MAN ARRIVES HERE
 IN DYING CONDITION
p. J Mcguire of Bakersfield Taken to
 the County Hospital.

Hardly more than able to walk. the victim of pulmonary tuberculosis and constantly recurring hemorrhages. r. J. Mcguire arrived here yesterday from Bakersfield, Cal. practically penniless. Hope of recovery from his malady had actuated him to make the trip without thought of what was to become of him after his arrival in this city.
 Late yesterday afternoon Mcguire was picked up on Washington street by Officer Ludlam who took him to the office of Miss Gilchrist, superintendent of Associated Charities. Upon arriving there his condition was such as to give rise to the belief that he was dying. pr. Tafel was hastily summoned and worked over the man for more than an hour.
 Mcguire finally began to respond to the treatment and was able to be re- moved to the county hospital in the ambulance It is not believed that the man can long survive and an effort is being made to locate some of his rel atives.

 Without being remarkably good looking. she was certainly a pleasant and attrGctive-looking young woman Her cheeks were little pale: her hair perfectly natural-wss a wonderful deep shade of soft brown. Her eyes were long and narrow-almost Orien- tai in shape-and they seemed in some queer way to match the room he could have sworn that in the fire light they flashed green. Her body and limbs, notwithstanding her ex- treme slightness, were graceful. per haps, but with the grace of the tigress. She wore green silk dressing jacket. pulled together with a belt of lizard skin, and her neck was bare. Her skirt was of some thin black material. She was obviously in deshabille, and yet there was something neat and trim about the smaller details of her toilette
 Go on, please, Peter" she begged. " You are keeping me in suspense"

 She drew a sharp breath through her teeth.

 Look here,' he said, seriously, " don't you call her names. If I'm 1ot going to marry her, it isn't my fault. She is the only girl 1 have ever wanted, and probably-most probably-she will be the only one ever shall want. That's honest, isn't it?"

Parker. The Democratic managers
are planning to have Judge Parker
fo.low Col. Roosevelt closely wherever
the latter goes, answer Ills arg'l-

and otherwise undo anything Mr..
Roosevelt may succeed in doing.
Judge Parker, according to Con-
gressman- Francis Burton Harrison,
who is in charge of the speakers hu-
reau at democratic headquarters, Will
follow Col. Roosevelt closely. Asked
if it was the intention to have Ju Ige
Parker follow Col. Roosevelt,
Harrison said:
There is no detailed plan to thai
effect, but Judge Parker will be the
committees mainstay during the cam
paign."
1t is possible that the first platform

RIGHTS Of BOARD
OF EDUCATION
What a Member Says in
Reply to Aid. Allen.
Insists That Board is Acting Entirely
Within Its Rights and That Council
Has Nothing to Do With Its Ex-
peRdituFGS Under The Law.

Members of the Board of Education
90 not agree witt Alderman Allen II
his structures upon their course IN
contracting an Indebtedness in con-
nection with the new High School
building.
At the meeting of Council on Tues
day night Alderman Allen took issue
with the right of the Board of .Elaca
ton to incur obligations that left 4
in debt without first consulting with
the City Council and securing permis-
sion from it to make such contracts.
Referring to this a member of +
Board of Education yesterday handed
to the Times-RecOrder the following
statement as to the creation of tie
Beard of Education and tie authority
vested in it, maintaining that Tie
Board had not exceeded dts authority,
and that Council had no right to in
any way direct the expenditure Of
the school funds. AS the member OF
the Board looked at it, the only au-
thOrity vested in Council is to elect
the members of tLe Board and to v3re
the taxes requested by the Board with
in the legal Limitation of five mills
on the dollar. His communication is
as follows:
by special act of the Legislature
in 1878, a permanent commission IN
the form of a Board of Education was
created and vested with corporate
powers to establish and maintain a
system of plblic SCHOOLS for the City
of Americus.
This act has never been amended
except in two particulars.
The act of 1889 reduced the direct
tax for school purposes frcm oae per
cent. to one-ha.f of one per ce1t, ard
the act of 1893 provided for the elrc-
ton of Board mtmt ers by the CITY
Council.
Under the original act, section III,
TIE City Council is directed to fa1ply
the services OF thc ely TO ralSe SuHE
revenue for the establishment and
maintenance of such public schools as
may be established by said Board of
Education as may .be required of them
for said purpose.
at appears from this act that II
contemplated TIE City Council hay
ing absolutely no voice in the conduct
of the schools, except to name tie
members lof the Board of Education
and to provide the money ito main
tain them as the Board of Education
shall require, within tie limitation Of
direct tax of one-hlrf of one Per
cent
The Board of Education has mere
ly requested the City Council to levy
the tax set forth in the law 1t has
not asked the city to appropriate any
money from its funds and proposes
| to attend to it's own affairs and pro
vide for al of it's purposes from the
tax levied in accordance with the
act"

COMPETITIVE Drill
COMING IN JAN.
Nav Be Pulled OFF With Three
Companies In.
Ladies Will Doubtless Make This the
Next Entertainment Provided By
Them fer the PubIiC---Et Would
Awaken Keen Interest.

