SCHOOL BOY SUICIDES
Montezuma Youth, Aged 10 Years,
Shoots Himself in Breast = Goes to
Cemetery to End Life Had Trouble
in School.

Special to Times Republican.
Montezuma, Oct. 3.-Presumably be-
cause he could not apply himself to
his studies and had been reprimanded
for his deficiencies in school, Chester
Samson, an 1S-year-old boy of this
place, made what will prove a success
full attempt to destroy his own life here
this forenoon.
Samson was found in the cemetery
at II o'clock today, unconscious from
a bullet wound in his breast. A revol-
yer, his own property, was found lying
near, and all the evidence points to self
destruction. The boy was never ro-
bust, and had been having trouble in
school because he seemed unable to
apply himself to his studies. 1t is
thought that he brooded over recent
reprimand and became despondent.
He has not regained consciousness,
and there is no hope for his recovery.

WILSON TALKS COTTON
Secretary Of Agriculture Addresses
Growers at Manufacturers Associa-
ton Convention.

washington, Oct 3.-The National
Association Of Manufacturers con-
yened here today in semi annual ses-
sion for a two days meeting. About
200 delegates, representing nearly
every section Of this country, and over
100 cotton merchants from England,
Germany, Italy, France, Portugal and
Belgium, are in attendance. The
convention here is preparatory to the
international conference of cotton
growers, spinners and manufacturers
at Atlanta, Ca, October Z.
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
opened the convention with an address
in which he said:
'The problem presented to our cot
ton growers is not so much the cost
of labor as the Intelligence with which
the crop is grown. In growing rice
along the gulf coast and in the south
ern states, it was found that one
American could produce as much rice
in a year as 400 orientals, so that our
cotton producers, by better farming
said the secretary, "can double our
production Of cotton per acre. Under
tillage possibilities the cotton produc-
tion in the country is practically linn
itless.''
Wilson said he had been helping the
cotton producers in every way within
the departments power, in overcoming
diseases affecting it and insects which
ravage the cotton plant, and also by
developing superior varieties.
