MAYOR MATHIS is GAME
In time OF TROUBLE
Makes an Arrest in Helping
Officer

Mayor J. Edward Mathis carried a
new cane yesterday in place of one
he used the day previous and which
went into the discard as the result Of
ia struggle between His Honor and a
burly black ruf1n whose arrest the
mayor effected while assisting an Of
ficer.
And he landed his coon in the coop
all right, too.
It was an entirely new experience
for Mayor Mathis, but he was right
on the job when emergency demanded
that he act.
Two negroes were fighting on Lee
street, near Church, where no Off
Ger was likely to see them. But the
ever discerning chief executive OF
Americas saw them and, with CitH
Marshal w D. Smith, went after them
Each grabbed coon, and loaded
them in an automobile to haul them
to the barracks. Marshal Smith S
bird flew the coop, with William in
hot pursuit, and with this as an in
centive the mayors prize attempted
to do marathon stunt out Lee street
towards where the pine trees grow.
1t was then that the mayors cane
did yoeman duty.
"Bos, jes please you stop dat, an
sho' will go to the callaboose right
now, all right" sang out the aston
ished darkey, who was thus put en-
tirely out of the fight in the very first
round.
81 am satisfied that you are going"
was the mayors rejoinder. And he
went, too.

While making some professional

checked girl trudging towards home,

engage her in conversation were un-

Yes" or No. not another word

A few weeks later l was called to
the little girls home to attend another
member of the family for slight all
ment. When about to leave, the
mother spoke up smilingly, and said:
do you remember my little girl rid
ing with you few weeks ago? Well
when she got home she said, Mamma
rode from school with the doctor
and he kept talking with me and talk
ing with me, and l just didn't know
what to do, for you know doctors
charge you when you talk with them
and l didn't have any money"

ALBANY WOMAN WAS
ATTACKED BY man
Miss Irene Crockett Had q
Desperate Struggle

Albany, Ga, June 6-When Miss
Irene Crockett stepped suddenly out
onto the back porch of her sisters
home expecting to encounter that sis,
ter, whom Miss Crockett suspected Of
an attempt to play a practical joke.
she met instead a man who deluged
her face, neck and clothing with chic
form and in few minutes from the
fumes of the anesthetic and the nat
ural fright, Miss Crockett became I'M
conscious a moment after she return
ed to the hall and screamed for help.
Miss Crockett's home is in Carroll
ton, and she is visiting her sister,
Mrs. G. W. Wallace, in Albany. Mrs
Wallace left the house for a moment
to get bill changed at a neighbours
Miss Crockett remained in the
house Hearing a noise on the back
porch, the young lady decided that
Mrs Wallace was on the back porch
trying to brighten her just for joke.
So sure was she that her sister was
on the porch that Miss Crockett did
not hesitate to throw open the door
suddenly and run out, determined 20
take her sister by surprise.
But instead of Mrs. Wallace, the
young woman encountered a man,
who pulled something from his hip
pocket, and before Miss Crockett had
time to even guess what he was
about the man dashed a quantity Of
some liquid stuff in her face. The
pungent odor almost overcame her,
but she had the presence of mind 10
run into the hall and scream for help.
A moment later when Mrs. Wal
lace entered through the front door
she found Miss Crockett prone on the
floor unconscious and the fumes OF
chloroform filled the house. An off,
Ger was called in and a d1ligent search
made for the man hut without sue
cess.
Miss Crockett is still suffering from
the effects of her thrilling experience,
but no permanent ill effects are eX-

CAN'T We HAVE A CLEANUP
DAY!"

Why can't Americas have a Clean
ing-up Day." That is question
which every citizen and every house
wife in the city should give the most
careful consideration, for it seems
that we are delinquent in this partic-
ular.
One has but to refer to the fact that
our sister city, Albany, is to have a
general cleaning up and tidying of its
municipal uncleanly and unsightly
places tomorrow to see that We are
Ineglecting an oportunity to benefit
ourselves in the same way. There $
surely no better time to devote atter-
ton to this vital question than at this
period of the year.
With the coming of the summer
season, every pile of filth becomes the
breeding place for myriad of flies,
which scatter in every direction 10
disseminate their disease-breeding
germs into every section of our homes
and offices. The menace of the fly is
sufficient, if properly understood, to
cause every home-keeper and every
one else to be willing to enter into a
crusade that will aid in keeping down
the large numbers of this insect pest
which daily threatens our lives In

PRAISE TO AMERICUS IS

eral Scott The old Light Infantry

ever before in the service.
Captain C. P. Davis and his com
pany are quite naturally delighted
with such complimentary mention
and from such high source
Here is Major Palmers' comment
upon the Americas company.
This company is in thoroughly eX-
cellent and highly satisfactory condi-
ton in all respects, as was the case
last year also; due to the lack OF
home range facilities, such men IS
qualified in target firing had to go to
Albany to do so, and their interest is
highly creditable to all
"In property losses for the year
this company stands sixth; but taking
into consideration its record in this
respect for the past two years, it is
believed to be excelled by none in the
excellence of its prevention of loss and
of the fine condition of all proeprty
on hand.
This is considered an excellent and
efficient company, creditable to all
officers and men belonging to it.
His report regarding the Alabny
and Americas companies will prove OF
unusual interest. He makes some
pretty caustic criticism of the Albany
company, and on the other hand gives
very high praise to the Americas com
pany.
