Then No Remedy For Till* Great Public Krllf— The Huelnt'M Meu Suffer From It. Bed Effect*. Duet! Blinding, suffocating, stilling. Duet in the eye*, dual in the ears, duet, dust everywhere. Is there no remedy? Eveiy day many dollars wortli of valua ble goods are damaged for the business men of Americux, and this is probably the only place of the size in the south which docs not make somo public pro vision for this annoying visitation which is at any timo liable to assail the streots of an unpave J city. For the past fow days every gust (and they have been strong and frequent) lias lifted and hurled Into the eyes of those nut of doors an amount of impalpable real estate, which, if it could he collect ed and dumped into one placo by an In dividual, would enrich him fur life. Driving being a period of continual dis comfort, aud pcdcstriansm peculiarly disagreeablo when turning corners and facing a cloud of dust well nigh stifling. There muBt surely exist some way by which this great public evil may be mitigated. In a city of the importance and size of Americus, such contingen cies are usually provided for by munici pal legislation, and for us to continue behind in so important respect does not speak well for our general progressive- cess. Hare justice to the business men of Americus, who have, by their pluck and enterprise, raised our city to tbe proud eminence of the metropolis of southwest Georgia, demands that the town of their own creation should fall behind others In no single respect. The question has been repeatedly agitated In tbe columns of the Tires. Recorder, and the urgency of the mat ter cannot fall to be fully appreciated by those wbo bave been compelled to expo ricnco tbe annoyance of outdoor busi ness during the past few days. It la said there ii, even now, a case of dangerous lllnest In tbe city which tbe attending physician states was caused primarily by tbe unbearable dust which permeates the atmosphere.

Gambrlnof Bailee The above line has appeared in Tiie Times-Recoriieii for tbe past month and probably many of its readera havo ■peculated as to the significance attach ing to tbe two words. As tbe writer understands it, Gambrl nun, in German mythology occupies a similar position with Bacchus in the Greek. With the difference tnat Gatn- brlntis was the god of malt liquors in stead of vinous. In the old legendary lore of Germany la many a rollicking atory of which this jovial god was the hero, anil his disci ples have grown In numbers throughout the dark and middle ages with a steady augmentation, and to the civilized world o( the present day, ale, porter and beer occupy a vital part In the gastronomic requirements o( every elate.

They Will Kina Happily To-Day For An Americus Young Mao. Last night one of tbe brightest young merchants who ever did business In Americus, Mr. Luther Ball, left for Eu- faula on a very pleasant errand. He was accompanied by au intimate friend, Col.

Dr. Wincheeter quickly eucceeded in bringing bis patient around, and from bis examination Is confident that West attempted suicide and neither his wife or himself wished tho fact known..

Berlin, Oct. 97.— It is stated on the authority of au intimate friend of Bis marck that lie will in all probability not lie n regular attendant nt the com ing session of the reiclistng but will only be present when subjects which he con siders of vital interest are presented for discussion. The prince has not altered his views as to the tneUHce held out by Socialiam to Hie institutions of Ger many, and thia he views as the most sing issue of the time. He is also opposed to any policy which reluxes the protection heretofore given to the in- luttrinl and agricultural interests of tbe empire. When these subjects come up, he will iiudonbtedly be heard, but it is not liclieved that he will go out of his way to criticise the reichstag’s per sonal course, however much he way antagonize feature.
