but neither he nor the baggage have
put is appearance at New Orleans.
Vaught made no secret of the fact that
be did not care to study, and vas
especially against military training and

He resorted to the subterfuge Of stat

get money from DR.. Porter to enable
him to leaye Charleston.

Two Gypsies who had been camping in
the neighborhood were suspected.
When search for them was made they
could not be found. A telegram to
Winnsboro caused item to be inter
cepted. The stolen property was found
in their wagon. They gave their names
as Arthur and James Lamand, and
seem to be fine pair. They say the
horse and wagon they had belonged to
them, but this is to be doubted, for in
their possession was found two large
dry goods boxes filed with saddles, lap
robes, carpets, harness, and other ar
ticles, about one hundred keys Of diff
ferent sizes and styles, calculated to
work in almost any lock, and kit Of

WORDS OF WISDOM
Address of President Stevens to
commissioners'of Agriculture. =
PLANT FOOD CROPS.
Make Small Bills, Buy for Cash
If Possible; Reduce Cotton
Acreage and Don't
Go Wild.

The first annual convention of the
Cotton States association of the COM
missioncrs opened at New Orleans on
Wednesday. Georgia, North Carolina,
Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and
New Mexico were represented. Com
missioner Jastremski, in the absence of
Governor Foster, delivered the address
Of welcome, which was responded to by
Commissioner Culver of Alabama.
President Stevens then delivered his
annual address.
For years, said Col Stevens, ''the
farmers of the South have been drifting
into condition of bankruptcy aud de-
moralization. This is not due to ster-
ility of soil, nor to unfavorabie climatic
conditions. 1t is not altogether fair to
lay the fault of failure to our people,
for as class they have worked indus
triously, in and out Of season, but they
have not worked with any fixed pur-
pose Of permanent benefit in the end.
| hav for years been urging the farm
ers of Georgia to reverse their methods
if they would escape the conditions
which have resulted from lack of d.
versi6cation in planting their crops.
The salvation Of the people depends
upon rural independence, and [ arge
upon each Of you, the commissioners
of the cotton states, to call upon your
people to change their methods of farm
ing. The farming interest has been
the subject of much discussion by the
press and the people of the South for
the past 12 months; so much so that
the people of the rural districts are
seeking information by reading the
daily and weekly papers and agricul
tural journals. This is one Of the i'm
portant channels through which this
association must rely in reaching the
farming class, by writing monthly let
ters upon agricultural subjects and
questions,.to be published once month
in your neWspapapers.
Mr.. Stevens said there was no doubt
the South is more prosperous today
than at any other time within the last
30 years; prices have advanced and the
people are more hopeful. Tell your
farmers, - he said, ito make small bills;
to buy for cash if possible; to plant
largely for food crops and reduce the
acreage in cotton even below that of
last year. The cotton crop Of 1899
1900 will barely reach 9,00O,0 900 bales
and the average price paid thus far has
been seven cents. But if our farmers
go wild again, as they did in 1893
buy everything they can on time, plant
the whole earth in cotton, and make q
crop Of eleven and one half million
bales-the country sill be ruined,
almost beyond hope
