Indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 9.-It's all
right to wear slit skirts on the streets
of this city, but take the fervent tip
OF Grant Freeman and don't try TO
wear slit trousers.
Grant was mincing his way down
one of the business streets, wearing
white flannel trousers, slashed to the
knees. The slit disclosed an alluring
length of red silk-shod shank, THAI
showed as much as the gap in Free
mans trousers.

diaphanous skirt, covering her eyes
with her hands.
The one in the slashed skirt point
ed Freeman out to a policeman and
he was arrested. He was slated on a
charge of offending persons on the
street. Freeman thought that it was
an outrage but the police showed
their customary indifference to the
private opinions of prisoners and
held him just the came. The prisoner
is 23 years old, married, the father
o; two children, and his wife, a fash
ionable woman, wears the new slash
ed skirt when on shopping expedi-
lions about the city.

SUMTER FARMERS
selling COTTON
At TOP PRICES
MARKET WAS GOOD TUESDAY
And Farmers Got Highest
Current Prices

Again to II ga cents, the highest
price of the current season, went cot
ton values Tuesday and the discerning
Sumter farmer with the goods on his
wagon at the warehouse door, did
not fail to get next in the way of eff
fecting sales. This price was very
near to thirteen cents, and it looked
mighty good to the man behind the
cotton bale.
The stiff advance in values Tuesday
indicated inabality upon the part Of the
bears to keep down prices. Cotton is
worth the price this season, and that
price is going higher still.
At one time Tuesday the October OPP
ton scared to 1880 cents, but dropped
twenty points ere the end of the ses-
sion. The close was characterized by
sharp rally in prices and gain of
eight points from the low level of the
day. The demand upon the part of
buyers was excellent, and the staple
went at price that thoroughly pleased
the man who made the bale.
New cotton money is in general cir
oulation in Americas now, something
like $35O,O00 having been paid to farm
ers here already.

PLEA FOR THE LARK
He Eats Up Grain, but Pays for 1t b..
killing Destructive Insects
New York Times.)

There are two species of meadow
larks in the United States-one in the
East and the other in the West. They
resemble each other close in plumage
and habits, though differing much in
song, the song of the Western biri
being loud, clear, and melodious, while
that of the Eastern species is feebler
and loses much by comparison.
In many localities the meadow lark
is classed and shot as a game bird
From the farmers standpoint this is a
mistake since its value as an insect
eater is far greater than as an object
of pursuit by the sportsman. Both the
boil weevil, the foe of the cotton
grower, and the alfalfa weevil ars
among the beetles it habitually eats.
Twenty-Five per cent of the diet of this
bird is beetles, half of which are pre-
daceous ground-beetles, accounted
useful insects, and one-fifth are de-
structive weevils. Caterpillars form
II per cent of the food, and are eatel
in every month of the year. Among
these are many cut-worms, and the
well-known army worm. Grasshoppers
are favorite food, and are eaten IN
every month and almost every day.
The vegetable food GA per cent Of the
whole consists of grain and wood
seeds.
Recent studies OF the Western mead
ow lark, reported by H. c. Bryant, OF
the California station of the United
States Department of Agriculture,
show that while this bird may do con
siderable damage in destroying sprout-
ing grain, it also consumes large
quantities of destructive insects, ara
when the benefits are balanced againsr
the injuries "there remains no doubt
that the bird deserves protection and
encouragement. It's value as de
stroyer of injurious insects far exceeds
its detriment as a destroyer of sprout-
ing grain. The value of Western

Blonde MUST DON

Preferably Orange or Blue
Hot Weather Hint

Washington, D. c., Sept. 9.-Blondes
are more susceptible to the heat than
brunettes and should shy at bright
colors, because they are rich in
chemical ether waves" according to
DR.. w. C. Rucker, of the public health
service. The government expert gives
some other hot weather hints in con-
nection with his warning to blondes,
the principal tip being that folk should
quit thinking about the heat Another
hint is to keep still and watch what
you drink
"Avoid the fly as you would an al
der" he said. at is conceived in mi
guilty, born in filth and leads life OF
crime.
"Bathe as often as you want to but
avoid extremes of heat and cold in the
water. After the bath dry yourself
very slowly and use a good quality of
talcum powder to prevent exvoriation
of body surfaces that rub together.
Blondes should avoid sunlight as
much as possible, and when they do
60 out they should wear colored
glasses, hats with orange lining, and
their outside clothes should be white
to reflect the heat rays. Their under
wear should be colored, preferably
orange or blue. This is to protect the
skin" .

]. N. DUCKWORTH
CARRIES COTTON
several YEARS
SELLS when IT SUITS HIM
Has Bales of Three Crops
on Hand Now

AS a rule, farmers in this section
sell their cotton as soon as it is mar
keted, and only in rare instances does
one carry over for year any portion
of his crop, but Mr.. Jere NJ Duck
worth is an exception, and notable
exception to that rule, as evidenced BY
the fact that he oftimes carries over
a good portion of his crop.
This is done for two reasons. First,
he doesn't have to sell it to pay debts
when it is made due to the fact that
he has no debts, and, second, because
he gets busy with other matter, per-
haps,, and forgets to sell all of the cot
ton crop.
At all events he didn't sell all of his
bales of last years crop nor those Of
the year before for that matter, and
upon his fine farm near Americas he
has today several bales from three
crops of cotton. When he has the
leisure, and it suits him to sell the
well-seasoned old bales he will do so,
but not until then.
AS the bales of the 1911 and 1912
crops are worth considerably more in
the Americas market today than at
any tine within the past two years, Mr..
Duckworth has really made money BY
having held them so long. Besides, It
was in keeping with his spirit of indie
pendence to hold his cotton as long as
he wished.
Mr.. Duckworth is Of that type of in
dependent Sumter county farmer who
makes at home all the supplies needed
upon his farm and can afford to be in
dependent in the sale of his cottor
crops.

DEATH CLUTCH

Bloody Hand Told Story Of
Tragedy

When an eastbound Seaboard freight
train reached the Americas yards yes

cry, trainmen made a CHASTITY discov.
cry beneath one of the loaded cars
the blood begrimed hand and arm If
an unknown negro, which had been
severed from the trunk when, ev'-
IDENTIFY, the negro had fallen from his
perch.
The horrible find was reported and
an investigation made by the local
authorities.
Between Americas and Plains other
portions of the body were collected up.
but nothing about it revealed the iden-
tity of the negro. The general suppo-
sition was that he was beating his way
by riding the rods" of the fast freight
and had fallen off, probably while
asleep, after the train had left Plains.
The arm and hand which still clutch
ed in death the rods of the car bore
mute testimony of the tragedy. So firm
ly did the fingers of the dead hand
clutch the iron rod that its hold was
broken with some difficulty.
How Negro Was Killed.
Further investigation yesterday at
ternoon revealed the fact that the ne
gro, whose name is unknown, had been
shot and the dead body placed upon tbs
track some point near Plains, OF
else thrown upon the brake-beam d
car-more likely the later way.
Portions of the dismembered body
were picked up between Americas ant
Plains, distance of several miles.
Following an inquest over the re
fains warrants were sworn OH
against two negroes suspected of hav
ing done the killing and both were ar
rested and brought to the county 1ai
here.
