ing for pensions for INDECENT soldiers

the decision was, handed down, notified
the court that he would prepare en- ap-
peal at once and the case will be taken

cision.

remarked that the principal contention
of the State " as that the Confederate
soldiers should not be pensioned as they
had not rendered any service to the
State of Kentucky during the war.

view, as he believed that they had rem
dered a great service and should be
pensioned.
The constitutionality of the act of
the last Legislature was argued Friday
in the State Fiscal Court before Judge
Stout by Assistant Attorney General
Charles II. Morris for the State and
Col. w. j. Stone, Commissioner of

FALL SEASON WILL BE
ACTIVE in BUILDING
Following Unusually Active
Summer Season

While there is the usual midsummer
lethargy in building way in Ameri-
Gus just at this time, it came only at
the end of period of unusual activity
in house building, and that it will
be followed by another very busy sea-
son in the early fall seems assured,
in the opinion of property owners.
1t is a fact that a larger number OF
fine homes were built during the early
summer than ever before for like
time. In nearly every portion of
Americus, carpenters and brick masons
were busy for months.
The fall season will witness the
beginning of another building era
which will include the two brick
school buildings in East Americus and
Brooklyn Heights, besides many frame
structures for which plans have been
made already.

ports to the state department from
the American legation at Peking to-
day declared that in the fighting near
Shangha the navy being regularly

ence between the president and Am.
bassador Wilson, which may not take
place until Monday, as word was re-
ceived at the white house today tnat
the latter could not reach here be-

While the plan of mediation was

DEMAND FOR
PECANS BEST
EVER KNOWN
ACCORDING TO AN EXPERT
Who Reviews Last Years
Development

To the large number of nut growers
and owners of pecan trees in Ameri-
Gus and this section, the following
extract from a review Of pecan de-
velopment for 1912, from well known
farm and orchard journal is of mucR
interest:
can extensive increase in the or
chard area; an increased demand for
the best trees for planting and in
creased confidence in the commercial
pecan development were some of the
prominent features.
Commercial planting has continued
on a large scale in Southern Georgia,
lower Alabama and West Florida. 4
representative nut journal reports th2r
upon Information at hand half nit
lion trees were set out in 1912, which
represents the planting OF 20, 900 acre..
This includes only commercial plant
ing.
"The price of the nuts attracts much
attention. AS to what they will bring
in the future Is merely conjecture. 1t
is interesting to note, however, the
heavy advance in the price of th5
common Seeding, which has takea
place since the marketing of the i'm
proved varieties began. Reports from
Texas show that the wild pecan ten
years ago brought from to cents 4
pound, while in 1912 it sold at double
the figure.
