When the Agricultural College opens
it3 doors this morning for the fall
session it will be with every dormi
tory. both fir male and female stu

•HEROIC WOMAN SAVES
HER BABY’S LIFE

Eight Honrs.
WEEKLY REVIEW OF ■'
THE lOTTO NMARKET
Sedan, Kans., August 30.—Standing
in five feet of water in the bottom of
a cistern at her home near here, Mrs.
.John Burch', wife of a farmer, , for
•-eight hours held aloft her two-year
old Child, until the arrival home of
her husband today.
The child had fallen Into th<e cistern
and the mother, who saw the accident,
immediately sprang after It, seized the
baby in hef arms, raised It above th
- surface of the water and called for
I dieiip. No one was within hearing of
' the woman's calls and throughout the
greater part of the day, Mrs. Burch
stood, the water reaching almost to h^
neck, and waited until the return of
Aer Husband from his work in the
.taelds. I
'After being taken from the cistern,
Mrs. Burch collapsed and Is danger-
■ ausly ill, but the child suffered no
YhUness. Friends have determined to
apjdy for a Carnegie medal for Mrs.
Burch.
HER CURIOSITY IS SATISFIED
WHEN SHE’S KNOCKED DOWN
JHorse-shcy Hit Woman on Hcud as the
Engine Fussed.
New York, August 30.—Miss Milll-
■cent Sanders is under the care of a
surgeon at her Jersey City home today,
.-as the result of a remarkable blow
from a horse’s shoe. A fire engine ran
down the avenue in front of her house
(Jast night and she rushed to a second
story window to see it go by. As it
passed, one of tee horsed, with a
mighty kick, sent a hind shoe spin
ning through the air. The horseshoe
-whizzed up through the window and
-struck Mias Sanders In the forehead,
leaving a dangerous four-inch wound.
- She will recover.
Haiti Is Badly Needed in Order to Save
the Crop.
New York, August 29.—There were
no Important changes In conditions
effecting the growing crop this week
and the cotton market was dull and
comparatively narrow in consequence
The damage by drouth in Texas was
considered to have been discounted by
the recent advance, and the trade
awaiting more definite advices or a
decided change in conditions before
making further new commitments.
Rain Is badly needed in Central -and
Southwestern Texas to save a fair
proportion of the crop and unless re
lief is soon chained a renewal of bull
ish operations is looked for.
In the states east of the Mississippi
improvement has been general since
the first of the month, and conditions
continue to be very favorable for the
growth of the crop.
The government report to be issued
September 9th is expected to show a
decided betterment in condition fo
practically the whole belt with the ex
ception -of Texas, In the latter state
there has been considerable deterior
ation, hut Its extent can only be guesi-
ed at In the northern half of the
state only a moderate falling off
condition Is indicated, but in the Cen
tral and Southwestern sections there
has been a heavy percentage of de
crease in condition. Estimates of the
average deterioration over the whole
state vary from five to fifteen psr
cent.
On the whole there has been no
material chang ein current unofilcial
estimates of the total yield which run
Ititom 11,000,000 to if,000,000 bales,
based on fairly normal weather for the
balance of the season. Of course, these
estimates can hardly be considered
better than guesses at this stage of the
season.
In view of the waiting attitude ot
the trade, it seems probable the mar
ket will remain dull and narrow for
the coming week as the outcome of
the August deal and uncertainty over
the government report will tend to re
strict activity.
The Americus friends of Col. Obe
•Stevens admit his defeat in the recent
primary for re-election to the place as
railroad commissioner which be has
filled for so many years. Mr. Stevens
wa3 formerly a resident of Dawson
and is well known here and In this
section of the state. - .
"I know one thing," he told a news
paper man, as he came into the com
missioner’s office Thursday to look
over his mail “I kliow I’m defeated.
And this is the first time in my life
I’ve ever had to admit t .a.."
Hi3 manner and his expression, as
he conceded the race to his opponent,
betrayed not the slghtest disappoint
ment or bitterness. He uad lost and
be had the nerve to admit it.
I don’t see any reason for hoping
against hope," he said. "There may be
a few changes in later reports, but
they will be alight and n<»t enough to
alter the fact that I’m beaten.”
Several days before the elefction Co,-
oncl Stevens admitted that J. A. Perry,
of Lawrencevtlle, his opponent, was
running him a tight race. The best of
feeling has prevailed between them
from the start, their only differnere
being In political views, which neither
argued to the other.
Commissioner Stevens told the story
a few days ago that he had met Mr
Perry on the streets of Atlanta.
"I’ve got you beat,” he quoted Mr.
Perry as telling him. ‘ "I get telegrams
gnd letters from friends all over the
state, saving that I will win."
"We can settle that matter right
now,” said Commissioner Stevens.
"Here’s the way to do it. You take the
men who’ve told you that, and i ll
take all the others."
Mr. Stevens has a year and a half
yet in office.

Atlanta, Ga„ August 30.—All polit-
cal eyes are now turned toward At
lanta on account of the coming state
convention. It promises to be a big
occasion and will bring a' large num
ber of people here. Truly. It will be a
red-letter day"for progressive democ
racy.
Of course, those Interested arc get
ting ready and wizen the body Is called
to order Thursday morning at the au
ditorium-armory it is expected that
business will be dispatched very
promptly.
The platform to be adopted by til.)
convention Is the biggest feature, and
in a general way most people kno v
about what It will contain. That is li
say, it will embody the ideas of t*»3
newly elected governor, Hoke Smith,
as contained in his campaign speeches.
He has said that the Atlanta platform
will follow the Macon platform of two
years ago. The public remembers the
leading features of the Macon platform.
Mr. Smith has changed his views very
little, if any, on state questions since
his flr3t race for governor. Some pei-
ple claim that lie is not so radical now,
but ,the truth of the matter, is th.it
since some of his measures have been
enacted into law, the public have got
ten used to them and they ds not
appear as drastic as they imagined.
Besides the adoption of a platforn
the most Imf/rtant action of tbs •'
ventiou will he the nomination of
governor and state house officers. A
new slate executive committee will al
so be sheeted. The permanent ohalr-
man of the convention, according
custom, will be the chairman of the
executive committee.
The committee on resolutions, er
platform and on credentials, are us
ually the most important committees
at a slate convention.
No slate has been made or suggest
ed for the convention, and it is not
known wl.'o will be chose ufor the tem
porary and permanent chairmanships.
Governor Smith plana to accept the
nomination for governor the day the
convention*acts and in doing so will
address the body. ■
