FARMERS ARE Blue AT
COTTON in The fields
Staple Cannot Be Picked and
Is Running

Farmers in Americus yesterday
were decidedly blue over conditions as
regards the large portion of the cotton
crop yet ungathered in the fields, and
which is sustaining great injury from
the continued bad weather ThOus-
ands of bales yet remain to be picked
and marketed, but it seems impossible
to get it out of the fields. Labor is
scarce and the pickers rather indif-
ferent regagrding the work, while
three or four days of slow drizzling
rain renders the picking of the crop
almost impossible. In. the meantime
the staple is being damaged to great
extent and when offered for sale, will
bring far below the top price even 8
3-4 or 9 cents. At the present slow
rate of gathering the crop here in Sum
ter the pickers will probably be in tho
fields after the Christmas season.

IMPROVEMENTS
At PLANT ARE
MOST HELPFUL
FOR WATERWORKS SYSTEM
Reservoir, New Well and Boil
Cr Among BGttGrmGntS

Work has been advancing so rapidly
on the new reservoir that is being
constructed at the pumping station
that the floor of the reservoir has
practically been completed, while the
steel reinforcing framework for the
sides of the huge tank have already
been placed in position.
AS the work is progressing very
favorably, it will be only a short time
before it is completed, though the
construction of the reservoir sides
and top will consume more time than
has been required for the building
OF the bottom. AS fast as the gravel
can be secured the work is being car
ried on. There will hardly be any
delays unless it is on account of the
failure of the gravel to arrive in time
In addition to the construction OF
the reservoir, the drilling of the large
new artesian well is being pushed to
completion. This well when it is COM
pleted, according to Engineer Stevens.
should have as much capacity as all
the other four wells combined, as it
has a diameter of ten inches. The
flow of water will, therefore, be far
larger than that of the other wells,
which are mainly of fOur-inch dia-
meter only, while one is only a two
inch well.
It will be seen from the comparison
in size of the new well, as it is con-
sidered with the others, that it will
undoubtedly increase wonderfully the
supply for the plant. In addition TO
the drilling of the new well, which
has been completed for distance Of
more than a hundred feet while a
depth of more than four hundred feet
is required, the other wells will be
thoroughly cleaned out so that the wa
ter supply from these sources will
also be augmented. When all the
wells have been placed in good con-
dition, there should be no need of fear
ing a water famine, for the local sta
ton will be as we'll equipped for sup
plying the city with pure, fresh wa
ter as any station in city of this size
in the country.
The new boiler, which was received
some time ago, Is ready for installa-
ton, and this work will be taken up
some time soon, so that all these i'm
provements will help to bring the eff
ficiency of the local plant up to a very
high mark.

TAXES Come IN SLOWLY
FOR CITY and COUNTY
Not Troubled With
Callers

Than Tax Collector Small and City
Clerk Weaver, citizens of Americus
are so little rushed with work, not
withstanding the fact that both
would like to be busy at aking in the
tythes due the county and city. But
it is proverbally true that the man
who has taxes to pay will invariably
wait until the last day allowed BY
law ere he parts with his coin, and
this season there is no exception to
the rule. The tax books for both city
and county close early in December
when tax f1fas will be issued against
delinquents. The last two or three
days will witness a stampede of late
callers at the tax office, where they
will standimpatiently in line for an
hour in preference to paying up more
leisurely before hand

PAVING BILLS
ARE SOON TO
Be SENT OUT
MANY BILLS ARE NOW READY
Others to Be Issued as Work
Is Completed

Don't worry if you wake up some
morning and find an assessment for
street paving in your mornings mail,
For that's what you are likely to get
very soon according to the announce
ment given out by the City Engineer,
Already the assessments for the por-
ton Of expense to be borne by pro-
erty holders has been made out
against those who own property
along the streets where the paving
work has already been completed
These streets are Lee and Jackson
streets between Lamar and Forsyth
and Lamar street between Lee and
Jackson, making a total of three
blocks.
The assessments as they will be
mailed out contain an itemized state,
ment of the number of feet of pavina
that abuts on the property of each
property holder holder and the pro-
portionate amount of the expense that
each property owner is expected
to pay on his individual ac7
count This amount is, as has been
explained before, one-third of the to-
tai amount, the property holder on
each side of the street being expected
to pay one-third, respectively, while
the city pays one-third.,
The assessment for each property
holder will be mailed out, the state
ments bearing the notice that ten
days time will be allowed for the pay
ment of the assessment. Unless the
assessment is paid within ten days,
fifas will be issued for the collection
of the amounts due. In case fifas are
issued, the cost to each property hol'
der will be increased by an amount
for costs, which is equal to approxi-
mately eight or ten per cent of the
total amount of the bill. From this it
will readily be seen that the most sat
isfactory way to adjust these assess
ments is to pay them as soon as they
are received, or at least within ten
days after receipt.
As soon as the paving along the
other streets has been finished, as
sessments for the amounts will be
sent to the property holders concern
ed until all the amounts due the city
for this work shall have been paid.
The collection of the assessments will
be pushed vigorously, unless they ara
paid within the ten days specified by
the city ordinance.

