Where Gips,es Come From.


The problem of the origin Of the
gipsies is still unsolved. 1t would
seem from linguistic evidence, how-
ever, that they are remotely de-
scended from. low-caste Hindus of
Northwestern India. The name
gypsy is a corruption of Egyptian.
They were supposed to have come
in the Middle Age from Egypt or
rather Little Egypt" In their own
language they called themselves
Romany, and Rome at one time was
equivalent to the Byzantine In
pire, which included Greece, and
Epirus is said to be little Egypt.
In Greece gipsies were numerous
before the fifteenth century and
certain castles were called gypsy
castles and the tradition is they
were driven out by the Turks
There is evidence to show that they
came into Epirus from Persia, to
which country they had been
brought from India in the fifth
century. In S55 $1,000 were cap
tured by the Byzantines and
brought into Greece. Such seems
the probable story of their descent.

MAURY GOUNTIAN IS
CONFIDENT THAT NEW
ORLEANS WILL GET It
PANAMA EXPOSITION IN 1915
SHOULD GO TO THE ores
CENT CITY.
LOGICAL PLACE FOR EXPOSITION
Dan Wilbur, Former Citizen Of Big
byVille, Boosting the Claims Of the
Louisiana Metropolis Against San
Franciseo-some Arguments.

New Orleans will get the Panama
Exposition in 1915.
Such was the opinion expressed
this morning by Dan Wilburn, one OF
the leading ice manufacturers i'll the
Crescent City, while in Columbia. Mr..
Wilburn was formerly a resident OF
BigbyVille, in this county, and left
here twenty years ago. going to New
Orleans and engaging in business at
that place. He has been highly sue
cessful.
Mr.. Wlburn says that New Orleans
is determined to have the exposition.
They have already raised the sum of
ten million dollars, and they stand
ready to contribute another ten mil
lion if it becomes necessary to land
the plum. San Francisco is also put
ting up a desperate fight to win the
exposition for the Pacific coast, hav-
ing subscribed seventeen million dol
lars toward bringing it to Califor-
mia.
The Louisiana metropolis is pre-
senting its logical claims in every
way possible. Mr.. Wilburn illustrat-
ed it by the logical argument that the
Southern city is so much closer to
than San Francisco,
that the difference in the expense of
a visit to New Orleans and the Pa
ciic coast would be not less than $3.50
Tor the trip. The railroads in case
he exposition goes to New Orleans,
will offer rates for the round trip of
about SIS from Columbia The cost
o San Francisco would reach $500,
Is well as take nearly FIVE days to
make the trip one way.
The exposition is to celebrate the L
f1cial opening of the Panama canal, E
which is set for the first of the year l
915. New Orlens has been the ship
ing point for nearly everything that a
as gone to Panama cities for several Q
ears, and the Americans on the ca
al work are pulling for that city to
lin the exposition
Mr.. Wilburn will remain here for n
everal days, visiting his old home Il
nd friends in this county. ?

Some Complaint From the Country Of

eraI-.EarIy Wheat is in Better Con-

The wheat crop in Maury county
this year is slow in coming up, the
weather being too dry to encourage
the sprouting Of the grains. The
acreage is more than usual, running
ahead of last years crop by several
acres.
There is some complaint in various
sections Of the county of the Hesaian
fly, which is one Of the chief insect
enemies wheat has. This fly gets In
its work soon after the wheat is sown,
and the effect is felt when the heads
never mature. This pest does not
seem to be general, however.
Just after the wheat was sowed.
there was not enough rain to help the
crop. Then, when the rains finally
came, it TURNED too cold for the
growth. With these natural dIsad-
the crop is decidedly back

lition, as it sprouted before the dry
weather. set in.

ions are favorable. the crop viii JET
