A FALSE STATEMENT.

For some weeks we advertised as
genuine Irish Frieze a line OF over
coats which we we're selling at go.
This we did in good faith, as the gooos
we're so represented to us by a repu-
table manufacturer.
We recently learned that the tao-
ric. while an excellent value, WAS
NOT GENUINE Irish Frieze. We
greatly regret the misrepresentation
and will cheerfully refund the money
to any dissatisfied customer.
Just imagine some houses
that repeatedly make false state
ments in advertising printed
something like the above. All
credit to the w. B. Davis Co.

both Dem ocratc and Republican. In each v

will not elect the candidate in either party.
Aside from the state issues that will be presented to tn voters Oh
N.vada there will be the greatest discussion of National politics thu
has ever to the thinking peopl lie. The action OF the insurgents IN
Congress will not be passed up lg hhy, o will the failure OF M DOM

That the Democratic press and candidate will have a fresh supply

Locally politics will be OF the same natur as IN D" "
vears As a be testified to, Repu blcans have been elected IN Demo

GOING TO THE WOODS"
WROTE THE CASHIER
And Banks Cash is in
Woods With Him.

Clintwood, Va, July S.-Cash to the
amount of $4,000 and $1,000 worth
OF unsigned treasury certificates have
disappeared from the vaults of the
Citizens National Bank of this place
and a reward of $1,000 has been Of
fered by the officers of the institution
for the arrest of Walter Sutherland
cashier of the bank.
Sutherland hired "a horse Saturday
night and told his friends, it is al
legged, that he was going to ride to
Straton to spend the Fourth with rel
atives.
When he did not appear at the bank
Tuesday morning inquiry developed
it is said, that the young man did
not visit Straton. No trace has vet
been found of Sutherland or of the
horse
1t was not until late yesterday that
the bank vault, the time lock of which
had been set for SO Hours, could
be opened. Then the officers dis
covered the loss.
In the vault they found a note say,
ing: Gone to the tall timbers." The
name of the missing cashier, it is al
legged, was signed to it.
Sutherland, who is "a years old, was
at ore time connected with the army
engineer corps in the Philippines.

ALL OWNERS OF AUTOS
SHOULD COOPERATE
In Making tuesdays Ride
a Pronounced Success.

III the auto owners of Americas re-
spond, as they have always done IN
the past, one of the most enjoyable
features of the entertainment of the
editors and publishers of Georgia s
weekly newspapers will be the ride
over the good roads of Sumter coun-
ty ON next Tuesday afternoon, SHOW
ing the visitors the finest lands in
Southwest Georgia and introducing
them to the best highways in the
state.
1t is essential that this feature
of the program should be carried out
fully. In the write-ups that the week
ly papers will give to Americas and
Sumter county as result of their
visit, it is especially desirable that
markable progress the country round
about Americas has made in recent
years. In fact this is one of the very
things that is drawing many of the
visitors here. They have heard so
much about Americas and Sumter
county that they are anxious to see
for themselves whether the reports
are true.
1t will take probably sixty to seven
ty autos to accommodate the visitors
DESTROYS of seeing the country. AS
there are over 100 autos in the city,
there should be no trouble experienced
by the committee in getting the CO.
operation of enough owners of cars
to ensure that all the visitors will
have this opportunity.
1t will be the greatest advertise
ment Sumter county has had and
every patriotic, philosophical owner
of an auto should give his heartiest
assistance to make this feature a pro-
nounced success.

DIVIDEND 3 PER CENT.
is DECLARED BY BANK
Southwestern in Line With
Others Here.

The directors of the Bank Of South
Western Georgia held their semi-an-
nual meeting yesterday and declared
the usual July dividend of three per
cent. upon the banks capital stock of
100000. This bank is upon an eight
per cent. dividend basis, declaring 5
per cent in July and 5 per cent. in
January upon the years business, be-
sides adding to it's surplus and undi-
vided profits. The exhibit made of
the current years business to date was
very satisfactory and the banks ac-
tive officers, President A. w. Smith,
Vice President G. NJ. Eldridge and
Cashier N. M. Dudley were compli-
mented thereupon.

0CILLA PLAYS GOOD
BALL WITH THE CHAMPS
Same Yesterday Was De-
CidedIy Close.

In a game devoid of features, but
interesting from start to finish, the
Champs triumphed over the Ocilla
bunch yesesterday by the close score
of to 2. At no time until the finish
was either team assured of victory
something that can not be said of
but mighty few games played here
this season.
In the first Snow went to second
on Vibert's tumble and wild throw,
advanced to third on HowelI's sim
gle and scored when McGregor and
Peddy tried to catch Howell going to
second. The locals tied it up in the
second when Wilson got to sec
ond on Deyos muff of a hard chance
and Tailed when McGregor singled.
THE visitors united it in the fourth
when Goodwin singled, went to second
on Bruce's hit, advanced to third on
Peddy's wild throw and scored on
Vibert's tumble of Bowen's grounder.
DOC wilson tied 1t up again in the
sixth when he doubled to center and
came home on Dunn's single, catcher
dropping the ball in chase.
Vibert scored the winning run in
the eighth when he beat out a slow
one to third, went to second on a wild
pitch, to third on Hawkins sacrifice
and came home on Peddy's grounder.
The Ocilla boys play good ball, and
excepting Albany, they have the best
team seen here this season. The game
tomorrow will be hummer God
win, their best twirler, will work out
for the visitors, and opposed to him
will be the one and only Wolf. Come
out and see pitchers duel between
two stars.

RIOT IN DECATUR WAS
FEARED FOR A WHILE
Trouble There is Narrowly
Averted.

cambridge, Ga, July S.-A race riot
was narrowly aVerted in the southern
part of the county late last night by
the prompt action of Sheriff Emanuel
and deputies, assisted by fifteen or
twenty men, at Faceville. A negro
named Frank Jenkins attempted to
shoot ]. Young, manager of the Flint
River Naval Stores Company of Face
Vile, but before he could get his pis-
toll Young shot him in the leg.
The news soon spread among the
negroes and two hours later three ne
groes came up to the house of Young
where he was sleeping and called him
out, cursing him loudly and threaten
ing to burn his house before daylight,
and kill him, at the same time dis
playing their pistols and shooting in
to the air.
A posse of white men soon gathered
and a messenger was sent to Balm
bridge for the sheriff Before the ar
rival of the sheriff the posse learned
that the negroes who had made the
threats had barricaded themselves in
a house.. and they Immediately sur
rounded the place and called to the
negroes to surrender.
In answer the trio made their es-
cape through the back door amid a
fusilade of shots, none of which took
effect. Sheriff Emanuel arrived later
and made a thorough search of all the
negro quarters and succeeded in keep
ing down trouble. The negro will re-
cover All was quiet at Faceville ear
ly this afternoon.
