Florida, Confederate veteran, and
Gen. John II. Mcdowell, OF Tennes-

New York. Both Col. Lloyd and
Gen. Mcdowell brought messages Of
peace and good will.
Gen. King escorted Col Lloyd to
the platform and stood with his arm
around his shoulder as the crowd
cheered It's approval. The Confede-
rate veteran was an old man, with
an empty right sleeve and the dele
gates cheered him heartily.
"Col. Lloyd is a Confederate vete-
ran," said Chairman Beveridge, land
he carries four bullets in his person."
Another cheer greeted this an
nouncement.
Col. Lloyd said in part:
81 come from the far South to
add the loyal voice Of the Southern
Confederacy to the general acclaim.
For forty long years the South has
slumbered. For forty long years the
insidious tongue Of ignorance has
whispered hatred in her dull ear.
For forty ears the pail of prejudice
has hung like a dark cloud over our
fair domain; men Of small minds
have fOstered and augmented hatred
and prejudice, but l come to you to-
day bringing a message of peace and
a message Of friendship, message
of brotherhood. Politicians in both
the Republican and Democratic party
tween the North and South and be-
tween the races living in the South
The Republican party was a factional
party. 1t existed in the South only
for the purpose Of keeping up the
prejudiccs and Observation-Disclosures
between the North and the South,
but the educated and liberal minded
living south Of the Ohio river long
since ceased to carry heartachc and
| ill-feeling because Of the war. For
years they have been eager and will
ing to forget and to forgive, for
years they have patiently awaited
the opportunity to prove their loyal
ty to the flag of the Union. say

SECRETS OF THE UNDERWORLD.
John d. Rockefeller,, Jr., Has secur-
ed Mass of Evidence.

New York. Aug. q y10.-Possibly the
most interesting development in the
many-sided investigation Of the mur-
der OF Gambler Rosenthal and its
surrounding muck Of police graft, Is
the news OF John D. Rockefeller,
Jr.'s inquiry into the lower world
conditions, particularly as to the
white slave traffic. @
While Mr.. Rockefeller and his
agents decline to discuss the matter,
and District Attorney Whitman will
furnish no details, 1t Is generally
credited that through the establish
ment of what purported to be dis
orderly house in the tenderloin,
agents for Mr.. Rockefeller have gath
cred great deal Of valuable mate
rial. Primarily this was to be used
as basis for Legislation aimed to
check the traffic in girls, but co-inci-
dentally it dovetailed with the Ros-
cnthal inquiry, because, 1t Is said,
evidence was obtained showing that
police Inspector was getting 5000
a month from resorts for "protec-
ton"
This data will be at the prosecu-
tors disposal to use along with the
confession of BALD Jack" Rose and
others.
Rockefeller Hired Detectives.
The Rockefeller evidence was col
lccted by Clifford Roe, detective
who was active in the Chicago vice
crusade.
Police Commissioner Waldo SEEM
cd pleased with the news that the
younger Rockefeller had been trying
to get evidence Of police grating.
The commissioner said:
81 hope Mr.. Rockefeller has been
successful in securing evidence which
will enable the department to dis
miss any rascal that may be guilty
Of wrong-doing."
Chief Inspector Edward p. Hughes,
head Of the detective bureau. has
broken down under the strain Of the
Rosenthal case. and is seriously i'll
at his home in Brooklyn Of pleuro-
pneumonia.
Alderman Curran. chairman OF the
special committee OF the board of
aldermen appointed to investigate
police conditions, said to-day that
the committee would call before it
not only gamblers. but the owners
of places where gambling went on.
1--WE intend to reach landlords
who rent out their buildings for ille-
gal purposes" said Mr.. Curran.
"This may hit some whose names
are writ high In what we call social
circles. But If they know to what
purposes their premises are being
used they should be made to testify,
and if they do not they should be
glad to get information upon the
subject
Detective w. J. Burns admitted
to-day that his men have been TAX

THE COTTON RED SPIDER.
EntomoIngistS Give Further Particu-
lars Regarding Pest.

Clemson College, Aug Especial:
this Office the cotton red spider is do
ing considerable damage in many
parts OF the State. Owing to the
number OF calls for assistance in
is impossible for Il man to be sent to
each place.
The cotton red spider is very
small insect, about the size Of a
chicken mite. and Is seen only on
close observation. When plants are
infested the damage is first seen at
the base OF the leaf. The leaf turns
reddish in color, and this gradually
spreads over the entic leaf, which
soon falls off. On examination close
ly the under side Of the infested
leaves the red spider will be found
sucking the sap out Of the leaf A
fine web Is made on the under sur
face of the leaf and beneath this
the spiders lay their eggs, and are
supported while feeding. AS they
have no wings, the spiders must
crawl from plant to plant or be car
ried by some animal, as the horse or
mule while plowing.
AS soon as the damage is noticed,
If it is confined to few plants,
these may be pulled carefully and
burned. Any plants that are pulled
up and then left on the edge Of tho
field will not check the damage, as
the spider will soon crawl to fresh
plants. Where the infcstation covers
too large an area to warrant the
above procedure the plants should be
sprayed at once with potassium sui
phide, using three pounds to 10C
gallons of water 1t Is best even
where a small area Is involved tC
use the above mentioned spray oven
an area extending out at least fifty
feet from the original place OF infes-
tation. In spraying, be sure that the
under sides Of the leaves are covered
rs most OF the insects are found un-
der the leaves.
Tho cotton red spider usually
starts from violetS, Jamison weeds,
or Pokcherry weeds. NiOlcts are
usually the starting points, and
these plants should be examined
frequently and carefully. If the spi-
der is found on them, they should
be sprayed as recommended for the
cotton. The Jamison weed and the
Pokcbcrry weeds should not be al
lowed to grow anywhere near the
cotton fields. AS soon as the cotton
becomes infested the farmer should
see that the above plants are de-
stroyed--not merely pulled up and
left lying on the ground, but burned.
If they are left lying on the ground
the red spider will find its way to
the cotton.
Clean culture. Dy destroying the
weeds, especially those mentioned
above, and deep fall plowing will do
much to check or eradicate this pest
The potassium sulphidc for the
spray can usually be purchased from
drug stores. If they do not have it
they will gladly order it for you from
some Wholesale drug company.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages,
and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh being a constitutional dis
ease, requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
TEN, thereby destroying the founda-
tion of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing it's work. The proprietors have
so much faith in it's curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollars
