No Punishment to Fit the
Crime.

Yorkville, November 13.-Last
Saturday night Policeman Sanders
caught. Harry Wand, the negro sex
ton of the Church of the Good Shep-
herd, (Episcopal,) of this place, red
handed in THE act of selling whiskey
to three white men over the pulpit Of
the church. In searching the vestry
room quantity of whiskey was
found in the closet or wardrobe,
where the surplice Of the rector is
kept when not in use.
Policeman Sanders had had his eye
on Ward for some time, but refrain
ed from arresting him sooner in Or
der that there might be no doubt as
to his guilt. The specially unfortu-
nate aspect of the case. is that the law
as it now stands does not provide ed
equate punishment for such an out
rage as this, as the limit is 500 fine
or thirty days imprisonment. It is to
be hoped that at its next session the
legislature will change the law SO as
to make the minimum penalty Six
months imprisonment and $500 fine.

JORDAN FOR 15-CENT COTTON.
Says Secretary Wilson Proves What
the Crop is Worth-He Will So
Proclaim.

Atlanta, November 13.-President
Harvie Jordan of the Southern Cot
ton Growers association says:
"The open declaration of Secretary
Wilson that the recent condition re-
port is accurate and trustworthy and
which shows that the years crop will
be in the neighborhood of only 1o,-
100000 bales, should knock out all the
high estimates and put everybody
down on the working basis of a short
crop"
The secretarys estimate confirms
the report made by this association
some time ago, predicting a crop of
about 100000 bales. AS this re-
port is confirmed by accurate infor-
nation from two or more reliable
sources, it is unquestionable that the
remainder Of the crop now in the
hands of planters should not be mar
keted for less than IS cents pound.
I shall at once issue proclamation
advising this course"

AUTOGRAPH COLLECTING.
Changes In the Hobby Within Sixty
Years.


1t is curious to note the change which has
been unconsciously effected in autograph
collecting IN the last sixty years or so.
When the hobby was In fits infancy--that Is,
in the earlier half of the last century-the
autographs of royal and noble personages
were ranked first and foremost. and It was
chiefly to such personages that John Cough
Nichols devoted his fine work on auto
graphs. 1929. Such autographs have al
ways commanded good prices. but these
have not increased in value in the same
ratio as those of less highly placed but
world-renowned men. That king of auto
graph collectors Dawson Turner, who was
in his way sui generis, obtsined many royal
and noble examples but he limited himself
to no class or country. He amassed col
lection of over forty thousand examples.
all OF which were acquired at comparatively
small sums. I possess letter from him to
dealer, dated Yarmouth, December O.
ISIS. comprising an order for certain auto
graph letters, of which eleven were at Id
each. six at Cd. each and three at Is. each,
and these prices would seem TO have been
average ones at that time for ordinary let
tiers OF distinguished men, noble and other-
wise. Dawson Turner's hobby must have
returned pound for every shilling spent
on it.
Until within quite recent years a highly
representative and extensive collection of
autograph letters could have been formed
at an average of f5 q letter, and q fairly
good and interesting collection at much less
than that. Unfortunately for collectors
such is not now the case. for the men with
unlimited means have adopted the hobby

"HE great steel doors of the state pen
itentiary at Moundsvllle, w. Va,
were swung open yesterday to admit
representative Of The Star, who
had gone there of his own free WILL
unshackled and unfettered, to inquire after
the health of half a dozen distinguished
prisoners, and to convey to them greetings
from their Washington friends. Just inside
the doors stood a man Of rather portly
build, attired in prison gray. his hands In
his pockets and smile on his jovial face.
He looked more like a monk, contented
within the walls of his monastery, than a
famous prisoner whose misdeeds Were her
aided to every corner of the universe. In
his rounded face there were no lines of
worry; in his eyes there was the twinkle
of old. The captain of the guard passed by.
Good morning. Cap said the portly
prisoner. with a wave of his arm and a
nod of his head.
Good rlorning. Machen," replied the cap
tain of the guard, for the man in the prison
gray was none other than August w.

rural free delivery service of the United
States. and now convict clerk at the West
Virginia penitentiary.
few moments later the big south door
leading to one of the groups of cells was
pushed open and little man with gray
beard and wearing a conspicuous uniform
darted into the hallway. He had a pencil
in one hand and a pad of paper in the other,
