NO SIGN OF DEPRESSION That the so-called “financial de pression” has not been as bad as many •would be led to believe is manifest in the fact that one of the biggest man ufacturing concerns in the country, having a capital or $14,000,000, paid in September its regular quarterly dividend. This firm was the Under wood Typewriter Company, which has ample capital to tide it over any tem porary embarrassment. In an inter view with the local manager, Mr. J. K Felker, he stated that as his office was located in the cotton section of Sthe South that his company had al iened him a latitude whereby he was enabled to make better terms on the purchase of new Underwood Type writers than ever before; that he could also b~ more liberal in the ex tension of credit than at any time during his connection with the com pany and that a more liberal allow ance would be made In the exchange of new Underwoods for old, or sec ond-hand machines of other makes. The management realizes that some thing should be done to reinstate confidence in the commercial world, It matters not to what extent it has reached in the mind* of those who are ever on the alert to become alarmed on the first sign of a “panic," “short age of crop,” “depreciation in price of cotton.” Mr. Felker stated that he would be pleased to figure with any one who was thinking of placing a machine In their office- that so far -s the pay ments were concerned this should not he a stumbling block In their way, for the Underwood Company was am ply able to carry thousands of sales until "better times” coached the south. And It seems this will be uui a short time off, for unquestionably business is opening up and money matters are getting better each day. There Is no good reason why a mar should wait "until a mors convenient day” to pur chase a new Underwood Typewriter. When the company is willing to carry vJrne "loan." 3 The Underwood Company manufac tures and sells 30 per cent of all the typewriters sold In the world. This Is certainly one of the highest tests of superiority. It means that the Underwood possesses qualities that no other machine does, or else there would not be as many in use to dc.y. This :* hut a logical surnlse, ew .-Julies Week of Splendid Acme Attractions « Opens at Grand Today With “Mother” With the presentations this after noon and evening of "Mother,” a week filled with specially fine Acme attrac tions is opened at the Grand. Miss Emma Dunn, who created the leading role, is the star in “Mother.” it was expected that the matinee this afternoon would draw a large crowd, and the indication from the advance sale of reserved seats for this even ing's presentation is that it will be seen by a crowded house. Miss Dunn played in the leading part in the stage production of "Mother.” As Mrs. Wetherell she is the ideal mother, portraying the true AT THE MODJESKA A more elaborate program, if such can be. will be put on this week at the Modjeska Theatre.

AT THE STRAND "The Typhoon,” In which a numbsr ot Japanese actors are featured, a five part Varamount picture, is being ex hibited at The Strand today and this evening continuously. A brief description of the story, which will he read with a great deal of inter est before seeing the picture, follows: TokoVa'no lias been sent to Paris by Ills country to secure the plans of the French military forces. ills work is in tered with by the visits to his office of Helene, a chorus girl with whom lie has fallen In love. Helene has heartlessly thrown over her fiance Bernisky for the new and interesting Jap. and meanwhile Tokio’s countrymen in Paris have been informed by their spy of Helene’s visits. Tokoramo endeavors to keep Helene from coming beceuse he is working day and night; but to no avail. She con tinues to visit his apartments against his wishes, and one day while there her rejected sweetheart froces his way past the servant into Toko’s room. Toko quickly hides Helene behind a curtain, here she listens to her own denunciation and exposure from the lips of the man she has so lightly deserted. When Bern isky departs, Toko brings Helene from her hiding-place and bids her go for ever, but sbe pleads passionately to re main. Toko will not listen and de mands that she leave at once. Helene starts, and Toko, realizing how much he cares for her, calls her back. Then she refuses to stay, and In vehement de nunciation tells him Bhe will go back to Bernisky and laughs at him —calls him a "yellow rat" and bids him return to his yellow country from whence he came. This enrages Toko, and he strangles Helene to death and leaves her lying lifeless on his bed. The remainder of the story shows gra phically how Toko's countrymen rally for their country, Toko must do Ills work—one of them must plead guilty. This lot is chosen by Hironarl, a mere boy, who is finally guillotined. In the end and as Toko has completed his work, he too dies, and the valuable pa pers arc burned to escape detection Just as the police are breaking into the apartment.

James Hush, the negro who killed Ills wife in 189 S, and whose rise Inis been ■attracting some attention in the Inst few months, was sentenced to life Im prisonment In the penitentiary by Judge Henry C. Hammond in snperlnv court Monday morning, after entering a plea of guilty, requesting the mercy of tin court. Hush is a negro, aged some 00 1 or 55 years, apparently, and seems a very mild and inoffensive sort of man, somewhat after the old school, not. the least what one would expect a imrt'di r er to look like. He took Ids sentence humbly and without surprise, as if ho laid prepared for it. Albert King, the negro charged with murder for the, killing of Ids brother, pleaded guilty to mansluughter. In a few words Ids attorney, Mr. Inman Hur ry, set forth Ids case. That he had shot Ids brother by accident while shooting at another negro who was attacking him with a knife. A verdict of voluntary inanslaughte? was signed by the fore man of the Jury at the Instruction of the court, and a sentence of three years in the penltetiary was Imposed on the prisioner. Will Hlappy, colored. charged with murder, entered a plea of not guilty, and Ids case occupied the court until - p. m. when the Judge charged the Jury. Slop py, on September Ist. about seven mites out on the C. K- W, (\ road, shot a ne gro named 10(1. Pointer, who died 17 days afterwards at the Lamar hospital. The defense claimed that defendant did so in self-efense when Pointer was atacklng him with a knife, after having attempt ed to assault his sister, Hatty Hlappy, and having cut her severely In th'. arm. 'Hie prosecution took the position that the shooting occurred three-quarters of an hour after the sister was cut and wan an net of lawless revenge. The can* went to the Juiy at 'J o’clock and up to the time The Herald goes to press n» verdict laid been returned. CHICAGO MARKETS Open. Illth.

There are automobiles being sold every day at your price. Every day someone finds it necessary to sacrifice a perfectly good machine. All such automobile bargains invariably find their way to THE HEIIALD’S want ad column. All you have to do is to watch the want ads every day until you find the machine you want at the price you want to pay. Then you must answer that ad just as quickly as you can. The time to buy an automobile is when some body has to sell an automobile. Every day these wonderful bargains find their way into THE HERALD’S want ad columns, and shrewd buyers have been known to save all the way from .SSOO to $1,500 on a second hand car. Many times you will see cars advertised which have only been out of the factory a week or two. People don’t merely try to advertise and sell old, worn out, no account cars. No indeed. There are scores of reasons why folks find it necessary to sell. And if the car they are giving up happens to be the car you want you have very little trouble in get ting a bargain price on it. Begin watching the automobile column today —the very car you want may be advertised in this issue. By “Bud” Fisher LIVERPOOL COTTON Liverpool.
