MONTEZUMA PLAYS HERE FRIDAY Suffers Under Delusion That It Is Going to Win. CLOSE GAME IS BEING LOOKED EOR Permission Has Been Given to Monte zuma To Bring a Couple of Hired Players Along—A Battle Royal .. r of the Season Antici pated. i Montezuma is coming down to Am- , ericus Friday primed with the hope ( of taking home the scalp of the local baseball team as a trophy of the hot test game of ball ever played here. But, of course, they will be doomed to dlsappintment. They will put up a good game. There Is no doubt of that. But Americus will put up a better. Permission has been cheerfully granted the Montezuma captain to bring two or three hired players. Ills team is short some of its usual twirl ers and so a professional or two will be added to strengthen it and put it in shape for the battle royal of the season. Montezuma lias really got a fine team, one of the best in all Southwest Georgia. They have a feeling of local pride aroused, too, that will make them put up the best there is In them. But no one here expects other than a defeat for the visitors, although a close game Is generally expected. The Americus twirlers are in fine condition, our team being probably the strongest amateur club that has been got together here in many seasons. Americus i salso short one of its regular team, Dunn, who ha sheen at Tybee, doing military duty under the surveillance of Uncle Sam. However, with Hooks as a substitute the local * club should be able to hold its own well against any aggregation than can be brought against It. " Pau ISanford, who held down second In the early part of the season, Is In |i town and will be in this game. It is hoped that there will be a large turnout. The grand stand al ways has a cool breeze blowing over I It. 1 * THE PEOPLE ALL t ID Chorus Cried, Give Us Newbro’s Herpicide. This word of late has been In every- I one’s mouth, and many are wondering l what the word signifies, though no one has yet been found, who will deny that I NgWBRO’S HERPICIDE does the wont. Well, for the information of thousands of people who like to know all about a good thing, we would say that HERPICIDE means, a destroyer or killer of “Herpes,” Now "Herpes” is the family name of a ■ disease caused by various vegetable par asites. A similar microbe causes dan druff, itching scalp, and falling hair; this is the microbe that NEWBRO’S HERPI CIDE promptly destroys; after which the hair grows.

HER CLOTHING WAS SET ON TIRE When Came to Rolled Into the Rain and it Saved Her from Serious Burns—Badly Shocked Bui Will Recover. The terrific stroke of lightning, that came without premonition about 5:30 o’clock yesterday afternoon, as a pre lude to a heavy rain, struck Eliza Frazier, a colored woman, living at the north end of Jackson street. The woman was standing at the open window, about to draw in a shutter. Tlie lightning struck her on the arm, ran up her arm to the shoulder and then down her side, setting her cloth ing on fire, and stunning her tempor arily. When she came to her clothing fyas in a b!|fie. Fortunately the heavy rain had started, and she rolled, although in great pain, into .the street, where the flames were speedily extinguished. Dr. McMath was summoned and gave her the necessary attention. Although badly shocked she will probably re cover. A clock and one or two other arti cles in the room were damaged by the lightning. Long Livo the King is the popular cry throughout European countriesffwhile in America, the cry of the present day is “Long live l)r. King’s New Discovery, King of Throat and Lung Remedies!” of which Mrs. Julia Ryder Paine, Truro, Mas., says; “It never fails to give immediate re lief and to quickly cure a cough or cold.” Mrs. Paine’s opinion is shared by a majority of the inhabitants ot this country. New Discovery cures weak lungs and sore throats after all other remedies have failed; and for coughs and colds it’s the only sure cure. Guar anteed by Eldridge Drug Co, 50c and SI.OO.

It is the Virgina-Carolina Chemical . fretilizer trust,” said Senator Hays, Monday afternoon, before the appro priations committee, in arguing against the bill to increase fees for fertilizer inspection from 10 to 25 cents per ton. Such strong opposition developed to Chairman Hardman's bill for in creasing the inspection fees that the committee adjourned to consider the bill at another meeting. It is appar ent that there is considerable oppo sition to this measure, and it may fail of favorable recommendation. C. B. Burhans testifies af.er 4 years G. B. Burhans, of Carlisle Center, N.

FODDER PULLING IS NOW ON, Com Crop Motored Fortnight Earlier Than Usual. f YIELD IS ABOUT THE AVERAGE , With This the Case and a Line Crop of Cotton, and High Prices, Why Should Any One Feel Other Than Sanguine as to the Fall and Winter Outlook in the City and County? Capt. John A. Cobb brought in a stalk of corn from his Cobbham place yesterday, on which were six good ears of corn. The corn was of the Little Cobb variety, which has been raised around Americus for some years. Whis this stalk may have been exceptional there is plenty of corn out on his place that lias sev eral ears of corn to the stalk . Fodder pulling is in active pro gress all over Sumter county now. - This work is about ten days to two ■ weeks ahead of ordinarily. This may be due either to the heavy use of fertilizers, forcing the growth and rapid development of the plant, or it 1 may be due to atmospheric conditions ’ to a considerable extent. At one time it was thought Sum ter would make an extraordinary >’ crop of corn this year. Then the pendulum swung the other way and it was feared that the corn crop would be disappointingly small. Now it is said that will probably pretty well average up to the ordinary crop of this county. With an average yield of corn, a good crop of cotton, 12 cents as the prevailing price during its market ing, and tile farmers all in good shape to begin with, what reason is there to anticipate anything but a prosperous fall and winter ahead for Sumter and Americus?
