.Sl9.4SO FOUND IN
.OLD-TIME TRUNK
Death OF Crisp Farmer Reveals
Wealth He Was Not Known
To Have

CORDELE, Dec. 15.--When his
attorneys went through his papers on
Friday preparatory to winding up the
estate of L. Larsen, Crisp county far
mer, residing in the Listonia district,
they found hidden away in the old
est trunk on the place under mass
of papers dinged and yellow with age
$19,480 in cash, consisting of bills
Of all denominations from old, ragged
one-dollar bills to new stacks of fed
eraI reserve notes which had never
been taken from the packs made
when they were first sent out. They
also found time deposit slips showing
SO, 600, in the banks and $1,000 in
war savings stamps and $4,000 in
Liberty bonds.
1t was generally known that this
thrifty old citizen had money, but not
even members of his family knew he
had the pile of currency disclosed in
the search. He died last week at an
advanced age and the aged couple,
man and wife, had resided alone
many years. His estate, lands and
all, must have been worth 100000.

IL $500 Worth Are Sold Half Of

the city today. Assisting them. were
number of Americus prettiest girls
who gave their interest in the sale.
Today, Friday and Saturday are to
be devoted to intensive selling of the
seals, and it is urged on the people
to buy as many Of them as possible
in order to make the showing at the
end of the campaign one of merit.
"If as many as $500 worth of seals
are disposed of in Americus," said
one Of the committee today in dis
cussing the merit of the sales" $3.50
Of this amount will be retained in the
city for expenditure along health
conservation lines in any department
which is judged the most expedient.
This is d great incentive to the people
to buy stamps, for with the health
crusade movement going strong in the
city and rural schools, and with the
intense interest manifested in the
forward movement by the teachers
and pupils alike, it is worth while to
work for the retaining of $3.50 to
be spent in furthering this great
Many things may be
done with an amount like this, and
it behooves US all to strive for the
disposal of the allotted amount in
order that half may be kept he@."

Of reversal in the murder case of
J. G. Wilson, who last year shot and

and en- trial in Abbeville was found
guilty of murder and sentenced to
hang, came today from the. State Su-

court.
The Wilson trial was the culmina-
tion of feud in Seville involving a
race for mayor and the disposal Of
an automobile by the Wilson's in Ma
con which was said to have been
stolen from Sappington. Several
cases got into the courts and the
troubles finally caused the killing of
Sappington in the Seville postoffice
by j. C. Wilson, who was shown by
the evidence on the trial to have at
tackled Sappington while the latter
was unarmed and making no show OF
hostility.

WOULD PERMIT
j. 5. TO SAVE D
LARGEST SHIPS
Also Permits Great Britain To
Build Two Super-Hoods,
Scrapping Dreadnaughts

WASHINGTON, Dec. Is (By As
sociated Press Alternate proposals
relating to the 5-5-3 ratio, as worked
out apparently over night by naval
experts, were presented today to See
rctary Hughes, A. j. Balfour and
Baron Kato, which indicated, accord
ing to delegation spokesmen, that no
formal agreement had been reached
by the big three.
The proposals submitted as a
means of balancing the ratio to com
pcnsate for the retention of the ship
Mutsu by Japan, would permit Great
Britain to build two super Hoods,
scrapping four old dreadnaughts and
one battle cruiser, or build two bat
tlcsbips of the Royal Sovereign class,
Graphing four dreadnaughts, but no
battle cruisers.
The increase Of the American ton
mage by $4,000 would admit of sub
stitution of the super-dreadnaughts
Colorado and Washington for the
older ships Delaware and North
Dakota.
Japan in retaining the Mutso would
scrap the Setsu.

DOESN'T PAY TO TRAVEL

VALDOSTA, Dec. 15.-J. C. Nc
Donald and Aaron Ellis, white men
from Coffee county, began serving
four months sentences in the
Lowndes county jail yesterday for
moonshining. Nearly one year ago
Special Officer Pearce made raid
in Coffee county and caught five men.
He told them to appear at the next
term Of the federal court in Val
dosta and their cases would be dis
posed of Three of the men ap-
peared and were given nominal pun
ishment. Mcdonald and Ellis moved
to Fort Pierce, Fla, and evidently
thought this relieved them of re-
sponsibility to the court. They were
arrested and brought here, and
Judge Evans gave them sentence
and showed to them and others that
the long arm of the federal court
reached into other states.

NICK AND NANCY IN SANTA
CLAUS LAND.

Nick and Nancy put on their
Magical Green Shoes and wished
themselves in the land where Santa
Claus lived. They met old Santa
out in his yard where he was hav-
ing his aeroplane fixed, which
he meant to use instead of his REIN
deer. He carried them in and they
showed him the wonderful colors
PIN PIN had helped them to get.
He was delighted with them and
they were all soon busy at work
finishing and coloring the beauti-
full toys. After all were done they
were load on the aeroplane. Nick
and Nancy jumped in by good Old
Santa and away they flew. On
their way they met Mr.. Cloud who
looked very black and angry when
he first met them but they waved
their fairy wand at him and he
melted away. They flew on and on
and finally stopped at the cottage
of poor widow. Her two little
children were tucked in bed fast
asleep and dreaming bright dreams
of what Old Santa would bring
them.
Old Santa sent Nick and Nancy
through the window to fill the lit
tie stockings with goodies.
They went from house to house,
leaving pretty things for all the
good boys and girls and soon had
emptied Santa's big pack.
