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. The Rjotsieps of" School Days mean a pair of ordinary shoes for each girl about once every two months.

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. ■ the creditors and next of kin of Mrs. law> T trm8 0 f sale cash.
