TOLD IN FEW LINES.

FOR CONVENIENCE OF READERS.
Some of the Stories Heard Yesterday
and Briefly Retold.—What Was
Said and Done in the Town in a
Day.
A good rain right now would be
worth many thousand dollars to the
farmers of Sumter. Their cotton fields
are being parched by the very intense
heat.
Let all the veterans who can do so
attend the meeting at city hall this
morning and aid in the undertaking to
have an old soldiers reunion here in
September.
Will Dudley has leased the store in
the Windsor Hotel block, next to the
telephone exchange, and will remove
his bicycle business there when the
store is fitted up again.
The number of hay wagons seen daily
upon Americus’ streets would indicate
that the farmers of Sumter were not
neglecting that important crop, even
for king cotton at nine cents.
The Huntington barbecue next Fri
day is pleasantly anticipated by hun
dreds here who are going down to that
feast royal. Twenty fine porkers haye
already been secured for the cue.
The street sprinkler ploughed its way
through the dusty thoroughfares yes
terday, but the intense heat evaporated
the liquid drops as fast as they fell and
the people steamed and steamed and
steamed.
A Sumter county lady sent in yester
day a coop of sixty-five fine chickens
of the yellow propeller variety, and
Buchanan Bros, paid her $10.25 for the
lot. It pays to raise chickens for
this market.
A Thousand Tongues.
Could not express the rapture of An
nie E. Springer, of 1125 Howard street,
Philadelphia, Pa., when she found that
Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consump
tion had completely cured her of a
hacking cough that for many years had
made her life a burden. All other rem
edies and doctors could give her no help,
but she says of this Royal Cure—‘‘it
soon removed the pain in my chest and
I can now sle» p soundly, something I
can scarcely remember doing before.”
I feel like sounding its praises through
out the Universe.” Ho will every one
who tries Dr. King’s New Discovery for
any trouble of Throat, Chest or Lungs.

PURCHASING GOODS IN PELHAM.
Americus Firm Buying From Our
Thrifty Neighbor.
Piled up in front of a local drygoods
store yesterday were cases of domestics
manufactured by the splendid one
hundred thousand dollar mill located
in the little town of Pelham, Ga., about
one-fifth the size of Americus. Around
the corner a grocer was opening up
oases of canned goods shipped here
from the two great canning establish
ments at Fort Valley. Thus Pelham
clothes us and Fort Valley feeds us.
The moral is self evident.
Better have a good medicine and not
use it than to need it and not haye it.
See? Then just before you get hurt,
buy a bottle of Dr. Tichenor’s Anti
septic. It is a record breaker for
Wounds, Burns, Bruises, Scalds,
etc., for man and beast. 50c. a bottle

No Necessity for Making a Loan This
Year.

the expenses of the state, but this year
no loan will have to be asked.
NEARLY 500 NAMES
LEFT OFF LISTS,
Jury Commissioners Complete a Re
vision of Box.
HUNDREDS OF NAMES DROPPED
Because Taxpayers Failed to Make
Returns and Therefore Not Quali
fied.—Doctors Excused and Preach
ers Taken
The jury box of Sumter county con
tains about 650 names as the result of
the revision completed yesterday, and -
that number is between 400 and 500
short of the total contained in the box
during the past two years and from
which grand and travers jurors have
been drawn heretofore.
The total is about 650 against 1,115
names in the box heretofore.
The commissioners, Messrs. J. It.
Battle, C. G. Sheppard, J. J. Hanes
ley, G. W. Glover and J. F. Bolton,
completed their work at noon yester
day, drew juries for October court
and adjourned.
In speaking of the great disparity in
the number of old and new names in
the jury box, one of the commissioners
said yesterday that the names just
didn’t appear on the tax books, and as
the new list was made up entirely from
that record there was no other alterna
tive than to leave oil some of the best
citizens of the county.
The fault, therefore, is their own,
aud not that of the commissioners.
Hundreds of tax payers failed or re
fused to make returns of their property
this year, and the names of all of these
are left out of the jury box.
Then there are citizens who never
serve on a jury, though their names
have been in the box for years. They
usually come forward with a legitimate
excuse and are let oil' For this reason
the jury commissioners decided to let
them off permanently and their names
were, therefore, omitted in the recent
revision.
There was good reason for this, the
commissioner thought, as it tended to
keep down the professional and omni
present talesman, who is always on
hand to be “caught on the jury” if an
occasion was presented.
All the doctors were left off, as they
rarely serve on a jury, but the name of
every preacher went into the box.
Many prominent business men here
were left out because they had not
made returns of properly, while good
men in the country districts went off
the lists for the same reason.
The names of 508 travers and 142
grand jurors alone went into the jury
box this week, the smallest number in
years.
Your druggist knows a good thing
when he sees it. He always keeps Dr.
Tichenor’s Antiseptic for sale because
it is a good thing. He likes to sell it
because it always gives perfect satis
faction.
REPORT NOT VERY FAVORABLE.
Average Condition of Cotton Given
by States.
The Government report of the con
dition of the cotton crop, issued yes
terday, is very near the same as at this
date in July. The average condition
of the crop on August Ist., was 76, as
compared with 75 8 on July Ist., 84 for
August Ist. 1899, and 91-2 for same date
in 1898, The mean average for August
for past ten years is 85-3. The impairs
ment of conditions this year is due
mainly to drought and lack of culti
vation, while in some sections contin
uous rain has wrought damage to the
crop, The average by states is: Vir
ginia 72; North Carolina 80; South
Carolina 84; Georgia 77; Florida 74;
Alabama 67; Mississippi 60; Louisiana
77; Texas 83; Indian Territory 91. The
area planted in cotton and abandoned
is something less than generally
reported.
