i COTTON CONVENTION
MAY BEHELD HERE
American Cotton Manufacturers’
Association Is Now in Session
and Will Soon Decide on Atlan
ta’s Invitation.
In the October issue of Cotton, the well
known monthly periodical devoted to the
South's greatest industry, will appear the
following vigorous editorial relative to At
lanta's invitation to the American Cotton
Manufacturers’ association, which is now
meeting In Charlotte. N. C.. and which
will shortly decide where to hold the next
annual convention:
"Within a short time the governing
board of the American Cotton Manufac
turers' association will be called together
to select a city in which the 1910 conven
tion of the association will be held.
“The city of Atlanta, through its aet
, ing mayor, the president of the chamber
of commerce and through the governor of
I the state of Georgia, has extended its
heartiest invitation to the association to
' hold it« meeting In that city In 1910.
. "The invitations were In no sense per
functory. They were written with all the
promise of welcome that Atlanta knows
so well how to provide. They also went
with the warm Indorsement of prominent
Atlanta citizens; men who have promised
their aid in every way that will help to
make the visit of the invited guests pleas
ant and enjoyable.
“With all her heart Atlanta has extend
ed her Invitation, and awaits the happy
news of aceptance.
j “To the man who has not visited At
< lanta for some years the city's growth
|will be of special Interest; the popula
tion approximates 175.000 people. The
transportation facilities are not excelled.
The hotels are large, comfortable, and of
sufficient number to give most excellent
accommodation to the largest possible at
tendance at the convention.
“Atlanta’s many clubs have a well
known reputation for hospitality and
their doors will swing wid. to entertain
the association members, their visitors,
ther wives, and friends. Should it be' de
sired to hold an exhibition of textile ma
chinery in connection with the convention.
Atlanta's new auditorium would offer the
largest and most commodious quarters in
the south.
“Atlanta's historic Interest, the comfort
assured, the promises made, and the
heartiness ‘of the invitation, will all, we
hope, be so persuasive that the governing
board can not decline. /

WAYCROSS TROOPS
STOP JAIL ATTACK
WAYCROSS. Ga., Oct. L-The spiriting
away of Dell Jones, a 12-year old negro
boy, charged with attempted criminal
i assault upon a white girl, alone saved
violence at the jail here last night and
, probably prevented a clash between cit
izens and the Waycross guards.
As It was 500 men attacked the jail be
fore the troops arrived.
The Waycross Guards, called out at
the reqeust of the sheriff and on the
order of Governor Brown, charged
through the mob, forming in front of
the jafl and prevented a repetition of the
attack. The crowd, however, became
more threatening and when it seemed
s clash between soldiers and civilians
was imminent, a committee from the
mob was allowed to go through the
jail. The court house was also search
ed. Jones was taken to Savannah to
day secretly.

TERRIBLY STABBED
BY UNKNOWN MAN
While the police were making their
customary rounds on Decatur street late
Thursday night they found W. T. Scott,
a young man 20 years of age, lying in
front of 342 Decatur street with six
knife wounds In his back. He was at
once rushed to the Grady hospital where
it was learned that his injuries were of a
serious nature.
After finding the injured man on the
street, the police started an investigation
to loca e the party who had stabbed him.
It was while working. on the case that
they were called io the hospital where
Scott made a statement to them as to
who had cut him. He stated that the par
ty was unknown to him, but that he could
identify him if he ever saw him again.
He told the officers that his assailant
lived on East Fair street.
Scott is an iron worker and lives at
Ormewood. For some time past he has
been employed at 320 Decatur stret and
it was only a few doors from his own
place of business that he was found in an
unconscious condition.
His wounds were at first considered
of a very serious nature, but after beijig
dressed by the attending physicians it
was announced that they were not as se
rious as at first thought. It is expected
that he will recover within a few days.
BIG MAIL ORDER HOUSE
HELPS SOUTHERN PEOPLE
Such a large proportion of the South’s
population is rural or in towns where the
shopping facilities are limited, that it is
a great convenience for Southerners to
buy many of their goods, particularly
clothing, from big city houses where a
large variety of the latest styles are
kept. .
A big mall order house located In the
South brings about an immense saving in
time and money as it gives quick de
livery, saves freight charges and does
away completely with the retail dealers’
profit.
Mr. Randolph Rose, of Chattanooga
Tenn., appreciating the saving a Southern
Mail Order house would mean to the
Southern people, established an immense
plant to give the Southern people such
service as they have never had before.
He says he undersells competitors on ac
count of cheap freight rates and guaran
tees every article he sells. He has a
complete line of up-to-date clothing at
wonderfully low prices.
Any bank in Chattanooga will Thdorse
the Randolph Rose Company as being
thoroughly reliable and trustworthy In
every respect. Mr. Rose is known per
sonally to thousands of Southern people
who appreciate his enterprise and esteem
him highly for making it so easy for
Southern people to deal with a first-class
Southern Mail Order House.
If you will address your letter as fol

