Il CASES OF TYPHOID
Is TOTAL FOR SUMMER
Record in Americas Quite
Favorable.

Americas has had total of only
twelve cases of typhoid fever during
the entire summer season to date, ac-
cOrding to official records in the
Health Department, backed by the
statement of City Physician Chambliss.
An excellent showing indeed for a city
as large as Americas.
This total includes all cases among
white and cilored citizens alike, in a
populatiin Of 10000, or about one case
to every one thousand of population.
Of this number, eight cases orig
mated during May. June and July, and
four since August 1st.
1t is fact worthy of deep consider
alton that the greater number OF these
fever cases are in those sections of the
city removed from the sanitary sever
age systematic ratio being about four
TO one. This is a very strong arg.-
ment in favor of the needed extension
of the sewerage system in Americas.
City Physician Chambliss reports
health conditiins here as very excel
lent at this season.

LUNACY is PLEADED IN
THE CASE OF CAWLEY
In Attempt to Save Him
From Charge.

In a plea of lunacy Dave CawIey,
who, it is alleged, some weeks ago
forged check on the Bank of South
west Georgia, of Americas, under the
name of D. L. Inman, for $100, and
succeeded in getting the check cash
ed 10y an Atlanta bank, and was later
arrested on a charge of forgery ana
disorderly conduct, will escape trial
upon the graver charge. Cawley is an
insurance agent at Cordele, and upon
trial there for lunacy a day or two
ago a verdict of insanity was rendered.
thus saving him from trial upon a
felony charge. The writ of lunacy
was sworn out by his brother, C. H.
Cawley. He is being held at present
at the home of his father, B. F. Cav
ley. He was a young man of prom
ising future and we'll connected in
Cordele, where his parents, his wife

IN LISTLESS GAME
CHAMPS LOST THIRD
WiregraSS TOsSers COPIED Last Game
of Series.

Thomasville took tie third game Of
the series played with the Champs
here at Dudley Field yesterday al
ternoon by a score of > to f in a lis:-
less and loosely played game.
Donaldson, a brother of Don. the
star batter and left fielder of the local
team, worked on the firing line for
the visitors and gave the Champs az
much trouble in solving his banders
as did Perryman or Edwards. Until
nearly the close OF the game ne he'd
the Champs down to a run or two.
Robinson pitched for the locals, bat
was batted freely.
The game had little in that deserved
recommendation. The players on each
team went at it like schooIboys. While
Thomasville was manifestly glad to
win the last game of the series. the
Champs didn't seem to trouble them
selves. Out of eight games played 10
date, the Champs have won six.
The team left last night for Thorn
asville, where Wolfe will face Perry
man in the first game of the series
there.

WANTED TO KNOW
ABOUT OUR DIARIES
Central Railroad to Adver-
tiSe This Field.

The immigration Bureau of the
Central Railroad of Georgia is to
exploit the possibilities of the sec
ton through which it runs as a dairy
ing country.
To that end immigration Agent
Jackson has called on various parties
for information relative to success
full dairies that are in operation in
their respective counties, in order that
information may be obtained at first
hand and utilized nthe pamphlet
that is to be issued by his depart
ment
Mr. Jackson wrote tile Americas
Board of Trade along this line. Mr..
Walker, of Buchanan & Walker, viii
prepare data for Mr.. Jackson, dealing
with Sumter's opportunities for the
dairy farmer. Mr.. Walkers expert
rience has been of a most satisfac-
tory character. and he is in position
to speak with some authority.
There is no doubt that this county
is in many respects peculiarly adapt
ed to dairying. There are good mar
kets for the output of large dairy
farms in Americas, Columbus and Ma
con. In fact, cream and butter could
be shipped to Atlanta at a profit.
The advertising that tie Central
proposes to give to Georgia in this and
other respects should result in ma
terial advantage to the various coun-
ties traversed by its lines. In Sumter
the Board of Trade will heartily CO.
operate with it in every move that Il
makes.

And lost their renown:

Picked big prize goat from the flock,
What we did to that boy
Put a crimp in his joy,
And he'll never revive from the shoe.
There was a player named Peddy
AT short he was sure and steady,

To play on team
Whose work was so bum and bone