CRIMES
CAUSED BY WHISKEE
30 Declares Appellate Judge In Re-
cent Decision.

Atlanta. Nov. SIN a Georgia cOurt
of appeals decision just handed down,
It is declared that liquor is responsi
Bile, either directly or indirectly. for
three-fourths of all the crime COM
mitted in the state.
The decision is in the case Of Lang
ston vs. the state, young boy who
slew his father. The father came
home drunk, attacked the mother, and
was killed by the son in a terrible row
that followed. The decision is by
Judge Hill, who sustains the verdict
of manslaughter found in the lower
courts.
Judge Hill says
THE evil of intoxicating liquor Is
monstrous and measureless. 1t Is {
hydra-headed and remorseless mons
ter, which with ceaseless and tireless
energy wastes the substance of the
poor, manufactures burdensome taxes
for the public, monopolizes the time
of the courts; fills the jails, peni
tentiaries and asylums, destroys man
hood. terrorizes helpless women ant
children, battles the church, and mockt

Large Shops Here

General Superintendent Shea of the
Seaboard Air Line Railway, with
headquarters at Plymouth, Supt. A. !.
Poole of the Motive Department, and
Division Supt. H. B. Grimshaw. were
In Americus for a short while yester-
lay morning, and spent an hour look
ing over the shops here.
The officials came up from Sayan-
nah aboard Supt. Shea's private car
and are making a tour of inspection
over the fourth division.
The party made careful inspec-
mos imporan Observation-Disclosures
tion of the Americus shops. one of
the most important plants of the Sea,
System, and while they out no in
formation to that end it was thought
possible that their visi here had
bearing upon improvements to be
made here.
After spending an hour or two at
the shops the officials left at 10
o'clock for Columbus and will return
to Savannah to-day.

The witness admitted that he had
found the certificate where he had
placed it among some other papers
and had forgotten it. DR.. H. t.
Simpson, son of DR.. W. T. Simpson
testified to matters of minor impor-
tance relative to having attended
Mrs. Childers as physician.
DR.. r. E. Stalling, of Atlanta, state
chemist testified merely ii the fact
that he had received from DR.. Simpson
the package containing the contents
If the stomach of Mrs. Childers, which
on account of the pressure of other
business, he had promptly turned over
to DR.. E. w. Everhart, an analytica
chemist in Atlanta, for the purpose OF
having an analysis made. DR.. Ever
hart testified that he had received an0
analyzed the stomach contents and
had fund that they contained about
three. grains of strychnine, or what
was approximately sufficient to Kill
about six persons.
He testified further that the bottle
of salhepatica accompanying the sto-
mach contents contained strychnine.
NJ Randall, the station agent of the
Central of Georgia railway at Smith
vile, testified to the simple fact that
he had received and had shipped thu
stomach contents to Atlanta and hat
he had received in return the results
of the analysis.
Mrs. ]. F. Kennedy, mother of Rob
ert Kennedy, who is also in jail char
ged with the murder of Mrs. Childers
gave the only testimony that might be
| termed sensational. Mrs. Kennedy
told an incoherent story about having
overheard Childers teasing his wife
about making inquiry for a seconf
hand coffin and Of his having talked
of securing a lot in the cemetery prio1
to the death Of his wife.
1t is understood that the state i.
nearly through introducing its wit
neses. This leads to the hope tina
the hearing of the witness will b.
concluded. Thursday morning not la
ter than moon, in which event the cas-
may be concluded on Thursday. 1t Il
understood here that Solicitor j. r
Williams has refused to enter a bill

NO INTEREST IS shown

Atlanta, Nov. S.-This campaign has

counter-denials.
Joe Brown headquarters take alter
nate slams at Pope Brown and Judge
Russell; Judge Russells forces dig Joe
Brown and Pope Brown; Pope Browns
manager slams Little Joe and Judge
