PLANNING FOR
IMPROVEMENTS
IN LEE COUNTY
Mr.. Il. ]. BAGLEY INTERESTED
Plans to Establish Electrical
Plant

With the opening of the new year
Mr.. H. J. Bagley, of Americus, has
taken active steps to improve his es-
tate in Lee county, known as the
Maxwell place. Either this week or
next, Mr. w NJ. Crook, of the firm
of Crook & Lanneau, will go to Lees
burg to inspect the Messy Dell creek
on the Maxwell place, which flows in
to Muckalee creek, for the purpose Of
establishing an electrical plant to fur
nigh power for a grist mill at Lees
burg, and probably for electric lights
for that thriving town.
Mr.. Bagley has been interested in
this scheme for some time. The Messy
Dell creek is a bold stream that flows
from a large spring on the Maxwell
place to Muckalee creek, about two
miles distant, furnishing stream that
seasons and freshets do not material
ly affect Mr.. Bagley believes he can
readily develop by means of modern
turbine plant as much as one hundred
horsepower energy.
If the project is feasible one, Mr..
Bagley plans to construct a grist mill
at Leesburg, accessible to the Central
railway, and to furnish electric lights
and power to the people OF Leesburg,
| if that town becomes interested in the
project The power can readily be
transmitted to Leesburg from the plant
on the Maxwell place, while the rail-
road facilities at Leesburg would make
the shipping of the products of the
mill convenient and profitable Mr..
Bagley is awaiting the report of the
engineer who will inspect the stream.
If it is favorable, he says he will es-
tablish the plant within short timo.

AMERICUS BANKS

USUAL DIVIDENDS
HAD SEASON OF PROSPERITY
Large Sum viii Be Paid the
Stockholders

Having rounded out a year of COM
mercial prosperity, the five banks
in Americus are preparing to share
their riches with fortunate stockhoId-
ers in the way of dividends, fact to
be appreciated. The banks, all of them,
have prospered, and were never in bet
ter condition.. or with more cash in
their vaults.
The Americus banks are all upon a
fixed dividend basis, and pay dividends
either annually or semi-annually. Up
en- the basis existing the banks here
pay annually in dividends $29,550, up
on their aggregate capital stock #
$365,OOO.
The Bank of Commerce held it's an
nual meeting yesterday and declared
the usual dividend of seven per cent.
upon its capital stock of $65 900, thus
distributing $4,55O among its stock
holders.
The Americus National will hold it's
annual meeting next Tuesday, 7th, and
will pay the usual semi-annuaI divi-
dend of four per cent, upon it's capital
stock of 100000, thus distributing

The Planters Bank of Americus,
holds its annual meeting month
hence, upon its anniversary date, ami

CENTS
SEEMS ASSURED
FOR COTTON
PRICES TAKE HIGH FLIGHT
Higher Today Than In Two
Years Past

Thirteen cents for cotton in the
Americus market was the prediction
made yesterday by Americus ware
housemen, as they watched the futures
market go up to an altitude not reach
ed in two years. Well above thirteen
cents the futures market went yester-
day, and it is still advancing. The jan
uary option went as high as 1910
cents at the close, with March at 1884
and May at the same figure, both rec
ord advances.
In the Americus market good mid
ding grades were quoted at II 81
cents, with middling at u IL cents,
although any large line of fine cotton
had it been put upon the boards, would
doubtless have sold for 13 cents, read
lily, such is the demand upon the part
of spinners for high grade cotton.
The advance of the January option
yesterday to we'll above 13 cents would
seem to insure much higher prices for
the remnant of the cotton crop than
has yet been paid this season,

DISTINCT LOSS
TO AMERICUS
IN CHANGE
Which REMOVES Mr.. GAMBLE
He Has Host Of Friends in
the City

In severing his connection with The
Times Recorder which he owned ana
directed for nearly six years, in order
to devote his time and energies .
his paper, the Naval Stores Review,
and to special newspaper work IN
Savannah, Americus and Sumter coun-
ty will sustain distinct loss in the
departure of Mr.. Thomas Gamble, Jr.
A trained and experienced newspa-
per man, in which business he has been
engaged since young manhood, he
brought to The Times Recorder a
strong personality which has left a
lasting impression upon the publica-
tion to which he has devoted many of
his best years. Since assuming con-
troll of The Recorder, Mr. Gam
Bile has placed it in the forefront OF
the influential Georgia newspapers,
both daily and weekly. He installed
an entirely new mechanical equip
ment, and in it's new and commodious
quarters, possessing every modern con-
yenience and facilities for good work,
it is probably the peer of any paper
published in city the size of Ameri-
Gus
1t has always been the pride of Mr.
Gamble to watch the growth and pro-
gress of Americus along commercial
and industrial lines and in general de-
yelopment; and to that end he contrib
uted largely and his means and ener-
gies. Ever ready to aid where his SER
vices were needed, much of the pros
perity of the city and county is due
to his well-directed efforts. A gentle
man of culture, refinement and engag-
ing personality, he has made many
warm friends here who will deeply re-
gret to lose him as a citizen and CO.
worker for Americus, and whose sim
cere good wishes will ever attend him.

PARCELS POST
INAUGURATED
ON YESTERDAY
SYSTEM TO Be POPULAR
Mr.. c. D. MCBath Sent First
Parcel Here

Yesterday witnessed the Inaugural
tion of the parcels post system here,
in conjunction with its establishment
at all postoffices and similar stations
in the United States.
The system was taken advantage OF
here promptly, and a number of pack
ages passed through the local Office
yesterday. the first day of the use of
the system here. The first person to
send package by the parcels post
here was Mr.. c. d. McBath. Mr.. Nc
Bath christened the local system post
ing two parcels, contents not specified.
Not only here but throughout the
entire state the system was inaugu-
rated most auspiciously. At the local
postoffice, it is thought that in few
days the use of the new system will
become prevalent. The public should
adjust itself to the parcels post with
in short time.
Under the new system all parcels
that weigh more than four ounces,
which can be sent at all through the
mails, must be sent by the parcels
post system. Those packages under
four ounces in weight are sent in the
former manner, with ordinary postage
stamps. The parcels post packages, o;
course, require the parcels post
stamps.

Not Hurt

AS the result of a head-on collision
on the Leslie road, six miles out Of

this and two other young men were
going to Cordele after a visit here. Mr..

was not his. Mr.. Mathis is in Cordele,
and a statement from him could not
be obtained Both cars are rammed
together, and yesterday were still on
the east side of the road. Both gem

Mr. Simmons states that it is true
that he and his sister decided last
Sunday morning to abandon Mrs..
King to her fate, but that at that
time they were not in possession Of
the real facts.
1t is stated that in Jones county
there is a revulsion of feeling in :
