Signals.
There we're a good many days after
that-not days at all. really. but an in
terminable period of night-which
were broken for Jeanne by no ray OF
hope whatever. She kept Philip and
herself alive. from day to day, and this
occupation left her hardly time enough
10 think whether there was anything
10 hope for or not
Much of the time Philip was deliri
GUS; sometimes violently so. and yet
she often had TO leave him. When she
did so. 1t was with no certainty at all
that she would find him alive upon her
return.
At last the conviction was forced
upon her that Philip was actually on
the road TO recovery. His delirium be-
came less violent and occurred at long
err intervals. The frightful condition
of his wounds began vlsibly to i'm
prove. lnstinctively she resisted this
conviction as long as she could. refus-
ing almost passionately TO begin to
hope-for the return of hope brought
an almost intolerable pain with it.
Without hope there had been no fear,
no apprehension-just as in a frozen
limb there 10 no pain. But. as the pos
sibility OF his recovery became plain
er. the slenderness of the thread by
which his life was hanging became
palmer, too. A thousand chances
which she could not guard against
might cut the thread and destroy the
hope new. born.
lie was able, at last after a long
sleep and really hearty meal of sus.
tanning food-which she hardly dared
give him-to get up and walk out OF
their shelter TO the star-vaulted beach.
Fifty PAGES or so was all he was equal
TO: but at the end of the little prom.
snade he expressed a Discrimination to
go back TO the stu1y little shed which
had been the scene OF his long illness.
The clean. wide boundless air was
bringing back the zest for life to
him. So Jeanne brought out from
the hut a great bundle OF furs and
made a nest OF them on the beach.
and there he lay back and she sat
down Leside him

Mrs. Rebecca Timer, one of the old

known here, died Wednesday night at

and for sixty-three years had been
a resident of Americas having lived
alone with her daughter, Miss Annie
Timer. She was a member of the Pres
byterian church and a constant attend
ant there during her long residence
here, when able to go in her wheel

HEARING NEXT MONDAY
FOR ADDITIONAL Train
On Central from Eufdula to
SmithVille

Americus merchants as well as the
general public are interested in the
hearing to be had at Macon on Monday
regarding the petition of citizens OF
Dawson, Bronwood, Shellman, Cuth-
bert, Eufaula and other towns be-
tween the last named city and Smith
vile for an additional train service.
The Central railway authorities win
pass upon the matter on Monday, and
it is very generally believed that the
additional train desired will be put on.
Many business men and residents gem
orally of the towns named have pc
titioned the Central railway to put on
morning train from Eufaula to
Smithville, a distance Of sixty mi es,
where t would connect with train No.
s, Albany to Macon, which arrives in
Americas at GAO o'clock
II this train service is granted, as
is expected, it will afford residents of
Dawson and the other towns named the
opportunity Of coming to Americas or
Macon in the early morning and re-
turning home either at noon or in the
evening, as they may desire.
