MILITIA SOUGHT
MURDERER OF
min
PORTSMOUTH, Va—After a night
of excitement Portsmouth fa this
nornlng tranquil and the troops on
guard all night have been dismissed,
but are yet awaiting a possible call
to duty. When day dawned and the
first rays of th<* sun penetrated the
fog that hung over the marsh In
which James Strong, the murderer of
Police Officer Wlningder, waa sup
posed to be hiding, the soldiers who
with loaded guns and sleepless eyes
had been guarding the marsh to pre
vent hi* escape, began gradually to
close In on the suspected hiding place
of the murderer. They drew the line
tighter and tighter and went Into
the marsh, but no trace of the mur
derer and no sign that he had been
there was to be found. All night long
detachments from Companies K and
I. and Grime* Battery, called out af
ter the cold-blooded murder of the
faithful imllce officer last evening to
preserve the peace and aid In the cap
ture of the murderer has been guard
ing every avenue leading to the marsh
where the slayer was believed to have
taker, refuge.
The police were not strongly Im
pressed with the Idea that the man
was there, and Detective Land took
the train to Bruces Station to look
for him on passing night freights. It
Is certain that hsd he been In the
marsh when the line was drawn about
It he would still have beer, there this
morning for no man, woman or child
was permitted to pass the cordon of
grin, sentries that stood guard about
the vicinity of Washington, North and
Dlnwlddlle streets, without giving as.
account of themselves.
The soldier* were dismissed this
morning, the city being perfectly tran
quil and there being nothing for them
to guard. They will hold themselves
In readiness for duty at an Instant s
notice, however. Mayor rfeed Is de
termined that the peace shall he pre
served and that there shall be no
lynching when the man Is captured.
All trains are carefully Inspected to
see that the negro does not make his j
escape In that manner.

IS REAL ESTATE
KCTIIITT IS
MANIFEST
COLUMBUS, Ga—The Georgia and
Alabama Industrial Index says today
In Its regular weekly Issue:
Increasing activity in real estate
In the two stated of Georgia and Ala
bama forms a gratifying Illustration
of the return of normal conditions to
this section of the south. A great
! many sale* In city realty and farm
and timber lands were reported dur
ing the week ending today, and many
!of the tangaettons were quite sub
! stantial In their character, the con
i alteration going high into the thou
- sands. While a Arm, healthy tone Is
| evident In realty all over the two
states, south and east Georgia made
I a particularly Hne showing, lands
! selling all the way from $12.50 to SOO
| per acre. Numerous trarts of land
are to he sold for sub-division, and
| this Indicates that tl,e mind of the in
vesting public Is centered upon real
estate, for as a rule these sales are
not arranged unless they have been
I stimulated and encouraged by in
quiries.
"Announcement Is made that the
I Southern railway Is to resume the
j work of constructing Its line from
i .Stevenson. Ala., to Chattanooga,
Tenn., suspended during the late
panic. Application for charter for the
i Sparks Western railroad was made,
i showing that railroad enterprises are
getting tn full swing In south Ueor
igia again.
"Athens, Ga., which is making such
a creditable showing these dayß, hav
ing recently organized a compress
company and an oil company, an
i nounces plans to build an auditorium
I seating 2,000 people, and also the for
mation of a $300,000 accident Insur
lanee company, thus adding still more
to the prestige of the northeast Geor
gia city as an insurance center.
"A large number of Important con
tracts were let during the week,
among them contracts for paving in
several cities. Home, Ga., Montgom
ery, Ala Anniston, Ala. Huntsville,
Ala, and other cities are carrying out
quit,- creditable paving propaganda.
"The organization of four new
hanks In Georgia Illustrates the fact
that former conditions of prosperity
are returning Two other new hanks
In Georgia have just opened their
doors. Several new banking institu
tions have been chartered in Ala
bama recently."
“Conditions continue to Improve in
the yellow pine market, and lumber
dealers everywhere in the two states
are decidedly more optimistic. Thu
most conservative business men are
noting and commenting upyn the
steady Improvement in business,
which has been marked for several
weeks, and when it Is considered
that this revival Is occurring In the
mid summer season it shows the force
of the reactionary movement now
sweeping the county—the rebound
from the psnle of last fall nnd the
rather discouraging months that fol
lowed. With the opening of the fall
season, conditions will Improve still
more rapidly, nnd after the presiden
tial election prosperity will be in still
greater evidence. The opinion Is ex
pressed in many quarters that 1909
will he one of the best business years
In the history of the American peo
ple. and the number of enterprises
that are now being projected and the
extent of the development that is un
der way In Georgia and Alabama indi
cate that these two states will ron
trlbut,- their full part, and more, in
bringing about such a condition.

Gentlemen:
The Grand I bought of you at the beginning of the
opera season has given me unalloyed pleasure and
satisfaction. It was while singing in public with
your piano that I first noted the superb tone and
resonance which gave me perfect support. Dur
ing my artistic life I have had the opportunity to
become familiar with the best pianos made. None
have satisfied my ideal of tone fully but the
Everett, and it was for this reason I decided to
buy one for my own private use.
