AMERICUB TIMES-RECORDER
TWO BORED BY BULLET
AS PREACHER IS BUSY
Gunfest at Churches Last
Sunday.
Jack Council is Killed
During a Rain of
Bullets.
While “Old Hundred'’ was being
sung by the negro congregation at Old
Corinth church, east of Americus, on
Sunday evening, a hundred pistol and
rifle shots fired by gamblers in a
grove near the building added snap
and spirit to the proceedings and gaw
the grave digger a job.
! tek Council rode at the Head of
the procession yesterday as the result
of the gun work, and now Sheriff
Feagin is trying to get a line upon one
Ike Heard.
While Heard is heard not, it is
doubted that he did the shooting.
A quiet game of “craps” was be
ing pulled off among a score of black
cruppers who considered tire sermon
a bore. The usual gun play followed
ere the game had progressed far and
many shots were fired.
Ike Heard, knowing that the ser
vices might prove a trifle dull, had
carried his Winchester rifle to church
as an auxiliary fuss maker. When
ihe shootfest opened he rushed to his
buggy to get his hardware, and manv
shots were fired, probobly 50 or more,
wh'Lle he was thus abreast.
He may be able to prove that Coun
cil was perforated with bullets and
dead before his return.
The services at Corinth church were
largely attended and the killing of
Council added no little to the features
of the meeting.
While this work pistolric was pro
gressing at Corinth, in one part of
the county, another coonetic encoun
ter was pulled off upon the bloody
fields of Andersonville, wherein John
Caldwell’s hide was punctured by a
bullet during a successful social stunt
in blackdom.
A “turpentine nigger,” it is said,
put a hole in Caldwell’s tire, and
while he was not dead yesterday morn
ing, the coroner is awaiting a hurry
call there.

BANK CLERK IS HIKING
AND CASH IS SHORT
Albany Man’s Books Shows
Deficit.
Albany, Ga., July 19.—1 t became
known here that Minor AVinchester, a
young clerk employed at the Citizens
First National Bank, in charge of the
collection department, disappeared
Friday night and that he is short in
his accounts to the extent of more than
SI,OOO.
Discrepancies Dad been discovered
in the young man’s accounts, but he
insisted that they were due to clerical
errors and could easily be explained.
He promised to return to the bank
after supper Friday night and assist
officials of the bank in checking up
books. He failed to show up, and has
not been seen since. Subsequent inves
tigations have revealed the fact of his
alleged shortage.
Winchester was under bond for more
than the amount of his shortage and
the matter has been reported to tire
surety company carrying the bond.
Sale starts today; will close next
Wednesday night. Don't put it off.

SENATE KILLS BILL
INCREASING SALARIES.
State University Gels Ap
propriation.
(Special to Times-Recorder.)
Atlanta, Ga., July 19.—Little busi
ness of importance was executed in
either branch of the general assembly
today.
In the senate the only '.bill of any
importance whatever considered was
that increasing the salaries of judges
of the State Supreme court, which'
was passed.
In the house, after considerable dis
cussion, the bill appropriating $15,000
for the installation of a heating plant
in the Slate University at Athens failed
of passage.
The house e rnmitee on public prop
er y held an interesting session this
morning, during which it was brought
out that A. M. Walker, of 207 Pul
liam street, was the author of the let
ter written to Thomas E. AVatson, :n
which charges* of graft were made
{•.gainst Keeper of Buildings and
Grounds J. Lee Barron.
Walker, who was a witness before
1 hie committee at first declined to an
swer a question as to whether or not
l e was the author of the letter, and
the admission came only after lie
had been warned that by persisting iu
Iris refusal to answer he would subject
Himself to a jail sentence for con
tempt. lie finally frankly acknow
ledged he had no basis for any of the
charges contained in the letter.
After the conclusion of Walker's tes
timony the committee voted to report
to the house that here is noth'ing in the
c harges against Barron, and a commit
tee of four were appointed to draw up
Ihe formal report to the house.

Atlanta to Macon 97.8.mi1e5.
Macon to Americus ...83.0 miles.
The above is the speedmeter read
ing of the “Round-the-State” pathfind
ing ear which came in from Macon
yesterday afternoon and drew' up at
the Times-Recorder office about five
o’clock.
In the scout car were Frank Wel
don, R. V. Conuerat. Francis Price,
and Alike Leather wood, mechanician.
Air. Weldon is representing the Times-
Recorder, Alacon Telegraph, Atlanta
Constitution, Augusta Chronicle and
twenty other papers. ATr. Connerat
is manager of the Buick Automobile
Company’s Southern branch, and Mr.
Price is a photographer making pic
tunes of the roads.
C. K. Ausley, of Bainbridge, who >s
returning from a motor tour through
the North, accompanied the scouts in
his Buick roadster.
The party left Atlanta Monday
morning and left Alacon yesterday
morning in a rain.
Mr. Weldon states that the rain con
tinued all the way to Fort Valley. Ala
con county was visited by a terrific
rain early in the morning. Conse
quently, the roads were muddy all the
way to Ellaville.
The tourists were met near Monte
zuma by a delegation representing the
Board of Trade of that city and were
guests at a barbecue given at the
Alacon county convict camp. All the
eommissiiners were present, along
with ex-Congressman Elijah Lewis
and Senator Ilayets and thirty others.
Mayor Tift, of Albany, wired
Americus to know' when the scout
car would leave here, stating that r.
delegation of Albany motorists would
meet them.
As it was late when tine visitors
reached Americus, and as they wished
to meet the people of Smifhville and
Leesburg, they decided to spend the
night here and go on to Albany this
morning.
Chairman Frank Sheffield took Air.
Weldon and City Editor’ Furlow, of
the Times-Recorder on a run out the
Leslie road.
Speaking of Sumter’s roads, Mr
AVeldon said:
“They are decidedly the best we
have seen. Bibb has fine roads, hut
Sumter keeps hers up rather better.
Your roads are magnificent. A4r. Con
uerat, who has traveled extensively,
declared he had never anywhere driv
en an auto over roads so consistently
good as those of Sumter county.

NEGRO WAS STRUNG UP
AND BODY IS RIDDLED
Fiend Made Attack Upon
Two Ladies.
Sylvania, Ga., July 19.—Ending a
chase that began Saturday, a passe of
Screven county citizens strung up
Evan Roberts, a negro, to the limb of
a big oak tree in the lower part <>t
the e unty between Capitola and
Oliver last night and poured at least.
500 bullets into his body.
Their act avenged the' negro’s at
tack upon two white women who were
driving along a lonely road Saturday
afternoon.
To the fact that the nr'gro’s fren
zied attack frightened the horse
attached to the buggy in which the
women xvere riding is probably due
tile failure of his attempt. The horse,
eluding the efforts of the negro to
catch it, ran away and though Roberts
pursued, pistol in hand, the thorough
ly scared animal bore its charges to
safety.
