year, we had no disease. Where we
planted seed from diseased bOlls, or
seed from cotton fields where the dis
ease was bad we have an abundance
of the disease. We have also met with
a large number of cases Of anthracnose
over the state which have originated
through seed sent in from certain seed
houses.
I'VE find also that some of the peo-
pie who are growing seed for sale in
this state have been distributing the
disease through their seed. AS stated
above, it is an easy matter to get rid
of cotton anthracnose when the people
will take the trouble to do it. All that
is necessary is to secure seed that is
free from the disease and plant these
on land which has not been in cotton
for one year. The best way to secure
fresh seed is to pick them in your own
field. In such cases. where the disease
occurs, it is well to he very careful not

which show any sign at all OF the dis

pick cotton for seed from stalks which
are free from the disease.
1T is hoped that the people will take
an interest in this matter and make an
effort to get rid of this disease, which
is now causing millions of dollars lost
to the cotton farmers annually. For

There is little doubt that the private
life of King Manuel has had much to
do with deepening the prejudice against
him among the less literate element OF
the Portuguese people. His personal
peccadilloes have no doubt been mag
nified. but it seems to be accepted that
the youth is the son of his father in
respect of certain easy standards of
behavior.
The name of Mile. Gaby Deslys, re-
puted to be one of the most fascinat-
ing of the young actresses on the Paris
stage, has frequently been linked with
the kings. To her is in part attrb-
uted his downfall. He is said ito have
lavished upon her, in the course of an
infatuation of which no secret has
been made, gifts in money and jewels
representing fabulous amounts.
Mile, Deslys has been one of the
stars in the Bohemian set of the
French capital. All Europe knows her.
Dazzling beauty framed in the richest
that money can buy, in gowns and
jewels have marked her out from
among even the most luxurious of the
Partisan demimondaine.
Appearing first in musical comedy,
she later abandoned that meter for
the prose comedies of the boulevard
theatres. The Foles Bergeres also
knows her as a dancer.
Translated, the name of Mile. Deslys
means "Gabrielle of the Lilies" Sue

HOW TO PREVENT ANTHRACNOSE
Loss to Cotton 100000 During Year
In This State.

In This State.
Rotation of crops and careful seed
selection is given by experts as pre-
ventive for anthracnOsc, the disease
which has damaged the cotton crop OF
South Carolina during the present year
to the extent of $4,OOO.0O0. The Glenn
son experiment station, under the di-
rectiOn of II. w. Barre, has made a
careful study of anthracnosc during the
past year and the above conclusion has
been reached. Prof. Barre was among
the visitors in the city yesterday. He
said that the disease had appeared in
almost every county in the state and
that great damage had been wrought
in several sections. He has been STU
dying the disease for more than n year
and is an expert on the subject.
THE selection Of seed and rotation
of crops is a sure preventive" said
Prof. Barre.
While here Prof. Barre conferred with
Ira w Williams. the state agent of the
farm demonstration work. During the
past several weeks Mr.. Williams has
received cotton affected with the dis
ease and recently a bulletin was -
sued telling the farmers how to pre-
vent the disease. The estimated dam
age 10 the crop by Mr.. Williams is ST.
900, 600 This estimate was confirmed
by Prof Barre.

ever, that from the Investigations
which have been conducted at Clemson
during the past few years, it is evident
that the anthraCnOse can be cOntroll-
ed. When the Investigations were
started there nearly two years ago.
there was very little known about TINS
disease During the first year "i our
work we found that the fungus grows
into the seed and remains alive ther"
as long as the seed are in dormant
condition. We found, further. that
where seed which contained the disease
were planted, they produced diseased
plants. This lead us To believe that
the seed are the principal source ot IN
fcction. The results of this years en-
pertinent i'm the field have borne this
out. Where we picked cotton for seed
only from healthy stalks, or healthy
bolls, and planted these seed ON land

down, thus, by the letters we know
them to represent. leaving a space for
the unknown

Here we are enabled, at once, to
discard the tn, as forming no portion
of the word commencing with the first
t; since, by experiment of the entire
alphabet for a letter adapted to the
vacancy, we perceive that no word can

be formed of which this tn can be a
part. We are thus narrowed into

necessary, as before, we arrive at the
word tree as the sole possible reading
We thus gain another letter, +. repre-
sented by {. with the words the tree

Looking beyond these words. for a
short distance. we again see the COM

termination to what Immediately pre-
cedes. We have thus this arrange

or. substituting the natural letters,
where known, it reads thus:

Now, if, in place of the unknown
characters. we leave blank spaces. or
substitute dots, we read thus:
the tree thr...h the,
when the word through makes itself
evident at once. But this discovery
gives us three new letters, q, Il. and &,
represented by /, ?, and 3.
L"nking now, narrowly, through
the cipher for combinations of known
characters. we find. not very far from
the beginning, this arrangement,
S3(SS. or egrec.
which, plainly. is the conclusion of the
word degree and gives us another
letter d. represented 10y :.

as before. we read thus:

tive of the word thirteen and again

Differing accounts of the young

Juan. Francis Potter, nephew and
godson of the late Bishop Potter and
secretary to the United States minister
to Portugal at the time of the assas-
sination of King Carlos, said recently
of the son:
Manuel is n clean, nice, charming
boy. All the stories told about his

true. He adored his mother and was
worshipped by her"

publicans at Lisbon, on the other hand.
draws a far less hattering picture Of
the youth. BY this progressive he is
regarded as a recluse, a religious mys-
tic and weakling.
The dreamy, weak and mystical
character of King Manuel" he is quot
ed as having said yesterday, was one
of the chief causes of the terrible but
glorious outbreak in Lisbon. He has
surrounded himself with clericals, by
whom his weak will has been COM
pletely dominated. His mother, Queen
Amelie, is even stronger than he in her
devotion to the ecclesiastical.
"The king seems to be utterly i'm
practical. He is content to leave the
government in the hands of his min
listers and asks only for leisure to at
tend masses and study music"
Senior Lima declared that Manuel
rarely attended popular celebrations
and seemed Indifferent to the people.
He is the last Of the line" the Re-
publican leader went on, hence the
ministers have been urging his speedy
marriage. 1t was reported in Lisbon
that negotiations had been concluded,
for an alliance with the German en-
peror's daughter, Princess Victoria

popular union possible and a direct

Police Judge FredericksOn yesterday

be lawfully elected from the kitchen

terry Ebert alleged that he had

finally been thrown out of the kitchen
without his wages. Injury was heaped

him in the face.
Testimony was offered to show that
Ebert knew nothing about restaurant
work and less about the duties of Il

customers were forced to leave the
