OUR PAUL REVERE.


Paul Revere made the famous mid
night ride that aroused the sleeping
Minute Men along the way. By this
act he rendered great service to his
country, for on the following day the
great battle of Lexington was won.
The battle for commercial suprema-
cy in south Georgia is being fought
between Cordele and her sister cities.
The commercial gateway to the rich
section around us for many miles is
being determined. Americas is lay
ing claim to everything that will
strengthen that center. Likewise Al
bany, Fitzgerald and Valdosta are still
striving for every advantage in bust
ness. Somewhere i'll this section is
going to- develop a powerful CONNER
alal center. The stronger will pre-
vail over the weak business center and
the moment one of her commercial ri
walls forges ahead. Cordele will take
second or third place. We must suf
fer losses at every gain other cities
make around us.
rf
now doing all that can be expected OF
IFS. That special phase of our devel
0pment could never be in a more rapid
" growing state. Little more can be
done to strengthen our agricultural de
yolopment
1t is now the manufacturing inter
ests that need attention. AS strate
gic point we are superior to our com
mercial rivals, for the reason that We
are far ahead in railroad facilities. Oul
Great trunk lines radiate to every Dor
dering point. We only need a strength
ening of the manufacturing develop
ments to carry our plans to the fulles'
completion. Cur strongest fortified
ton in this line must come Of the
Investment of our own capital in man
ufacturing plants, When we organize
our own money into paying enterpris
es where our manufactured goods arc
provided at home, no outside force
can upturn or upset our leadership
Commercial domination will follow as
naturally as the day follows the night
Our field is a broad one. Our re
sources are all undeveloped. All our
material goes out to the far ends o.
the earth to be made up into the com
modities that come back to us ready
for use These big factories that turn
their wheels in distant cities making
up our raw material ought to be here
among us. Rich profits to the mills il
our midst lie in the freights we pay
on our unfinished products to and
from far away factories.
Now to our Paul Revere. How lone
before he will ride and wake the sleep
ing Minute Men,-the men among us
who are to take the lead in manufac
turing development?

DREW RAWLS BADLY:
STABBED BY NEGRO
RESULT OF DISPUTE
YOUNG RAILROAD EMPLoYE is
CUT ON THROAT BY S. CYCE,
COLoRED, WHO SUCCEEDED IN
ELUDING THE POLICE.

Drew Rawls, a well-known young
railroad employee, and who has posi-
ton in. the railroad shops, was very
dangerously stabbed last night by a
negro drayman named S. Cyce. Rawls
was moved to the Pensacola hospital
as quickly as possible, and, while knife
wound bled profuscly, it was an
nounced by the attending physician
that, while the wound was dangerous
it is not necessarily of a fatal nature.
The negro who was seen by dozens
to have stabbed the young white man,
succeeded in eluding arrest up to
late hour. In fact, up to the hour of
going to press, he had not been found.
It appeared that Rawls had en-
gagged the draynan to do little job
for him during the month, and Cyce
showed up near the pay car yesterday
to collect the bill. Rawls, it was IN
derstood, told the negro that, as he
was not familiar with the bill, the
negro would have to collect the &C
brought on another, it was stated by
police who investigated the affair, and
Cyce, making some rather insulting
remarks, was struck by some party,
said to have been Rawls. In a flash
the negro had whipped out his knife,
and while one man interfered, placing
himself between the negro and
Rawls, the black mans hand, holding
the opened knife, shot over the peace
makers shoulder, the blade of the
knife sinking deeply in the other
mans neck.
In the excitement which followed
and the long time which interviewed
before a policeman could be sum-
moned, the negro escaped.
The ARRAY occurred at the railroad
shops. The pay car arrived yester-
day and was paying the men off for
their past months work when the
trouble occurred, close to the entrance
of the pay car.

YOUNG ENGL|SHMAN
ADMITTED TO CHIEF
He PASSED CHECKS
SEVERAL WERE CASHED BY
GREEKS, WHILE OTHER BUSI-
NESS HOUSES WERE ALSO VIC
TIMIZED By THE STRANGER.

Six or eight checks, said to have
been passed by young Sterling a
young man in the city Jail, were
gathered up yesterday. In all about
nine checks were passed, and last
night Sterling, in the Office of Chief
Sanders, admitted, under a severe
cross questioning on the part of the
chief, that several of the checks had
been passed by him. The entire lot
which had been turned down by banks
were not held against him. One lady
who readily cashed check for small
amount, asked that he be not prose
cuted on her account, but, rather, if
he wanted a dollar, she was ready to
provide him with money if it would
help to get him something to eat. She
so notified Chief Sanders.
Sterling, in telling something of
himself, said that he was born in
Canada, of English parents, and that
his home was in Ottawa. While he
claims to. be but eighteen years of
age, it is believed he is at least 81.
Several Greeks hunted up the chief
and told him the banks would not take
the checks as presented by Sterling
and cashed by them. One was for SIS
and of course that Greek was the
more excitable of any of four who
hunted up the chief and related
story of their being victinized. One
Greek on West Garden street, one on
North Baylen street, one on North De-
Villiers street, feed store on Garden
street, and several other places loaded
up the police department head with
their worthless checks yesterday, as
soon as the fact became known that
bad checks were being circulated.
Chief Sanders said that Sterling
had admitted to three of the checks
being his, and his trial will be held on
Saturday.

scored such a marvellous triumph as
"Zaza" far exceeds her previous per
Torrance in the presentation of this
willy, serpent-like viper who poisons
the one man who has tried to lift
her from the depths to which she has
sunk. The role of "Bella Donna" is
perhaps the greatest test to which
any actress can be submitted, for she
must be hateful, cruel, savage,
treacherous, and at the same time she
must be so fascinating that she will
grip and hold the attention of her au-
dience throughout the performance.
And, still more difficult, she must win
the sympathy Of her audience suffi-
GENTLY toward the end of her story
