HORSE FELL IN BRIDGE
BUT LIFE IS SAVED
Fishing Party Has Lively Ex
perience.
Messrs. Arthur Rylander and Oscar
Loving were looking yesterday for a
runaway horse that had tumbled into
a railway trestle, swam a millpond,
outrun a fast Central Railway pass
enger train, and then took to the
woods.
And at last reports this equine
prodigy was still in the timber unless,
like Maud, he had kicked the train
off the track and kicked the old mill
pond dry.
Wells’ mill was the scene of the
fearful experience, and the previous
night the time.
These disciples of Isaac Walton
were fishing at the mill, and had an
chored the horse to a convenient sap
ling. Early in the night the old steed
slipped his andchdr and set sail down
the railroad track in the direction of
Americus —and fodder.
Soon they heard a crash, and knew
full well the meaning. The horse had
fallen into a trestle a short distance
from the mill.
They hurried to the rescue, and
found the nag, as expected, wedged
down between the crossties. It re
quired an hour’s hard work to prize
him out—valuable time when the
fish were biting best.
As the nag regained his feet on
the trestle he astonished the owners
by plunging headlong into the pond
from that dizzy height. That settled
it, and they prepared for a walk to
town while lamenting slightly the loss
of their steed.
But the horse was game and had no
idea of race suicide.
By the bright moonlight the men
saw him swim across the pond and
again plant himself squarely and de
fiantly on the railroad.
Mr. Rylander set out to catch him,
not having a gun at hand wherewith
to stop him otherwise, and then began
a lively sprint of three miles. The
old horse kept the track ,and the “dou
ble header” thus rushed on towards
Americus.
Very soon Mr. Rylander heard the
approach of the passenger train from
Montgomery, and, fearing a possible
wreck, he flagged it and told the en
gineer of the presence of the horse
down the track. What the engineer
said went up in smoke.
The old horse cither outran the
train to Americus, or else took to the
woods, as he has not since been seen
here.

AMERICUS TO ASSIST
FUND FOR ORPHANS
Next Saturday is Orphans Day
In Georgia.
* Next Saturday, 28th, is Orphan’s
Work Day. On this day the friends
of the various institutions where
orphans are cared for, and sympathiz
ers with unfortunate humanity gen
erally, will set aside the proceeds of
the day’s labor and donate it to some
home for orphans of which there are
several in Georgia. The practice of
setting aside the earnings of this
day for such a noble cause was be
gun a few years ago and so heartily
j have the good people fallen in with
the idea that great financial aid has
been rendered these struggling and
praiseworthy institutions. It is one
of the red-letter days of the calendar
of the homes for fatherless and mo
therless children. Kind-hearted peo- j
pie of Americus will, as usual, con- j
tribute generously to this fund for the j
helpless little ones.

“Now,” said Tommy’s mother, “I
hope you’ll profit by that spanking

after.” ,
“800-hoo!” blubbered Tommy “I

Coton prices fell yesterday to the
eleven cents mark, and may break
through that barrier if the crop is
marketed rapidly.
The company of capitalists at the
head of the new electric enterprise in
Americus may likewise make invest
ments in Valdosta.
Up to this good hour the Americus
Board of Trade has not landed that
cotton factory. But it will keep right
on until it does.
*
The city court disposed of a few
unimportant cases yesterday, and
continued all jury business until a
later date in October.
Up to yesterday Americus had re
ceived 8,630 bales cotton by wagon.
Not bad at all, when the poor crop
here is considered.
There are two more places in the
police force to be filled, and they will
not go begging, although the job only
lasts to January Ist.
The millinery openings will he
in full bloom next week, and then
poor Pa will kiss that dollar good
bye and hunt oblivion.
Americus rod wielders are catch
ing fine trout in Muckalee these line
fall days. Philo Smith caught a fine
5 1-2 pounder yesterday.
It is an even bet, and a safe one,
that electric cars will be running in
Americus within one year from Octo
ber Ist. Now how’s that?
The Americus Tile and Artificial
Stone Co. is doing some splendid work
is laying the new concrete pave

Thad Glover has just returned from
a month’s outing on the upper St.

had fine sport in fishing.
Just about a ago Uncle Sam
bought for $15,000 a fine site for a
postoflice in Americus. Wonder what
he is going to do with it.
The Americus market is still long
on watermelons. What a country is
ours, supplying this great delicacy
from June until October.
Quite a number of Americus Bap
tists will go out to New Hope church
Friday to attend the big meeting of
the Friendship Association.
Up to a late hour yesterday neither
City Clerk Hawkes or Tax Collector
Small complained of overwork in
writing out 1907 tax receipts.
/The vast improvement made in
Americus this year, in streets and
buildings, is a source of wonder to
citizens who see it every day.
