Albany, Ga, Oct Especial "A.
d. Rawlins, twenty-six. years old, was
shot and almost instantly willed last
night by Earl Deloach. The tragedy
occurred in front of boarding house
near the northern city limits, and is
said to have been witnessed by several
people.
The two men had had some slight
trouble during the day, but little a..
tention was paid to it. Loach went to
tention was paid to it. Deloach had
been drinking. He went to Rawlins'
boarding house and called him out,
Rawlins remarking as he left the
house that he was afraid he would
have trouble with Deloach
The shooting occurred almost i'm
.mediately after Rawlins left the house
the bullet from Deloachs pistol pass
ing through the body near the heart
AS Rawlins was dying, he is said to
have exclaimed, well here goes the
last of A. d. Rawlins"
Deloach was arrested at the depot
at an early hour this morning. He is
supposed to have been about to leave
on the Seminole Limited. Rawlins had
wife and child in Alabama.

Yesterday he achieved a great

Nothing doing" said the sheriff
sternly, as he pocketed the cell key
and walked away.
1t is not yellow journalism to say
that the sheriff was somewhat startled
this morning when he came down to
issue breakfast to his boarders and
found the two Slavonians with a glo-
rious jag on. One of them tried 70
kiss the sheriff through the bars, and
the other wept as he protested that he
was "bes lii sheriff he'd ever been
rested by"
The officer started an Investigation
He found that a kind-hearted frienl
of the two Slavs had heard their
thirsty cries and had procured one
quart of six-cylinder rum with ten
feet of rubber hose. He put the hose
through the bars of the window, and
poured the booze in at his end, while
the prisoners inside sucked on their

First Methodist church here.
The officers of the school were much
gratified at the success attending their
efforts and the contribution one of
them stated yesterday, really exceeded
their expectations when TIE many
other calls being made upon the public
just now is considered; contributions
for the Y. NJ. C. A, the hospital and

RECORD CROWD
FILLS ANERICUS
To OVERCOMING
THOUSANDS COME TO Circus
Business Streets Are JAM
med All Day

Americus held a typical circus crowd
yesterday, as was to have been expect
ed in this season of prosperity, as from
every town and hamlet within radius
of forty miles the folks came troop
ing to see the elephant. 1t was hap
py, care-free throng that combined
business with pleasure during the
"show day" visit to the metropolis.
Before sunrise the old farm wagon,
loaded to the gunwales with black de-
serters from the cotton patch, ratified
over the roadways and anchored in
town for the show. Thousands of ne
sroes thus took advantage of the off
cial holiday" declared by the circus.
The real crowds came, however, with
the arrival of the morning trains,
bringing an excited host of joy-seekers
from Albany, Leesburg, Smithvillr,
Cordele, Leslie DeSoto Huntington,
Plains, Preston, Ellaville, Oglethorpe
and numerous other south Georgia
towns, all bent upon the one object
that of seeing the wild gazook.
The morning Seaboard train, the
ever reliable "shoofiy", brought in
at least 500 people, every coach and
platform being jammed as long as one
could hold on. 1t was "show day. AMI
the folks were due to be here on time
The streets throuhgout the business
district presented scenes of unusual
animation as the assembled multitude
bought peanuts and red balloons AMI
awaited impatiently the coming of the
band wagon and street parade. 1t was
jostling pushing, good humored
mass of concentrated, concatenated hu-
manity, and every body imbibed the cir
Gus spirit.
Merchants reaped the harvest usual
" accorded them on a circus occasion
ard business in every line was good.
A circus does not take all the money
as enormously supposed. 1t is a dis
tributing agency, in which all reap Il
harvest And, besides, the people
| like it.
They liked the Robinson show yes
terday. 1t was the first circus here
in two years and the pent-up enthus-
iasm and spent-up dollars were alik )
given full play
The show gave two very creditable
performances and at both occasions,
afternoon and night, the big tent was
jammed to capacity. A circus draws
| like porous plaster and in Americas
| the best show town in all Georgia
| the circus charms and the populace are
willing to be divorced from the coin.

THE GRANDEST AND BEST TENTED SHOW
ANOTHER PREACHER is
JAILED AS MOONSHINER

Atlanta, Oct 13-Another Georgia
preacher of the mountain country has
been jailed for moonshinging. The
Rev. John Mcclure, an itinerant min
lister from Gilmer county tower, having
been convicted and sentenced to three
months Imprisonment for running a
whisky blockade. Mcclure asserts his
innocence.
He is not by any means the first
backwoods preacher who has been in
trouble with the revenue authorities,
though his case is not like that of the
others. There are existent in remo.e
corners of Georgia and Tennessee, a
type of sturdy, uneducated but by no
means criminal mountaineers, who be-
lieve in all honesty that they have a
God-given right to make whiskey if
they want to and that the interference
of the revenue officers amounts to =
restriction of their personal liberties
not make this plea. He simply asserts
that he is not guilty.

LANTERN SLIDES
STOLEN FROM
HILO HALL

That the path of the lecturer is not
strewn witirsroses and other products
of the flower garden is the opinion
of Prof. NIB Bairos. a teacher in the
Mckinley High School, who is at
present touring the island of Hawaii
delivering stereopticon lectures on
tuberculosis under the direction of
Itne board of health.
Mr. Bairos lectured in the Armory
Hall at Hilo during last week, and
after the crowd which attended the
first of the series had departed, and
the building had been locked q Ha-
waiian boy entered the structure by
the way of a rear window, and re-
moved therefrom the box of lantern
slides used to set of Mr.. Bairos' lee
lures. Upon entering the hall the
next morning to make preparations
for the evening exhibit, the lecturer
found that his slides had disappeared.
whereupon he Immediately notified
the sheriff's office. A sleuth was put
upon the trail, which led to the home
of a Hawaiian boy who is said to
be feeble-minded, and after cross
examination by the Hilo Sherlock
which would have made certain
former district attorney gnash his
molars in envy, the lad finally con-
fessed that he had entered the build
| ing and stolen the slides.
When questioned further the boy
named several places where he
claimed to have hidden the features
of the tuberculosis lectures, and they
were finally located quietly reposing
lin a coffin under the Hilo Furniture
store. The Hilo police say that the
Hawaiian boy has been found guilty
of a number of petty offenses, and
that he will be brought to Honolulu
and placed in the reform school.
Professor Bairos, however, had to
postpone his lecture that evening.
