$1,000 men of arms today
marched past the massed repre-

Although there were tremen-

applause in overwhelming vol

WILL THE SEABOARD
ABSORB THE @. F. AND A?

/ seems that this is not to be the case,
and the G. F. and A will connect
with the S. A. L. before ii reaches
Richland. This is given on the word
! of a gentleman who IS connected
with the road, who said in answer
10 question that trains of the G. F.
and A. would be running into Co.
lumbus by September, at least, if
the work of building the seventeen
miles OF ROAD from Cuthbert was not
delayed
The fact that the G. F. and a. will
not come TO Richland indicates a con-
siderable change in the situation.
At this time the Sea board Air
Line is in the hands of a receiver,
but that does not necessarily keep
that road from acquiring connecting
roads like the G. F. and A, and as
the Seaboard has no outlet at pres
ent on the gulf coast the acquisition
of the G. r. and A. would give them
one at Cara belle. And if the S. A.
L. absorbs the G. F. and A. Cara
belle harbor is sure 10 be made a

RAINS GREATLY DAMAGE CROPS
Farmers Report That Production Has
Been Cut Down.

Reports of travelling men covering
some fifty counties in south and
southwest Georgia are to the effect
that cotton has been greatly damaged
by the continued rains of the past
ten days, and much of the fruit is
dropping. Many planters contend
that the production has been cut
down % per cent. as a result of re-
cent weather conditions.
1t is feared now that an EXTREMITY
hot and dry spell may come on top
of the heavy rains through this en-
tire territory and greatly increase the
damage to the crops. The outlook
in the Dawson district is still claimed
to be the best in the state.

ROOST ON CARS

tra!nmen, apparently more than 100
in number, can be seen standing on
top of the coaches to keep out of the
water. 1t is estimated that there
were 500 persons on the train. The
rescue work is being carried on by
means of boats.
A relief train was sent from Otta-
wa tonight with food and other sup
plies for the sleeping car passengers.
Even the City Threatened.
In Kansas City the situation is
threatening, if not yet serious. In
the bottoms in the western section,
where are situated the stock yards,
wholesale warehouses and manufact-
uring plants, the waters from the
confluence OF the Missouri and Kan
sas rivers tonight are tapping the
danger line, and precautions were
taken against a further rise.
At Chillicothe, Mo, on the Grand
river, six men were swept from a
bridge today. Whether they reached
land safely was not learned. Hun
dreds of people at Chillicothe were
forced to leave their homes, Resi-
dents in the unaffected quarters have
started to bake bread for the suf-
ferers, and a relief train, loaded
with supplies, was sent from other
points.
The relief train carries a number
OF boats to be used in the work Of
rescue.
In the valley above and below

stock drowned and people in the
country driven to the roofs of theil
houses, and some to tree tops. Sew

would have made him rich through
their efforts if the pleasant conditions
could have continued for a few years,

and after her departure the COWS
moped and refused to give much
milk.
The accidental introduction of the
photograph at the farmhouse gave
Smith a hint as to its advantages as
substitute for the songs of the
tuneful dairymaid, and now the
COWS are in fair way to become
heavy milk producers as of yore.

Death and Great Damage by Inun-

KANSAS CITY.-Swollen by un-
precedented rains Missouri valley
rivers today left their banks and
caused damaging foods in many parts
Of Missouri and Kansas. Several
deaths by drowning are reported.
The most spectacular accident due

flooded plain of the Atkinson, To-

bound from Kansas City to Denver.
The rails spread near Pomona, Kan,
and four Of the ten coaches rolled
over ia Is feet of water.
The train, which usually runs over
the main line, had been routed over
the EmpOTia cutoff on account of
high water on the main line. Little
better conditions were found on the
cutoff, however, last nights terrific
rains having sent the Mara!s des
Cynes river higher tnan ever before

moving at the time of the accident.
The river is three miles wide here.

About half a mile from here there
