BOLD THEFT OF 'a HORSE.
Negro Boy Caught With Animal Hear
The Blaine.
Li at. Cobb and Mr. W. D. Haynes
bad a lively chase after a horse thief
yesterday morning, capturing the
negro and also recovering the stolen
inimal, after a run of ten or twelve
miles.
Late Monday afternoon Mr. Haynes
lent his horse to the fountain near
Lockett’s stables, in charge of a negro
boy, Henry Tneker, bnt instead of re
turning the animal to the stable
Tucker started to the Pacific slope. He
rode the horse abont town right mer
rily that night, and varly yesterday
morning headed for the west.
All of Monday night the horse was
kept tied in the yard of Fnrlow school,
and while this fact waB known to the
jmitor, it is said, no reuort was made
of it to the offioers who were assisting
Mr. Haynes in the hunt *
Yesterday morning Mr. Haynes and
Lieut. Cobb got on Tucker’s trail and
esught him near Plaint. The stolen
horse wns badly jaded but not hurt.
Tucker was brought back and lodged
iu jail. He has been in trouble before,
but this escapade will probably land
him in the penitentiary.
DEATH OF JOHN J. McNEAL.
A Former Citizen of Sumter Diet at
Tifton.
A telegram from Tifton yesterday
announced the death near that city of
Mr. John J. McNeal. The deceased
was 49 years of age and formerly re
sided near Americas. He was a broth
er of George W. and Joseph McNeal,
of this connty. -
Death of William J. Gunn.
After an illness of several weeks Mr.
William J. Gunn died yesterday at bis
home on Jefferson street. He had
been a resident of Americas for a long
somber of years and was esteemed by
*11. The deceased was a Confederate
'oldier, and the fnneral from his late
residence at 2:80 o’clock this afternoon
will be attended by his former com
mies.
TO CANCEL THE CHURCH DEBT.
Bonds Will Be Issued and all Debts
Cancelled.
The First Baptist ohurch of this city
will shortly issue bonds to the amount
of $6,000 and will nse tbe proceeds to
cancel the entire indebtedness resting
upon that property. The bonds will
be of the denomination of $100, bear
ing interest at the rate of 6 per cent,
and the entire jssue will be taken up
bt the end of ten years.
This plan was practically determined
upon at a meeting of tbe churchrmem
bers held on Monday evening last
When the handsome ehnreh build
ing was completed some six or seven
years ago at a coat of835,00(1, a balanoe
of perhaps $11,000 was due thereupon.
This debt has since been reduced
nearly one half, while tbe noble women
oomprising the organization of Home
Workers paid annually the interest on
the debt with funds made at their ba
zaar, besides aiding materially in re
ducing tbe principal.
While the entire debt wonld, in
time, have been paid off in this way
the ehnreh membership decided npon
bond issue as tbe easiest and moat
desirable way to do it, and securities
to the amonnt of $6,000 will soon be
issued.
There will be no difficulty in selling
the entire issne, as more than half the
amonnt has already been subscribed
and tbe remaining secarities will be
qaiokly taken. The members of this
chorch have worked faithfully and
earnestly towards tbe payment of their
indebtedness, and, are indeed to be
congratulated npon the signal success
already aohieved.

Fifteen varieties of field corn entered
into this competition for first place. I
was intended to include ouly snob vari
ties as were anppoaed to be of practicallv
the same gaueral habit of growth and
period of maturity; because a test ot
two varieties, one of which prodnees i

while tbs other is of robust habit and
later variety, wonld generally prove un
fair to one or the othor, ofteuer to tb»
■mailer aud earlier variety.' Two vari
eties, however,—Shannon' * Early and
Jlrown't Early Prolific—von included
in the list of tested varieties, and all
were planted under the same conditions
aa to time, distance and fertilization.
One sore of gray, loamy soil witli
mostly yellow elay subsoil, was selected
for the test. It is one of the best acres
on the farm, aud produced a yield of
abont 33 bnshels-of corn in 1891. There
were 52 rows across the sere, |>ermitting
a triplication of each variety aud some

