COTTON BRINGS
TOPMOST PRICE
AMER|CUS TODAY
EMBARGO HAS NO ILL EFFECT UP
ON VALUES.

Americas cotton buyers are today
paying the seasons topmost prices for
cotton, and farmers are readily selling
their bales around Z IA cents for the
best. Since Monday, when the British
cotton contraband bugaboo went into
effect, the market has advanced thirty
to thirty-fNe poins, and today is
strong and steady. The situation in
Europe seems decidedly more favora-
BILE to the entente nations battling
down Germany's militarism, and witt
this more fully assured cotton prices
will, indeed, begin to soar.

DR. WILLIAMSON
AGED MINISTER
DEATH STRICKEN
BELOVED MAN PASSED AWAY A.
ELLAVILLE.

Announcement this morning of the
passing away of the venerable and
much beloved Rev. Robert F. Will
hanson was received with sincerest
regret among hundreds here who for
half century had known and esteem
ed this faithful and able minister and
man. The end came last evening at
his home in Ellaville, and was as calm
and peaceful as the pure and holy life
that he had led for well nigh seventy
seven years.
For some time past Mr. Williamson s
health had been rather feeble, ard
the end, therefore, was not entirely
unexpected.
Than Mr.. Williamson, or as hun
dreds of friends called him affection
ately Uncle Bob," there were few
men in the South Georgia conference
more widely known or more generally
esteemed. He had, in his long ca
reer in south Georgia, been pastor in
many communities, including Ameri-
Gus, and none knew the kind, gentle
and generous man--the friend of ev-
eryone-except to trust and love him
to the utmost.
Mr.. Williamson is survived by d
large family, including several sons
and daughters and grandchildren, who
will ever revere his sainted memory.
A faithful and consecrated toiler in the
vineyard here, he has gone to claim a
bright reward on high Among his
sons is Mr.. Samuel Williamson, of
Americas, his other descendants liv-
ing near Ellaville, and throughout this
section of the state
The funeral services will held this
afternoon at Ellavil1e, where he had
long resided. Dr.. A. Thomas, OF
First Methodist church, was among
the many friends from this city at
tending the funeral exercises.

OF the fact thst Colonel DOGGY con.
coded strokes TO all but two Of the 20

the only one to get the better Of him.
Both the Honolulu and Schofield
service golfers, who play their second
match next Saturday at the Country
Club, are very keen to secure Colonel
Bogey for their team, but II is under
stood that he does not feel justified in
joining forces with either side. He
says he will be at the 18th hole tc

rnrfially.
Play went on both morning and az
tcrnoon yesterday, and good golfng
conditions prevailed. There was tie
