361 THIRD ST., MACON, GA,
IN MOULTRIE AND
COLQUITT COUNTY
MOULTRIE. Ga„ Nov. 27.—It now
seems assured that Moultrie is to have
a Young Men’s Christian Association.
All the churches of the city have
Joined in a movement to erect a very
handsome Y. M. C. A. building. A
committee of nine, including some of
the moat enterprising and well-to-do
citizens of Moultrie, has the work in
charge and is now soliciting subscrip
tions. So far they have met with very
liberal success and there now seems no
doubt pf the sufficient amount being
obtained.
Moultrie’s Banks.
Reports made this week by the two
Moultrie banka indicate that Moultrie
and Colquitt county are more prosper
ous than at any time In their history.
The two banka have on deposit more
than *400,000. This is an increase of
more than 25 per cent. In the past
twelve months. The Increase Is due
in a large measure to the Improved
condition of the farmers, many of them
having cleared good money on their
cotton crops this year. A good crop
of cotton has been mnde in this coun
ty and ha« brought a good price. Cot
ton receipts in Moultrie have been
double what they were last year.
City Court.
The November term of the city
court has been In session here this
week. Two very Impmtnnt damage
suits have been tried. One of these
was a suit brought by R. H. Fearn
against the Georgia Northern railroad
for $25,060 alleged damages to his farm
through the failure of the road to put
in a stock gap. A mistrial was de
clared in the case and It la somewhat
remarkable that this Is the second mis
trial In the same case. The suit has
been very aggressively fought and haa
acquired no little notoriety In the
county. Another suit was that of J.
A. Owens against the Atlantic and
Hawkinsville.

There Is continued activity In the

Improvements, but the unimproved

vance of the bulk of the Georgia crop.
He said that this year the crop south

and between there and Macon only SI
was paid for them. Between Macon

above Atlanta pnly 00 cents. He was
well pleased with the lands he saw,
and while no trade has yet been closed,
he expressed his Inention of buying
here and setting out a large orchard
this winter.

Atlantic and Birmingham Railway-
Bonds Did Not Carry,
TIFTON. Go., Nov. 27.—Sheriff D.
A. Mclnnls of Irwin county and spe
cial officer Bryant of the Atlantic and
Birmingham railroad were in Tifton
Thursday. Their visit was In the case
of an attempted wrecking of a passen-
genr train on that road a few days
previous. Two white men were seen
walking along the Atlantic and Bir
mingham tracks between Irwinvtlie
and Mystic last 3unday evening and
later the section foreman discovered
several pieces of iron laid across the
tracks apparently for the purpose of
wrecking the passenger train which
was due In a short time.
From the evidence obtained so far
the two white men were all the ones
on that particular part of the
road all Gunday afternoon, and one of
them claims that they did not meet any

they met a couple of negroes.

made and tt is thought that the guilty
parties will be speedily brought to Jus
tice.
Bonds Failed to Carry.
Tifton is to have * no new school

purpose of getting an authorized issue
of bonds for that purpose both meas
ures fell short of the required two-
thirds of the registered votes.
no time did the water. works
stand a showing to win and since It
was coupled on to the school issue it
was only too apparent that both issues
would be a dead letter.
There was a disposition In some
quarters to kill both If the one most de
sired could not he secured and the re
sult was successful.
For the election there were 156 reg
istered voters, making It necessary for
either bond Issue to secure 104 votes to
carry. There were a total of 128 votes
polled, five of which were thrown out
because not being correctly marked.
The school bonds received 86 votes
with 19 against. Water works 62 were
cast for nnd 51 against.
School bonds fell short 19 of the

Are Your Hair* Dropping One by One?
If your scalp Itches you are doubt

druff germ Is digging up your scalp
In little flnkes, called dandruff, and
sapping the life of the hsir bulb. No
hair preparation that Is a mere hair
stimulant nnd tonic will cure dandruff,
because It won't kill the germ that
causes the trouble. Newbro's Herpl-
clde is the Invest scientific discovery;
nnd it will kill the dandruff germ.

the effect: kill the gemj and you have
no more dandruff, falling hair or bald
