All Of the criminal cases on the

in all on the docket. The court will

Of them, the Davis case and the cases
of the two young Bailey men charged
with the murder OF young Frank Wynn
Of Jesup
The case against George Edwards,
charged with the murder of c. A.
( Shaw, will go over for the terms, as
change of venue has been asked.
There are still three other murder
cases on the docket, and, while the
court will endeavor l. dispose OF all
of them next week. il is hardly prob
able that it will be DOR
The case of Charlr }imms, also
charged with the murdr; of the Greek
merchant, may also be postponed, in
asmuch as another negro has now
been arrested charged with the crime.
Besides the murder cases there ar"
a large number of others on the dock
ct, but as court will, it is understood,
adjourn for the term the end of next
week, many of the cases will have to
wait until the next regular session.

THE DAHMER CO. GOES INTO
BANKRUPTCY.

The extensive general mercan-

Of this city went into voluntary
bankruptcy the first Of the week.
The estimated assets of the firm
are about $4,000, while the La
billtieS don't exceed eighteen or
twenty thousand dollars. The
general business depression and
the over-purchase of goods prior
to the European war, on which
they have been unable TO realize,
are the reasons assigned for GO
my inlo bankruptcy. We regret
to note the failure of this firm,
and hope that they may succeed
in making satisfactory arrange
mentS with their creditors, and
resume business at an early date.

LILLIAN RUSSELL IN WILD
FIRE"

'Rah! 'Rah! 'Rah. boys! Lillian
Russell's in the movies; the World
Film Corporation has put her in
them. She's to be seen in a five
part photodrama, "Wildfire," at
the Greenwood Theatre, Friday,
February 26th.
This film is based on a play
that-but, never mind the film or
the play, it's Lillian Russell that
we have to deal with. Here she
is on the screen, as large as life
and just as natural, her very own
self, for us all to contemplate,
criticize, advise, appreciate.
II would be absurd to say that
Miss Russell acts In this film. She
doesn't. "She just walks on and
she just walks on to quote Louie
Freear, apropos another "Iydy Of
the stige." She goes through her
part, does Miss Russell, carrying
the burden of the racing drama
all by herself; defeating Williams;
righting wrongs; out-Holmes-ing
Sherlock Holmes; essaying deeds
Of derring.do, like a good hearted
Joan of Arc; but always with a
kindly smile and a complaisance
of demeanor thai captivates you
while it fails to convince you that
Miss Russell is in very dead
earnest.
She may be; but she doesn't
show it. She walks through her
part with all the superb stateh-
ness of a Fifth Avenue New
York; Juno out for an after
moons airing. She gets there by
psychology; she plays a thinking
part; she thinks (and looks) nice
ly and wears some stunning frocks
in the process. See this great
production.

Thy YOU SHOULD BUY FROM
EGREENWOOD MERCHANTS

There are ten excellent reasons
hy you should buy from Green
ood merchants. Many more
easons could be cited, but these
hou,d especially appeal to you at
bis time:
First-Keeps the money at
lone.
Second-lt's a powerful help to
bcal industries.
Third-It helps those who help
b, which is our duty to do.
Il Fourth-Home merchants and
heir goods are more reliable,
heir goods are Of higher quality,
Snd they sell them to us at as low,
f not lower, prices than those
&harged by mail order houses for
hoods of inferior quality.
n Fifth-Takes much less time,
Ind is more convenient in every
Respect.
1 Sixth-Home merchants some
lines give credit, but mail order
ousac never do
4 Seventh-Brings about strong
kr spirit of cooperation, under
btanding and friendship, among
Everybody in our home town and
kicinity.
h Eighth-And also brings greater
prosperity to every person in our
home town and vicinity.
v Ninth-Can handle and closely
Examine merchandise before buy
ing and can quickly exchange
if desired.
Tenth-It is for the good ofyou
and yours, and not for others and
theirs thousands Of miles away,
and is strictly in accord with the
|soundest business principles.
