VAN EvERY'S SHOTGUN
The Trouble Over an Orwell at Court Street,
Which Is Claimed by Two People

An elederly man named Alonzo Van
Every appeared before Justice Young yes
terday afternoon on the charge that he
bad made an assault with deadly weap-
on, October Sth, upon the person of O..
W. Childs. better known as Willie Childs.
The trouble occurred at an oil well on
Court street, the title to which is claimed
by Mr.. Martin and also by Mr.. Childs.
Both sides have had watchmen on duty
at the pumping plant, but on the fore
noon that Childs went to the well Avery,
who is guard in the mploy of Martin,
held thesfort. Mr.. Childs told him that
he wanted to go into the engine room.
Van Every picked up a loaded double
barreled shotgun which stood near the
door and told Childs that ne would not
allow him to enter. The defendant did
not raise the gun but held it to his side
by the barrel. There is suit now pend
ing in the superior court over the owner

THE COMMITTEE OF THIRTY
La Fiesta Phalanx Gets Together for
Business
Considers the Grouping Of the Various Features
and Events The Financial Work
Is Rapidly Progressing

The committee of thirty of La Fiesta
commerce. Mr.. Freeman presided, TWEEN.
ty members being present.
The greater part of the meeting was
taken mp with tie consideration of a re-
port from a special committee appointed
at the last meeting to draft general
plan under which the various features
and events of the fiesta were to be
grouped. The report of the committee in
general met with the hearty appreciation
of the committee of thirty, but vas dis
cussed at length and in detail before adj
option, although few features were al
tered. 1t was turned over to the execu-
tive committee to be considered especial
ly in its financial phases before final
adoption. The executive committee re-
ported with regard to the financial work
accom- lished to date, that thirty five
signed subscriptions had been obtained
and about as many more promises which
would smaterialize later. That the total
amount showed a favorable increase over
last year, only one subscription being for
less sum than that subscribed last year.
1t was decided not to make the subscrip-
tons public AT the present time.
The secretary reported that the only
difficulty met with in this work was that
a few who were called upon wished to
put off the matter until next spring. The
view was generally expressed that it was
mpracticable to proceed with the work
in detail until positive knowledge was
received of what funds were available for
the undertaking. and for that reason all
who intend to subscribe should do so as
soon after being called upon by the
finance comm ittee as possible.
The discussion of the details of the
general plan showed that the members
were greatly interested in the work and
were prepared to stay with it vigorously
to the end.

South Carolina Delegates
To Receive 81 Per Day.

constitutional Convention Employees
Were Also To Get Larger Salaries,
But the Appropriation Was So Far
Exceeded That the Grant Had To
Be Rescinded-Til1man Charge.
Columbia, S. c., Nov. 20.-The con-
stitutional convention had an exciting
time last night. The legislature last
year fixed the per diem of the members
at So. An ordinance to provide for the
disbursement of the $4,000 appropri-
ated to defray the expenses of the con-
vention was taken up last night, and 1t
provided for a per diem of S4 for the
members after Oct. Is last and to the
final adjournment. The convention
rushed ahead and adopted this and
then increased the pay of all employees
until the per diem provided amounted
to about $4,000. Eighty-nine MEM
bers came to the hall pledged to vote
themselves 81 a day. So Senator Till
man stated on the floor, and no one de-
MED the assertion. When they real
lied what they had don't and how
much they had voted, an attempt was
made to recall the action by conserva-
tive-minded members. Amid the great
est confusion the convention finally left
all the employees at a low rate and
voted to themselves per diem of 81,
this conclusion being reached few
minutes before midnight.

Reasons Why Farmers Would DO Well to
Crib Their Corn. q

Reasons Why Farmers Would DO Well to
Crib Their Corn. r.
We are well aware that it iSheXt to
impracticabe to give the above advice
and expect every corn grower to act
upon it. In many of the corn-growing
states farmers will be compelled to
market their crops at once in order to
raise money for current expenses.
Then there is too prevailing senti-
nient that all crops should be sold just
as soon as they are marketable. But
the farmer who now puts his corn into
good cribs will surely profit by it. We
would even advise that part of the crop
bc sold and crib material purchased.
Corn is now selling, on contract.
through the western states at from II
TO 16 cents a bushel. 1t is sure to go
TO 25 cents within year, and no farm
er, unless urgent necessities demand
it, should let bushel go from his farm
y commission man of Chicago takes
this view of the situation: Il expect
to crib this year from 100000 to p
100000 bushels of corn. find that in
the section where the corn is the very
finest, the price is about 12 cents per
bushel. There have been only three
years since 1881 in which corn has
Jailed to sell at 50 cents in Chicago. A
great many of our customers are going
in with us, and we will crib the corn
and hold il tuntilwe get a profit, no mat
ter how long that is. In 1891, when
corn was SO plentiful, the price in Kan
sas was 10 and ~ cents per bushel, and
farmers were burning it for fuel. Be-
fore that crop year ended corn was sell
ing in Chicago at 81 cents. have never
seen, in my 80 years experience, two
years of liberal rainfall in the west. |
expect dry season next year, and
think higher prices for corn will come
with it. If they do not come we will
wait until they do."-Prairie Farmer.

also in the great lessening of bruises.
This, in the case of apples, pears, etc.
is an item of great Importance, for the
keeping qualities of fruit depend very
,frgely on preventing bruises. The
crates are made perfectly rectangular,
so they can be piled up IN wagon box
with great ease. The making of such
rates as are here figured is very sim
pie matter. Where large number are
to be made, get the material sawed to
the right dimensions at the mill. The
proper length even of bottoms and Stats
can be sawed off at the mill, leaving
only bit of mailing together, and the
cutting of a place for the hand on either
side as shown. Such crates, with care
full use, should last a dozen years.-N.
