GREENVILLE, 8, C., Dec. 13.—Of paramount interest to horse showm »n in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama is the proposed plan of forming a horse show circuii in South Carolina, composed of the cities of Camden, Darlington. Sumter, Columbia, Greenwood and Greenville. The Greenville show, an annual event of eight years' standing and the biggest horse fair held in the South, would be an important factor in tli*■ proposed circuit. It is suggested *hat the first show be held at Camden, be ginning April 1, and that shows bo held in each in turn, the last .n Greenville, probably during the fir:$t week of May. The annual Washing ton, D. C., horse show is to be heid just after the first week in May, and as this is to be the first of the North ern horse shows it is believed that the Northern horsemen will be in duced to bring their horses South and place them first on exhibition in the various cities of the South Carolina circuit. The prizes to be offered in the cir cuit, ns proposed, would aggregate $10,000. The Greenville shows in the past have been attended by exhibitors from practically every Southern State.

GRAYLING, MICH., Dec. 13.— I From poverty and the obscurity of a little country town to a fortune of $2,000,000 is, in a sentence, the Alad din-like story of 21-year-old Klvin Leschappelle, of Grayling. Within a few weeks the young man will enter into his share of the estate left by his father, a millionaire lumberman of Northern Wisconsin. The boy has been living with his grandfather, Delbert Taylor, sinee he was a child. His mother was Mary Taylor and she was married about 22 years ago to Joseph Leschappelle. The young Frenchman w’as hot-tem pered and they quarreled witfijn a month of their wedding day. He left I Grayling at night in a rage and never ieturned. Mother Weds Again. After the birth of her son the I young mother felt called upon to support herself, since her father was poor. She secured a divorce from Leschappelle, and, intrusting Elvin to her father, left Grayling. She is married again, has reared another family and resides in Wisconsin. Her former husband was an ex perienced woodsman and when he left here went to an obscure lumber camp near the northern boundaries of Wisconsin. He rose through the successive grades of lumberjack and foreman to timber cruiser and then to speculator in timber lands. He bought large tracts of heavily timbered country when pine was cheap and did not sell until years later, when it had become scarce and dear. He also married again and one son was born to the second marriage. Investigates Report. The millionaire died recently and word eventually reached Grayling that Elvin was heir to a part of his father’s estate. His grandfather in vestigated the report somewhat, but was too poor to establish legally Kl- vin’s claim. The boy’s chances to share in the fortune were dwindling when R. Hanson, Grayling’s foremost citizen and himself a millionaire lum berman, heard the rumor and im mediately Interested himself for El vin. He took the boy to Detroit and se cured a competent attorney. Inves tigations w'ere prosecuted in Wiscon sin and Elvin’s relationship to the founder of the Leschappelle fortune was conclusively proved. As a result the estate is being wound up and Klvin will share equally in the $1,- 000,000 estate with the half-brother he has never seen.

We wish, however, to call attention to one error, which I am sure was accidental. In your article you stated that Cor- had 200.000 bales of cotton this year, w’here you should have stated that Cordele had 100,000 bales. Desiring that our citv have no mis leading figures placed before the pos sible home-seeker, we desire to make this correction. The bare facts regarding Cordele and Crisp County are marvelous enough and almost beyond belief. W e are receiving a great many new citizens through correct publicity, and wish lo keep "on the square" as well as "on the firing line.’’ Thanking you, I am, very sincerely your. 5 *, LOUIS SPENCER DANIEL.
