The Reason Why.

The News Item came to you a
trifle late last week, suppose you
took particular notice of the fact,
cursed the editor little and then
forgot all about it. But really we
were not to blame, the extreme
cold weather of last week froze our
linking apparatus to standstill
and there it stood, and then to add
to the trouble the sudden change
in the weather seemed to give our
old press the rheumatism, anyway
it ran awful hard and with great
effort. Perhaps it was grippe. We
have entered it in profit and loss
account, charged it up to winter
and credited it to the weather
man.

CRACK GREW
On the Local Traction Line
Consists of Father
and Son.

FAERMoNT, Jan. 26 - Guy
Smith, conductor; John Smith, mo-
torman," read the reports of GER
tain run on the lClarksburg inter
unban of the local line. Owing to
the prevalence of the Smiths in
this section, only those who are ac-
quainted with the two on this run
know that they are father and son.
Guy is the conductor. and he is
regarded as an excellent one, while
his daddy is one of the veteran
motormen on the system.
The father is often joked by his
comrades because he is virtually
working under his son. He mus,
obey the boys signals and run the
car to his orders. However, the
conditions do not bother either and
they enjoy the fact that they can be
together in their work. The case is
said to be remarkable one, as no
other instance on record shows a
father on the front end with a son
giving him the bells from the rear
of the car.

the outcome Of the contest for the last
week. cry;
Manager DFesbach and his team Of
warriors have been counting how
many victories they are going to win
all week and in their estimation it is
not necessary to play the games, but
just mark three wins to their credit
and do not take up the valuable time
of rolling the games.
Manager Coughlin and the members
of his team have not made any boosts
of what they are going to do, but they
asure the bowling fans that they are
going to do their best. Not making
any instnuations they just say that the
Loar and White team were talking
like the Crescents before they played
the Crystals in the first half, the re-
suit was three victories for the
Crystals.

AGED CITIZEN, IS DEAD
Valued Resident of Sumter
Passes Away

The death on Sunday evening, Nov.
"a, of Mr.. James A. Hagerson, while
deplored among his friends and family,
was not unexpected. Although the
deceased had been i'll only few days,
he gradually grew worse until the
final summons came at an early hour
Sunday night.
The deceased was eighty-one years
old. He was born in North Carolina.
In his early youth his parents moved
to Sumter county, Georgia, where ne
was resident the remainder of his
life, and was esteemed among Sum-
ter's most highly respected citizens.
He was a veteran of the civil war
having served all four years. He is
survived by his wife, one sister, and
three brothers.
The funeral services were conducted
Monday afternoon at the Presbyterian

jim WOODWARD
IS GOING AFTER
Beavers HIDE
MAY GUST CHIEF OF POLICE
Lively Stir in Atlanta City
Politics

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 10-Jim Wood
wards administration is going to open
up with a fire-and-lightning fight TO
ruin Chief of Police Beavers, accord
ing to warlike rumors that are float
ing in city hall corridors today.
If the fight is precipitated. it is
going to mean stormy times in local
politics and will bring up all over
again the question of whether Atlanta
is to have a segregated vice district
According to the program, which is
attributed to Mr.. Woodward, he is
going to appoint Alderman A. H. Van
Dyke as chairman of the police COM
mittee of council, and Alderman Van
Dyke is going to lead the movement to
, oust Beavers.
1t will be recalled that when Chief
Beavers closed "the houses in our
midst" he received the support of
the Men and Religion Movement, an
organization which calls itself philan-
thropic and religious, but which made
a bitter political fight in the news
papers to defeat Woodward in the re-
cent primary election.

INVITATIONS
EXTENDED TO
!. ILLINOISIANS
BY PEOPLE OF The CITY
Both by City Officials and
Board Of Trade

Invitations were extended yesterday
by both the city of Americus and the
Board of Trade to Governor Charles
IS. Deneen and party who are to come
70 Americus the latter part of the
.montn, to be guests of the city here
the night prior to the unveiling Of
the Illinois state monument, Decem-
Der 90
1t has been practically determined
for some time that such an invitation
would be attended by the city to the
Illinois party, but formal action was
not taken by the city authorities until
Monday evening. In accordance with
the action of that body as expressed at
that time an invitation was extended
yesterday by City Clerk and Treasurer
Harvey w. Weaver to the party in be-
half of the city. while Mayor Mathis
also issued an invitation to them in
his official capacity as mayor. The
Board of Trade through its secretary
has likewise issued an invitation to
the party from Illinois, which is,
therefore, very much invited to visit
Americus while on the trip south.
AS the party will arrive at Ander-
sonville on the nineteenth, the invita-
tion is extended to the members of the
party to come to Americus that even
ing and to spend the evening here
prior to the unveiling of the monu-
nent, which will occur on December
20. AS the party will arrive on special
trains, the trip may readily be made
to Americus on the nineteenth and
then to .Andersonyille in time next day
for the exercises. 1t seems practically
certain that the invitations will be
accepted.

CAN'T PLAY
BASKET BALL
IN THE CITY
NO COURT AVAILABLE HERE
Most Games viii Be Played
Elsewhere

On account of the fact that since
the closing of the local Young Mems
Christian Association no building has
been available where basket bail
games can be played. on account OF
the fact that a special court is re-
quired for basket bali. it will be nee
essary for the games to be played by
the local High School team this sea-
son to be played in other cities.
There is a basket ball court at the
High School out of doors, where the
practice games can be played. There
is, however, no court available either
at the High School or elsewhere in
the city where the match games can
be played, for there is no building
equipped with the seats and other ac-
cessories.
The High School team is rapidly
rounding into shape, and il will be a
formidable one when it goes up against
the other teams with which it will be
matched The basket ball team here
has been notable for its prowess on
the court, and it is hoped that an
other winning team viii be put out
this season.

TO RESENTMENT
JUSTICE, SLAIN BY DOLLARS
Is Charge Made by Atlanta
Preacher

Atlanta, a., Dec 10.-Leading
members of the Atlanta bar are SO
outraged at public utterances made
by Rev. Hugh Wallace, pastor of the
Jones Avenue Baptist church, reflect
ing ON the honor and integrity of the
judges of the local courts, that they
are talking of prosecuting the minis
ter for slander.
The Rev. Mr.. Wallace is quoted as
saying from his pulpit:
Justice in Fulton county is weighed
by the dollar mark. God have mercy
on the courts of community when
they reach such condition as this!"
And further in the same sermon
"Red-handed murderers have been
turned loose on this community by the
courts simply because they were
