WILL OPEN IN fl FEW DAYS. Watch this space. Our home made iad is tender and will not pull w teeth out. 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 Next day, however, this action was rescinded, and the matter of location left open for a year, to be Anally de cided this year at Augusta.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. Late Crisis Apparently Fully Dissipated. NUMBER 26. AN EXCEPTIONAL^ OFFER OF MEN’S FALL SACK SUITS at $20 and $25. NEW YORK, October 30.—(Special) —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 FINE IMPRESSION Prof. Stewafl Compliments Work Done. . 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 Exceptional because the suits;- we offer at this price are not: ordinary $20 values-exception- al because in quality of materi al, wormanship and finish these suits are only comparable with the high-class custom tailors 7 $35 and $40 productions.

It is the first day of the partridge shoot ing season and every sportsman who can possibly get away will hie him self in quest of this royal game. It has been a fine year for partridges and right around Americus a number of covies have been “located" al ready.

"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.
