Holiness Meet To Be Held at Waycross The eighth annual Holiness camp meeting will start at Waycross August 14, and last ten clays. - It will be held at the William Parker Memorial Camp, under the auspices of the Waycross Holiness (’amp Meeting Association, of which W. L. Hinson is president and Mrs. John W. Adams secretary. A feature of the meeting will be the “Former Texas Cowboys.’’ the Roberts Brothers, of Pilot Point, Tex. Declaring that Governor Please, of South Carolina, was acting under no legal right whatever in demanding his extradition from Georgia. P. B. Zaeh- ry, of Harlem, charged with kidnap ing his own child in Columbia, S. C., called upon Governor Slaton Thurs day morning to arrange for the hear ing which will be held Monday morn ing. Governor Slaton changed the time of the hearing from Friday un til Monday upon the request of Mr. Zach ry. Mr. Zachry declared he would fight the requisition to the last ditch. He will be represented at the hearing by Hamilton Phinizy and C. Henry Cohen, of Augusta, and John T. West, of Thomson. The requisition papers of Governor Blease probably will be the only testimony offered by the plaintiffs. Mr. Zachry told a graphic story of the case Thursday morning. He had been awarded the two children four times, he declared, when Mrs. Zachry left with them on the very day that the Superior Court judge in Augusta upheld the decision of the ordinary favorable to Zachry. Sued In South Carolina. It was then, he declared further, that he took his automobile and has tened to South Carolina, wnere he entered suit again for the children in the Columbia court. ‘‘I did not want to make out requi sition papers for Mrs. Zachry.’’ de clared Mr. Zachry, “because I do not believe in fighting a woman in that way. That is the reason I instituted court proceedings in South Carolina. “When I entered the courtroom there was my little daughter Frances, the older of the two. and the first thing she said was ‘Hello, papa, are you going to take me?’ She always was fond of me and she was the one I wanted. However, according to a previous agreement with Mrs. Zachry, I allowed even this one to visit her mother once a month.” Friends Rally to Aid Him. Following the decision of Judge Gary awarding the children to him as claimed, Mr. Zachry declared he took the older, just tliree years of age, in his automobile and started for Geor gia. Several times on the way, he says, he was warned that he was be ing followed, and at a bride near the Georgia line he was fully prepared for interference by the South Carolina authorities acting under orders ol Governor Blease. “They would not have stopped me, though,’’ declared Mr. Zachry, “for I was bound for Georgia with my little girl, and I meant to get there at all odds.” Mr. Zachry Is a prominent attorney in Augusta and resides in Harlem, a suburb. Less than a w r eek ago. when Governor Blease demanded the ex tradition of Zachry, a host of friends of the latter held a mass meeting in Augusta and sent a telegram to Gov ernor Blease requesting a hearing be fore any decision was made.

COTTON EASIER OH Both Elements Hesitate Pending Texas Weather Outlook—Sen timent Continues Bearish. NEW YORK, Aug. 7.—Continued dry weather over Texas and Oklahoma led to further buying at the opening of the ootton market to-day and first prices were 1 to 5 points higher than the clos ing quotations of Wednesday. August made the best gain. There was a great deal of warehouse buying. After the all further bullish advices relative to the weather were received and prices advanced still further. There was na rain shown on the map vvhioh was an incentive for buying, hut there is disturbance in the Gulf, which local weather experts claim may bring rain in the next two days over the west ern belt This is causing hesitancy on the part of bulls 10 buy aggressively. Every one seemed to await the noon de tailed weather report to see how high the temperatures may run and whether or not the local experts are correct in heir predictions. '1 he volume of trad ing was small and the range was veiy narrow throughout the early session. The detailed weather record showed temperatures ranging from 100 to 107 degrees and no rain. The tem peratures were not so high in the east ern belt and very little rain was shown. These high temperatures are causing uneasiness among the bear forces and some short covering was in evidence about noon. On the other hand, the hull element hesitated when the ring. Wall street and uptown crowd sod the market off a few points. Should rain materialize in the Western belt between pow and Sunday undoubtedly it will pro mote sufficient selling to send the mar ket hack into last week’s low level. At the close the market was steady with prices at a net advance of 5 to 7 points from the final quotations of Wed nesday.
