Buudrlck, the celebrated murderer who on November 9tb last escaped from the Americas jail and, after dodging the ofllcers for nearly six months finally surrendered two weeks ago in a California town, Is even now on i-is way to:Georgia. The guards, with their prisoner, will get hack next Tuesday. Bundrlck was fully Identified by the Crisp county ofllcers and made,no-klck upon coming back to the scene of his brutal crime, prebapsto pay tbe penal* tv therefor. A telegram to the Cordole Post an nounced that the departure of the officer* with their prisoner had been delayed lour days by a snow storm, which probably blocked the railroads in that section. Of Bundrick's return to Cordele the Post has the following: “The jail has been recently cleaned out, and la now In splendid sanitary conditio!. No prisoners have been confined ttfere lor some time. “One of the Diebold steel cells will be used. Tbe autborites have firmly de cided not to again trust Bundrlck out ofthecountr. He will be lodged in the new county Jail as soon as It is ready to receive him. “It Is said by tboae who know the- man that he will scarcely be recogniz ed when be reaches here. “That he is no longer tbe stout and robust man that he once was, but that hit health has failed, and that he now is nothing more than a skeleton. “No announcement has been made as to what steps will ,bo taken when Bun drlck arrives. It Is thought, however, that be will not be detained long In prison, inasmuch as he has expressed himself willing and anxious to pay the penalty of his crime as quickly as pos sible. ‘It Is probable that a special sesslo of court will be convened at once, and that he will be resentenced and banged at an early date," Don’t Fair to See Our Superb Tailor^Spring Suits For Men Of “ \‘ If you have delayed the buy ing of Spring Clothes and want to get the very best value for your money, don’t let another day slip by without coming here to see our large collection of the«ioted "EFF-* FF/’ Fashionable Clothes FUNERAL OF GEO.

Americus Is going to have a corner stone laying and opening day celebra tion, for one and the same building, at one and the same time. If that is not unique aud ont of the ordinary, what 1st . Corner atone laying! are frequent. So are opening day exercises. But whoever beard of tbe corner stone being laid at the same timo the opening day celebration la on. That is what It la now' proposed to do ibr tbe Third District Agricultural College. v, Messrs. Childers and Ray, of tbe committee having the matter of a prop' er celebration In charge, visited tbe college building yesterday and had a talk with the contractor. They were advised that It would be possible to arrange for the cornerstone to be omitted trom the building until tbe opening day lu August, when the college building will be completed and ready for tho inspection of tbe Third Georgia district. This was highly satisfactory. The committeemen then bit on the happy idea of uniting tbe comer stone laying ceremonies with tbe opening day c^le bration already decided on. So It la probable that thecorner atone of tbe agricultural college will not be laid until itho building Is completed, and that a doable program will be ar ranged for the occasion. It is proposed to make it a memor able event, one worthy of tbe great ed ucational stride the district It taking In the introduction of tbe scientific study of agriculture. People from all over the Third will bo here, and the college wlU begin Its career under tho most gratifying aus pices.
