HOUSE WED II
BROAD DAYLIGHT
W. R. Walton’s Home on Ellis
Street Was Thoroughly Ran
sacked Wednesday Between
12 and 2 P. M.
One of ttm most brazen and daring
burglaries on record In Augusta was
committed Wednesday on the home of
Mr. W. H. Walton, at 248 Ellis street,
when a negro man entered and ran
sacked the house from garret to cel
lar, between 12 and 2 o’clock In the
afternoon. From the thoroughness
with which the house was gone
through It is plain that the man must
have been In the place at least an
hour, and perhaps longer. There are
neighbors on both sides and people
wore moving about In the houses the
whole time, hut the man wont about
his work undisturbed.
Nobody was In Mr. Walton's house
between 12 and 2, at which time his
young daughter came home trom
school. As the little girl mounted the
hack piazza steps, she saw the negro
In the house. Before she could give
the alarm he fled, leaping out of the
window and over the banisters Into
the buik yard, and disappearing
round the corner. A lady next door
saw Idni as he ran, and her descrip
tion tallies with that of little MUs
Walton. Both are confident they could
Identify the negro.
The police were Immediately noti
fied and are working on the case.
It was one of the most remarkable
robberies on record, as well us one of
the boldest. Although there were two
gold watches In the house, and a num
ber of articles of Jewelry and silver-
not a thing was taken except a
purse containing forty cent* In change
and a aafety razor. Every drawer and
closet In the house was emptied on the
floor and every room was torn to
plecea. It ao happened that Mr. Wal
ton had had some money In the house,
but had removed It the morning the
house was entered It Is thought the
negro was stun* person who had means
of knowing that the money was In the
house.
The negro broke shutters on three
windows before he succeeded In effect
ing ail entrance.

PRES'T URGES
ELECTION Of
DEMOCRATS
Begins Campaign of Letter
Writing Favoring Their Re
turn to Senate and House.
Essential to Administration’s
Program.
Washington.— President Wilson to
day began his letter-writing campaign
* for the election of democratic sena
! tore and representatives. He wrote
letters endorsing Senator Shively of
Indiana and Senator Chamberlain of
Oregon. Others will ba written In the
near future.
In his letter to Senator Owen en
dorsing Senator Chamberlain, the pree
; blent declared that “the maintenance"
i of the democratic majority In the sen
ate Is of the utmost Importance to tho
country If the present policies and
program of the government are to Oa
sustained and continued and I take
It fur grnnted that voters everywhere
win feel the force of that motive."
Shively Endorsed.
The letter endorsing Senator Shive
ly, addressed to Majority Leader Kern
of the senate, stated In part:
‘T am generally surprised that any
question should have arisen as to
whether I want Senator Shively re
i turned. I do most decidedly wish It.
I have admired Senator Shively's
steadfast devotion to duty and to the
| standards of the party and hlg unfal
tering loyalty tn all matters of public
j policy, as all his party associates have,
arid I learned to have a very warm
j personal feeling and admiration for
I him. It would, In my Judgment, be a
very great loss to tha party and to
the senate If he should not be re
elected. I trust that there Is no doubt
of his re-election."
Reiterates—"No Speeches.”
Secretary Daniels will begin cam
paign speaking In Connecticut and
New Hampshire and will speak in such
other states as the congressional cani-
J palgn committee may designate.
Secretary Bryan announced he would
speak not only In Ohio but also In
Indiana, lowa and Nebraska.
To a request by Senator Pomerene
that he speak in Ohio, President Wil
son today reiterated his determination
not to go on the stump. He told the
senator he felt he must remain ac
j tively at tho head of the government
in Washington.
GERMANS SIT
AT BT PEASANTS
In Reprisals, at Village, Wo
men and Children Put Aside
and Men Shot to Death.
Berlin.—The narrative of an artillery
officer, on the extermination of a Bel
gian village, as given out by the war
bureau, follows:
"The countryside was full of our
troops. Nevertheless the stupid peas
ants must need shoot at our men, ai
they marched by. from lurking places.
Day before yesterday morning the
Prussian troops surrounded a village,
put the women, children and old peo
ple aside and shot all the men. The
village then waa burned to the
ground,"
The story of the shooting of a boy
scout is given as follows:
“A traitor lias Just been shot. He
was a little French lad belonging to
one of the gymnastic societies whten
wear the tri-colored ribbons ,n poor
young fellow who, in his Infatuation,
wanted to be a hero.
"As the German column was pass
ing along a wooded defile, he was
caught and asked whether the French
were about. He refused to give any
Information. Fifty yards further there
was fire from the cover of the wood.
The prisoner waa asked in French If
he had known that the enemy was In
the forest and he did not deny It.
"He went with a firm step to a tele
graph pole and stood against It with
a green vineyard at hit back and re
ceived the volley of a firing party with
a proud smile on his face. Infatuated
wretch It waa a pity to see such
wasted courage.'*

