
AS expected, the reply was that the
barrels were made in a prosperous
manufacturing town within two hours
ride of Americus-a town that has
grown rich and prosperous-both in
wealth and population wholly from it's
multitudinous manufacturing plants.
OF course the barrels might have been
made in Americas, but for the inclina-
ton ever manifested here to buy
everything elsewhere, rather than
make it. The same labor is here; the
swamps hereabout are filled with the
same variety of timber used in barrel
making, but the enterprise, the pro-
gressive spirit, is sadly lacking. And
the same conditions obtain in all lines
of industry-the barrel proposition
beoing mentioned merely as one Incl
dent in scores of others. We will
continue to buy barrels, and every
thing else and pay for 1t out of "cot-
ton money" the only backing Ameri-
Gus has.

WAS WELL PLEASED WITH
AMERICUS AND SUMTER.
West Virginia Wholesaler Delighted
With City and County.

Mr.. R. G. Hubbard of Charleston,
W. Va, one of the leading wholesale
grocers of that state, spent yesterday
in Americas. While here he toured
the city and considerable of the coun-
try round about. Mr. Hubbard was
especially pleased with the aspects of
the residence section of Americas,
charmed with its many attractive
homes and its well kept streets, and
the general appearance of prosperity
on every side. The evidences of rich
agricultural development in the coun-
try also attracted his attention and
awakened his interest. While in the
city Mr.. Hubbard called on President
Lanier of the Americas Grocery Co.
and President Glover of the Glover
Grocery Co., and was shown through
their warehouses. Mr.. Hubbard was
satisfied that the needs of this sec
ton are we'll handled by these two
enterprising houses.
Mr.. James Montgomery, formerly q
we'll known resident of Americas, is
now a resident Of Charleston, and is
we'll known by Mr.. Hubbard, who re-
ports him well established in his West
Virginia home and enjoying a wide
circle of friends.

RETURN FROM EXTENDED AND
DELIGHTFUL TRIP ABROAD.
Eighteen Months Are Pleasantly Spent
In European Travel.

Social Americas welcomed the re-
turn home yesterday of Misses Anna
and Elizabeth Harold after an ex-
tended stay of nearly two years IN
Europe. The young ladies left Ameri-
Gus in April, 1908, and since have
travelled extensively in almost every
country of continental Europe, and
in England, Scotland and Ireland. The
past summer was delightfully."- passed
in the Tyrolean Alps and in Germany.
Their many friends here unite in ex-
tending them welcome home.

RELIEF FOR SUFFERERS
Congress Appropriates a Large
Sum for italians.

Washington, Jan. 4. - President
Roosevelt, in a message to congress,
asked for a direct appropriation of
100000 for the relief of the stricken
people in the earthquake zone of It.
ally. This, the most generous fund
ever contributed by the American peo-
pie for succor of sufferers in other
lands, is to supplement the dispatch
of the supply ships Celtic from New
York and the Culgoa from Port Said
for Messina with their big cargoes of
necessaries, originally intended for
the American feet diverted to the i'm
mediate use of the Italian victims. L
also supplements the presidents prof
fer of the services of the entire Amer
lean feet of sixteen battleships, whose
use, in whole or in part, hinged only
on the acceptance or declination of
the italian government. The message
was brief and both houses immedi-
ately enacted into law the recommen-
dations made.

TYPHOID FEVER AT MESSINA
Authorities Fear Serious Epidemic
May Occur.

Rome, Jan. 6.-The report from
Messina that typhoid fever has bro
ken out there has filled the authors
ties with alarm and apprehension. 1t
is realized here that unless proper
sanitary precautions are taken at once
the disease may spread far outside the
ruined districts. Even though the
present cases may prove to be dysen-
terry, it is well known that this dis
ease under such conditions as prevail
at Messina and Reggie would be like
~ to prove just as fatal as typhoid
itself. According to well known
medical authorities, it is the latter
disease that has been responsible for
the defamation of almost whole armies
in time of war and the existing cause
is unwholesome drinking water and
the ingestion of articles unfit for
food. Physicians here are inclined to
think that dysentery is more to be
feared than any other disease in the
devastated regions. 1t was very fatal
in the Crimea in 1854; in the armies
of the United States during the Civil
war, and again in the Franco-G German
war Of 1870. Almost perfect condi-
lions prevail for its propagation at

Northern Minnesota to Be the
Scene Of Activities.
WISCONSIN men BEHIND PLAN
Propose to Bring in Settlers to
Occupy the Land.

A thorough and comprehensive
scheme for the development of the
dairy industry of Eastern Clearwater
and Northern Beltrami counties will
soon be taken up by Wisconsin cor
poraton which has become interested
i'm 10000 acres in that section of the
state, according to the statement of
Roger c. Spooner, brother of former
United States Senator John Spooner
of Wisconsin.
Mr. Spooner says that Professor
Moore of the Wisconsin school of
agriculture, with other practical dairy
men ri Wisconsin, has become deeply
interested in the possibilities OF that
part of Northern Minnesota as dairy
country and will soon begin the work
of practical development.
Professor Moore and other Wiscon-
sin men have thoroughly tested the
soil and are convinced that there is
nothing that can prevent the plan
from resulting in great good to the
northern part of the state.
The plan of the Wisconsin company
is to bring in settlers. So far as pos
sible men who are acquainted with
the practical side of dairying will be
taken to the land of the Wisconsin
company 1t is probable that many
students from the Wisconsin school
of agriculture will be taken to the
Northern Sc>tion of the state for the
purpose of "rGing the movement un-
der the best i.n55ible conditions.

BRITISH TROOPS INTERVENE
Religious Riots in India Take More
Serious Turn.

Calcutta, Jan. 5.--The religious
riots between Mohammedans and Hin
dus have taken more serious turn
again, requiring the active interyen-
ton of British troops at Titaghur,
who fired upon the Hindu mob.
The Hindus had resumed the at
tacks of two previous days on the
mosque at Titaghur because the Mo
hammedans had sacrificed COWS. The
Hindus destroyed the sacred furniture
in the mosque and partially demol-
ished the walls. Inflamed Mohamme-
dams gathered to the defense of the
mosque and were subsequently sur
rounded by military GORDON which
formed barrier between the Moham-
medans and the Hindu rioters, who
assaulted the military in an endeavor
to come to close quarters with the Mo,
hammedans.
