EMORY WORKERS WIN
IN A FAST CAMPAIGN
Fund Raised in One Week Insures Big
Endowment.

The committees appointed to raise
$4,000 during last week, to complete
the alf-million-dollar endowment OF
Emory college, reported shortly after 4
o'clock Saturday that their task had
been performed.
The campaign was a fast one. the
canyassers being stirred to their great
est efforts because of the knowledge
that failure to raise the $25,OO would
mean the loss of $275,OOO already
pledged on condition that 100000 be
scored by May /.
The fact that all of the 100000 has
been contributed by the people oil
Georgia, Atlantans alone subscribing
one-third of it, is a source of gratifica-
ton to President ]. E. Dickey, who
has had the entire campaign in charge.
He began it about a year and a half
ago, being authorized to do so by the
board of trustees of the college.
All of the $4,000 pledged by the
Alumni association some time since
has not been paid in, but notwithstand-
ing the fact that the half-million en-
dowment is now secured, the associa-
ton will keep at work until the entire
sum subscribed is collected for the
college.

This afternoon it will be Americus

.fAVORS PUTTING OFF
CAMPAIGN TO LATE DATE
Mr.. Ellis ApprOveSOf Hail. S
Course

Mr.. G. R. Ellis, Sumter's representa-
tive on the State Democratic Execu-
tive Committee, is one of those who do
not favor an early meeting of the ex-
ecutive committee and an early pri-
mary.
Il am decidedly opposed to an early
resumption of politics in Georgia.
said Mr.. Ellis yesterday in discussing
the matter, and for that reason I
heartily endorse Chairman Halls
course.
Georgia is now busy making prog
ress in various lines of activity" con-
tinued Mr.. Ellis. Its farmers are
busy in the field, its merchant in their
stores, the laborers in their various
lines, and Ehere is no reason why an
apple of discord should be thrown in
to their midst. The state would suf-
fer from a resumption Of angry parti-
san feeling that would extend over a
long period of time The shorter the
gubernatorial campaign the better for
the business interests of the people,
and the less the angry feelings that
will be aroused among them.
we all know how disturbing the
last two campaigns were. There is
no need for a repetition of such ex-
periences, and for one I hope the cam
paign will be held off to the last pos
sible moment I think Chairman
Hall is acting patriotically, for the
best interests of the entire state, in
pOstponing the call for the meeting of
the state committee as long as pos
sible."
It is probable that Mr. Ellis views
reflect those of a majority of people in
this vicinity who have no desire %
have a prolonged campaign with It's
unsettling effects.

LIGHT INF ANIRY GOING
TO CAMP IN SUMNER
AmeriCuS Men EIated at
Prospect.

The Americus Light Infantry will
go to the annual state encampment OF
the Georgia troops at Chickamauga
Park. This fact is assured NJ official
notice sent the Americus command
yesterday, and the officers and privates
alike are pleased thereat.
The exact date upon which the Light
Infantry will go from Americus, along
with the Columbus commands of the
Second Battalion, is not stated, but the
company is going; that much is GER
tain.
The minimum of service has been re-
duced from six months to three, so
that any soldier enlisted within three
months of July II, when the encamp-
ment begins, may go The encamp-
ment begins on the date named and
lasts ten days.
While the government has made this
concession in order to secure as many
companies as possible, the regulations
in other respects will be exceedingly
strict. Adjutant General Scott wants
it thoroughly understood that there is
to be no play, but work from start to
finish. The object is to bring the mil
itary of the state UP to the point Of
war efficiency.
To this end, no company will have
its expenses and per diem paid by the
government, which is not, at least,
forty men strong, of whom thirty-two
must be privates. With commissioned
officers, the minimum quota for each
company is forty-three.

The two stores now occupying the

measurements. Everything will be
torn out and the store will be recon-

WEIGHT OF PEACHES Is
BENDING Till TREES.
Finest Crop on Record in
AmeriCuS Territory.

Nothing short of cyclone will now
prevent the maturing of the finest
crop of peaches ever produced inSthe
half dozen big orchards about Ameri-
Gus. For the fruit is there, in quantity
sufficient to bend down the boughs,
and only little more sunshine is
needed to insure the crop.
Not only will the crop be immense,
but the quality will be excellent. No
gummy or wormy peaches /@ill be Of
fered this season.
Fifty thousand dollars is the fair
valuation placed upon the crop in 01e
large orchard near Americus, and the
crops of other orchards of less magni-
tude are worth as much in proportion,
if thus sold.
Offers to buy the crops of entire
orchards here have been made the
owners, but were declined.
The crop is really magnificent one.
In the Bagley-Ray, the Ware-Progress,
the Raymond, the Waddell, Hansford
and Broadfield orchards, as well as IN
the orchards further out from the city,
the trees are literally loaded down
with peaches, which already insure a
great crop.
The fruit were not in the least in
jured by the frost last week, and are in
healthy, vigorous condition. Already
the packing houses here are being
put in shape for the expedious handl-
ing of the crop, and the first ship
ments of May peaches will be made in
two or three weeks.
This crop should yield a golden har-
vest to TIE owners.

The Value of Property Medicines

is proven by the very large percentage
of physicians prescribing for some
remedies found in every drug store in
America, but as they are written in
Latin, few patients realize this fact.
The old standard proprietary medi-
cines like Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound, that have stood the
test of time, deserve a place in every
family medicine chest, and it is almost
certain they would not be prescribed