iHE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
AT UNION POINT ONLY FIE BALES
OF BIG COUP HAS TET BEEN SOLD
Responsibility of Banks, Supply Houses and Farming Land
Owners to Enforce Reduction of Acreage, Particularly to
Lead the Negro Tenant, Pointed Out By a Banker-Farmer.
WALTER E. DUNCAN,
Staff Correspondent,
The Augusts Herald.
Union Point, G*.— "The main diffi
culty about cutting the cotton acreage
is that the negro knows*nothlng else
except raising cotton. It will, for one
thing, stand a lot of neglect, and then,
too, the negro has caught the Idea
from the white fnan that cotton Is the
one crop in which there Is money,"
says Mr. C. J. Thornton, vice-president
of the Bank of Union Point and him
self a farmer.
"In the present crisis which the
white farmer of the South Is facing,”
continued Mr. Thonnton, "he Is weight
ed with the responsibility, not only of
cutting his own acreage and raising
something to eat, but he must also
teach the negro the necessity both of
planting less cotton and of feeding
himself."
Mr. Thornton admits that the bankß
and supply houses can exert a far
reaching Influence toward curtailment
of the cotton crop and that the law
of necessity will operate to help pre
vent another big crop or even an
average crop on top of that which the
farmers of the South are now holding,
but In our conversation today he drove
home the point that the Individual re
sponsibility of the extensive farmer In
handling his tenants and share-crop
pers Is no Inconsiderable thing.
Lsnd Owner’s Responeibility.
"Next year," said Mr. Thornton,
"I will take from my tenants, for
rent, one-half In cotton and one
half In something else—corn or
wheat—lnstead of all cotton. I In
tend further to make my tenant*
supply my meat, and supplying me,
they will be supplying themselves.
While, as I have said, the negro
knows nothing except raising cot
ton, when I buy grain and put It
there, as I shall do, they will plant
It. Every man who owns farm
ing land should see that Ms ten
ants or share-croppers raise some
thing besides cotton and not too
much cotton, else I am afraid that
all this talk about reduction of
acreage won't amount to any
thing."
Only Five Bales Sold.
At Union Point and throughout this
section everybody Is marking time —
business men waiting on the farmers
and the farmers holding their cotton
waiting for a more favorable mar
ket.
Although from 2,600 to 3,000 bales
of cotton are sold here a season in
normal years, the Bctual sales for
cash so far this season amount to just
five bales. These five bales were
bought by Mr. Ft. A. Rose, cashier of
Our Bank, for the Union Manufactur
ing Company, the hosiery mill which
operated by Mr. Harold Lamb, form
erly of Augusta, is the chief industry
of Union Point, a town of 1,600 peo
ple. The hosiery mill is running full
time, most of the cotton consumed be
ing secured at White Plains. It Is not
to be secured at market price here.
Mr. Thornton Is of the opinion that
instead of holding all their cotton, the
farmers should sell enough at present
prices to relieve the tension and though
there Is a difference of opinion on that
score, there are others, some farmers
among them, I am told, who agree with
him.

