COL. HUDSON NO BETTER
STILL ILL IN ATLANTA
His Illness The Result Of
Malaria

Commissioner Thomas G. Hudson
srill remains ill at an Atlanta santa
rum, much to the regret Of his many
friends in Americas and throughout
the state. While not confined to his
bed, his condition is such as to rem
der necessary his stay at the santa
rum, where special treatment is Civ
en- him.
Colonel Hudson has been far from
well for several months He had ma
larial trouble early in the summer,
and thought the ordinary treatment
would correct it. But weeks passed,
and although he kept go,ag all the
time he showed no marked improve
Iment
Just after the legislature adjourned
he went to Luverne Springs, near
Montgomery, where he hoped the
water would prove beneficial
| He gained a bit again and went
west with the boil weevil party. The
! extreme heat and dust in Texas seem
ed to have a bad effect, and Colonel
Hudson was forced to come home
from Dallas. He was deeply disap-
pointed because he was gaining much
valuable information on the weeviI
and general agricultural conditions.
He returned to his home in Ameri-
Gus, and about two weeks ago went tC
Atlanta and to the sanitarium where
he now is. His condition is in no.
wise serious, and it is believed thai
the needed rest and treatment giver
him there will prove most beneficial
He hopes to be at his Office again in 6
few days.
Col. Hudson's friends over the state
will earnestly hope for his rapid ant
complete recovery and restoration tc
normal health. He has always beer
a strong, active man and this cOntinu-
ed illness has gone hard with him.

FARMERS ARE GLAD TO
HAVE THE RAINS NOW
InsureS The Planting OF Big
Grain Crop

Sumter's farmers welcomed the rain
that came yesterday and the day pre-
vious as it will prove beneficial in
many respects and a general, soaking
rain has long been needed through
out this section.
While the rain may delap cotton
picking considerably, it will not dam
age the staple to any extent unless
wind should accompany the showers
and blow the loose cotton from the
bell.
Another benefit from rains at this
season is that it insures a large grain
crop in Sumter next year, an end al
ways to be desired.
With the crops wellnigh gathered
now, formers will turn attention to
the sowing of oats, if the ground is
rendered soft enough for fall plough
ing. Oats planted in October or
early November are always better il
the crop yield than are spring oats,
and usually escape a freeze.
Sumter county harvested a mag
nificent oat crop this year and, with
favorable seasons, may do even better
next year.

gained and placed on a firm work
ing basis, other times of meeting,
either more or less frequent, may be
named. 1t is the desire of Secretary
Dunn, however and those who are
working for the success Of the move
ment, that the orchestra be organized
as soon as possible in order that it
may render much needed aid in the
Y. NJ. C. A work.
Especially prominent among the
work that will be assigned to it is the
furnishing of music at the Sunday af-
ternoon services, which have recently
been revived with such encouraging
results. Music supplied at public oc-
casions OF any kind at the Y. NJ. C. A.
is also specially helpful in livening
up such assemblies, so that there is a
broad field ready and waiting for the
orchestra.

Y. N. c. A. WILL HAVE
ORCHESTRA VERY soon
II Should Prove Valuable
Aid In Work

1t is only a matter of short time
before the local Young Mems Chris
tian Association will have among its
other enterprises a full-fedged or
chestra. The many uses for such a
musical organization at the Y.
81. c. A. is apparent at first
consideration, and the orchestra
should prove of invaluable aid in
carrying out the plans of the re-or-
gained institution.
Already the plan of work in getting
the orchestra into shape has been
worked out to a greater or less ex-
tent The regular times for practice
until further plans are formed will
be on Friday evenings after the bas-
ket ball games have been completed.
This will give regular time for the
work of organizing the orchestra at
the time of the week when all those
interested may be gotten together
most easily.

WOMAN ON BOAT
As BULLETS FLEW
Mrs. Charles D. Palmer, Of Memphis,
Has Thrilling Experience During
Haytien Uprising.

NEW YORK, Aug. Hidden be-
hind a small boat. while the decks
OF the craft on which she was a
guest at Port Au Prince, were raked
with bullets from troops on shore,
Mrs. Charles d. Palmer, who former
ly was Miss Katrina Wright, OF Mem
phis. daughter of former Secretary
OF War Luke Wright narrowly es-
capped death. She told a graphic
story OF her experiences when she ar
rived here today on the Atlas liner
Allemania, In from Hayti.
With her husband, Capt. Charles
ID. Palmer, Mrs. Palmer was the guest
Of Evan r. Dick, Wall street brok-
er, who took the yacht American TO
turn IL over TO the now overthrown
Simon government as the nucleus OF
the Haytian navy. Dick and Palmer
also returned on the Allemania. 9th
er passengers We're Antoine Simon,
Jr., son OF the deposed president and
Antoine Pierre Paul, member OF the
Chamber OF Deputies of Hayti. They
have 100000 In gold belonging TO
the deposed president.
Mrs. Palmer said that they knew
nothing about the revolution, which
broke out after they left New York,
until American sailed into the bay Of
Port Au Prince.
I'VE We're on deck when a party
on shore began shooting at US" she
said. They had the range and the
bullets came uncomfortably near. My
husband ordered me to lie down be-
hind a small boat and there stay
ed for some time. Finally the firing
stopped and | got below. Then we
took number OF refugees on board"
Dick said the situation In Hayti
is very serious. II was entirely due,
he said, to woefui mismanagement OF
the country's affairs and to extrava-
gance. The Simon government, he
said, was not corrupt but II was ut
terly inefficient and aroused the revo-
lutionary leaders. There Is no chance
Of stable government being set up
In Hayti under present conditions,
he said.
Simon and Paul rushed on board
the Allemania q moment before sail
ing time and deposited their money
with the purser. They refused to dis
cuss their plans other than to say
they would sail for Paris in a few
days. Both are typical Haytians.
Passengers said that when they
ran on board the steamer both Simon
and Paul were badly scared. The
side pockets of their costumes stuck
out and in the pursers Office they
produced gold coin from every pocket
borrowing bag from the official in
to which to dump II.
