An important subject to-be discuss
ed by the U. D. C. Convention today,
and one in which people of Americus
are greatly interested, is that of the
location of the monument to be erect
ed by the National U. D. C., to Cap
tain Henry Wirz.
Will Americus or Andersonvllie be
selected as the site of the shaft to
this valiant Southerner?
The decision is of interest, not
only in Americus but to the country
at large, and hope Is expressed that
the WIrz monument, for many reas
ons, will be erected here.
When the Georgia U. D. C. Con
vention assembled In Americus one
year ago this 'important subject was
brought forward, and after lengthy
and animated discussion the commit
tee reported in favor of Americus as
the site for the^Shaft.
Next day, however, this action was
rescinded, and the matter of location
left open for a year, to be Anally de
cided this year at Augusta.
Two members of the committee of
three on location favor Americus as
the site, while the third is strenuous
ly in favor of Andersonvllie, the
scene of Captain WIrz’ military oper
ations as commandant of the great
Federal prison located there.
She, with others, believe that this
monument, an enduring vindication
of the vile slanders heaped upon him
by the North, should be erected upon
the held of his labors.
Others, and perhaps a vast major
ity, hold to the opinion that the Wirz
monument, located at Andersonvllie,
near the large number of State monu
ments erected by Northern states to
their dead, would but engender the
greatest bitterness. 1
Andersonvllie 1b visited daily by
delegations of Northerners, and while
this monument to Captain Wirz would
only represent the truth of history It
Is believed that Its presence there
would but open afresh the wopnds
that have been healed.
The monument, If erected In Am
ericus, where Captain Wirz was so
well known, would serve the ends
desired, and it Is hoped the TJ. D. C.
will take this view of the case.

—To all appearances the Ananclal
crisis had been entirely dissipated.
Call money, for which the rate this
morning was 50 per cent, dropped to
48 and then abruptly broke to 10
per cent.
At the close of the stock market the
rate was 8 per cent.
The atmosphere has cleared, and it
is freely predicted that much good
will result from the reecnt troubles.
Certain speculative interests have
been squeezed oat and in future it is
believed that such dealings will be
under the ban.
HIGH SGHOOL MADE

HUNTERS ARE READYTO
“The High School of Americus
ranks well among the accredited High
Schools of the State. It is a school
the people of Americus can feel a
pardonable pride in."
This was the statement made by
Prof. Joseph S. Stewart, of the Uni
versity of Georgia yesterday after
noon, after he had made an impression
of the class work of the four grades
ot the High School.
Prof. Stewart holds the ehalr of
Pedagogy at the State University.
Every year he Inspects the accredited
secondary schools, whose graduates
aril received Into the University, on
certificate, without examination. The
Americus High School is in this, class,
and it was for the purpose of Inspect
ing the work done here that Prof.
Stewjirt paid his v|slt of yesterday.
Todajt he is inspecting the Dawson
school.
No preliminary notice was given
of his coming. Walking in on Supt.
Miller, Prof. Stewart simply announc
ed that he bad some to Inspect the
school. For two or three hours he
remained in the claBB rooms, hear-
lngthe children recite in Latin and
other studies, occasionally asking

is the first day of the partridge shoot

has been a fine year for partridges
and right around Americus a number

the early morning trains to the more
distant fields in Leo county, while
in a hundred fields in Sumter the
rattle of small arms will make life
strenuous for the White family.

"I have nowhere found better de
portment than I found in the Amerl-
cus school,” said Prof. Stewart “It
reflects the greatest credit on the
principal and his assistants. The boys
and girls seemed very attentive, eager
to learn, and displayed an interest in
the class work that told plainly that
their sympathies had been awakened
and that they were working in entire
harmony with their teachers. Work
ing under difficulties, as the Americus
High School undoubtedly does. It holds
up a high standard and Is becoming
more efllclent yearly.'
Prof. Stewart stated that the Am
ericus school is what is termed a sen
ior high school—that is, one having
a full acceptable four years course.
Some of the high schools, even in
much larger cities than this, have
but a three years course.
Referring to the good work done in
the accredited secondary schools,
Prof. Stewart stated that ot 99 boys
admitted to the University last year
from such schools but eight per cent,
fell in their work below medium,
while ot those entering on examina
tion, not from accredited schools, 38
per cent fell below medium. This,
be thought, effectually demonstrated
that the accredited schools are doing
excellent work, and that the system
of reecivlng their graduates without
examination is the proper one to pur
sue.