“THE MAN ON THE BOX”
AT THE GRAND FRIDAY NIGHT
Read Synopsis, Then See it in Paramount Pictures
es, Is allowing ten cents for cotton
applied on account.
Want Cotton Warehoused.
The three banks, the Bank of Union
Point, Our Bank, and the Farmers'
Bank, through their officers, are striv
ing to impress upon the farmers tho
necessity of getting their cotton In
the warehouses, where It can be pro
tected from fire and weather and
warehouse receipts Issued for It
More Hogs Next Year.
Many farmers throughout this sec
tion, near Union Point and Woodville,
five miles distant and also In Greene
county—ln fact, most of them —raise
in addition to cotton enough corn to
run them. Some winter wheat and
large oat crops are produced. But
very few make enough meat. Not long
ago to supply pigs for a barbecue giv
en here It was necessary to send to
Atlanta for them. But there will be
quite a different story to tell next
year.
Some Independent Farmer*.
Farmers like Mr. J. B. Dalvln, who,
running from 60 to 76 plows, Is prob
ably the moßt extensive planter of
this section; Mr. J. T. Hester, Mr. R.
O. Harris, all living near Union Point,
and Mr. R. R. Shaw of the Woodville
section, are the leaders In the move
ment toward Independence.
Their farms are not simply cot
ton fields. These men produce not
only their own meat supply, not
only enough corn to fill their cribs
but rye, hay, oats and enough
wheat to furnish home-made flour,
and all their home products. The
European war doesn't come Into
their homes, at least not to affect
their larders. They make every
thing practically, that first, and
then grow cotton.
Raises His Own Mulas.
Mr. Shaw goes them all one better.
Independent of the Western farmer so
far as his grain and nay Is concerned,
he raises his own mules, and has at
his horns near Woodville several fine
colts.
The banks at Union Point are dis
posed to extend all the assistance they
can, and, as Mr. Rose explained, so
far as the bank of which he Is cashier
is concerned, Its policy adopted to deal
with the situation Is, rather than
granting a few extensions, to extend
some accommodations to all who need
It, thus making things easier for all
**heir customers.
At Woodville, the Bank of Woo.l
ville, one of the strongest financial
institutions in this county, has adopt
ed a liberal policy. Mr. W. P. Mc-
Whorter, president of the bank, is one
of the biggest farmers of this sec
tion, planting 5,000 to 6,000 acres, and
knows, as only a farmer can, the
meaning of a market price below cost
of production.
For Mr. McWhorter, as for every
far-seeing farmer, the meaning is writ
large—the cotton acreage must be re
duced—and next year he will curtail
his crop.
Woodville is the home of Hon. R. F.
Davidson, chairman of the prison com
mission. Mr. Davidson’s sons are op
erating his farm. Next year the cot
toxf acreage will be cut.
At Woodville a great deal of cotton
has been turned over by farmers ta
the leading merchants, the Bell-Mob
ley Company, Mr. C, G. Moody, and
the C. J. Davidson Company, and ship
ped to Athens for storage, the cotton
applied on accounts.

Betty, while visiting Bob's sister,

Betty's father loses his money; then

Mr. Fred H. Seibert, 976 S. Oakwood Ave., Columbus, Ohio, writes:
It was while reading several of your endorsements in the Enquirer
this morning that I wondered if the traveling salesmen realized the
great benefit of your grand tonic, Peruna. I have noticed in travel
ing that every section of the country will affect your health more or
less. Catarrh is generally the root of your ill health, still few realize
this. If travelers will only use Peruna, they will find no trouble in
acclimating themselves. I have used it on two occasions, once when
I had a deep cold, and again when I had a dropping in the throat. It
works like a charm. No words can explain its great power. Here
after, in traveling, Peruna will be my dearest friend.”

CARRANZA If
DELAY RUTTING
Expected Resignation Possibly
Not Until Conclusion of the
Zacatecas Conference.
Washington, 0. C. —General Car

breach with General Villa, may not

of military chiefs, seeking to com

Zacatecas.
The Zacatecas conference was ex

here is that its sole purpose is to
satisfy Villa's demand. Chief among
those is Carranza’s resignation, and
while that may be pledged, it was
said Carranza probably would follow
his original plan of not actually giv
