As Result of PrOtraCted
Drought.
Streams Getting Low
and Railway Tanks

Forest fires in localities below
Americus have done considerable
damage recently to timber and small
outhouses unprotected, while in some
instances fields of hay have been
swept away as well. Owing to the
long-continued dry weather, the fires

within reach and farmers have con-

In some localities there has been no
rain for months, and in addition to the
forest fires there is much suffering
from lack of water Wells and creeks
are fast drying up.
Farmers in Americus yesterday
stated that no little difficulty was ex-
perienced in getting enough water for
their stock. Many have dug their
wells deeper, but even this afforded
little relief. In many instances they
are hauling water long distances from
the creeks
Railway engineers here report some
difficulty in getting water at tanks
along the lines of road, as the streams
from which supply is afforded are
running very low. Flint river and, IN
fact, all streams in the territory about
Americus are lower now than ever
known before, while not a few small
pounds and little creeks have gone

A PARTY OF VlRGINIANS
COME TO AMERICUS.
Looking Up Investments in
Realty.
Pleased With Amer..cus
and Sumter-Think
it a Favored Spot

A party of prominent West Virgin
looking over the superb farming and
timbered lands of South Georgia with
the view to making investments in
realty here. The party arrived the
day before, and contemplate spending
a week or ten days in South Georgia,
visiting localities between this city
and Savannah.
In the party here are Messrs. b. 3.
Stout, r. f. L. Stout, G. S. Muzson,
c. W. Gore and d. f. Dye, all of
Clarksburg, West Virginia
Since coming to Americus these
gentlemen. representing large finan-
cial interests seeking investments IN
South Georgia. have been shown sew
eral very attractive farming proper
ties, with which they are well pleased.
One of the gentlemen, after a sur
vey of fine and level farm nelr
Americus, is quoted as expressing sur
prise that farmers in the North, and
particularly the mountain regions of
his own state, would continue to plow
the steep mountain sides when such
lands as can be had here are at their
disposal

sides there so steep" said one of
them yesterday, that the man at the
plowhandle walked in the furrow be-
low in order to hold the plow."
But here in this favored region It
is altogether different" he continued.
Here farmer can work in his
fields the whole twelve months and
have crops growing all the time in
stead of being shut up in his home for
long periods by snow and ice. 1t is
indeed a fine country. and we are all
delighted with it, too"
The party will remain at least a
week in Americus before looking at
lands in other localities.

THE DOCTORS QUESTION.
Some Advice Against the Use Of
Harsh Purgatives and Physics.

A doctors first question when con-
suited by a patient is, Are your bow
els regular?" He knows that 98 pei
cent of illness is attended with inac-
tive bowels and torpid liver. This
condition poisons the system with
waste matter and causes accumulation
of gases which must be removed
through the bowels before health can
be restored.
Salts, ordinary pills and cathartics
may be truly likened to dynamite
Through their harsh, irritating action
they force passage through the bow
els, causing pain and damage to the
delicate intestinal structure which
weakens the whole system, and al
best only produces temporary relief.
The repeated use of such treatments
causes chronic irritation of the stom-
ach and bowels, dries and hardens
their tissues, deadens their nerves,
stiffens their muscles and generally
brings about an injurious habit which
sometimes has almost, if not fatal re-
suits.
We have a pleasant and safe REM
edy for constipation and bowel disor-
ders in general. We are so certain of

ACTION ON LIBRARY
PUT OFF TWO WEEKS.
Mayor Held No Qualified
Quorum Present.

The City Council did nothing fur
ther relative to the Carnegie Library
at it's meeting last night,
This, though, must not be con-
strued into any hostility on it's part
toward the library, or any desire to
avoid fulfilling it's legal and moral
obligations toward that institution.
The failure to act was due to the
ruling of Mayor Fielder that there was
no quorum qualified to pass upon the
matter in attendance at the meeting
Aldermen Clarke and Poole were
absent This left four aldermen
present, ,Messrs. Hawkins, Rogers, El-
bridge and Allen. the latter two being
members of the Board of Trustees Of
the library
Mayor Fielder held that by virtue Of
their official connection with the libra
ry Aldermen Eldridge and Allen were
disqualified from acting on the mat
ter of the resolutions sent in from
the library trustees. and were also
disqualified from introducing a reso-
luton appropriating money for it or
voting on same. ,.
Aldermen Allen and Hawkins were
in favor of going ahead and making
an appropriation and putting the Ii
brary on a permanent basis at once.
Alderman. Eldridge, who also favors
a regular monthly appropriation, felt
that nothing would be lost by waiting,
as the library was provided for for
the current month.
After some discussion along these
lines Mayor Felder's views prevailed,
and further action was deferred until
the next regular meeting of Council
two weeks hence
