Americus should save $10,000 a year on aocount of sugar being placed on the free list, ss this ought to mean a reduc tion of two cents a pound In the retail price. It is questionable, however, whether the consumers will really get the benefit of this piece of governmental considera tion. The sugar refiners are all In a big combine—Spreckles Included, and It Is for them to determine what the poor pullc shall pay for Its sweetening. The consumption of sugar per capita li the United States is about fifty pounds a year. In Americus the con sumption would then be about 500,000 pounds, and tho saving at 2 cents pound, which the oonsumor In justice should have, would make the $10,000. The Louisiana sugar crop is about 425,000,000 pounds, and has to meet the reduction, but the government com pensates for that by paying the domes- tio producers of sugar a bounty of 2 cents a pound. Short Local*. The steam flying jenny attracts great crowds, and la reaping in a healthy har vest of nlekles. The coneert Tuesday night delighted all, and a repetition of the entertain ment Is heartily wished for. A runaway down Jackson street caus ed some excitement late yesterday af ternoon.

Everybody is anxious for tlio street railway to be purchased by local par ties, and it looks as if It will be done.

A young negro boy happened to a painful accident yesterday morning, at his home on Head’s lane.

The prize drill of the Americus Light Infantry was very close and interesting, resulting In another victory for Seargent Clove Davis. This makes the third time BfS^gent Davis has won the medal. -lArgent Hooper delivered the prize. A Thousand Tears Ago. Id the year 000 after Christ what was the state of Europe? The Gotha, the Vandals, the Franks, tho Huns, the Nor mans, tho Turks and other bnrbario hordes had invaded and overthrown the Roman empire, and hod established various kingdoms upor. its rains. Read ing, writing and ciphering were separate and distinct trades. The masses of tho poor and rich alike were wholly un acquainted with the mysteries of the alphabet and the pen. A few men known as “clerks,” who belonged to the priesthood, monopolized all learning and set themselves up as special artists. Kings did not know how to even sign their names. When they wanted to sign a written contract, law or treaty, which some "clerk" had drawn up for them, they wonld smear tho right band with ink, and slap it down on the parch ment, saying, "Witness my hand." At a later date some genius devised the snbstitnte of the seal, which was impressed instead of the hand, bnt oftener beside the hand; hence the law phrase, “Witness my hand and seal." At the date of which wo write every gentleman had a seal with a peculiar de vice thereon. There were no chimneys in use; the fire was built in the center of the house, BUioke escaping through a hole in the roof. Chairs were unknown, knives and forks were unknown. Even the nobility sat on botes and blocks and ate meat with their fingers.—St. Louis Republic. Manufacture of Gauze. In the ordinary processes of the loom tha warp threads are always kept paral lel in whutever way tho weft threads may be twisted around them. Bnt in making gauze two adjoining warp threads are completely twisted aronnd each other between tho two rows of tho shuttle or casts of tho weft Somo pe culiar apiiendages of the loom are re quired to effect this. One consequence of the mode of interlacing is that the textnre is light, the welt threads being farther apart than would bo practical in other webs.
