AMERICITS TIMES -RECORDER EDITORS POURED IN FROM ALL DIRECTIONS Arrangements Completed for Their Entertainment Ball Game to Precede the Drive and Peach Feast Today. Editors poured in from all direc tions yesterday. They began arriving on the first Central train of the morn ing. They arrived in on. t.hs Seaboard early afternoon trains, and the night trains on the Central added largely to tbe number already here. This morning there will he a further considerable addition to the gathering. By the hour President Hardy calls the Press Association to order at the Car negie Library hall, there will be rep resentatives of over one hundred pa pers in Americus. With) their wives and daughters and other visitors al lied with the weekly papers of the state there will he between two hun dred and two hundred and fifty vis itors. The committee on accommodations did not cease its work yesterday morn ing as there weie still a number un irovided for. As a result of their la bors, though arrangements were completed for entertaining all pros ; etive guests, either in private homes ;*/o at the hotels. It was with a feel ing of great relief unit the committee saw its somewhat arduous labors at an end. A reception committee met the va rious trains on their arrival with au tos and street hacks, introduced them selves to the arriving visitors, and escorted to homes where they ire to be entertained. A gracious wel come met the visitors everywhere, the only regret being that a rainy day should befall them. Whan the com mittee had performed its duty for the last train at night It was stated thn one one hundred and fifty guests had been cared for. This morning mem gers of tho committee will meet the ifirly trains and their labors will cease. Oilier committees wore also at work yesterday. The fact that today there is a promise of a fine ball game was not lost sight of, and it was decided ,o arrange for the visitors to wit ness the game before starting on the auto ride over some of Sumter’s good roads. A conference of a small com mittee and the directors of the ball club was arranged far and plans nade whereby every visitor will be entertained in this fashion. The hall game will he called at 3:30, and it if. expected to he over’ by 5 o'clock. Then the autos will be taken for a drive of an hour and a half, with an intermis sion at the Ware orchard, where Man ager Glawson has arranged a peach feast that, if toe day is fair, will long be remembered by the visitors, the finest Elbertns that are ripe having been selected for their refreshment. This will also afford .the guests an >pjK>r'unity to see a large orchard during the marketing season. Every facility will be extended them to in spect the orchard and obtain an ex cellent idea of the extent of some of the fruit farms around Americus. The ride, of course, depends on the weather. If it rained again last night, or if it should rain again this morn ing, it will probably be necessary to strike the ride from the program, as He roads, after so many rains during the past two or three weeks will be too slippery to make the auto ride en joyable. It is to be hoped the ride can be pulled off, but it all depends on whether the sun shines or the clouds gal her today. If not it will be both 1 to the loss of the visitors and of the citizens of Americus who desired to extend them this courtesy. TWO LIVES LOST IN S. A. L. WRECK.