TABLE NO. L
Handsome Dividend to
Stockholders.
Tbe Americus Grooery Co. did the
handsome thing by its stockholders
yesterday, as has ever been done since
organization a little more than eight
years ago’ It was the regular semi
annual meeting, and while the direc
tors knew that the company did
prosperous business last year they
were hardly prepared for the splendid
showing made.
After hearing the reports of Presi
dent Frank Lanier and Secretary and
Treasurer B. L. McMath, the direotors
declared a oaah dividend of 8 per cent
npon the capital stock of $100,000, be
sides adding largely to the account of
anrplns and undivided profits.
The 'Americas Grocery Co. was or
ganized in 1880, and since the begin-
ning hss had a prosperous and suc
cessful career, as evidenced by the fact
that daring the eight years of its ex
istence the company has paid to stock
holders in dividends the enormous
sum of $84,000, and this npon a eapital
stock of $100,000. The Times-Becor-
deb does not believe this splendid
record can be beaten by any similar
enterprise in the entire South.
There have been years of depression
within this period, bnt tbrongh it all
the Americas Grocery Co, pnshed for
ward to greater prosperity and extend
ed its trade to every part of southern
and aonthweat Georgia, and ia today
one of the largest and most successful
wholesale houses in the atate.
Aa evidence of their high apprecia
tion of services rendered, the directors
yesterday, by rising vote, extended
thanks to President Frank Lanier;
Vioe President A. Bylander; Second
Vice President Henry Lanier and Sec
retary and TrensnrerB. L. Mevatb,

ens Grocery Company. Americas is
indeed proud of this splendid borne
enterprise.

For La Grippe Has Been Discovered
at Last.
The following letters were written to
Dr. Hartman by Mr. Joseph Barnhill,
Dawson, Mo Both he and his wife
bail been suffering irom catarrh and
the effects of la grippe for years. Pe
ru--is cured them both. He says: “I
wish to inform you of tho benefit your
I’e-ru-oa has been to myself and wife.
I had been troubled
with catarrh for
some years; then I
bad la grippe, which
left me in terrible
distress. My wife,
'who ia in her 68th
year, had la grippe
also, which left her
with pain in side and
back, with which
she suffered for one
ye.r. We have taken four bottle* of
your Pe-ru-na and find ourselves free
from catarrh and the effeota of la
grippe.’’ Again he writes latest: It
has been five years amee I took the Pe
rn na and I am still free from catarrh.
I feel safe in recommending it to tnoie
who have catarrh. I hope you may be
able to extend the knowledge of Pe-ru-
na far and wide as one of the finest
tonics, and one of the medicines beat
adapted to the human system.

