WILD WEST SHOWS MADE
CHICAGO BOYS CIRCUS.MAD
6, Boys Reported Missing in Short
Time of Two Weeks.

Chicago, August ia wild west
show, a circus and a great military
tournament coming along in rapid
succession, proved too great strain
on the self-control of the boys of Chi
cago, and within two weeks sixty
eight were reported to the police as
missing from their homes.
How many more disappeared
that were not reported to the detec-
tive headquarters is conjectural, but
the number is estimated at two or
three times as many. Parents discern
tow diseases, "wildwestities, and
"Armytheria."
The symptoms are the same, and are
manifested is a desire to throw cloth
eslines over the necks of the family
cats, a liking for revolvers, imitation
and real" sombreros, and an energet-

Mr.. CRISP A CANDIDATE
IN OPINION OF FRIENDS,
As Representative From Third
District

VIII Judge Charles R. Crisp be a
candidate for Congress as the sue
cessor of Representative D. NJ Hugh
es of the Third Georgia district?
While Judge Crisp has made no puo-
lie declaration Of his intentions in that
direction as yet, his friends in Ameri-
Gus and over the district insist that
he will be very much in the running.
Indications point in that direction,
they say. and in due time they look or
Judge Crisp's formal announcement
for this high honor.
Representative Hughes, it is thought,
will serve out the current term in
Congress, and his successor wiz re
chosen at the primary next year, %
serve during the Sixty-Sixth Congress.
And then will come the tug G, war in
the Third district.
Of course, the honor is not going
begging. and there will be other as
pirants for the vacant seat in the
house. Among her favorite sons Sum
ter has a half dozen, while it is i'm
probable that other counties Of the
Third district may name one or more
candidates, thus insuring a very spir-
tied campaign.
1t would seem, however. that the
honor of naming the candidates should
be accorded Sumter county in the next
election, and the other counties will
doubtless realize the business Of Sum
ters claim to the distinction.
However, the primary at which the
next representative from the Third
district will be named is yet some time
in the future-and there is yet am
pie time wherein the voters may view
the lineup" of all candidates who may
thus aspire to the distinguished hon

pears a unique article with tho above title.
The author has taken as the worlds six
richest men john ID. Rockefeller, Pierponr
Morgan. Astor, Lord Strathcopa, Andrew
Carnegie and Lord Rothsch.ld. He cal
culates that between them they own
Ave thousand million dollars, What might
they do with such a sum IL they COM
bined forces? What things could they not
achieve with 1--WE thousand million dol
lars? Suppose they were aggressive and
inclined 10 wage war. They could put
! 100000 men in the field and maintain
them for 10 years, perhaps for 20. The
American Revolutionary war cost seven
hundred million dollars. The wars with
Napoleon from i79o 10 1916 cost Great Brit
ain three thousand two hundred and nifty
million dollars. The C-!mean war cost
one hundred and fifty million dollars for
two years. The South African war cost
England twelve hundred and fifty million
dollars. The rich sextette could have
borne the costliest OF these wars and
had a good sum over.
If they turned their attention to the sea
they could with half their capital build q
feet that woIld be unique. overrowering,
irresistible. Tho biggest feet In the world
that of Great Brltain-could probably be
duplicated for G. thousand million dollars.
Again these invincible six could give a
an and child In the British Isles. They
could run tho United Kingdom for six
years and longer. pay the total amount OF
us expenses ana remit everything 10 the
taxpayer. They could close the custom
house and allow everyone to send letters
and kilograms free. They could buy up ali
the English railroads with their rolllng
the automobiles In tho world and then
have enough left over 20 purchase the
Panama and Suez canals, and after that
sufficient to buy up the total value Of
negic could persuade his i've friends TO
como In with him on a and deal they
could buy up Scotland, for the assessed
four thousand six hundred and ftty mil
lion dollars. These are q few Of the start.
ling things these six elderly gentlemen
could do with their combined wealth II
they only possessed the requisite Nudacity,
