Jacques
IN MIzzoURA.

Not one of the many dramas which
 have been written by Augustus
 Thomas is as typically American as Tn Mizzoura," which is being play
 ed by Poli's Own Stock company at the Jacques this week. The men are rough and ready characters thoroughly honest and manly. The play is one of the days when manli- ness was an essential feature in a community and the small mean man had no place. In Mizzoura" is about Kate Vernon a girl who has been sent from the west to an eastern col lege. Her refinement spells her lik- ing for the plain simplicity of her home and she is not satisfied. She takes up with stranger who proves to be train robber and 1t Is not un- til after she learns this that she realizes that her own plain home and people are the best. Richard Gordon does excellent work as the young sheriff whom Kate jilts and after- wards marries. Miss Frances Nord- strom as Kate has made very fav- orable impression and the support ing company is excellent. An inform al reception will be given this after noon and souvenir photographs will be given away Saturday. Popular prices.

FOR PRESIDENT
Honduras Getting Ready For
More Trouble.

TEGUCIGALPA, HONDURAS, Sept,
10. (SpeciaD Celebrations will be
held throughout Honduras tomorrow
and Sunday, the anniversary Of the
political emancipation of Central
America, and will be marked by a re-
turn to a constitutional form Of gov
eminent, adopting the provisions Of
the constitution of 1894. The proyis-
ional government will be abandoned
next month, when a permanent pres
ident will be elected. The principal
candidates are General Davila, presi-
dent of the provisional government,
and Dionysius Gutierrez, formerly a
member of the cabinet and for many
years prominent in Honduranean po-
liticaI affairs.
WASHINGTON, Sept 13.-It is an
nounced here that Honduras will
adopt a permanent form of govern
ment tomorrow, and it is generally
believed in official circles that the del
cision is due to the refusal of the
Washington state department to rec
ogniz9 the provisional government.
An application for such recognition
was made some time ago by Senior
Ugarte, who was sent here for that
purpose. The reason given by the
state officials for the refusal was that
such recognition Of provisional gov
ernments offered q prmium on revo-
utions, and greatly retarded the eff
fects Of the more conservative ela-
ment in Central America to establish
stable and responsible governments.
1t is believed that the influence of
President Roosevelt and President
Diaz had much to do with the decis-
ion of General Dayila to turn his po
litical fortunes to an appeal to pop
ular suffrage.

ATTEMPT TO RUIN THE STATE

ATLANTA, Sept. 13. (SpeciaD-
Boil weevil, the most dreaded of all
cotton destroying insects, have been
shipped from Texas and placed in the
growing cotton fields of President
Harvey Jordan of the Southern Cot
ton Association, at his plantation near
Monticello, according to letter re-
ceiyed by State Entomologist R. l..
Smith from a member of the boil
weeyil commission of Texas.
The letter stated that the writ:r
had overheard a conversation in Tex
as in which this fact was stated pos
itively
La,..-olosi-s EIl,h t2o,1 The Letter
to Mr.. Jordan and asked if he had re-
ceived any complaints from his crop
on this score.
Mr.. Jordan stated that he had not,
and it was suggested that the two go
and make an examination of the
growing crop. Mr.. Jordan has left for
White Springs, Fla, to hold a conyen-
ton of the Sea Island Cotton Associ-
alton and will join Entomologist
Smith there Friday and examine the
field for any possible trace of this
pest
we are not going to take any
chances" declared Entomologist
Smith in discussing the matter q
am going there at once and make a
thorough examination of the cotton
crop and see if there is any trace.
The Georgia crop is too valuable to
run any risk in this direction.
I'VE had a report from Aragon,
Ca, this week that seed shipped from
Texas to that point contained boil
weevils, and I have sent our assistant,
Prof w. v Reed, there and he IS now
making an examination to see if he
can find any trace of this insect.
Georgia farmers and Georgia cot
ton seed product buyers cannot be too
careful in the matter of purchasing
J cotton seed, cotton seed hulls and
the like from Texas. There is a great
risk in importing them into this state,
for there is danger Of getting in the
boil weevil with them Cheap cot
ton seed out there is acting as an in
centive to import, and in importing
j
porting boil weeyil, too.
q see that the cotton seed oil mills
in South Carolina has refused to buy
seed from the West just on this ac-
count. Produce dealers, too, are find
ing that cotton seed hulls furnish ar
ideal ALTERNATING place for the weevil
and in the spring he comes forth il
all his devilment"
