Further Effort on the Pv» of tb. People w. Can Ban It—IU Vital Importune to War Basln.u Interest!. Mr. Thos. F. Kenny, the representa tive of the Boaton owner ot the street railway plant, leavea to-day for hli borne, and It resta with the people whether or not he carries baek with him the aiauranco that Americus la both able and willing to co-operate wlcb the owner In running the street cart. In Saturday'iiaaue of Tux Timkk-Ue- cordeh was published an interview with Mr. Kenny, in which it will be re membered he stated that in addition to the $2,000 Incorporated In the commit tee's proposition the owner required an assurance of the purchase of $3,000 more In tickets for the first year, and that whan this necessary amount should be subscribed the operation of the road would then be n settled thing. Since the publication of these facts, a committee has called upon our citizens in earnest endeavor to secure the re quired guarantee, and so effective have been their effort* that the greater por tion of it has been accomplished, and I) only remains for our business men to put their shoulders to the wheel and by a concerted action bring the negotiations to a successful conclusion. It in true that some may probably be called upon to obligate themselves to take more tickets than they will use daring the prescribed time, but it is only for one year, and even to those who do not own city property along the line the Indirect benefit nooning to the real estate and business interest* of Ameri cus wHl make of their small outlay a good investment The importance of reeumption of traffic on this line cannot be over-esti mated, nor can the damage which will eurely result from apathy displayed at this Critical time be calculated, and Tux Thies-Rkcorder would urge upon our people the vital necessity of taking ad vantage of this opportunity. Let every man who can contribute something to this, thoWue of onr common good and Jhe will flad that Itt will prove, indeed, ‘■bread cast upon the waters." From the time of its suspension The Ti u>:--Rbcoiu>eu has endeavored to im press its waders with an Idea of the vastly ImyoMant place the etreet railway occupiajEkis factor In the prosperity of Americas, end it bee -with a frequency, verging • . upon -the ret'l ction .light betaken whereby this no- cesslty might be restored to the publle; and now that It la within our grasp, let us by a pull, a strong pull and a pull altogether (even though It may cause ue a little temporary Inconvenience) close the contract with tho owners, through which our real estate valuations will be greatly enhanced and our general Inter ests augmented beyond calculation. And just here let ue give praise to the young men of tho city who, In their shrewd recognition of benefits which must inevitably result from a successful termination to the matter, came forward and subscribed with noble liberality. We inadvertently stated in our lesue of Sunday that the reserved seats for the performance of “A Barrel of Money” were on sale at the etore of Messra. Alii' son A Aycook; instead, the box sheet has been opened st the new jew.lry etore of Messrs. Thompson A Andeison next door to Allison A Aycook, in tho Hotel Windsor. ' Call oarly and seeuro your seats before the rush. The School.. Prof. Blzlen informs us that the pub lic schools opened last Monday with an enrollment of 1,412 pupils, against about 1,225 hut year, and ho fuels confident of a total enrollment of 1,600 before the end of the session. And by way of pa renthesis let ue remark that in educa tional advantages Americus is excelled by no city in Georgia. This is prov en by the excellent stand taken by grad uates from the high school here in the different male and female colleges over the country. Prof. Blzlen is ably slated by a competent corps of instruct ors, and a student when graduated in the full course prescribed at this school has then acquired more than the average business education.

Bert Cunningham, a cloudy visage do scendant of Ham, allowed bis alleged facetious propensities to get him into trouble the other day when he abstract ed and hid six dozen eggs belonging to Mr. R. F. Nehrtng, his employer. Mr. Nebring bed been missing eggs for some time, and having his suspicions he marked these, all of which were fouad In Bert’s possession. He was tried before Judge Flisbury yes terday morolog and when ar raigned stated that he know that the eggs were marked and that he just took them to play a joke on Mr. Mohr- lag, but, unfortunately for Bert, Judge Pliebury either could not comprehend the joke, or he thought practical joking a pernicious habit which should be sum marily dealt with, for he softly inform ed him that his little comedy on this oc casion was played to a pretty expensive tune—820, or six mouth* on the chain- gang, with an opportunity of mastering the aesthetic art of making brick. The trifling boy'* good old mother was in the court room and joyfully paid 820 of her hard-earned tarings to save him from a deterred punishment. “There la a tide la the affaire of men which, taken at the flood, lead* on to fortune;neglected, all their voyage is bound In shallows end Id miseries.
