An even dozen cit'zens were thus touched and the total flues assessed amounted to $107.50. And there are yet others to face the music. The wholesale docketing of cases by the spotters hired by the city an. thorities for the purpose, has creat ed a sensation in auto circles, and every car owner In Americus was present to watch the result of the trial. Testimony aganst the defendants was given by three sleuths, J. A. Di vis, George Horne and one Lee. the witnesses stating that they had used stop watches in collecting evidence against the defendants. Mayor Felder presided and Impos ed the Ones, the several cases loom ing as follows t Dr. S. H. McKee, $10, Dr. W. S. Prather $10, Judge Charles R. Crisp $10, Mr. George Riley $10, Mr. Lee Hansford $10, Mr. J D. Hooks $10, Dr. Frank P. Cato $10, Mr. John L. Wooten $10, Mr. Inman Griffin $5, Stewart Prather $2.50. Two colored drivers for car owners, $10 each. The Ones Imposed amounted to $107.50 as stated. All were fed oat of the same spoon, and not one eg. caped. Several of tho defendants were rep resented by attorneys and each enter ed a plea of not guilty. Several of the car owners sought to show by the evidence of witnessing that their small cars could not ba driven abovo eighteen or twenty mllo3 per hour, even on a test, but it did not go against the evidence, If the amateur P'nkertons, who held the watches on them. I These sleuths swore directly regard ing tho evidence they had accumu lated against the alleged peeders. Posted on a stretch of good street (rather difficult to find sometimes) they would spot a speeder speeding spedltlously, and time him between telephone poles, afterwards “stepping ’ tho distance by way of getting tho measurement. Sherlock Holmes No. 1 swore that Inman Griffin, on Lee street, covered 108 yards in eleven seconds; Dr. W. S. Prather, on down hill grade, reel ed off 165 yards In seventeen sec onds; Mr. J. D. Hooks 114 yards !:i eleven seconds, while “Maude" Hans ford cleaned up 200 yards In twen ty-one seconds. The sleuths gave this testimony, and the audience marveled, especially at Maude's marathon movement When the cases were concluded the dozen defendants gave notice of an appeal of their cases to the city council, where they w'll be fully aired again. This will be done at the meeting on Wednesday, June 8th. None of the fines were paid yesterday. There are yet a dozes r* two cases of like nature to be tried, as all could not be finish at one sitting of the court.

Total Increased percentage is 3.3, or 1,082,000 acres more than last year and the average planting of the crop Is 12 days later than last year. The high prices that have prevail ed for the past year have resulted in a general Increase In the acreage, par ticularly in Texas and Oklahoma.
