A press dispatch gives an &C.
count of a homicide that took
place in Horny county last Satur-
day night. It is stated that two
twin brothers named Will and
Lee Nance, while under the in
fuence of liquor, got into row
with a negro boy, became enrag
ed when the BOY was spirited
away from them, and then went
70 the home Of widow where q
party was being beld. When
they entered the house in bois.
terous manner, cursins in the
presence of the ladies, a sop-in-
law of the widow, one Dempsey
Potter, demonstrated with them
Thereupon Will Nance became
more pronounced in his offensive
language and advanced on Potter
with an open knife, when Potter
fred upon him and killed him al
most instantly. The report goes
on to say that 1.-The dead man
and his slayer are both married
and stood we'll in the community
It is a matter Of conjecture as TO
whatexaent the Nance boys would
have gone if they had not stood
we'll in the community. Possibly
they would have blown the lights
out and gone 70 shooting among
the ladies first thing. Ali the
other guests should feel grateful
that they did not have any real
toughs to break in amongst them.

House committee Investigating
ship subsidy charges, said be
regarded al ship subsidy as
graft, but conceded that there
are men who honestly support
that cause. Mr.. Dodsworth, If
called upon for an opinion, would
no doubt pronounce the pro

similar schemes is nothing but
graft. It is ext, t,emely doubtful
if any intellig.n. man honestly
supports any Of these robbery

TIE new CORN BELT.

TIE new CORN BELT.
Statistics taken from the re-
ports of the United States gov
eminent show that the South can
Justly claim the t!tle Of 1.-The new
corn belt," and that more prog
ress in the production Of corn has
been made in the South than in
any other section Of the country.
The federal figures for this year
show that the increase IN produc-
ton for the Southern States IN
corn production was i60, 0O0, 900
bushels.
Commissioner Watson has made
the following estimate:
That in the new corn belt the
average value per acre Of the
crop, q: prices pre1ail!ng De-
cember !. 1910. is S14.eS against
$13. SO for the old belt
That, even including West Vir-
ginia, which, should not be prop
ersy included, the y States ofthe
new corn belt, not including
Texas, Arkansas or Oklahoma,
show an average net increase IN
yield per acre this year over 1909
Of l.9 bushels per acre-pract J.
caiiy two bushels iu one year,
against q net average decrease
for the old corn belt Of 4 bush
els rer acre.
1.l4.t every State properly be-
longing TO the new belt shows a
substantial increase in yield OF
corn per acre in 1910 over 1909,
West Virginia alone falling be.
hird.
That only four out of the II
States of the old belt show in
creases in yield per acre, ali the
others showing decreases run
ming in one instance TO as high
as Il bushels.
That il 1900 the old belt show
ed an average yield per acre Of
SOL bushels per acre. while in
1910 the average yield IS only
3o.4 or practically no increase in
average yield per acre.
That the old belt IS just three
bushels above the average yield
per acre on corn IN the whole
United States. while the new belt
lacks now only 50 bushels OF be-
ing up TO average, notwitbstand-
lug her large body OF ignorant
farmers.
Tha: the new belt has jumped
from an average yield per acre of
Is bushels in 1900 to % , in 1910,
while the old belt has added but
3 o! I busl,ei in the same period.
That the area in square miles
covered by the old belt is more
than quarter Of a million greater
than that covered by the new
belt.
Tia. .he old corn belt produces
in bushels thr>e times as much
corn as the new corn belt. oa over
twice the acreage devoted tocorn,
yet the nex belt gets in cash for
it's crop of corn more than one.
half as much as the old belt, using
prices prevailing Dec. l, 1910.
That the average price per
bnshel in the new belt on Decem-
berl. 1910, was 677.5 cents against
an average in the old belt OF Il
cents and 4S.S for the entire Uni
ted States.
That corn is not the staple and
whole reliance crop of the new
belt, these IL States raising aside
from all o,ne:- crops many mil.
lions worth of cotton. the com-
modify that now represents half
Of the agricultural exports of the
country.
That in the old bels, corn is the
principa! crop.
That in the new belt the ad-
vance IN wheat growing and pro.
duc.ion are even more rapid than
in the case of corn.
These are some of the reasons
that will be advanced by the
South Carolina delegation as to
why the next National Corn Show
should be brought to Columbia
and to the South for the first
time.

zky, Hungarian. who ran a private
bank and steamship agency at 20 Ave
nue. b., was found dying with a bullet
wound in his body, in his office to-
day The door of the safe was open
and its contents disarranged while the
inner safe, in which De Brovszky us.
ually kept large sums OF money and
tickets, had been smashed and was
empty The banker died before an
ambulance surgeon reached the scene.
Detectives who were hurriedly called,
found that $1,000 was missing.
The police, after searching the room.
found a revolver with one cartridge
exploded and said that the banker
might have shot himself, although
they insisted that the broken safe
and the fact that the $1,000 was mis-.
sing pointed strongly to murder Mrs.
De BrovsZky insisted she could throw
no light on the death of her husband.

DROPS SUIT TO SHIELD
ENGLISH SOCIETY FOLK
Baron De Forest Drops Slander Action
Although Defendants Admitted
Making Charges.

LONDON, March 27.-The names of
many society people were probably
saved by the unexpected dropping to-
day of the SANDER suit Of Baron De
Forest, the young millionaire manager
of the estate OF Lord Derby, against
Lady Gerard. his mother-in-law, and
Henry NJ. Miner, her brother.
De Forests only explanation was
that he was unable to prove the cir
culation Of the alleged slander, which
was that he had beaten his wife,
kicked her downstairs and treated her
with such persistent brutality that she
was forced TO seek separation.
His excuse was considered remark
able, inasmuch as the defendants ad-
mitted making the charges, but con-
tended that they were true.
The real reason Is generally be-
lieved to be pressure from some Of
the most prominent social leaders In
England. 1t Is known that the king
himself wished that the suit be
dropped.
Judgment was rendered for the de-
PENDANTS.
