CROP PROSPECTS GOOD.

Condition in Terrell and Surround
ing Counties Are Good.
Terrell county crop conditions are
much better than have been report
ed, and there is no reason to fear a
crop failure. Wonderful improve
ment has been noticed since the re-
cent rains.
A gentleman who has been over
considerable scope of this section
says:
81 should say that on the whole
crop conditions are good. There has
been a great deal of pessimistic talk
about poor crops, but this is uniusti-
fable. The cotton and corn crops
are in good condition considering
the circumstances.

NO FOUNDATION FOR The REPORT
Judge Cheatham Has Not Received
Letter From Harrison Floyd Say
ing He Wanted to Tell Truth.

A report is current that Judge w.
B. Cheatham had received letter
from Harrison Floyd, a negro who is
serving life term in the penitentiary
for being accessory to the murder
twenty-one years ago of Mr.. j. G.
Wells, a prominent citizen of Bron-
wood, and for which Harrison Ste
vens was hanged as principal in the
tragedy in which Floyd states that
he wanted to tell the true facts of
the homicide. In this letter, accord
ing to the report. Floyd said he and
Stevens were innocent of the crime,
but knew who committed it.
Judge Cheatham informs The News
that he has not only not received
such letter, but that he has not
had a communication of any kind
whatever from a convict, and is at
loss how such report was started.
Mr.. Wells was assassinated in
Kinnachofonee swamp, and the crime
caused great indignation in this sec
ton.

CITIZENS TAKING HAND
EXPRESSING A CHOICE OF LOTS
FOR FEDERAL BUILDING.
"A List Is Being Circulated for Sig
natures, and Many Have Made
known Their Preference.

ICING OHCuIdttu IOf Sig
natures, and Many Have Made
Known Their Preference.
New interest has developed in the
government building to be erected
IN Dawson, for which an appropria-
ZION was made by congress a year
and a half ago.
Several lots were offered as a site
Tor the structure, and some months
ago after visits from two or three
inspectors, who looked them over, it
was generally understood that the
residence lot of the late Mrs. A. ].
carver Sr., on the southeast corner
OF Stonewall and Lee streets had
been decided upon.
The location of the building was
believed to be settled and nothing
further was thought of the matter
until there appeared upon the streets
three or four days ago a paper
on which citizens of the city were
asked to express their choice between
the corner lot and the Farnum lot.
the latter being on Main street, in
front of the Dawson Inn.
Citizens are expressing themselves
as being in favor of the Farnum lot
on Main street by about three to
one.
When all have been given an OPP
portunity to sign the paper and make
known where they would like for
the postoffice to be located it will
be forwarded to the authorities at
Washington. Whether or not it will
have any influence on them and cause
them to change their plans is prob
lematical and remains to be seen.
What the people generally would
most like to see is the erection of the
building without further delay. The
location isn't a matter of so very
much Importance.

vorite In betting for their ten-round
bout here next Thursday night. Rit-
chic. who will defend his title OF

man from whom ne won It, is 40 the
long end OF the odds.
When the matchmaker Of the local
club signed the two, Wolgnsts recent
defeat of Joe Rivers and other indi-
cations that he had come hnck, -
made them confident he would be
able TO put up a great fight 10 regain
his lost laurels The public generally
does not share in this belief, but GER
tain authorities credit the Michigan
man with ability to surprise Richie.
It took a guarantee of $4,000 to
induce Ritchlc to box Wolgast. lie
has been stunning some of the nu-
merous boxers who aspired to a
chance at his title, holding off from
several good offers, that he might get
big money" This he succeeded in
doing for the Milwaukee club has
promised him, it is understood, an
alternative Of 40 per cent Of the gate
receipts.
Special trains from Chicago and
points in Wisconsin. northern Michi-
gan and Minnesota are expected to
bring large crowds for the match.
Richie has agreed to weigh 1So
pounds at O'Clock ON the day of the
contest and is reported to pe within
two pounds of the required notch.
Wolgast is said TO be within pound
of the WEIGHT.
