TAYLOR DEPLORES
GREED FOR RICHES
Addresses Masons in BANQUET
at Temple.

The greatest danger to our country
does not lie in war with other nations, OF
in the political and social problems of to-
day. but in the wild desire of the people
to accumulate wealth"
This assertion was made by Senator
Robert l. Taylor. of Tennessee, at the
Maundy Thursday banquet of the Ancient
and Accept Scottish Rite, last night, in
the Cathedral, Third and E streets
northwest.
Senator Taylor said that when his
term in the Senate expired he intended
retiring TO his farm in Tennessee and
live away from the greed and craze for
gold found in the city
Others who responded to toasts were
J. Claude KEEPER. grand master OF Ma
sons. District of Columbia: George F.
Moore, and Senator Robert L. Owen. of
Oklahoma. a toast was drunk in silence
in memory OF Albert Pike.
Among those present were James D.
Richardson. George F. Moore, Sterling
Kerr. Elmer c. Simpson. Allen Bussius.
Jacobus Jones. Edward H. Droop, Louis
Goldsmith, Francis J Woodman. Harri-
son Dingman E. P. Morey, Samuel Com
pers. George f. Davis, James Lansbursh,
and others.

clothes were marked "A. Lewis" and
he wore a No. 10 celluloid collar
In answer to telegram sent from
police headquarters in this city a second
wire was received from the Monessen
police stating that a picture of the man
supposed to be DR.. Gray would be for
warded by special delivery letter The
letter will probably reach Washington
this morning. and is being awaited with
interest by the police.
George B. Chew, son-in-law of Dr.
Gray, said last night he was gratified to
learn of any information the circulars
brought. but he was sure the body at
Monessen was not that of DR.. Gray.
"Dr. Gray was only five feet six inches
in height" he said, and for this reason
1 am confident they are wrong. I still
have hope. however, that the 500 cir
culars will bring results. The picture of
DR.. Gray on the pamphlet is nearly a
perfect likeness
There is a reward of $500 for any in
formation leading to the discovery OF Dr.
Gray.

The FOURTH IS TAKEN
In STYLE BY CHAMPS
Three Out of -Four Games
With EufauIa.

Americas won it, of course, and ut
about the usual margin of six to four.
But it was a beautiful game-this last
one with the Eufaulans, and the third
scalp of the current series looked
good as the Champs strung it with
many others furnished by the Alabam-
ans.
General" Lees hot shot were too
much for the Bluff City boys and his
game was won easily although up to
the ninth the prize being in the bal
ance, in reach of both.
Lee and Swink did the heavy work
for Americas with Jeter and Riley as
Eufaula's battery
The game was characterized 10y
hecvy hitting and fast fielding by both
teams. Vibert, for Americas, held
down his old job in the infeld, fact
which gave the fans great comfort, IS
they viewed him from the grandstand
He will play on the Eufaula series
next week, too.
Of ten games played with Eufaula
to date, Americas has won seven;
two games in each of the two pre-
ceding series and three in the series
ending yesterday.

FIRST BOIL OF COTTON
OFF FARM In SUMTER
Staple Fast Opening
on Farms Here.

To Farmer" Griffith Eldridge be-
longs the distinction of exhibiting in
Americas the first open boil of cotton
of the new crop, brought in yester-
day from his pretty 20O-acre farm
near the city. And he has others
many Others-and only brought this
fleecy one as a sample
This is Mr.. Eldridge's first years
experience as a farmer, but he has
been successful beyond his expecta-
iotns and will make excellent crops OF
cotton and corn.
He has one field in particular--a
brag patch Of ten acres-from which
he expects to gather twelve to fifteen
bales. His entire cotton crop is one
of the best in the county, and as all
crops are good this year, this thrifty
young farmer is setting the pace Or
older ones.
Cotton is opening slowly over the
county and a first new bale" will be
marketed in Americas early in Au-
gust. But for the continued rains If
ten days or two weeks, we would have
had a July bale this time.
