WORDS FROM HOME.
tatements That May Be investigated
Testimony of Americas Citizens

When an Americas citizen comes
the front, telling his friends and
neighbors of his experience, you can
ly on his sincerity. The statements
of people residing in far away places
do not command your confidence
Home endorsement is the kind that
backs Doan's Kidney Pills. Such tes-
timony is convincing. Investigation
proves it true. Below is a statement
an Americas resident. No stronger
proof of merit can be had
J. c. Beck, engineer, Seaboard Air
Line railroad, Hancock avenue. says;
Riding over rough roads and the jar
ring of the engine made my kidneys
weak I suffered for several years
from pains in the small of my back.

LIGHT And GAS
PLANT GRANTED
RATE INCREASE
PETITION TO RAISE IT'S CHARGES
HAS BEEN ALLOWED DISCOUNT
GIVEN If BILLS PAID BY TENTH
OF MONTH.

The petition of the Americus Ligh3-
ing Company for authority to increase
gas and electric rates n Amercus has
been allowed by the Railroad Com
mission of Georgia.
Officials of the lightin corporation
received Geographic information of the
granting of the petition last night, and
the new rotes viii go into effect on
May LIST,
The company's petition was allowed
by the Railroad commission, exactly
as presented with the exception that
all bills paid at the office of the COM
pany before the lost inst, each month,
will be subject to a discount of ten
per cent, as applied to electric ac-
counts only. Gas accounts are net as
rendered, payable at the Office of the
lighting corporation, and subject to
the non-payment penalty Of ten per
cent, as at present enforced by the
company. The difference is that cleo
trio accounts are subject to dis
count of ten per cent, if paid by the
10th inst at the office of the company,
which Is deducted from the bill as
rendered, whereas gas accounts are
net, payable at the company's Office
on or before the 10th inst, and subject
to a penalty of ten per cent, which is
added, in the event of non4payment
before that date.
The petition of the company was
filed several weeks ago and has been
held up, pending examination of the
company's books. Recently J. Prince
Webster, rate expert of the Railroad
commission, came to Americas and
audited the books of the corporation,
and it was after his report was filed
that the commission took action, grant,
ing the increase asked with the single
exception noted The new schedule
of rates will be as published in the
petition of the company printed in the
Times-Recorder some time ago. The
sliding scale then asked to be made
effective will be put into effect next
month, and consumers will pay for
electricity in accordance with guam
tty consumed, the minimum and maxi
mum rates being advanced uniformly
in the commissions order. The new
gas rate in Americas is $160 per
thousand feet, fiat, and subject to the
penalty above referred to.

MEXICANS ARE
 RAISING WHEAT
 INSTEAD OF TROUBLE

JUAREZ, Mex. July 8.-"Mexi- cans in the north are raising less deviltry and more wheat" was the way an American mining man who reached here recently from tour of the interior of Chihuahua state characterized the conditions in Northern Mexico. In the fertile Laguna basin near Torreon, wheat has been planted instead. of cotton this year because of the ravages of the pink boil weevil in that district last year which destroyed the cot ton crop.
 In the little valleys near Santa Rosalia, Jimenez and Pillar de Con- cho the native farmers have been harvestinf their wheat chops and have found the yield much heavier than in former seasons. Along the Rio Grande and Conchos rivers in the Ojinaga. district wheat harvests have been bounteous and the farm CTS in that district are prosperous At Jimenez the old Hacienda Delor- es mill, which was used as for tres during the revolutions, has been started to grinding grain and the

4 BEAR" OF A TIME

TREADWELL, July S.-Thats what all the bathers said who entered the water on the smooth warm sands of the Treadwell Beach yesterday af ternOon, but that sport wasn't com pared to the time Steward Steve Ferris had on Saturday evening with his pet bear which he thought was in need of exercise. Steve loosened the bear for a stroll along the Tread well track and everything went lovely until the string was pulled on Madame Bruin to return home, then the fun began. The bear had no intention of returning to the cage, and only through the assis- tance of the fire department and a good stream of water, was Madame bear made to return to her cage.

MAY CHANGE SYSTEM

TREADWELL, July 8. = Superin- tendent Preston, of the Treadwell electrical department, is experiment. ing on the proposition of heating Treadwell with electricity in the flu ture as well as operating all the power systems by electricity instead of the former system of steam. Plans are not yet complete and steam may still have to be retained as an aux Hilary in some of the departments as accidents in the wiring systems will occur, such as the burning out of one of the poles on the hill making roar like cataract and the fire and flashes from the electricity would have lighted the entire hill side had darkness prevailed.

SPEAKER OVERLOOKED

DOUGLAS, July 8.-E. J. White, who was scheduled to make the four-minute address at the Liberty Theatre last night, did not appear owing to no announcement of the talk being shown on the screen as usual. It was only an oversight on the part of the operator and the red hot speech the Stroller" had prepared during the blistering rays of Old Sol yesterday instead of cool ing his fevered brow in the surf at Treadwell, will yet be heard at one of the theatres.

LEAVE FOR STATES

DOUGLAS, July 8.-Ray Smith and Ceicl Howard expect to take the next steamer for the States. Mir. Smith has been employed on the Alaska-Juneau Wharf and MT. Howard in the electrical department. Mir. Smith will join his wife who left for Tacoma a few months ago, and MT. Howard expects to enter the service of Uncle Sam in the Signal Corps department.
