QUINN SAYS SON
 IS IN ATLANTA Files Answer to Writ of Habeas Corpus of
 Young Wife

In the answer of Edward A. Quinn, Sr., to the writ of habeas corpus issued against him on behalf of Mrs Minnie Quinn, nee Branhanl, for the recovery of her husband filed yesterday afternoon in the circuit court by z. T. Rudulph, at torney for the Quinns, he states he has had nothing to do with the disappearance of his son and prays the court to dismiss the writ, as there is no cause for it's ex- .stence.
 The petition sets forth many things, the Gist Of which follows: Edward A. Quinn, sJr., the missing husband, lis at present living in Atlanta, Ga. at 45 Williams street. apartment No. l; is employed by the General Film company on the third floor of the Rose building, and has been ,n Atlanta ever since September 13 the day after his common law marriage That no force or any unlawful means was used to have him leave his wife, but that he deserted her voluntarily and intends to stay in Atlanta. as he is perfectly sat isfied with his surroundings there"
 The petition further states that 'the common law marriage between Quinn, Jr., and Minnie Branham was without license and against the wishes of their parents that the young people are minors, and further that the common law marriage was not followed by such acts and con duct as would consummate it's validity by law. and therefore the writ of habeas corpus was unlawfully issued by Judge E. c. Crow, causing much distasteful noto- riety to the Quinn family
 The present proceedings grew out of the fact that on September IF Edward Albert Quinn. Jr, and Minnie Branham were married by drawing up a contract before a notary public and each swearing to love each other and to consider them selves hustand and wife. An hour later the young. husband left his wife, fol- lowing Sconversation with his sister. The

WEST VIRGINIA UNIQUE.
Some Interesting Data About the State
 With Two Panhandles.

Allen w. Porterfield, of Bedington, W. Va, calls West Virginia a unique state and backs up his statement with an interesting array of facts He writes as follows:
 West Virginia is the most emi- nently American of all the states since S53 per cent of its entire popu- lation k made up of persons born of American parentage West Virginia is also unique from the congental, nor biological. political. financial, and geographical standpoints. The young est state east of the Mississippi. it is the only state born of it's mother. ana the only one that has been asked to subsidize it's parent
 If the court of courts ever makes up it's mind that West Virginia owes Virginia the sum of $71S25O7. West Virginia will undoubtedly pay it. But that will be unique debt. and since a debt is such a common thing. d unique one will always be looked a. asllew. Then, West Virginia is the most irregular state in the union. With an area of only 24.5S9 square miles. line drawn from Harper s Ferry to KenOva will measure 574 miles. It is the only state wi.h two panhandles.' and that is something, even if it is not much.

Politically. it is the most republi- can of the democratic states. mad the most democratic of the republican States. At present it's two senators and four of it's five congressman are as magnanimous, stOut-hearted demo- crats as ever made propagada. in a large and intelligent way. for the en- during enlightenment of the united nation; out the governor is a repub- lican.
 Financially, it is by all odds the richest of the poor states. and the poorest of the rich states. That is to say. West Virginia, despite its literally enormous wealth in coal, coke gas, oil. and so on, is taxing it's people less for the support of public institutions than any other state in the union but one. Well it doesn't take much men tai arithmetic to see where such things as the state university are coming out, that being the case. And ge- ographically, West Virginia is the most eastern of the western states. the most western of the eastern states. the most northern of the southern states, and the most southern of the northern states There is nothing else like it in the union-this only state born of the civil war"

PARCELS POST IN SOUTH
 AFRICA.

Among the benefits which were conferred on the agricultural com munity by the poStoffice act which recently came into operation was the extension of what is known as the agricultural parcel post throughout the union. The system has been in force in the Transvaal for some time and has yieded a great deal of benefit to various classes. and its extension tD the union is, of course, a de- Cided march forward. bringing in it's train increased facilities to the peo- ple of the transvaal who will be enabled to send parcels by this means t1 any of the provinces and offering facilities which have hitherto not heen enjoyed by the Cape, Free State
 or Natal
 The agricultural parcels post is very comprehensive in ts range. and ractically means the conveyance at
 low rates of anything produced or
 manufactured within the confines of the union. The official description is parcels containing articles produc-
 ed or. if manufactured. produced and manufactured in the Union of South | Africa addressed to any place within
 the same (eXcept Rhodes Drift. Piet-
 ersburg. which receives its cores
 rondence from Tuli. in Rhodesla) 70
 Among the articles which may thus
 he sent are butter. eggs, poultry
 bread. biscuits. yeast. tea, dried
 meats. jam. honey. tobacco. cigarettes,
 dried and bottled fruits. cOnfection-
 cry. plants. seeds and so on. of
 course the success of an institution
 of this kind depends very much on
 the scale of charges
 Many people. no doubt. would like
 to get theri butter. meat and poultry
 direct from the producer. For eX- ample. in Cap Town one of the great drawbacks to direct dealing with the farmer has been the cost and trou- ble of getting produce conveyed from him. but under the agricultural parcel post, at any rate there should not be any difficulty on that score. for parcel up to eleven pounds in weight will be carried to any part of the union for 24 cents The scale of postage is as follows: Up to 1h pounds. 6 cents: over 1L pounds and I ot more than pounds. r cents: up to 6 pounds, Is cents; up to pounds. 20 cents: up to II pounds. A cents.
 In order to prevent fraud. the au- thorities require that a declaration shall be signed by the senders Re- turned empties may also he sent by this system. The original declaration label must be attached, indorsed Re turned empty" and the empty parcels must be addressed to the person who signed the declaration. The eXpeT- mntie is one that should do much to bring the producer and consumer in closer touch and its operation will be watched with the greatest interest Daily South Africa

OIL CONSUMPTION

The increased consumption of cot tonseed oil in the United States. as well as the large exportations to for eign countries, is largely the result of the rapid extension of the industrial and other uses to which il is applied both in this and other countries Cot tOnseed oil, which has now come to be recognized as q cheap yet wholesome article of food. is la-Selv used in the manufacture of lard compounds, but terine and other substitutes for but ter. in the packing and preserving of fish. in making salad oils and in the manufacture of the so-called olive oil of commerce. The crude oil is Valu- able as soap stock, yielding, when treated with certain alkalis, soap, washing powder. glycerin. etc. Among it's miscellaneous applications may be mentioned it's use in medicine. in the preparation of cosmetics. liniments and emulsions, in mines as an Illuminating oil for miners lamps, for tempering edged tools, for mixing with putty and for rough painting.
 The following table, prepared by the bureau of statistics, department of commerce and labor. shows the quan- tity and value of cottonseed oil ex- ported from the United States at quin -quennial years from 1885 to 1910 and in the year 1911. The average eX- port value has ranged from about 4 cents to 7Hs cents per pound. dropping to less than cents per pound in 1895 and 1905:
