Excessi\ Weight of Sandy

Fair finds gridiron the Riverside
"Huskie sent the Academy of Rich
mond chty crack team down to de
feat in'ie first ga:i e ((f the season
with tip. by the score of 47 to 13.
Sand Beaver made the statement
severaflays ago that his lads were
cominrflown to Augusta and for no
other ason but for the scalps of the
locals. He' got them by excessive
weigh methods. Ask any football
enthuftst who saw the contest yes
terda why is it that locals lost? Of
court Hie answer will lie “excessive
weigl on the other side.’’
Outclassed in Skill.
\\an Riverside had the ball it seem
ed g If it was all off. then and there,
tlieains were slow but sure.
Tb Academy outclassed their op
pofnts in training, speed and game
rif i oqd but for the extra weight, it
wjd have been an easy thing for the
iods.
lie work of the Academy boys In
liiidlinfi the forward pass was about
a,'skillful as has ever been seen here.
1/ fact, both the Academy touch
cfwns were largely the result of suc
<ssful forward passing, and the
fineness of the locals was wonderful.
'liev played a better game in the last
quarter than they did at any previous
ime and showed a never-say-die
spirit that won them frequent ap
plause.
The crowd was encouragingly large
and the predictions that only a small
number would turn out proved in
correct. It is believed that a game
between the Academy and some other
football team will be the feature of
the Georgia-i'arolina Fair hereafter.

EXPRESS OFFICE CLOSED
TO CHOKE OFF “TIGERS”
Unique Plan Adopted at Thrift,
Station on G. & F., to Stop
Whiskey Shipments.
In order that they may rid them
selves of blind tigers, with which they
say they are “infested” several leading
citizens of Thrift, Ga., a little Jenkins
county village, located on the Georgia
and Florida railroad, between Garfield
and Butts stations, have petitioned
the state railroad commission to issue
an order permitting the Southern Ex
press company to close out its tiffice
at that place
These citizens first appealed to the
express company, which advised them
that the office could not he closed ex
cept by authority of the railroad com
mission. They then wrote letters ap
pealing to the commission which they
nflailed to H. M, Smith, superintendent
of the express company, who in turn
sent them to the commission
After considering the petitions the
commission granted the desired au
thority to the express company and the
office at Thrift will be immediately
discontinued.
Among those who filed petitions
were W. H. Aaron, a merchant; Dr. H.
D. Clements, a physician, and Dr. J.
W. Jones, a physician and farmer.
They declared that practically all the
packages which came to the express
office at Thrift contained liquor; that
on Saturday and Saturday night a
lawless element assembled at that
place.

Russian Cossacks Now Laying Waste Last Prussia
■ " ’ ■‘-'-.v O. .Ats.y.CCUv'.
«MnwHMKhMi- :
THE DREAD CAVALRY.
This is the first photograph of the Russian Cossacks, the dread cavalry of the czar, who are now spreading
ruin through East Prussia. They are perhaps ihe most famous cavalry men of the world. They are said to
be even better riders than American cowboys. The uhlans and hussars of the German army do not rank with
them. The photograph show a reconnoitering party within East Prussia pushing on toward Koenigßlnirg,
which is now said to be surrounded by vast numbers of Russian troops. The fear of the Cossacks has seized
Berlin since the advance of the Russians became dangerous, for their reputation leads the Germans to believe
they will lay waste the city if they enter it.

WJII ‘AUGUSTA MADE’
[■IIS FOR THE
tone NEGRO FW
White Exhibitors Earnestly
Requested By Negro Fair As
sociation to Let “Made in
Augusta” Exhibits Remain.
The- following has been received
from the Negro Fair Association:
To the White Exhibitors:
After a visit to the Georgla-Carollna
Fair on Wednesday afternoon, we have
reached the deliberate conclusion that
the display of “Made in Augusta”
goods in the main building is the big
gest advertisement that Augusta, has
ever received. We did not ourselves
realize until we saw it with our own
eyes Just what is being done in our
own town along manufacturing lines.
Words would fail to describe the fav
orable impression made upon us.
We believe that the colored people
themselves should be given an oppor
tunity to sec the things which only a
few of us have seen this week; and we
are therefore sending this open letttr
to the white exhibitors inviting them
and earnestly requesting them plesse
to allow their exhibits to remain In
taci until the negro fair comes off
next week. They wil [thereby give
us an opportunity to assist in the great
and good work of educating our peo
ple up to the importance of patronizing
“home Industries.” The slogan of tKe
future for this good town should he,
“Made In Augusta; bought in Augusts.;
sold in Augusta.” We hope our white
friends will let their exhibits remain
for our show next week.
Respectfully,
