Today Is quite a contrast to Wed
nesday In regard to the number of
people In town. But of course every
day cannot be a top-notcher when It
comes to attendance.
Plumbing guarantees the removal from the house
and premises where it has been installed of filth and
refuse.
Where there is no plumbing, the filth is thrown in
to the yard or alley. It sinks into the.ground, where
it breeds nauseating odors and myriads of dangerous
germs of disease.
therefore, as a practical proposition, regardless of
all considerations of comfort aqd convenience, plumb
ing pays. It saves doctor’s bills. It makes health
ful conditions where sickness has been prevalent.
\ Summer is at hand.
Can you take the risk' pf being without plumbing
jn your home during the heated term? The question
answers itself.
See .us about the details.
Late In the afternoons now the
sound of the ranking hose Is heard in

give the lawns thorough drenchlngs.
Without this some of them would not
show up nearly as well as they' do.

The heat today Is a good deal above
the average. The morning started off
warm, and all day the record has been
kept up. When at breakfast time the
nir Is still and a sort of subdued glare
—that Is hardly noticed unless looked
for—Is all around, It Is an unfailing
sign of a warm day.
Mr. J. M. Tift landed a beautiful
striped bass, or rock fish, weighing
somewhere In the neighborhood of ten
pounds, yesterday afternoon, and ex
hibited his trophy with a light steel
fly rod with which he said the fish
was conquered In the rupids of the
Muckafoonee just below the Power
Company’s dam.

A traveler writes of a port lu north
western India: “The great sight of
Karachi Is the sacred crocodile pre
serve at Magar Plr, some seven miles
off. There are hot springs here which
feed n shallow tank containing nearly
a hundred crocodiles. The story, usu
ally thought to ho fictitious, of the Eng
lishman who for a bet crossed the tank
by Jumping successively from the
backs of these crocodiles is based ou
tact The hero of this foolhardy feat
was a certain Lieutenant Berosford, a
friend of Sir R. H;Burton. When Bur
ton. and Ills companion were visiting
the crocodiles’ tank they noticed that
these reptiles and certain islets of reeds
happened to make an almost continu
ous bridge across the tank. This
prompted the daring subaltern to haz
ard the font of crossing by hopping
from one crocodile to another. To the
amazement of the spectators he suc
ceeded In this apparently mad attempt.
Sir Richard Burton had already suc
cessfully performed an equally daring
feat He managed to muzzle a croco
dile by means of a lasso and then
jumped ou the reptile’s back and en
joyed a somewhat zigzag ride."
A tale of horror was told by marks

gan taking Dr. King’s New Discovery.
It completely cured me and I have re
mained well ever since.” It cures
Hemorrhages, Chronic Coughs, Set

With the representation from Quin
cy, Fla., missing and Its absence un
accounted for, the meeting which was
held at the City Hall here yesterday
afternoon by representatives of the
five communities through which It Is
proposed to build a new railroad, was
not altogether thd success that had
been anticipated by those who are fos
tering the movement and who were
most sanguine of the material results
of yesterdays’ meeting.
In spite of the fact that the Quincy
delegation was' not present and that
no explanation’ of Its absence could
be made, the meeting went right ahead
with the preliminary work of building
a railroad. After considerable discus
sion of various suggested methods of
procedure, It was decided that a com
mittee of two from each of the coun
ties through which the proposed road
will pass be appointed, the duties of
this committee being to secure rights-
of-way in each of the counties, ter
minal facilities at each of the five
towns to be touched by the' road, and
to raise a cash fund of $8,t)00, to be
used, if necessary, In having a survey
made, In securing a charter, and In
presenting; the project In attractive
form before capital. ...
ft, was,, decided that the fairest ap
portionment of this $8,000 expense,
fund would be on a basis of, mileage,
each county contributing In propor
tion to the number of miles of road
that would pass through that county.
Under this allotment Albany and
Dougherty county will be expected to
contribute 31,000 to this fund. Those
who represented this community at
the meeting felt that they were safe
in promising that such an amount
could be raised here.
The railroad whloh It Is proposed to
build under this plan is from Albany,
as a northern terminus, to Quincy,
Fla., as a southern terminus. The road
will touch at Newton. Camilla, Cairo,
and at Quincy It is hoped that ar
rangements can be made with con
necting lines to give Albany a through
trunk line to St. Joseph, Fla., a deep
water port.
As might be expected from condi
tions which obtain at the several
places on this proposed, railroad, Al
bany was not so enthusiastic over this
railroad project as were some of the
other towns. This was explained by
the Albanians present on the grounds
that Albany already had a number of
railroads, and that there were several
new lines now being projected In the
direction which this proposed road Is
to take. Naturally, Albany Is not so
vitally Interested In this project as
those towns which have only one rail
road and are anxious for the great con
venience and saving ot another and
a competing line. However, the as
surance was given that' Albany would
contribute towards securing Its suc
cess as generously as the conditions
here would warrant.
Mr. W. B. Roddenberry, of Cairo,
who has been the real head of this
railroad movement, was chairman of
yesterday’s meeting and he gave those
present such Information as he had
gathered In a careful study of the
demand for and prospects of the pro
posed road, When It was determined
that the further work of projecting
this road should be placed in the
hands of a committee, he was made
chairman of that committee, the per
sonnel of which Is as follows:
Grady County—W. B. Roddenberry
and W. S. Wight.
Dougherty County — M. Weslosky
and L. E. Welch.
Mitchell County—F. L. Lewis and
F. S. Perry.
Baker County—R. L. Hall and Jno.
O. Perry.
The committeemen from Gadsden
county, Florida, will be appointed by
the chairman after conferring with the
citizens of Quincy.
This committee is expected to un
dertake its work at once, and as soon
as all are ready to report, a meeting
will be called by the chairman. This
meeting will probably be held at Al
bany some time within the next few
weeks.

“Dixie” Mosquito Frame and Net.
The “DIXIE” frame is the only perfectly tempered frame sold. It
preserves its temper and elasticity through the years. It does not
bend or get out of shape and refuse to fold. Put one up properly and
It takes your net back and folds it gracefully and perfectly, so that you
do not have to fan out the mosquitoes and the (lies when It is let down.
We have sold them for years, and the years have brought us increased
business on them. And we are the only people from whom they can
be obtained in this town. .
THE “CLIMAX” PULLEY NET, made by the
Dixie people, is also without a peer in its class.
We are ready to supply your demand for these
goods, and there is no better time for this work than
