Items Rolled Down Into Bright, Breezy Btt, of Tbl, and That Which Will Be Of Much Interact to The Time,-Recor der Reader,. A mad dog was shot and killed in the northern portion of the city yesterday. One hundred and sixty-three cars of watermelons were moved by the Central road yesterday. Mayor pro tem, Whoatley, presided over the Mayor’s court yesterday* in his usual graceful manner. The Times-Recobdeb will appear no more until Monday. The Fourth of July is the cause of this. At Its next meeting Mr. J. B. Dunn will make to the council his report on the water works accounts. Last year such a thing as a wood yard was unknown in Americus. There are two here now, and another in contem plation. The fact that the day falls on Satur day will interfere with many arrange ments that had been made for the spend ing of the Fourth of July. The evidences in the case against old man Elbert Head was heard yesterday before Justice Adderton. Decision in the matter was reserved until to-day. Ten cars of bagging and ties were sold by Americus dealers. When it comes to giving wholesale prices that are on the bottom floor, Americus men can’t be beat. A negro boy named Sam Kelly broke his leg In jumping off a Southwestern freight train yesterday. He had stolen a ride from some point up the road to Americus. Edn. Thomas, colored, has been ar rested upon a warrant chargingher with assault and battery upon the person of her mother. The case will be heard be fore Justice Oliver Monday. Having severed his conneotlon with G. M. Davis <£ Co., Mr. Mitt Edwards is now with Hawklna <& Loving on Cotton avenue.. That firm did a good day’s work when it scoured Mr. Edward's ser vices. Mr. U. B. Harrold Is having the spa cious grounds around his handsome home terraced and sodded. This will add much to the beauty of what is al ready one of the prettiest places in Americus. As much as they would like to accom modate you the banks have all agreed to observe the legal holiday strictly to-day, and no business will be transacted. So there is no need of your bunting up any of the bank officers. A free fight occurred near the South western depot yesterday morning J>e- tween two negroes. One of them hit the other in the head with a rook and then "burned the wind,” as the ubiquitous small boy would say. What becomes of the sewing maohines Is a question that is often asked- Many machines are sold in thi> section. Scarcely a day passes bnt what a largo number of sewing machines are received in Americus by express. Two gentlemen who boast of their fast horses had an improptu race in the aouthern portion of the olty yesterday. Both the horaei were hitohed to buggies, yet they made a mile over ordinary roads In less than three mlkutes. Some handsome railing passed through Americus yesterday for the Bank of Stewart, at Lumpkin. That In stitution will probably begin business next week. Aa it known, Mr. Little Mardre of this city, will be cashier. When the Southweitern *paa»enger train atopped In this city yeaterday a cripple woman who was walking up and down the aisles was thrown to the floor. All who saw tho accident say that the blame in the matter attaches to the wo man herself. On July 1 Mr. J. W. Wells began his connection with Johnson & Harrold, whore ho will be pleased to have bis many friends call on him. There is probably no man in Sumter county who Is more widely known, or has more friends than Mr. Wells. Contractor Smith says that unless something entirely unexpected and un heard of happens to prevent, the Hotel Alhambra will be flniahed by the time named in the contract—September 1— if the men have to work day and night to accomplish that end. , A large crowd of negroes will go to Coney to-day. The crowd will be larger than was at flrat anticipated. The Savannah,. Amerioua * Montgomery road it equal to the emergeney, however, and ample accommodations will bo pro vided for all who may go. Vigilance running squad has an nounced that It will give an eqjeitaln- memt at Phillips’ ball Monday night.to enable them to purchase handsome ron- ninff suits, which are now being made IrnNew York, to wear on the occasion of the tournament at Augusta.- - * - We have for sale a one thousand dol lar Knabe piano, tho finest one of that make ever brought south, .“"in beof- fered to-morrow morning at 9 o clock. Head* Still Falling. Despite reporta to the contrary, it does not seem that the decapitation of Central railroad officials has yet oloaed. The latest rumor la that the following employees have been displaced: H. C. Morgan, of Savannah, superin tendent of the terminal. T. S. Molae, of Savannah, superintend ent of the Tybee railroad. L. C. Young, of Macon, supervisor of passenger trains. G. B. Wheeler, supervisor of freight trains. . ,, Some of the railroad officials on the Southwestern division are getting anx ious about their scalpa. The lodol men aver, however, that they are in no way uneasy. It is quite the fashion now to take De- Witt's Little Early Risers for Uver, stomach and bowel disorders. They are small pills, but mighty good ones. The Davenport Drug Company sells them, Attention!
