you. You Rowing eyes touched my
heart very soon. Well, few kissing
matches won't hurt anyone. so you
just kiss me all you want to? Yours
truly, your loving convert-Gerritt."
This letter led the police into an
extensive Investigation into the past
career of Mrs. Clarkson as a mission
airy.
The story of her career seemed to
be dotted with men and boys whose
chief ambition in life was to be con-
,verted at the Clarkson mission.
: The police have been unable to find
any trace of Mrs. GARRISON. They
only know that she left her home for
the second time about two weeks
ago. They do not know whom she
went with, nor why.

"Bill inside"

Bill Smith, a country storekeeper,
went to neighboring town to buy
goods. They were sent Immediately,
reaching home before he did When
Mrs. Smith, who was minding the
shop, examined the boxes, she uttered
a scream, seized a Ratchet, and be-
gan frantically to open. the largest
one. What's the matter, Sarah?"
asked bystander who had watched
her in amazement. Pale and faint,
Mrs. Smith pointed to a label on the
box, which read, Bill inside"

There's too much of chance of
some of these women falling in love
with some suave criminal I'm going
to stop the visits of all these Jail
angels to prisoners.
II want young women to keep
away from this jail. Dangers Turk
heer that they know nothing of. Too
many of them become interested in
male prisoners, and that always leads
to trouble.
After the police had done talking
with, or being talked to by Clark
son and Davies, they tried to find out
something about the case.
And they did not go far without
finding things that did not quite
make Conn measure up as the dash
ing Lothario that Clarkson and Dav-
les pictured him as.
A neighbor of the Clarksons told
the police that Mrs. Clarkson had
been driven to leave her husband.
'tHe didn't support her, she said.
"He allowed her to go hungry. Pm
not surprised she left him. There's
isn't much else they could do"
And when the police began inquir-
ing into Mrs. Clarkson's career as
missionary, they were baffled still
more. 1t was at this stage of the
game they bumped into Mrs. Clark
sons kisses.
The cause of the police lust for
knowledge as to these kisses lay
partly in the following letter, writ
ten to Mrs. Clarkson by ,Gerrit
Knoule, a 16-year-old Kensington
boy.
u noticed the first time you kissed
me ! felt very funny because you
were a married woman and an evan

a dear friend should. And it touched

The Cordele club of the Georgia State
league is already making preparations
for a splendid team for the next sea-
son. E. L. Reagan, of McDonough, who

fere. The season will open on April
Is, it is now thought
The reserve list of the Cordele club
includes Fillingem, Hall aud Wilder,
pitchers; Brazier and Bowden, outfield-
er;s Eubanks, catcher, and Reagan,
manager and infelder Reagan is no~
in touch with several young college
players, whose career in baseball is
very promising, and all of the other
clubs of the league have begun to feel
about for good players.
Since the season will open about the
same time as that of the South Atlantic
league, exhibition games can be secur-
ed with the teams of that league. To
prevent the season running into the
time when the cotton movement begins
the directors at the meeting here re-
Gently practically agreed to close it on
August 10.
The officials of the Cordele club are
pleased with the election of l. ]. Kali

are Of the opinion that as matter
of convenience to himself and to the
league, as we'll as from an economical
standpoint, he should name his secre-
tary and treasurer from that city.

New York Cotton.

New York, Nov. 1.-THE cotton
market was steady this morning, on
private crop estimate of 13,572,OOO
bales, excluding linters, and talk that
the action of the New York revision
committee, at it's meeting on Mon
day, would make deliveries of 10"
grade cotton more difficult.
The cotton market was easier late
in the forenoon under renewal of liqui-
Walton or bear pressure, which may
have been encouraged by the talk o.
labor troubles in New England, and
rumors that a settlement of the rail-
road strike in the southwest would
be followed by increasing receipts

Chicago, Nov 17.-Rain and drouth
in Argentina both served today to lift
wheat values. Weather in the corn belt
was unsettled and there was general

other grain. Provisions Were irregu'
