New and Up-to-Do1e.

Col W. A. Dodson returned yes
terday from Philadelphia and New
York, where he had been for th.
past fortnight on business connecte,
with the Americus Railway and Ligh
Company.
When Col. Dodson left the city i
was rumored that on this trip there
was every likelihood of something
definite being done with regard to tn,
completion of the electric lighttns
plant, along the lines that were lai.
down two years or more ago.
Col. Dodson was somewhat averse tC
discussing the business of the com
pany when seen by a Times-Rec order
representative yesterday, but finally
consented to make a statement fo,
publication.
Il can now state positively sal.
he, that tie electric lighting plan
Will be completed as quickly as posi-.
BILE. The machinery is contracted fol
to arrive between November 1 and No
Vember Is. The investors interested
in the plant have agreed to advance
all the money necessary for it's com
pletion. That means that the plant
in the new building will be of thl
most modern character, embracing G.
erything up-to-date in the electrica al
line, and adequate for a city mucn
larger than Americus. The equipment
is to be first class in every respect
and the work of erecting twill be
pushed vigorously when the machinery
begins to arrive"
''Who are the parties that are fur
nishing the money to complete tha
plant, that is, to put in an up-to-date
plant in every respect in the new
building Col. Dodson was asked.
'"There-are two of them," Col. bod
son replied. Men of extremely large
wealth. Mr.. Rood, of Springfield, Mass
formerly president and largest stock
holder of the Hamilton Watch Com.
pany, who visited Americus some
weeks ago, and was we'll pleased with
the city and county and believes that
we have a grand future in this sec.
tion, and Mr.. Jacob S. Disston, oil
the great firm of Henry Disston
Sons, the leading saw manufacturers
of the world.
These gentlemen will put into The
lAmericus enterprise any amount
needed for the completion of the cleo
trio plant. When it is finished it will
be the best in any city of our size in
the South and will take care of al
needs of the city even though it may
grow rapidly for years to come"

WAS BORED BY BULLET
SENT AFTER THIEF
burglar Is PunCtured By
Citizen.
Was Cutting the Win
dow to Enter Resi-
dence--City Delighted
at Good Shot Made.

To Conductor T. l.. Simmons belongs
the distinction of having winged the
daring burglar, or at least one of them,
who for two weeks has been terror
izing residents of Americus by night
ly raids upon their homes, despite eff
forts made to locate him. And Capt.
Simmons is being roundly compliments
ed thereupon.
Cllf Clements, negro of unsavory
rep, is in Jail with bullet in his
groin and tells many fairy stories as
to how he was winged.
Capt. Simmons shot a negro on the
porch of his residence, the Wheeler
home on Jackson street, at O'Clock
yesterday morning. A few hours
thereafter Clements showed UP at Dr..
D. B. Mayes' Office to have a bul-
let extracted
The conflicting stories told by the
negro aroused Dr. Mayes' suspicion
and he soon put the police wise to the
fact. Clements, who already was sus-
pected of the several burglarfes com
mitted here recently, was arrested ana
is being held for investigation.
Capt. Simmons is sure he is the
negro shot at the Wheeler residence.
He was also identified by Mrs. Ham
mond who was attacked in her home
at midnight one week ago and roughly
handled by a burglar whom Mr.. Ham
hond shot at five times as he dashed
down Brannon street in flight.
Mrs. Hammond feels positive that
Clements is the negro who entered
her home and attempted to burglarize
the residence
A bicycle found at the front Of the
Wheeler home, and placed there by
the negro who was shot in order to
facilitate lis escape, was identified
aus the property of Dr. Howell, and
was stolen from the front of his
drug store Saturday night.
There seems no doubt that it was he
who committed the many petty bur,
glaries here recently.
Not long ago he was arrested for a
burglary committed at the home Of
Mr.. E. B. Everette on Lee street, and
was out on bond when Capt. Simmons
gave him the highball yesterday. His
brother, Bill Clements, was sent up
for five years for burglary some time
ago, but is out on bond pending the
usual new trial.
Citizens generally are elated NJ
Capt Simmons success in puncturing
lis midnight visitor, and are ready to
vote him resolutions of thanks.

THEY ASK WHAT
DOES OUR TOM WANT /?
Think He Will Run For Gov
ernOr in 1912.
If So Sumter VIII Have
An Honor That Has
Never Before Come
to 1t.

Atlanta, Ca, September 26.-Is
Col. Thomas G.. Hudson, the suave,
polished, Misunderstanding commissioner
of agriculture, setting sail for con-
gress, or the governorskdp?
Although Hoke Smith has not ac,
tually been elected yet, and even
after the formality of the October
election it will be more than eight
months before he actually begins his
term of office, there are already signs
of lining up for 1912. Hol1e Smith
has stated emphatically that he will
not run again. 1t is equally certain
that he will practically name the
man who will represent his policies in
the office.
Colonel Hudson undoubtedly leans
toward Smith. While he took no ac-
tive part in the recent primary it is
we'll known that his sympathies were
with Smith. But Hudson is not tie
Smith type of politician by any means,
and it is doubtful if the big mans
mantle would fall on the Americus
man. The colonel rather likes to run
with the boys, instead of arousing
antagonisms by any reform business
He is a good, clean, straight man
all right, but he is inclined to con-
servatism in his political operations.
1t is known that he has strong de-
sires to go to Washington. He Sc.
riously contemplated trying to trim
the Honorable Dudley Hughes at the
recent primary, but afte rlong and due
reflection he decided that it was un-
auspicious just now to do so. AS
history goes in Georgia the office of
commissioner Of agriculture offers ex :
ceptional advantages in building up
neat and nifty little machine The
place carries quite a list of appoint
ments all over the state with it. No
commissioner is going to appoint any
man oil or fertilizer inspector who is
not a friend, or who does not carry
some political influence with him.
There be those who say Uncle ODE
Stevens built up as fine and smooth
working a bit of machine out of the
job as one would care to see. It is
history that Uncle Obe held the job
as long as he wanted it, then graduat-
ed into the railroad commission berth.
That is apparently where Uncle ODE
fell down, for along comes a red-haired
chap from Gwinnett presently and
yanks the commissionership of rail-
roads from under the crafty Uncle
ODE. Evidently that place does not af-
ford any such opportunities for ma
chine building as did the farming job.
But, reverting to Colonel Hudson,
one hears lot about him these days
for the governorship two years hence.
He only smiles when questioned, but
if it looks easy he can be persuaded.
If neither side will line up with him
and it is dollars to doughnuts that
the Brown wing won't-he may decide
to try to separate Dud Hughes from
the Third district job.
AS things now look there is to b.
a Kilkenny cat time of it next time.
Both sides are in fighting humor.
One is in the saddle, gleeful, arrogant
and sure of things. The other is out,
sore at many things, and especially
the convention steam roller, and deter
mined to come back with a vengeance,
if it is possible.
