The Circus

A large crowd greeted the Ha-
genbeck-Wallace show here Friday
and 1t was badly disappointed
crowd when the management an
nounced there would be no par
ade, giving the intense heat as
the reason. The performances
we're unusually well attended
though.
In the morning the circus peo-
PIE spread the information that
their tent was kept cool by the
liberal use of electric fans and
again there was disappointed
bunch OF humanity which sat swell
tering under the big canvas two
hours or more. This bluff should
have been called and the manage
ment punished for the false report
which was spread in n determined
manner. The performance though
was good.
The animals and actors seemed
to stand the heat we'll and did
finely. In the races one man was
severely hurt by horse falling on
top OF him.

A Wonderful Relief

John Boggs, OF near Slater, was
here Friday on business. He was
hurt about six months ago by be-
ing struck by a hose coupling on
the c. & A. railroad. Since then
he has consulted many specialists
In Kansas City as well as most OF
his home physicians without get
ting much relief. His neck was
stiff and one arm nearly useless,
besides causing him much pain
and worry. He finally went to r.
II. Nuckles, the osteopath, who
quickly located the trouble and
remedied IL and he Is happy over
the result. He said the blow he
received dislocated his neck and
also caused a slight conclusion OF
the brain. The doctor fixed up the
dislocation bN there Is no relief
In sight for the other, but he Is
able to enjoy life again.

this the enormous records and tran
scribing needed in the present system
is causing the counties to become.
congested with volumes and there is
no way to remedy 1t except by tne
Torrens system.
Before the Torrens system can be-.
come universal 1t will be necessary
for authentic report on title to be
confirmed by legal process and then
certificate can be issued. A law es-
tablishing the system would soon get
the method in operation and in tie
course OF few years the title and
transcribing as done at present would
soon be over with and the certificates
would be recognized the same as gold
bonds. And why not. for real estate

United States have adopted the sys-
tenn. these being Massachusetts, ILL
nois, Minnesota. New York. Washing
tou. Colorado and California. Some
effort was made in South Carolina a
few years ago to have the system
adopted, but there has been nothing
definite accomplished along this line,
according to information.
The system is defined as being the
registration of title to real property,
eliminating the usual search through
the records at each time of transfer.
This certificate is recorded and q copy
given to the property owner and it is
recognized by the courts. BY this
system when an owner of a piece of
real estate gets ready to sell he does
1t as readily as one would sell stocks
and bonds, there being no long re-
search and endless red tape necessary
An expert discussing the situation
states that today one can complete
q deal for a million dollar worth OF
government bonds, railroad stocks, or
anything in the similar line and finish
it up in couple of hours, while If
there was transfer of a three-hun-
dred dollar piece of real estate in
vo!vcd it would take week or ten

A Demand for Good TITLES.

This country is yet land that is
young and In this section-the South
the real progress has just started.
This brings activity in the way of
transfers and the present system en-
tails no end of worry and work on
those engaged In the aruous task of
transcribing the title and making ac-
curate reports on the legality of the
same.
For decades before the Civil War
the line fence was a suestion Of great
dispute and where French and Eng
lish. Irish and German, French = or
Russian happened to touch borders,
there was more or less trouble al
ways brewing in the families in a
community where even only the blood
of one nation flowed, and the road be-
tween the lines were the only places
where one member of the factions
could travel with 'fety where anoth-
er member of the opposing hosts could
also go with impuity
Time has softened all the harshness
OF these undesirable situations, and
few and fare between come the times
when men disagree about the line
fence of today. But times are chang

from far and near are searching for
homes beneath the balmy skires of
the South and the large old planta-
tlons are being cut up into small plac-

p In other days there used to be an
aversion to sub-dividing these large
old places and in some instances the
entail was resorted to in an effort
to keep the large trarts unbroken.
till the impending advance of pro-
