river.
DR.. Anderson, a dentist at Leslie,
identified certain dental work which
he had done on Wade's teeth. thus es-
tablishing beyond question the identity
Of the corpse as that of Wade. A belt
buckle with the letter "W" thereon
was found on Wade's body when taken
from the river, and relatives and
friends recognized this as Identical
with the belt worn by Wade Just before
he disappeared. The low-cut tan shoes
found upon the body were also identi-
fled as those worn by Wade when he
left his home at Leslie on Thursday,
August 18th. The last link in the chain
OF Identification was the finding of a
soft drink CHECK" issued by the Leslie
Drug Co. in the watch pocket of the
trousers found upon the decomposed
body fished from the river. This small
metallic disc was found among q
quantity of matches, and with these
vas the only article found in the
dead mans wearing apparel. The
pockets, with the one exception noted,
had all been rifed and turned inside
out.
Following the inquest and finding Of
the coroner's jury the body was
brought from Montezuma in an auto
mobile by Sheriff Harvey and Solicitor
Zach Childers. The remains were pre-
pared for burial at the undertaking
parlors of the Allison Furniture Co.
while crowd of curious persons stood
outside and discussed the case from va
rious angles.
ClOptOn Gives Reward.
The Times-Recorder was authorized
this morning to state that Walter Clop-
ten, kinsman of Wade, offers re
ward of $3.50 for the arrest of the party
or parties who committed the assault,
with evidence to convict. The state
of Georgia through Governor Harris
has offered the same form of reward
under the same conditions
Five hundred dollars are now at
stake for the apprehension of the MUIR
derer or murderers of Walter Wade.
The little community of Leslie is stir
red, and Americus feels deeply the de-
velopments in the case. Every indica-
ton points to foul deed, which if
brought to light will array fearful
force of public opinion against the
guilty parties.
Negro Gets Reward.
A draft on the Bank of Leslie for
$3.50 was made out at Montezuma
Monday night for the negro who found
the body. This was the reward of the
people of Leslie, DeSoto and Cobb for
the recovery of the body

Martin, who appeared here in The
Butterfly on the Wheel, and several

DRAMATIC READER TO
Be HERE THIS WEEK

Because of inability to secure the
Pinney theater for a suitable date the
sixth number on the Boise lecture
course will be given at the Christian
church on Saturday night Of this week.
Moron Olsen. who viii fill this number,
differs from the type of man who ordi-
narilv chooses public reading as a pro-
fession. He has the physique of an
Apollo, stands six feet two, and looks
more like the ideal right guard Of 4
varsity football team than a reader and
impersonator. And his art is just as
big as his physique. TIe reads in an
entirely different way than does the
average reader There Is bigness and
breadth in his grasp Of the possibili-
ties of his theme. and his readings seem
less representations Of certain eharae-
tiers than the living embodiment OF the
characters themselves. Splendidly
equipped BY nature. and trained in
the platform art by that master teach
err LELAND Powers, Moron Olsen has
demonstrated the possession of that
sure grasp of arts requirements which
lead to the vers top Of his chosen pro-
fession
A sufficient number Of the best seats
in the auditorium will be reserved for
the holders Of season tickets.