to tboee who have had mnch experience

_ Jackson’s "limbless” cotton.
Press Bulletin 36, Ootober, 1897, gave
some interesting particular! in regard
to this so-called "limbless" cotton, Th*
following is a reprint of the article on
the aobjpct ae it originally appeared in
that luce bulletin:
“This so-called 'Jaokeon'a Limbless
Cotton' was first brought before the
public, miner this name, in tbe fall of
1890. It was said to have sprang from
seeds ohtuiued in 1895 iu Central Africa.
It was claimed that it belonged to a
new tinm.-; that it wonld produce four
to six bales of Hint per acre on ordinary
nplaud; unit the but is extra long, flue
aud rtroag, etc.
The claim of African origin, and that
it ie of a new gnnos of Gossypinm, seems
to have been abandoned, and the sched
ule of ita inorit* ie aa followe:
This ci>tPm has become famous
throughout the ootton growing world,
aud it seems destined to work a revolu
tion In the cotton bnaineu.
(1) It ib entirely limbless
(2) The stalk grows from 10 to 14 (set
high.
(3) Tbe fibre is incomparably tha
finest in the world.
(4) The
one and
white, and lias a satin-like touch.
(5) We have four acres in cultivation
this seaaou, and expert cotton growers
aay that we will get 20 bales from tba
four am na—Unit is, five bales to tbe
acre. '
(6) it is the most proliflo cotton in
tbe world.’
The prioe first fixed for seeds of this
‘Limbless’ was $1.00 per 100 seeds, or
$2.50 per 600 seeds At $1.00 per 100
seeds one pound would coet $50.00, and
one bushel $1,800:001 The price has re
cently been reduced to $7.00 par pound
of seed, or $210.00 per btubell’
The abo\ e are the olaime pot forward
for this reiuurkable ootton by ita pro
moters.
After considerable difficulty th* Di
rector smceeded in getting a email quan
tity of tbe seed (of unquestioned parity)
and they were planted in direct compe
tition with 20 other varietiea compris
ing the Station’* ‘Variety Test’ Of
coarse all the' condition* affecting the
21 varieties were made precisely the
ie fibre ie remarkably strong and
4 half inches long, perfeotly
same‘as far aa practicable.
Than followed a table showing tha
total yfe^per acre of each of the 21 va
rieties up to and inolnding Ootober 6,
the date of tha third picking, showing
that tba so called "Limbless” stood 10th
in polut of total yield of seed ootton.
Bnt aa th* final picking is now avail
able, that preliminary tabla is hare
omitted.' The Frees Bulletin Na 85
goes o* to say:
"The final pickings will probably
make a material ehanga in tbe rank of
some of the varieties; bat it it not prob
able tbat Na 10 will be materially
obangad.
Very soon after the ootton commenced
to limb and square, and each variety to
de^lp whatever was peculiar to itself,
it was stupefied that tha ‘Jackson Limb
less’ waa either identical with a certain
o(d variety.' or oloaely related to it. Af
ter the boll* commenced to open the
DirSotor became satisfied tbat tbe so-
represented new ‘limbless’ variety, waa
identical with tbe old variety above al
luded to, viz: 'Weibom’a Pat,’ whiob
waa growu on this Station in 1890 and
1892. Correspondence with the origi
nator of 'Weiborn’s Pat’ variety, and
exohaugeof sections of stalks, confirmed
tbie conclusion of tbe identity of the so-
ealled of inborn' with ‘Welborn'e Pet,'
in the judgment of both Mr. Welbprn
and the Director.
It is thereiore confidently affirmed
that ‘Jackson’s Limbless Ootton’ and
Weiborn’s Pet’ are one and tba same
variety.
'Welboru'e Pet* baa bean before tha
people for 10 or 12 years. /
Now for (Iu- specific claims made for
tbe -Jackson Limbless' by It# promoters,
before eunmm.ited:
(1) It tv not ‘entirely limbless,’ bnt is
Inclined to produce several (often five
or six) long branches from near the
ground. Wben vary oloaely crowded
in the drill, however, many stalks will
be without these limbs, aud their nor-
mal.teudency (aa with Minster* cotton*
-generally) to grow tall ia mnch in
creased.
(2) The stalks grow from 15 to 20 per
cent taller than most ordinary varieties
on the same soil On exceedingly rioh
■oil. encli as a rioh alluvial, or a vary
highly raaunred spot, they may attain'
a height of 10, 12 or even 14 fees
(8) The fibre (lint) Is fairly good, but
nothing extraordinary. It does not com
pare at all with Sea Island, Egyptian,
or even witn Allen’s Long Staple in the
above list, aud wonld not cotnmaud a
higher price than tba ordinary upland
short staples
(4) The fibre i* not remarkably itrong,
and ia not one and a half inches long.
It* length is from )* to % of an inch
long, averaging about % ot an inch.
(5) Tha Director visited and examined
tha ‘four acre*’ referred ta early iu
September, and estimated tbat a yield
of 1% bales per acre might possibly be
•scared, with favorable (ntore condi
tions. Tbe land on wbioh tbs four acre
K itcb waa growing has been under very
gh culture for years end was heavily
fertilized with cow droppings end oom- ■
merclal fertilizers the present year; and
in tha opinion of tha Director is capable
of producing 60 bushel* of corn per acre.
(6) The Station teat* of 1890 and 1882
of ‘Welbm’a Pet’ aud ot ‘Jackaon’a
Limbless’ the present year prove that
it ie not the most prolific cotton in the
world.’
In eonolniion, the Director desires to
say that this cotton ia a 'fairly good va
riety on rich soils, or nnder high cat-
tar*. Mr. Welborn ssye it is not suited
to poor land and poor culture. For years
past ha has been carefully developing
ita peculiarities witn a view to fixing a
variety that will be belter adapted to
harvesting with thsMaobin* Harvester.
Especial attention ha* herein been
ealled to thi* eo-oalled ‘limbi***’ be-
sanserif the extraordinary claims that
have been made for it and the unprece
dented high.price asked for the seed.
These claims are so apparently plausi
ble tbat the unsuspecting and confiding
farmer ie liable to be indnoed to pay at
the rate of over $200 a bushel for the
aaed when the identical aama variety
of seed may be had for probably lass
than $2.00 per bnsheL"
As was intimated tha final picking
made a "material change In tbe rank of
some of tha variatiae." having special
reference to yields of seed cotton; so it
appears in Table Na 8 that this
variety stood 8tb in total yield of eeed
cotton per acre, gaining two points
in tbe scale. Owing to ita high per
centage yield of lint per owt. of teed
ootton—87.1 per cent (equalled in thie
respect by bnt one variety) it ranke
third in value of total prodnota, ae
shown in Table 8.
So much space and attention would
not have been given to this to-called
"Jackson's ‘Limbless’ Ootton,” but for
the fact that extraordinary efforts have
bean mad*, and are still being made, to
■ell th* seeds at enormoni prices to the
nninepectlug, and sometimes easily
humbugged farmer. The Director freely
admits that it ia a fairly good variety of
ootton, aud i* entitled to rank with
tha best iu point of productiveness. Its
merits entitle it to consideration at a
reasonable and jnet prloa for the eaed,
whiob ahould not be more than $1.60
fier bushel, so far aa can now be judged,
or equal to the prtoea charged for seed of
other improved varieties The olaime
made by the promoter! and exploiters
of this scheme are preposterously ab
surd and totally unsupported by the
result* ot th* carefully conducted testa
made on tha Station farm, a* above de
tailed. To illustrate: ItUoallad “limb-
less," bnt moet of th* stalks in tha Sta
tion test had two or more limbs,and some
of them (lx and sight wall developed
"limbs.” Ona in particular, which was
planted apart from th* main test, and
with plenty of distance, had eight long
and strong "limbs” or branches Of
matnred aud open bolla th* following is
tha atatiaUca of tbat stalk t
Main stem, 14 bolle; lit branob, 12
bolle; 2d branch, 19 bolla; 3d branob.
I boll; 4th branob, 10 bolle; 6lh branch,
II bolls; 6th branch, 18 bolls; 7th
branob, 11 bolla and th* 8th branch 8
bolla Grand total, 129 boils, ot whioh
there were on tbe main item 44, and on
tha 8 branobai 85 bolla Bnt It will grow
vary tall and wltbont “limb*" if closely
orowded and any inoipiant branches be
iromptly pinched or polled off, and tho*
>e consistent with Its name—"Limb
less.” Bnt the reatflti ot tbe experi
ments Indicate that the “Jacksonian
idea" that this variety should bs planted
one stalk every 3 or 4 ioohes in order to
Ive th* beet remits it totally fallacious,
n tbe contrary the Director believes
that better resnljs wonld be seonred if
a dittanca of 4x3 or 4x$ be given, pro
vided of conns the soil bt - rich. Tbie
wonld permit each stalk to attain a foil
development, inolnding several long
and fruitful "limbs,”