Mr. Randolph Rose’s personal attention:

The Royal Month end the Royal
Disease
Sudden changes of weather are especial
ly trying, and probably to none more so
than to the scrofulous and consumptive.
The progress of scrofula during a normal
October is commonly great. We never
think of scrofula—its bunches, cutaneous
eruptions, and wasting of the bodily sub
stance—without thinking of the great
good many sufferers from it have derived
from Hood's Sarsaparilla, whose radical
and permanent cures of this one disease
are enough to make it the most famous
medicine in the world. There is probably
not a city or town where Hood's Sarsapa
rilla has not proved its merit in more
homes than one, in arresting and com
pletely eradicating scrofula, which is al
most as serious and as much to be feared
as its near relative—consumption.
DIAMONDS ARE FOUND
IN SEVERAL STATES
NEW YORK. Oct. 8.-The official report
of Douglas Sterrett to the United States
geological survey, which has just been
made public, and which declares that
more diamonds were found in this coun
try than ever before, has created much
surprise in Malden Lane. Mr. Sterrett
finds rhat the diamonds produced in Ar
kansas are of as fine quality as those
from the African fields.
Conditions in the Arkansas fields are
more promising than ever before. At one
point 540 diamonds were found of which
505 weighed 217 carats. Three stones which
were cut proved to be worth from S6O to
$175 a carat
The other states in which prospecting
13 now being conducted are California
and Kentucky, and small diamonds are
said to have been found in both.
SIX ARE ARRESTED
FOR BLASTING RICE DAM
JENNINGS. La.. Oct. 9.—Charged with
complicity tn the blowing up of the Mer
mentau dam, protecting the lands of the
hundreds of rice farmers, the United
States commissioner here bound over six
well known citizens yesterday. The ac
cused are:
Alfred Richard, Gabriel Conner, Ernest
Broussard and Luke Conner, of Grand
Chenier. La., and Charles Bonen of Lake
.Arthur, La.
It is claimed that ill feeling between
cattle raisers and rice growers of this
section has resulted in the dynamiting of
the dam.

UNKNOWN SHIP SINKS
OFF CAROLINA COAST
BEAUFORT. N; C.. Ocl. 11.—An unknown
schooner ha* myHtertcualy sunk tn 14 fathoms
of water due west of the Diamond Shoal light
ship. Just when the vessel went flown la not
known, bnt It must have been sometime during
last night, as it was not until this morning
that the lightship crew descried topmasts nt’i' 1 -
ing well out of the water. Nowhere was there
visible any signs of the crew of the foundered
schooner, and not yet has there been any word
to Indicate their fate.
The weather has Bot been such within the last
few davs us to threaten the surety of vessels,
i and the only theory that Is advanced to accoum
tor the wreck is that the schooner probably
sprang a wide leak and went to the bottom be
fore help could reach her aor even signals be
seen.

“Not far beyond the woods lives a

The little dwarf did as he was told,
singing and telling pretty fairy stories to
the sick dwarf and planting whole row«

On the ninth day he met the witch at
the roadside again.
"How are you today?” asked the witch. '
“I have been doing so many things to

