On Tuesday, Mr.. and Mrs.
James Lynch accompanied the
remains of their beloved
daugl ter, Gladys, from Gran
vile to Wyndmere and their
home. They were met at the
depot by delegation of Odd
Fellows and large number of
citizens and sympathizing
friends.
The present week has been
as sad and sympathetic time
az there has ever been in the
history of Wyndmere. On
Monday morning az men went
out to begin their work they
were shocked to hear that one
or two hours earlier Mr.. Ern-
est Springer had passed to the
great beyond. A little later in
telligence came that at about
the same hour Miss Gladys
Lynch had died at Granville.
AS they were both in the prime
of life, we'll known, respected,
and loved by all, the express
sions of regret and sorrow were
universal. The relatives of
those who passed away have

CONSUL IN INDIA BUYS
LANDS NEAR AMERICUS
Invests in Fine Plantation
Near City.

Hon. Nat B. Stewart, American con-
sui at Madras, India, and at present
spending a vacation with friends in
Americus, has made a substantial in
vestment in realty here. Yesterday
Mr.. Stewart purchased, through Col.
Fred B. Arthur, real estate dealer,
the fine farm of Col Frank A. Hoop
er, located four miles east of Ameri-
Gus. The farm contains POP acres,
and is considered very desirable one.
as $40 per acre was refused for it
quite recently, it is said Consul Stew
art, who was reared near Americus
in the good county of Schley, appre-
ciates the value of farming lands in
Sumter as a good investment, hence
the purchase of the Hooper place yes
terday. Mr.. Stewart states that his
brother Mr.. Walter Stewart, now a
resident of Taylor county, will come
to Americus and assume management
of the farm. Consul Stewart has been
greatly enjoying his vacation at his
old home, after years of work in the
consular service on the other side of
the world.

MAJ. VIM. s. ROCKWELL
DEAD AT SAVANNAH.
Was Well Known to MasOns Through.
out the State.

Savannah, Ca, Sept 21.-Maior
William S. Rockwell, Confederate
soldier and prominent Mason, is dead
at his summer residence at White
Bluff.
William S. Rockwell was born in
Milledgeville, Ga, July 1S, 1843
When II years old the civil war began
and the young man, putting behind
him every other consideration, shoul-
dered his musket and marched to the
front as member of the Oglethorpe
Light Infantry.
He was captured at Fort McAllis
ter and held prisoner at Fort Della
ware until the close of the war. Fo,
twenty years he was cashier of the
Merchants National Bank here.
About 1898 Major Rockwell left the
bank, and retired from active business
life. His interest in the affairs OF
Masonry continued, however, and the
latter years of his life were devoted
almost entirel yto this branch of fra
ternal work Major Rockwell stood
high in the Masonic orders, being q
32d degree Mason, and having served
twice as a grand commander in the
Knights Templar.

WAREHOUSE BALES
ALONE COUNTED HERE
AmeriCuS Cotton Receipts
Ahead of Other Towns.

With local cotton receipts now
reaching out towards the fifteen thou
sand bale mark, Americus as a cot
ton market far outclasses all other in
terror markets in Georgia both in
point of receipts as well as in the ex-
ceptionally good prices paid here for
the staple.
And there are three good reasons
why this is the case, to-wit: the best
prices, the best roads to market, and
the best market in which to buy
goods.
Three factors that keep Americus
ahead of all other towns.
For no other town in Georgia-not
even Macon or Columbus-has receiv-
ed $4,000 bales wagon cotton at it's
warehouses, as has Americus. For
Arnericus counts wagon cotton only;
cotton that is weighed and sold at her
warehouses and the money spent here.
And of that kind of cotton she has
received over $4,000 bales already, the
exact number being shown lin the
daily market report upon another
page.
The daily warehouse receipts ap-
pear there every morning. They are
made up the preceding night, the
salesman at each warehouse report
ing the number of bales actually
weighed by him that day. Every
warehouse salesman in Americus
will cheerfully verify this statement
NO cotton still in the railroad
yards undeliyered' is counted with
the receipts, as an Americus buyer is
alleged to have stated in another town.
In fact railroad cotton, except that
shipped to the warehouses direct, is
mot counted at all, nor has it ever been,
to swell the city's receipts. Only
legitimate receipts, where the cotton
is sold here and the money circulat-
ed here, is counted in the annual re-
ceipts
And in this Americus leads all inte-
rior markets of her size and class,
and probably some of the larger cities
as we'll.

FIVE ASSOCIATIONS
UNITE IN THE BAZAR
Novel Plan That Ensures a
Thorough Success.