A competitive drill that would arouse
great interest ana concentrate the
9ltent.on of two cities is projected
for some time this winter under the
auspices of the iadies of the Clneqie
Library ana the Hospital Associate u.
1t will I've several months off, bat
already the plans are being laid in
order that ample time may be af-
forded the contestants in which tc
perfect themselves for the competl-
ton
The plan now is to have a trlan-
guIar contest between the Amerlcus
and Albany military companies and
the cadets of the Third District Ag".-
cultural College.
With the keen rivalry existing be-
tween Americus and Albany in ali
matters and with the added rivalry
that would arise from the entrance OF
the Agricultural College boys, the 2x-
hibition would be full of spirit. The
drilling in advance would make the
boys 2s near perfect as possible.
The idea as at present announced
is to offer a liberal prize for tie
best drilled squad ami also gold
medal and perhaps "a silver medal sor
the best dri.leI individuals.
The Americus and Albany compa-
nies have some crack drilled men IN
them, and no doubt each of them coald
at once put a squad in the contest
that would do some pretty work in
the manual and in marching. But with
three months time in which to far
ther perfect themselves they would
doubtless move like clockworlI.
The cadets at the college have not
had the advantage of long drilling.
but there is some very efficient maze
rial in the corps, and it, too, could
be drilled into fine shape by January,
when it is suggested that the drill be
held ait the armory hall.
The suggestion appears to have been
well taken and it is probable that
the ladies Will soon be in consultation
with the military men in preparing
the formal notification to the compa-
nies that the contest viii be held

COLD WAVE is NOW
COMING this Way
Decided Change in TGmpera-

Welcome News to the Retail Bu,ineSS
lntGFeStS---ThG Intense Summer
Heat Finally to Give Way to More
SeaSOndbIe Temperature.

Cloudy, probable rain and a decided
drop i'll temperature is the prediction
sent ont for Americas yesterday as
to the weather outlook for the next
bwenty-four hours.
Yesterday Was trife too bamy 10
be pleasant In fact for several hours
it was an unpleasant reminder of tno
midsummer days.
But the change that is prCgnosti-
Gated will be as welcome as it has
been long delayed The public is
weary of the good old summer time
and yearning for a change to an at
mosphere with some snap in it. when
brisk walking and qig1t overcoats
will be in order.
Merchants, especially, will welcome
the news of the coming cool, or per
haps cold, wave with a feeling a)-
preaching enthusiasm. The unseas-
onably warm weather that has pre-
vailed for the past three or foul
weeks has been a terrific, dampener
on trade, a genuine uncontraverti5le
discourager of business, especially in
the clothing and dry goods lines
With the thermometer registering on
toward the 80 degree mark every day
there has been little desire on the
part of the public to buy heavy unler
wear, fall shoes, or wooden suits. Ever
the straw hat is still reluctant to turn
loose and few last roses of su,o-
mer" are seen on the streets.
But today or tomorrow may change
all tl.fs The weather prophet has
spoken.

MATRIMONY Is WORTH
S24O,OO0 FOR EACH HOUR
Wife of 40 Minutes Refuses to Pay
Lawyer $4,000 for 21o Min
utes of Advice

CHICAGO, Feb. 17.-Seth f. Crews,
the lawyer, explained the bill for $780,
900 for 210 minutes legal services
which he sent to Mrs. Mary f. Smith.
Mr., Crews has brought suit to prove
that his counsel was worth $1O,2S5 per
hour $171.43 a minute, $2.85 second:
But he insists his advice brought
$780, 900 to Mrs. Smith, who inherited
her husbands estate after becoming
a wife and widow in ninety minutes.
Or, to put it in the same mercenary,
calculating way, those ninety minutes
were worth to Mrs. Smith $240,o0O an
hour, 900 q minute, $666.66 a second.
Mrs. Smith was wife one hour and
a half, and received an estate at his
death valued at $360,000," said Mr..
Crews. my advice as her attorney
effected that marriage. My fee, which
she refuses to pay, was 10 per cent of
her inheritance, which I consider
moderate proportion of value received
by her.

Mr.. Smith took out Mrs. Smith said
