A BIG SUIT.
FILED IN AMERICUS INVOLVING
MUCH PROPERTY.
It la an Ejectment Salt—And Saua for Prop
erty A moan tins to 925,000—The Water
Works Groundflncludcd—Also (that of the
■Ameiicua Contaructlon Company.
A big ejectment suit lias been tiled in
Clerk Allen’s offico, involving somo $25,-
000 worth of property.
The parties against whom the suit is
tiled were notilied of the fact yesterday.
The land in question is tho northern
part of the city, includoB tho pumping
station of the waterworks, tho Americas
Construction Company and a number of
small tenemont houses.
The plaintiffs are children of W. J.
Hosworth, deceasod.
Thcso aro just recently come of age,
and now through thoir attornoys, Hud
son A Blalock and W. P. Wallace, have
llled the suit of ojectment.
Tho property in question came into
the possession of the plaintiffs through
their grandmother to thoir father. The
latter died before all the children came
of age, and Mr. L. B. Bosworth was
made exeautor of the estate. Nearly
ten years ago tho property was sold to
Elbert Head, who in turn sold portions
of it to other parties.
It will be a case of great interest, not
only on account of its size, but because
of the legal points said to bo involved.
The ground on which is tho city pump
ing station is involved, and this too adds
to tho general interest.
It means a big thing for the plaintiffs if
they win. All the heirs are not repre
sented in the suit, and those who arc,
are, of course, merely suing for their
parts.
Another branch has also been entered
by the plaintiffs. They enter suit
against the executor for account in set
tlement, and claim they have never had
a settlement although they came here
for that purpose from their homes in
Alabama.
Sumter Item*.
Sumter, Ga., April 27.—[Special]—The
cool nights we have been having for the
past week is damaging the cotton crop
very much. Most of tho farmors have
finished planting cotton and somo of
them aro chopping.
There was a school picnic at Boar
Brandi last Saturday, given in honor of
the scholars of the Sumter high school.
All prosent enjoyed the occasion very
much. The dinner was bountifully
spread, and the afternoon was passed in
different amusements. All those shat
did not have sweethearts paid most of
their attention to the mosquitoes and
redbugs.
Mr. J. M. Holland and daughter, Miss
Annie, of Bronwood, paid Sumter a
pleasant visit this week.
Miss Georgia Brown, of Macon, is the
guest of Mrs. J. M. Rodgers.
A young indy of Jcfforson, Wost Vir
ginia, declares that she was all run down
beforo taking Ayer’s Sarsaparilla; but
that now she is gaining strcngtli every
day. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is certainly a
wonderfully effective tonic for the feoblo
and delicate.
To Open a Store.
Mr. B. W. Wheeler leaves to-day for
Kincbafooneo station, where he will
open a store under the firm name of B.
YV. Wheeler & Co. He has been in tho
employ of Capt. 1’. II. Williams for
soveral years past, and is a young man
of recognized ability. lie has bought
Ids stock of goods, and will have them
shipped to-day
The station is just six miles west of
Buena Vista, on tho plantation of Col.
E. G. Simmons.
Mr. Wheeler’s many Amoricus friends
wisli him all succoss in his new venture.
A Change of llate.
Messrs. Rogers & Wilder, proprietors
of the popular “Racket Store,” have re
moved from the Hart building, on For
syth street, to Mr. H. D. Watts’ hand
some new building on north Lee street.
In the meantime Mr. Watts has fitted
up a store room in the rear of his com
modious building on the corner, the en
trance being on Forsyth street opposite
the court house.
A dry, hacking cough keeps the bron
chial tubes in a state of constant irrita
tion, which, if not speedily removed,
may lead to bronchitis. So prompter
remedy can he had than Ayr
Pectoral, which is both an an
expectorant.
Ground has at last been broken for
the long talked of monument in New
York to General Grant. The opening of
the twentieth century will possibly wit
ness the unveiling of it. In the mean
time, the movement to erect a monu
ment to Jefferson Davis must not be al
lowed to lag. Action was taken on the
recent meeting of the Southern Press As
sociation in Memphis, and it will be fol
lowed up vigorously.—Enquirer.

Nkgkoks now serve on juries in many
of the southern states, and in Georgia
they have done so for fifteen yoars. It
is a noticeable fact that when colored
men are on trial they beg for white
juries, or at least for a mixed panel. A
prosperous lawyer in Atlanta whose
name is Lyons, is a colored man who
earned his living by teaching a mulatto

It is now evident that the coming seal
ing season will pass without a settlement
of the Rehripg sea controversy, fhe
Sayward case in the Supreme Court was
postponed till the October term, and
hence a decision in it can hardly be ren
dered before next winter. The diplo
matic controversy is in a fair way of be
ing submitted to arbitration, but it will
he some time before a decision Is reach
ed. Meanwhile, there is not likely to be
any seizure of sealers by our revenue
steamers.

We trust to be forgiven this parody of
lines from Longfellow’ s immortal
Psalm of Life.” Husbands who are
wise and thoughtful, know thatjtlie hap
piness of the home depends largely on
the health of the mistress of the home.
Many aro the tasks which daily confront
her. How can a woman contend against
the trials and worries of housekeeping,
if she be suffering from those distress
ing irregularities, ailments and weak
nesses peculiar to her sex? I)r. Pierce’s
Favorite Prescription is a specific for
these disorders. The only remedy, sold
by druggists, under a positive guarantee
from the manufacturers. Satisfaction
guaranteed in every case, or money re
funded. See printed guarantee on

The medical fraternity, backed up by
carefully compiled statistics, is almost a

A DUTY TO YOURSELF.
It is surprising that people will use a
common ordinary pill when they can se
cure a valuable English one for the
same money. Dr. Acker’s English
pills are a positive cure for sick head
ache and all liver troubles. They are
small, sweet, easily taken, and do not
gripe. For sale by Fleetwood & Rus

Put Me In My Little Bed.
I am d w.y, dizzy, dizzy;
And I want to go to bed,
I’ve no appetite to eat,
And headache racks my head,
in other words, 1 am suffering from a
bilious attack, but Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant
Pellets will bring me around all right by
to-morrow. They often cure headache
in an hour. I have found them the best
cathartic pill in existence. They pro
duce no nausea or griping, hut do their
work thoroughly. They are convenient
to carry in the vest-pocket, and pleasant
to take. In vials; 25 cents.

A CHILD KILLED.
Another child killed by the use of
opiates given in the form of soothing
syrup. Why mothers give their chil
dren such deadly poison is surprising
when they can relieve the child of its
peculiar troubles by using Dr. Acker’s
