JOHN R. SHAW,
“THE CHAMPION"
Clothier and Furnisher,
117 Forsyth St.,
AMERICUS, - G-A.
At Chicago (or ScTcnty-Fhro (7Sc.) Cents
Per Week.
The word “Excursion” U ever coupled
with bustle, jostle, jamming, confusion
and all elae attending a large orowd,
with no head-center to prevent it. The
word “Club” carrlea with It privacy, or
der, perfect latisfactlon and pleaaure to
all. The “Georgia Exonralon Club” will
be so conducted as to give the most
studied quietude, privacy, and full rights
and privileges to its subscribers, simply
by taking time by the forelock, and hav
ing in advance every requirement and
contingency provided for. Each sub
scriber, family or private party will be
assigned seats and berths on a Pullman
palace car, and the train, once in readi
ness for departure, the excursionists will
not be disturbed at any other station by
passengers being placed amongst ’them.
The places, or car assigned them will
be theirs and theirs only, to the end of
the trip, and the same on their return.
In this way the Georgia Excursion
Club will run from Atlanta, Ga., to Chi
cago, Ill , Pullman palace cars to the
World’s Fair frpm May 1st to October,
1803, including meals on the train, first-
class hotel accommodations during seven
days’ visit to Chioago, admission to the
fair grounds and transportation to and
from your hotels to the fair grounds
daily.
Remember, the whole round trip, con
ducting Pullman palace car club excur
sions, for only seventy-five cents (75
cents) per week for 100 weeks, from
September 1st, 1801, to September 1st,
1803. The tour will require just ten
days’ time, on the train and in Cbleago.
We propose a cheap and easy way to
accomplish all this. But cheap
only as to the rate for the round trip,
and easy as to the mode of paying and
amount of our installments. All our
expenditures will be princely, and If
needs be the whole amount will and
shall be expended to secure the full en
joyment and entire satisfaction of our
subscribers.
Upon an installment of 75 cents per
week for 100 weeks, so paid that almost
any one desiring to attend the great Co
lumbian Exposition—the World’s Fair—
at Chicago, may do so in a first class
style, and in such a way as not to feel
the dost of the otherwise expensive
journey, and have none of the disonm-
forts, almost unattainable by private
parties, on such an occasion, and always
unreasonably high at such a time, In a
oity crowded to over-flowing by persons
from all quarters of the globe.
To provide absolute security to the
subscribers, and to guarantee that the
contracts of the club will be carried out,
has been the first care of the projectors.
All moneys from subscribers will be
deposited in the Capital City Bank, At
lanta, Ga. Major T. H. Blacknall, as
business manager, alone can check out
the money, and only for the legitimate
purpose of defraying the expenses of the
subscribers, as per our contract with
them, after each amount has been sub
mitted in an itemized acoount, and
properly audited by the board of audit
ors for the club.to-wit: Col. J. C. Court
ly, Gen. A. T. Hawthorne, with Major
Jim Y. Rankin, secretary.
The Georgia Excursion Club consists
of Major T. H. Blacknall, business
manager; Major J. C. Courtney, auditor
•and manager of transportation, and
Major John Y. Rankin, secretary. The
attorneys for the club are the well-
known law firm of Dorsey, Brewster A
Howell, of the Atlanta bar.
This will be a very enjoyable plan for
say fifteen to twenty gentlomen, with
their wives, who aro acquainted and
wish to visit the great fair nnd remain
together. Or for schools; one or two
teachers can take charge of twenty-five our club
or thirty pupils or students, and be in
tho same car with them all the white on
the train. Or for an order wishing to
go and remain together, or any associa
tion or military company. We oan give
them a Pullman palace ear for them
selves exclusively, so the families will
have a rare picnic indeed. The pupils
and students will be as safe as at home
or in the school room; the order as
though they were in their own hall or
lodge room; the military company as
private as if in their own armory. Any
roligious order or association can be as
devotional os in their own chapel, with
none to hinder, molest or make afraid.
Young ladles with no attendant for
the trip will bo met at the train by some
ono lady appointed by the club; it may
bo tho wife of one of the officers of the
club, who will take charge of her or any
lady unattended, and chaperon all the
ladles, excursionists to Chicago, be
sides.
On each train there will be an agent of
the club to see that every reasonable
want of the subscribers' Is attended to,
and the lady chaperon above alluded to
will see that all the ladies are made com-
sortable, and will take special charge of
your wife, yonr daughter, your sister,
your mother or your ward, if yon can
not yourself attend them; thns enabling
the husband, the father, the son, the
brother or the guardian to send, with
perfeot assurance of safety, their ladies
in advance of them, and they can follow

Now think for one moment how easy
it is to secure a round trip ticket for all
this round of pleasure to the grand
World's Fair. Simply by cutting down,
leaving off or dispensing with some one
or another of tbe very many luxuries or
needless extravagancies of the day, or
some imaginary want, and setting aside
seventy-five cents por week, for one hun
dred weeks. This will seeure von the
grand tour to and from the World’s
Fair, and all the grand results that may
follow. For this trip may restore tbe
bloom of manhood to tbe cheek of the
care-worn clerk, book-keeper or artist
The vigor of foriqer years to the aged
father, bring back tbe life blood to the
veins of a loving mother, restore the
fast fading oheeks of a devoted wife or
sister, and the trip will forever stamp
indellibly truths, facts and mat
ters of solence and untold usefulness
deep Into tbe minds of the inquiring—
the young and tho old, and of pupils and

Now, from the fact your certificate is
transferable, should a party move from

secured, and yonr certificate can be easi

carry out your contract; and wo believe,
a paid-up certificate will be worth a
premium, for no one person, nor two,