Cure for It.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to inouralile.
Tho usual symptoms are fnllofbloat-
ing sensation after eating accompanied
some time with sour or watery risings, a
formation of gases, canting pressure on
the heart and lungs and difficult breath
ing; headache, fickle appetite, nervous
ness and a general played ont, languid
feeling.
There is often afonl taste in month,
coated fongae, and if the interior of tho
stomach could be seen it wonld show a
slimy, inflamed oondition.
The care for this common and obsti
nate trouble ia found in a tr eament which,
causes the food to be readily, thoronghly
digested before it has tim6 to ferment
aud irritate the delicate mucous snr-
faces of the stomach.
To secure a prompt and healthy diges
tion is the one necessary thing to do and
when normal digestion is eeonred the ca-.
tarrlial oondition will have disappeared.
According to Dr. Hsrlanson the safest
and best treatment is to nse after each
meal a tablet composed of Diastasto,
Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nnx, Golden Sen!
and frnit adds.
These tablets can now bo found at all
driig stores nnder the name of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, not being a patent
medicine, oanbo nsed with perfectsafe-
ty and assnranco that heathy appetite
and thorough digestion will follow
tlioir regular nso after meals.
Mr. F. J. Booher,J!3710 Dearborn
street Chicago, HI., writes: “Catarrh
is a local oondition resulting from a
neglected cold in the head, whereby
the lining membrane pf the noso be
comes inflamed and the poieonons dis
charge therefrom, passing backward
into the throat, reaches the stomach,
thns prodndng catarrh of the stomach.
Medical authorities prescribed for me
three years for cdtnrrh of the stomach
without cure, bnt today I am the hap
piest of men after using only one box
of Stnart’B Dyspepsia Tablets. I can
not find appropriate words to express
my good feeling.
Stnart’s Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest preparation as wyll as simplest
and most convenient remedy for any
form of indigestion, catarrh of the
stomach, biliousness, soar stomach,
heartbnrn and bloating after meals.
Send for little book, mailed (reckon
stomach troubles, by addressing Stuart
Co., Marshall, Mich. The tablets can
he fonnd at a drag store.
