Council will attend the conference to
be held on the subject of brick

levy for streets this year and spend
$4,000 on permanent streets is
meeting with great favor. The new
law empowers the city to apportion
one-half of the cost of streets on
property owners. to be paid in war;

cd has its objections and many citi.
zens are coming forward with ar
offer to pay 81 90 to $3.50 per front
foot to supplement the amount to be
raised by the city and make the sun
to be spent this year $4,000. This
will be enough to build ten or twelve
blocks of streets and the same
amount could be constructed mex,
year.

Mr.. John W. Greer, of Triton, who is
closely connected with the mana g.
ment ii the Americus, Triton and ~
lantic railway, is a visitor in Ameri-
Gus and talked interestingly yesterday
of the progress that is being made in
surveying the route for the new road.
There are two surveying squads busy
in making the preliminary surveys.
The squad from Americus, which
began work recently, will survey the
greater part of the route, distance of
about 65 miles. The remaining part,
which is about As miles, will be sur
veyed from Triton. The local firm of
Crook & Lanneau have charge of the
survey which is progressing from this
terminus of the road, while the other
surveying squad is in charge of c.
w. Lewis, formerly surveyor for the
Southern railway.
Crook & Lanneau have already com
pleted stadium survey of the route
from Americas to Oakfield They are
now engaged in making the prelimin,
airy survey, which will be used in maxi
ing up the estimates of cost for the
road. 1t is roughly estimated that the
cost of constructing the new road will
range from 100000 to $SOO,OOO. 1t is
hoped that preliminary surveys will be
completed in about month, and it is
thought that within two months the
surveyors will be able to make up
their tabulations Of the cost

DEATH OCCURRED SUNDAY
She Has Been iii For Some
time

The funeral services of Mrs. George
w. Riley, who passed away at an early
hour on Sunday morning, were held
yesterday at Arlington, Ca, where the
family resided. Several friends ac-
companied the bereaved family, the
funeral party having left Americus at
$50 o'clock yesterday morning for
Arlington.

tending over a period of several
months, the death of Mrs. Riley was

AMERICUS INSTITUTE
WAS The VICTOR
In Lively COIOred Football
Game

In game that closed the season as
far as the Americus Institute is con-
cerned that well known colored insti-
tuition defeated the eleven of the Geor-
gia State Industrial college, of Sa-
vannah, Saturday afternoon by a score
of IA to 6.
The game, though fast and decis-
i've one, was marred by continual
wrangling, of which the visitors were
guilty. 1t made the third consecutive
defeat that the local institution has
administered to the colored state
schools of three states, Florida and
Alabama being the other two. A large
crowd witnessed the final game of the
season.
The victories of the local eleyens are
attributed in large measure to the ex
cellent coaching given by V. c. Turner
who was member of the Atlanta Bap
tist college team which for eight years
did not have it's goal line crossed b!
an opponent. Coach Turner was con
sidered then the best colored tackle ii
the country.

D. A. R.

After having been postponed sew
eral times, the children's party that
has been carefully planned by the
Council of Safety chapter of the
