SHEPARD & GLUCK~COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, April 28.—The better tone than expected of the weekly crop re ports from the government made a soft market in cotton today.

Here’s Billy Sunday’s Cabinet All Ready For Public Approval KNOXVILLE, TENN., April 28. To keep the “backbiting’, grasping, thieving, degenerate bunch of dirty politicians who are trying,to double cros the eighteenth amendment from the presidential chair,” Billy Sunday, who addressed a large au dience here, declared he is ready to run on a dry platform with William Jennings Bryan. Moreover, here is his cabinet, handpicked and ready for the ap proval of the public according to his statement apart from the reference in his sermon here: Secretary of; State. Henry Cabot Lodge or “Ma” Sunday. “I don’t know which, both of ’em are fine in any job.” Secretary of War, Leonard Wood. “He had a raw deal and he’s a great soldier.” Attorney General, .Judge K. M. Landis. “He’d smash the daylight out of the robbers.” Secretary of the Interior, Henry Allen. “He's another good one, be lieve me.” ? Postmaster General. Herbert Hoover. “Oh, boy, there's a man for you!” Secretary of Agriculture. Prof. Charles Curtis. “1 used to go to school to him when he was dean of the agriculture college at Ames.” Secretary of Labor, Police Coinmis-* sioner Curtis, of Boston. “One of the ablest men in the country.” “I don’t know about anybody else, except that Pershing will toe chief of staff. “And believe me. that’s the finest cabinet in the wofld.” The noted evangelist declared that “If the democrats nominate a wet candidate and put a wet plank in their platform, the church people will defeat the nominee. If the Ke-' publicans stand for the booze gang and on a wet platform, they will be whipped world without end. If both Democrats and Republicans put out wet tickets on wet platforms. Bill Bryan and I will run on the prohibi tion ticket. Bill is a Democrat and I. am a Republican. He would look good at the White House, and I think I should like to try my -hand at hold ing down the chair in the senate.” Says Best Confessed To Murder of Girl PONTIAC, Mich..

King. of Bainbridge, and R. Steele, of Chicago, had a very nar row escape Tuesday when they were | caught in the path of the cyclone which swept across the northern part of Decatur county about 7 o'clock. They were in a Ford en route to Moultrie and were about nine miles out of Bainbridge when Mr. King’s atten" was attracted to his left by the noise of falling trees and de bris which he saw was approaching him. With rare presence of mined, he shut off his motor and he and Mr. Steele jumped from the car and threw themselves in a ditch along ide the road just in time. The torm picked up the Ford and carried I it a shoi’t ways, leaving it. turned up side down and headed in the opposite direction. The car was practically demolished. One of the suitcases carried by the men was found up the road about one hundred yards away. At this point the path of the cy clone was <ibout three-eighths of a mile in width and the destruction ot all timber and. fences in the path was complete. Fortunately, no homes were harmed in this section, although a few miles below, two negro houses were totally wiped out, injuring nine occupants, one of whom is expected to ie. The condition of these home less negroes was pitiful, but they "Mill, no doubt be looked after by their neighbors. Aside from this and the great loss in timber, fences n n d cribs which "fell before the wind, no reports of other damage has been re ceived to date. z Workers Get $125 a Week I SWANSEA.
