PIcKERs ARE IN oReAT OEMANO

so Fast Is the staple Opening That
Farmers Cannot Keep Their Fields
cieared--ThIs Is by Rapid Opening
Of the Bowls.
The cotton situation in Alachua
county was never more discouraging
20 the planters than II is the present
season, and II will be fully one-third
short In all sections.
The condition Of the crop west Of
the city is badly affected by rust and
the staple is opening up freely, with
the result that the producers are I'M
able TO get pickers TO clean the bowls
OF the precious staple.
In the AIachua section the condi-
tion OF affairs Is still more depIorable,
for the people there plant heavily In
cotton, and In fact Il is the main
crop Of the farmers I'm that section
OF the county, and their loss, unless
the price advances, will be a heavy
one.
Aside from the rust which has
largely affected the cotton. the red
bugs have made their appearance and
are invading whole plantations, which
greatly decreases the market value.
II IL understood that J. NJ. Shaw,
one OF the most extensive cotton
planters OF the Alachua section, WIN
not pick a pound OF cotton the present
season. owing TO the rust and red bug,
which have infested his crop.
There are planters whose fields
have been similarly affected. but they
have been able 10 save some OF the
crop, and the main thing now that
hampers them Is pickers. as they
would harvest what they could OF the
crop, even II II is damaged.
Il IL expected that all fields win
be cleared OF cotton Ia this county

HENRI DUVERNOIS ON
The AMERICAN GIRL"
Turkish Ambassador to Paris, Who
Draws st,15o Year, Will Not Stand
for Proposed Reduction in His
Allowance.
BY PAUL vlLLIERs.
Hearst News Service.

Paris, May 16.-Prince Victor, of
Thurn and Taxis, seems to be perse-
cuted by Nemesis which follows him
every where. Having just escaped
from the London courts where he had
to appear to defend himself in an ac-
ton brought against him by Miss Jose
phine Moffitt, an American girl who
claimed he married and deserted her,
he came to Paris only to find himself
in an even worse plight for now he has
nothing left but the clothes on his
back.
The Princes whole wardrobe aud all
his personal belongings have been
seized by the police on the complaint
Of Mile Wilhelmine Kemper, who de-
clares she is going to sell them at pub
lie auction unless Prince Victor set
ties with her.
The complainant had a fortune of
$3.50 900 and having made the acquait-
ance of the. Countess de Clare and the
Count Zeltynski, was persuaded by
them to advance money to Prince Vic
tor in order that he might be enabled
to contract wealthy marriage.
She says that a friend of his pro-
posed as guarantee for the advances
seven-seventeenth of Manganese mine
concession at 1vanovski, in Russia.
| Mile. Kemper declares she advanced
| $15O,O00 whilst according to the Prince
it only amounted to $4,000.
| Mile Kemper, who is middle-aged
woman. found the Prince was in Paris
and staying at the Hotel de France ct
de Cheisel She promptly went to
her lawyer and instructed him to levy
| dlstraint on the clothes and personal
belongings of the Prince. A bailiff
went to the room occupied by the
Prince and levied distraint on the
Princes valise and all the clothes he
was not standing up in.
The Prince was exceedingly annoy
ed at this proceeding, for he found
it extremely awkward to be deprived
of his wardrobe. However, an arrange
ment was come to.
i The baliff took careful inventory
of all the Princes belongings and ther
offered to make the Prince the man il
possession of his own clothes. This
is the custom in the case of distraints
in France.
The Prince accordingly accepted tht
responsibility of being placed'in charg'
as legal custodian of his own clothes
But he cannot remove his clothes from
the hotel unless the distraint is remov
ed, and Mile. Kemper refuses to re
move it..

cause he is a foreigner, with no res
dence of his own in France, and hi

PRINCE VICTOR FOLLOWED
BY RELENTLESS NEMESIS

The American girl as she is, after
the financial panic of last year has CIV
en- up the excessive luxury. the extrav-
agant dresses, the priceless gems She
formerly adored, she no longer wastes
her time reading French novels and
what she formerly considered shock
ingly bad form she now practices.
The typical American girl of today
does not live in Fifth Avenue, she
does not idle her time away, she works
and is proud of working.
She knows how to defend herself
under all conditions and is in every
way a sturdy, healthy and very ener-
getic young person.
His Excellency Munir Pasche, the
Turkish ambassador to France is a
most Independent gentleman, who does
not fear to tell even his imperial mas
ter Adul Hamid what he thinks.
Recently Abdul made up his mind
that he must have minister at Brus-
sells, and as the purchase of the Hope
diamond had left the Turkish treas
ury somewhat deplated he saw no reas-
on why Munir Pascha who is very
rich man should not pay at least part
of the new ministers salary.
He accordingly informed Munir
that his salary as ambassador to
| France in the future was to be cut
with $1150 year.
| 1t took Munir Pascha just one hour
according to the story current in dip
lomatic circles to write and send off
a dispatch to Constaninople in which
he informed Abdul Hamid that if there
was to be any salary cutting, his maj
esty had better look for another am
bassador to look after mis- interests in
France and the Sultan gave in just
as quickly.

New York, May 14.-Many we'll
dressed women, who must yet econo-
mize in expenditure, make a practice
of carrying out one or two color
scheme in their wardrobe of the sea-
son. Thus, we will suppose that last
summers clothes carried out the
idea OF green; many of these clothes
are still good and With some renew
ing can be made to do much service.
This seasons color is to be brown,
which will agree with the green and
combine well with other colors and
what may be chosen next year. In
this way much worry, care and an
noyance is lost and one is not always
fretting fer fear that their outfit will
be hodge podge; for if all providings
have been bought with the remem-
brance that they must harmonic or

AMERICAN SET in London
TO AID WORK OF CHARITY
Special Cable to The Daily News.
Hearst News Service.

London, May 16.-There will be
good deal going on in aid of charities
in the American set later on, and one
of the big affairs of this kind was the
concert which had the wife of the
Prime Minister as one of it's patrons,
as wella Mrs. G. Henry, who lent her
house in Dorchester Gate for the after
noon.
Mrs. Henry is clever American,
who has acquired an interest in Brit
ish politics because her husband is the
Liberal member for Wellington. She
is the daughter of the late Leonard
Lewisohn, of New York, and among
other charitable works in which she
is actively interested is the hospital
or home which she has built within
the precints of the park of her home
near Henley.
