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.

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.
