WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 6.—The federal department of agriculture has discovered that in many sections of the south the cotton boll weevil is being con fused with the cotton boll worm. It is regarded as important to to the cotton planters that his erroneous impression should be dissipated, if the farmers are to combat intelligently the ravages of the pests. “The boll worm is the larva of a moth, and is only distantly related to the wee vil,” tjhe department explains in a bulle tin. “The weevil belongs to the large natural group of beetles. The worm, when hatched, is very tiny, but grows rapidly, becoming finally a little more than an inch long, and greenish op brown ish in color. The weevil grub is white and found only within the cotton square or boll. It never exceeds one-half inch in length.” The department advises that a farmer can insure a future cotton crop against injury from the boll worm with compar atively little trouble and expense, if he wili pick his cotton as quickly as possible and immediately thereafter ploy under and harrow the fields. Walks From Si. Louis To Dalton, Ga., to Find “Inheritance” a Bubble Convicts Planning to Escape From Prison Get Too Drunk to Go DALTON, Ga,, Nov. 6.—Disappointed at the smallness or the estate he round here, after having walked from St. Louis, Mo., to prove his and his broth er’s right to the property, A. Wandrel, of St. Louis, has advertised for sale the farm left here by his uncle, J. J. Stand, who disappeared about thirteen years ago. Mr. Wandrei left St. Louis under the impression that the estate consisted of over 200 acres of land and a bank ac count. When he arrived he found that the farm consisted of only twenty five acres, and there was no bank account. On his return to St. Louis he decided to advertise the property for sale.

J., Nov. 6.r-Two drunken prisoners with a riot gun and 1,00 rounds of ammunition in the Mor ris county jail terrorized other inmates for several hours early today, riddled the keeper’s office with bullets and failed in their plot for a wholesale jail delivery only because they drank too much liquor after escaping from their cells.

H., Nov. 6.—The good faith of legal representatives of New •York in seeking the extradition of Har- ry K. Thaw is attacked in a communi cation sent to Governor Felker today by Judge William M. Chase, of Thaw’s counseli. Judge Cnase Wrote: “The introduction of the indictment obtained in New York county is addi tional evidence of the subterfuge which j the attorney representing the state of! New York is employing to obtain the aid of requisition proceedings for the! return of an insane man to Matteaw&u. not for the purpose of protecting him- j self and the public against his insane 1 acts, but for the purpose of punish-; ment; and an insane man who is a res ident of Pennsylvania and for whose j conduct the state of New York is re sponsible only while fie is actually within that state.” It became known today that William Travers Jerome will file no papers in support of the extradition petitloh. Governor Felker’s decision is expected the last of this week.

JOHNS, Newfoundland, Nov. 6.— The Furness line freighter Manchester Commerce, dragged her way into this harbor today, her bow crumpled, and her pumps racing madly to keep out water pouring in through the shattered hull. The steamship which carries no wire less, crashed head-on into a giant ..ice berg at 2 o’clock Sunday morning, j while about 100 miles east of Belle Isle. The berg loomed out of the black ness so suddenly there was no time to change the ship’s course and it swept at full speed into the ice. The steel prow of the liner was crumpled out like a piece of tin as far aft as the collision bulkhead. Captain Couch headed his ship for St. Johns. A storm swept the sea and j the vessel had a hard time making port. Torrents of water poured into the hold through the. shattered bow. Tnt pumps, constantly in operation, scarce ly could old their own. The snip reached here in sinking condition. It carried 6,000 tons of general cargo and a crew of forty officers and men. LONGEST CASE RECORDED IN WHITFIELD CLOSES (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) DALTON, Ga., Nov. 6.—With the pay ment of $400 by the North Georgia Milling company to the Henderson Elevator com pany, ard the final payment of the court costs oy the former concern, the longest drawn out case on record in superior court here has at last been brought to a close, after ten years of continuous liti gation. The case, in which about $1,200 was in volved, was first tried in superior court here in October, 1909. Dissatisfied with the verdict, the case was carried to su preme court where it was reversed. Five times it was tried in superior court, a new trial being granted by the court on one occasion. Three times it was sent to the supreme e«urt. and the wonderful scope of the supreme court opinions, in which point after point of law was inter preted, makes the case of probably creat or importance than any other reviewed by the court, for reference. It was final ly referred to an auditor, but exception was filed to the report, and when it was finally tried in superior court here, Judge Fite directed a verdict which proved sat isfactory to both sides, and the case was ended after a perior of ten years. The case had its beginning when the el evator company shipped over $20,000 wortn of grain to the local milling company, a big percentage of the shipment being re jected. The elevator company then sold the rejected grain and sued the mills for $1,200, the difference between what the grain brought and what the mills had contracted to pay. The mills rejected the grain on the ground that it was defec tive. i Many Girls Enlist to Aid Mrs. Belmont in War on Useless Giving (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-—The S. P. U. G., which may be recognized as the So ciety for the Prevention of Uselbss Giv* ing. met with such success in its cam paign last Christmas that it is on the warpath early again this year against the useless Christmas present. The “S. P. U. G.” are mainly department store girls, who, under the leadership of Mrs. O. II. P. Belmont, Miss Anne Morgan and others, found their year’s savings annually depleted by the obligation to j contribute toward presents for those I “higher up.” The idea of freeing them- | selves from this Christmas “graft” and all forms of useless giving spread like wildfire and others joined the crusade. The leaders liken the movement to that of the “safe and sane Fourth” idea. The- campaign this year is to be begun with a great rally November 11. ARIZONA BANK FAILS TO OPEN FOR BUSINESS » DOUGLAS.

GHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Nov. 6.—Ev ery indication points to the immediate inauguration of work by the govern ment engineers upon the proposed dams across the Tennessee river at Caney creek and Belle Fonte island.
