WORLEY DIES AT ELBERTON HOME Baker City, Ore., Oct. l.—An attempt was made last night to assassinate for mer Sheriff Harvey H. Brown at his home In this city by blowing him up with dynamite. He Is In a critical con dition at one of the hospitals. One of his legs was blown off, one of his arms badly mutilated and internal injuries were caused by the explosion.

Mrs. Brown Is prostrated by the shock and the physicians fear she will not recover. Mr. Brown while sheriff of Baker county was diligent In en forcing the law against saloon men and gamblers.

The criminal dock- Kederal coi ‘ ' on Oct6b conference between the foreign spinners who will soon visit Atlanta and the officials of the Farmers’ Union may result In the membem of that or ganlzatlon selling their product direct to the manufacturer In Europe. A letter outlining title conference and giving suggestions regarding changes In the present methods of dealing has been written by State Business Agent J. O. Eubanks and Is as follows: "Regarding our chances to sell cotton to the spinners of Europe, wish to sr.v that the spinners are on their way to America now and expect to have a con ference with the union on the 7th of next month. The merchants of Europe are also trying to carry a deal with the Farmers’ Union. They have a repre sentative now In Texas, and on his ar rival there advanced the price of cotton 1 1-4 cents In the Texas market, and he Is to be In Georgia soon, but we have not received notice yet when he will arrive. I think there will be no trouble In our bringing prices In America to the level of England's price*. Today’* prices at Interior points of Europe would give us f. o. b. cars here a frac tion above 18 cents, cotton being 16 cents In the Manchester district. -The freight to the farthest Interior points Is 31.23 from Atlanta Ga Rate* are as follows: 64 cents from Atlanta to New York: compress charges, 10 cents; ocean transportation. 17 cents, and the longest Interior freight at England Is 31 cents; nearer the mills It Is only 10 cents per hundred pounds. At the longest distance the entire freight charges. Including compression, are 16.10. The tare to a 600-pound bale of cotton Is 13.00. This makes the entire expense of delivery. Including tare. 89.10. This amount, deducted from 175. the market value of a 600-pound bale of middling cotton, would leave net to the producer 365.90 f. o. b. cars In Geor gia. This shows that there la a com plete steal of about 110 per bale, be sides what they may rake off by fre quently sampling our cotton."

Sweltering humanity was Jammed Into the tent until there was not stand. Ing room, to say nothing of room to sit In, and still the management took the people's hard cash and they wero crowding In long before the performance began. People who had paid extra prices to secure reserve seats hod no more chance of seeing the mediocre performance than a crippled graeshop. per In a turkey pen. The epace usually used by the char ioteers In the final races was literally packed. The police wero urged on by diamond studded attendants to make the people sit down. They were laugh ed at. The ground, thinly clad with straw, was soggy and damp and held many possibilities of bad colds. And the negroea! A seething mas# of Ethiopians was hemmed In one end of the "hippodrome." A fly cop, goad ed by one of the management, waded into thnt sea of surging blackness, and wielding his club like a cavalryman at a tournament, rut a path through, leaving unprotesting broken and bloody heads In his wake.' He tried to make them su down. Many left before the performance was half begun. The combination of a splendid train ed animal show with a modern circus looks like a good thing on paper. Ha genbeck'* collection of trained animals has been recognized us the king-bee of them nil for years und years, and Wallace had a clean, clear-cut circus. Nevertheless, the combination does not work as It should. Somehow they have not been made to fit in. The trained animals are the real body and backbone of the performance. Tigers and lions and leopards performing dar ing and novel equestrian acts. Jumping through blazing hoops while riding bareback; beam simulating drunken ness, cake-walking and wrestling with men; seals proficient In the art of Jug gling; performing zebras and zebru- las; these and similar feats calculated to make man look to his laurels, make the show really great and worth while. Bv next season the combination should have the rough edges polished and Hagenbeck and Wallace will be pushing somebody for first place In the circus world. In the meanwhile the young folks, and the old folks, who are always young enough to enjoy a circus, owe a debt of gratitude to Hagenbeck and Wallace for Introducing an innovation In the circus world—the first of any importance In many, many years.