Monday, November 29-Ladies' Aux
iliary of the Brotherhood of LOcOmO-
tive Engineers.
Tuesday, November 3O-Daughters
American Revolution.
Wednesday, December limited
Daughters of the COnfederacy.
Thursday, December 2-Americus
Hospital Association.
Friday, December 3-Carnegie Iii
brary Association.
The above are the assignments for
the coming Union Bazar that is to be
held, probably at the City Hall, for
five days, beginning Monday, Novem-
Der 90
Five associations in all will unite
in making the bazar a great success,
socially and financially.
With several hundred ladies active
ly interested, and with the friends of
the several associations likewise
working and contributing, the success
of the bazar is assured in advance.
Each day, as stated above, one of
the interested organizations will have
charge of the entertainments that are
to be provided for the public. This
will naturally provoke a good natured
rivalry that will ensure entertain
ments that will be attractive and
original and we'll worthy of large
public patronage.
The Hospital Association will have
control of the dining room and will
serve dinners and suppers each day,
beginning Monday, November 20.
Each of the associations will have a
booth.
By this novel arrangement each as
sociation makes just as much money
as it possibly can the Hospital Asso-
citation and the others being on the
same footing except with respect to
the dining service. Each association
will probably give two entertainments
on the day assigned to it, one in the
dlteIHoOn anu Lne Otnef at nlSnL.
Plans are already being laid for these.
The ladies in charge for the Hos
pital Association are Mrs. P. c. Clegg,
Mrs. Frank Harold, Mrs Tom Hud-
son, with Mrs. James Taylor in charge
of the entertainment Each of the
other associations will appoint similar
committees at once.
The next two months will find the
ladies of the five associations very
actively engaged in their preparations
tistic and the most successful bazaar
ever held in Americas.

MANY ATTENDED RECFP-
TON AT PARSONAGE
BaptistS and Friends Enjoy
Pleasant Social Evening

The reception to the members and
attendants of the First Baptist church
at the new parsonage ON College ave-
| nue. last night proved a delightful So
| cial event. 1t was largely attended
many friends of the church, outside
| of those connected regularly with it
showing their esteem for DR.. Bur
rows by calling to pay their respects
and congratulate him and the church
on the recent completion of the pas
toral home.
The parsonage was ablaze with
lights and every part of it was thrown
open for the inspection of the admir-
ing visitors. Planned by Mr.. Lee AL
len, one of the officials of the church
built with care, and finished in excel
lent taste throughout, the parsonage
is an ideal of comfort and convent
ence. Every feature of it called for
compliments and the undoubted pleas
ure with which it was studied by the
callers was exceedingly gratifying to
those charged with it's erection as
well as to DR.. Burrows, Mrs. Mayes
and Miss Rochester, who were intro
duced to the visitors by ladies of the
reception committee.
Visitors were coming and going
from o'clock until we'll after 10,
and it is probable that the greater
part of the congregation, in addition
to scores Of other friends and admir-
ers of the esteemed pastor, attended
the reception.
Refreshments were served during
the evening by a committee of young
ladies, including Mrs. B. J. Statham
and Misses Florence Niles, Floyd Fort,
Mabel Hawkins, Blanche Hawkins,
Matte Sergeant and Ruth Arlington
The reception committee of ladies
was composed of Mrs. Frank Sheffield.
Mrs. P. c. Clegg, Mrs. Lee Allen, Mrs
c. c. Hawkins, Mrs. w. NJ. Tullis. Mrs,
John Cato, Mrs. F. A. Jackson Mrs.
Hollis Fort, Mrs. c. R. Whitley, Mrs.
Ben Worthy and Mrs. Thomas Hooks
A surprise of the evening was the
gift of large supply of linen, blank
cts and other coverings, an evidence
of the affectionate regerd in which DR..
Burrows is held by his congrega-
ton.
One of the especial features of the
parsonage to aweken admiration was
the hall door with it's magnificent
bevel-edge prism glass, set in lead.
This glass, together with the side
lights and those above extending the
width of the hall, was a personal gift
to DR.. Burrows from the Blum Art
Glass Co of Louisville. The en-
trance was immeasurably enriched
by it.

GOODWIN PLACE WILL AGAIN
BE OFFERED FOR SALE.

The Arnold Goodwin farm near
Americus and considered one of the
finest 400acre farms in South Geor-
gia, may have to be resold by the ad-
ministrator, it is understood, in order
to further perfect title. The prop
erty was bought some time ago by
Mr.. R. S. Broadhurst at $4,000, the
transfer to be effected October 1st,
but the discovery of a slight error in
the previous sale will, it is stated, rem
der necessary another public sale of
that property at an early date.
