BIG REWARD FOR
ABSENT MAN
WADE'S DISAPPEAR
ANcE AT AMERIcus STILL j.
PUZZLES POLICE.

AMERICUS, Aug. 24.--The belief
that Walter Wade, the young Leslie
business man whose disappearance is
mystifying the authorities and rela-
tives, was murdered has been further
strengthened by rewards offered now
to over $500. One reward of $3.50 came
from Walter Clopton, relative Of
Wade, while citizens Of Leslie have
subscribed large sum as reward for
the recovery of his body
Governor Harris has been requested
to issue a proclamation declaring a
reward from the state. Authorities
have found the inner tube of an auto
mobile casing near the scene of other
discoveries, the tube having blood
stains. The tube is said to be of the
same size and make as used by Wade.
Authorities insist that important de-
velopments may startle the commun-
ity although their work Is not pro
crossing satisfactorily to themselves.

Brunswick.
In all the Work conducted in the
county, evidence is plentiful that prac-
tically every part could be used for
the production of oranges especially
the Satsuma. From commercial
standpoint, this orange has good
future because it is the earliest on
the market in the fall. Your section
is adapted to it from a climatalogical
standpoint as any severe cold which
you may have is broken by the warm
air from the Gulf stream. From
soil standpoint, the fact that you have
5000 orange trees growing and bear
ing should be sufficient. From mar
keting standpoint yod have every ad-
vantage of rail and steam ship. And
in addition you have thousands of
acres of non-producing Land which
would be available for use and which
could be changed from burden to n
proiit-producing industry.
