Chicago, Oct. 6.-Eugene Hirschfeld
left his dry goods store In Raymond,
Mimi, in the care Of clerks last week
and came to Chicago to marry Esther
Schwartz. But Esther ran away with
an old lover, and Eugene, on the
principle that second choice is first
choice when first choice is impossible,
married Johanna Hirschfield Of Dixon
and took her home to Minnesota.
Esther Schwartz had long loved
Maurice Sternberg, but he was only q
clerk and was poor. One day last
week. however, he met Miss Schwartz
and the unsuspecting Mr.. Hirschfield
at Philip Blume's house, on West
Twelfth street, and while helping her
fold and address $50 invitations to the
Hirschfield- Schwartz wedding, quietly
proposed and was accepted. The next
day Maurice Sternberg and Esther
Schwartz met down town, went to
Milwaukee and were married.
When this became known 1t was too
late to recall the invitations for the
wedding set for last Sunday. Guests
were already on the way from various
points in the state. Then up spoke ].
s.. Edelstein of Belvidere, Hirschdeld's
cousin, and suggested that they have
a wedding anyhow. Johanna Hirsch-

the day he was to have married Esther
Schwartz, he took Johanna to Milwau-

realized that they were moving at an I'M

the smoker was the last OF the train. ana
that there was no brakeman aboard. Grad

THE DEPRESSION IN COTTON.
Its Cause and Remedy, as Viewed b.
~ Senate Committee.


~ senate Committee.
WASHINGTON, Feb as.-During the
Fifty-second Congress the Senate commit
tee on agriculture and forestry was au-
thorized by the Senate to make an in
quiry on the existing depression in farm
products. and Senators George. Bate and
Proctor were selected as subcommittee
to take in hand the portion of the inquiry
concerning the depressed price of cotton.
The testimony taken was to-day reported to
the Senate by Mr.. George. To ascertain the
financial condition OF producers of cotton
the committee addressed circular contain
ing inquiries to large number of farmers
and merchants in each of the cotton States.
The replies demonstrate that with the prices
prevailing in the years 1928 in nearly
every part of the cotton-producing region,
the cost of production equaied, If 1t did
not exceed the value of the cotton raised
a condition that applied even to the small
farmers who raised their crops by their own
instead of better since. The committee con-
cludes that while there is no destitution
there is little accumulation and that energy
and enterprise fail under present adverse
conditions TO make that steady and sure
progress TO which until now the people have
been accustomed. The result has been to
produce widespread discomfort among cot
ton producers and a disposition to discredit
their oftime conservative methods and to
induce too ready acceptance or plausible
theories for relief.
While the committee comedies that the
obvious, apparent and proximate cause
OF these low prices Is oyervroduction. the

by his staff. The cavalcade was, in the
darkness, mistaken for body of the en-

fired on Jackson--and the stranger rode
slowly in the direction pointed out, but
never returned with any answer. Who this

"Day. of Grace" ON Promissory Notes

st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
The passage OF an act by the State Sem
ate at Jefferson City abolishing the three
days OF grace recalls TO mind the fact that
this custom dates from almost the origin
of banking. and had its beginning in a
very queer incident. According to the best
Venice in the fifteenth century. Hebrew
money lender held the note of a Christian
for loan which fell due on Good Friday.
The Christian refused to pay on that day
or until the following Monday. alleging
the holy character of the days ex-
cuse. 1t was taken before magistrate,
who placed the matter on TO the Council
which decided the Christian in the right
END further passed an edict that any note
paid as late as the following Monday with
OUT the maker of the note mourning the re-
proach OF not dscharging his debts at the
PROPER time. Thus originated the three
days of grace, the custom being kept up
long after its significance had been for
gotten.
