Pile white ineu who attempted to assassinate Judge Henry H. Singleta ry at La Crosse last Tuesday uight have just paid the penalty of that most utrocionB crime with their lives. Both were shot to pieces near Lees burg shortly after noon Thursday. Their crime was a most atrocious one and, uo doubt, the circumstances fully warranted the snmmary shooting of both yesterday by an armed posso which was trying to effect the arrest of the desperadoes. The posse was headed by Sheriff Martin, of Lee county, a bruve and in trepid officer, and was made up of men equally fearless. Chief of Police \Vheeler and City Murshal Feagiu, of Americus, were there. These two officers were in Leesburg, having trailed tbu robbers from this city whence they came after robbing Siugletary's sto-e and attempting to kill him on Tue.-day night last. The posse found the furgitives near the corporate limits of Leesburg. When order, d to surrender the rob bers, it is said, lined up to tight and each side lired about the same time. At the crack of the guns both robbers fell to the ground, each pierced by a load of buckshot. One was instantly killed and the other mortally wounded. The whole affair was ended in live minutes, and two lawless, would-be murderers thus put out of the way for all time. The robbers were game, and each carried a big Colt’s revolver,44 calibre. Very naturally the affair caused much excitement at Leesburg, where the dead and wounded robbers were carried as quickly as possible, a great crowd having gathered. The news of the killing created some excitement here as well. The wounded robber, it is said, con fessed to the robbery of Singletary's store and the attempt made upon his life. About §140 of the stolen money was recovered, by tho posse yesterday. The man also claimed that the two osided near Houston, Texas. At a late hour last night the fellow was still breathing, though, tho end was a mattor of a short time only ns he was shot almost to pieces. It was in deed a tragic fluale to a dastardly aud cowardly crime. BRANCH BANK AT ELLAVILLE. THAT THRIFTY TOWN TO HAVE FACILITIES For Banking—The Bank of Southwes tern Georgia to Establish a Branch Institution There Under Man agement of A. J. Walters. Americas’ thrifty little neighbor, Ellavillc, is going to have a bank right awnj\ For a long wbi | e the need of such an institution there has been felt, and the merchants aud citizens of the town are doubtless highly gratified at the fact that this great convenience is to be afforded them and at an early date The Bank of Southwestern Georgia is behind the movement to give Ella- ville a hank. This is one of the largest and most solid financial institutions in this part of the state, and its very liberal charter authorizes the establishment of branch banks in other cities, as well as to do business in Amoricus. The question has been carefully con sidered with the result as herein stated A day or two ago President J. W. Wheatley, Cashier Smith and Mr. R. J. Perry, of the board of directors went over to Ellaville for tho purpose of con ferring with merchants there upon this subject. This proposition met with favor; a well equipped building was secured and necessary details of the business perfected. The affairs of the branch bank will be directed by tho board of directors of tho Bank of Southwestern Georgia here, uud a liberal though conserva tive policy will be pursued in negotiat ing leans aud otherwise managing its affairs. Mr. A. J. Walters, of Ellaville, who was connected with tho old Planter^ Bank there, will be the local manager of the branch institution Besides being of assistance to mer chants aud business men of Ellaville, the Bank of Southwestern Georgia will derive great benefit in thus extendin its business in that direction where a desirable class of customers will be secured.

Etlis, resideut of Americus, was found at an early hoar yesterday morning under the railroad bridge spanning Spring Creek on tbe Alabama Midland Rail way, eleven miles west of Bainbridge. The aunouncement of . his tragic death was a great shock (6’ his family here. The first known of it was a telegram yesterday morning from Division Ku perintendent Fitzsimmons, of the Plant System, to Mayor Hixon, ap prising him of tho finding of the body at Spring Creek bridge. It was at once identified by letters fonnd in the dead man’s pockets. Mr. Ellis resided with his family at 628 East Fnrlow street, this city, leav ing recently for south Georgia search of work. Until reoeutly he was employed by the Central Railway on a section near Americus, but was probably out of em ployment at the time of his tragic death. The manner in whieh he was killed was not stated in the brief dis patch received yesterday from Supt, Fitzsimmons The sad news was carried to tho bo- reaved family hero as soon as possible. It is said that thoy are in reduced circumstances, and this terrible blow renders their condition all the more pitiable. Mrs. Ellis was very anxious to have the body of her husband brought bore for interment and the railroad authorities at Brinson wore so notified. The remains should reaSh Amerieus this morning. The bereaved wife and six fatherless little ones have tho sympathy of all in their great aflliction. Mr. Ellis was well known here and esteemed among his associates aud friends generally. f Working Night and Day. 'Ihe busiest end miqhtifst little thing hat ever wan made i» Dr. King’s Naw Life Pills.

New Baling is Now Effective Americas bnsiness men and others doing business with the banks are in terested in a new ruling relative to tbe affixing of revenne stamps to checks before presenting them for payment, the new rule being somewhat different from that in force quite reoently. A Washington dispatch yesterday stated that Commissioner Wilson of in ternal revenne has issued a circular absolutely prohibiting banka from af fixing stamps to checks unstamped when presented, and requiring them to return the same to tbe drawer. In his cironlar to collectors, the commissioner says: “Yon aro directed to notify the hanks that are gnilty of stamping unstamped checks that, if the practice is not im mediately discontinued they will be reported to the United States district attorney for proseention. Tho instruction contained in Treas ury Decision No. 190011, nnder date of’ June 29, 1898, to the effect that there wa^ no objection to tbe affixing by tbe bank of reqnisite stumps to an nn stumped check presonted for payment is hereby rovoked. This instruction was given to moet an emergency immediately preceding the taking effect of tho stamp act of July 1, 1898, in order to obviate the necessity of returning by the banks thousands bf nnstsmped checks issued by drawers in ignorance of the law. Tho law boing now generally under stood there is no further need of such permission.’’ • This action was taken upon informa tion that certain banks had adopted tho praatice of not requiring stamps as an advertisement to secure patron age as against rival banks. From the above circular it will be scca that drawers of checks must af fix and cancel the requeiteff-cent stamp before said check will be accepted by the kauk upon which it is drawn. Americus bankers aro anxions that the now law bo understood at once that vexations delays may be avoided. Stamp your own checks hereafter ALL WOMEN AGREE. A druggist in Mtcon, Ga., says: “I have sold a large quantity of Mother's Friend, and have nevet known an In stance where it his falleifTo produce the good results claimed for It. All women agree that it makes labor shorter and less painful.” To bo learned is to have a full roser voir; to be wise is to have au unfailing spring.