Gf.O GALLED
Delavan Smith and Charles R.
Williams, of the Indianapolis
News, Appear for a Continu
ance—No Other Witnesses.
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. Oct. 11.—“ The
Panama libel case” today was called
again before Judge Anderson, of the
United States court of this district, and
Delavan Smith and Charles R. Williams,
proprietors of the Indianapolis News, ap
peared for a continuance of their hearing
to determine whether or not they should
be removed to the District of Columbia
for trial under un indictment of a fed
eral grand jury charging them with hav
ing criminally libeled Theodore Roose
velt, Charles P. Taft, William Nelson
Cromwell, Douglas Robinson, and oiners.
In having published articles alleging cor
ruption in the purchase of the Panama
Canal Zone by this country.
It was understood today that the gov
ernment would not now produce other
witnesses than were examined at the
partial hearing of Messrs. Smith and
Williams’ case last June, but that Stu
art McNamara, special attorney of the
department of justice In charge of »he
proceedings against them and of similar
proceedings in New York against the pub
lishers of the New York World, would
make further argument.
McNAMARA ARRIVES.
Mr. McNamara arrived last night from
Washington. He spent a part of the
last summer in Paris, collecting evidence
as to the transfer of the Panama zone
from the two old French companies to
the United States. It has not been
made known in what form this evidence
will be offered to the court, if it is offeree
at all.
It is the contention of the government
that the transfer of the Panama prop
erty from the two French companies to
the United States was made in a propet
and legitimate way through the banking
house of J. P. Morgan & Co., and
William Nelson Cromwell, as attorney for
the companies, that it was publicly made
known that the stories of “enormous
graft in the deal emanated from persons
seeking to blackmail, and that the pub
lishers of the Indianapolis News reprinted
the rumors maliciously.”
Messrs. Smith and Williams have en
tered denial of Intent to libel in print
ing the current charges and editorially
suggesting investigation, and they resist
removal to the District of Columbia for
trial under the indictment.
CROMWELL’S STATEMENT READ.
Stuart McNamara read portions *or
Nelson Cromwell’s statement to the
United States committee in February,
19u6, on the transter of the canal zone
to the United States.
The report of the Isthmian Canal
commission was then taken up by Mr.
McNamara to show, he said, that the
commission all along had preferred the
Panama route to the Nicaragua route
and that the otticial valuation of the
Panama property was set at $40,000 000.
He said the commission never had ap
proved the Nicaragua route except that
it considered the original price for the '
Panama zone demanded by the French
owners. $109,000,000, exorbitant The !
Panama route was at once recommend- !
ed, he said, when the price dropped to I
$40,000,000.
Articles printed in the Indianapolis
News and parts of the records of the
senate committee constituted the only ev
idence .Introduced today.
In arguing for the removal of the case
to the District of Columbia, Mr. McNam
ara said:
M’NAMARA’S ARGUMENT.
"We might as well burn our law books
and close our courts if it is the law that
the publishers of a newspaper may make
such charges as the defendants made in
this matter and upon the basis they have |
admitted they had.
“Simply because it was the biggest stuff
in the campaign,” Mr. McNamara said,
"this charge was printed and reprinted.
Even after Charles P. Taft denied that
he was a member of any such syndicate,
these defendants continued to include his
name among those who, it alleged, were
concerned in the deal.”
INDIANS MAY KEEP CORN;
“CRAZY SNAKE” HAS GONE
MUSKOGEE, Okla., Oct. H.-For the
first time in many years the full-blood
Creek Indians have failed this year to
set asids a portion of their corn crop to
help pay the expenses of a trip to Wash
ington for their deposed chief. Crazy
Snake-
Crazy Snake is gone. Some say he is
dead. Others aver he is living quietly on
a ranch in Oklahoma. The Creeks, who
heretofore have had to contribute corn
each year to his expense fund, are willing
to drop the question.
"Nd Crazy Snake; no corn,” is the way
they figure It out.
The annual visit of Crazy Snake to
Washington in the interest of his people
was formerly a matter of great concern
among the Creeks.
It that the Creeks will be able
to keep their entire crop. The drouth
of the last summer has seriously curtailed
the corn crop.

night.
Third Step—Exercise fieely in the open

Fifth Step—Wear flannel next your skin
every day of the year, and so dispose
your dress that your limbs shall be kept
warm. Bathe frequently.
Sixth Step—Live in sunshine. Let
your bedroom be one w’hich receives a
flood of light and spend your days either
out in the sunlight or in a room which
is well lighted.
Seventh Step—Cultivate a cheerful tem

Absolutely refuse to worry, and, above
all, don’t be afraid to laugh. Live above.

it get upstairs.

WASHINGTON. Pa., Oct. U.—“ Look,
somebody has knocked papa’s scarecrow

TRIED TO MURDER BABY
IS DIVORCE ALLEGATION
‘
Alleging that her husband attempted to
murder her baby, and later, when the
; baby fell ill, rejoiced in its suffering afid
, was glad when it died, Effie Daniel hag
‘ filed divorce suit against her husband, F.
i E. Daniel, in the superior court.
' Being a petition for divoreq, the action
is brought in the civil court, but it eon
tains nevertheless a plain accusation of
assault with intent to commit murder, ths
wording being as follows:
' "While plaintiff was out at. work, de
'. fendant entered the room where the baby
was and tried to choke it to death, and
i would have accomplished his purpose! ii
i he had not been prevented by people in
the house. A day or two after his ef
' fort to murder the baby, defendant cams
to plaintiff and told her that If she re
vealed anything about his violence towhrt
! the baby, he would kill them both.”
1 Later, when the baby grew ill. It la
stated, the husband came Into the room
cverv day and cursed the mother and
said he hoped the baby would die, whiab
it finally did.
MORSE SAYS HE'S DONE
WITH BANKING BUSINESS
! NEW YORK. Oct. If.—“ Well, whatever
’I •’o, I shall not go into the banking
■ business again." said Charles W. Morse,
' In his home, in Fif’h avenue, w ven asked
about his plans for the future, and wheth-
! er he intended to confine himself to the
steamship business in which he madv hie
first great success.
“There is no money in banking as it la
now conducted,” he added. “True, thert
appears to be a great deal of speculation
In the stock market, and if that is genu
ine a great deal of money must be ,re-
: quired to finance it. ’ Os course, the banks
! are lending whatever money is required,
but so far as I can see they are not get
ting much interest for it. •
"I cannot see anything in the so-called
commercial banking business now. lhe
only wa? to run a tank is the way ths
savings banxs are run. I would not want
to be in tne business under present con
ditions in any other way.”
