Favorable News From Washing
ton That There VIII Be No
Legislation to Wipe Out Deal
ings in Futures Gives Impetus.

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-Cotton
broke through into new high ground
again during to-day's short session of
the exchange.
September, which is about to
expire, closed at 1416 and October
closed at 14.05. These are the high
est prices since 1910.
This represented an advance of 13
points over Fridays close for Sep
TENDER and of II points for October.
Other months followed.
For the movement, the advance has
h1en from SO to $40 per bale.
Georgia Wins Big Sum.
Georgia, heading the Southeastern
Sktes, stands to win S25,0O0,O0O by a
advance in the price of middTing
sfce September l. The bulge is
caused by crop damage in the West
ern and Central belts. The Eastern
crop is good, and these States are due
to reap immense profits on large
yields and high prices.
When the market closed September
/, September options stood at 1911
and October options at 1927. Next
day the Governments sensational con-
dition report was issued, and the mar
ket responded to the unfavorable It'd
ings from the fields with a 70point
advance.
The bulls have been in command
ever since, and September, during the
time it has been the spot month, has
advanced 1919 points; october, 17S
points. Each point represents cents
a bale.
News Gives Impetus.
The particular price impetus yes
terday and to-day was the favorable
news from Washington, where de-
velopments seem to indicate that no
radical action will be taken against
the cotton exchanges.
The inherent strength of cotton val
ues, with news from the Western belt
uniformly discouraging, has been real
lied by the trade for some time, but
the fear of legislation by Congress
which would wipe out futures trad
ing, prevented any attempt at bull
campaign and kept business at low
lerel.

"sATANe is COMING TO THE
COLUMBIA NEXT THURSDAY

(From the Indianapolis Starr
People who like the best to be had
in moving pictures were not disap-
pointed in seeing the big feature pro-
duction, Satan, or The Drama of HUI
manity, at the Park Theatre this
week. The picture is excellent in
Photographic art, with clearness of
detail, picturesque handling and
grouping of characters, with COM
mend dramatis illustration of the
story, and so simple that child can
understand. Some might think by
the title that the picture would be
wearisOme or gruesome, but it is not.
1t tells a story from the beginning of
time up to the present day, showing
the workings of the evil spirit in the
people, and all who listen to his hon
eyed words and promisie come to de-
spair and destruction. Step by step
the story winds it's way from the time
Satan did battle with God and was
cast from Heaven through all ages up
to our modern times Mario, the
gentleman who jlays Satan, the lead
| ing part, wrote the scenario of the
story and is the director of the com
pany ,and is most remarkable for a
moving picture actor. His acting is
perfect and interesting at all times,
and one never becomes tired of his
ever prominence in the picture. AS
spectacular, the picture is grand; as
a story, it will hold your strict atten
tion throughout, while many thrills
and climaXes are in the play. 1t
teaches a great lesson and better
sermon would be hard to find in NOV
| ing pictures. The fourth act takes
on the coloring of modern times Of
today. Satan prompts wealthy iron
master to steal the sweetheart of one
of the workingmen. This purloining
of Grace leads to the murder of the
ironmaster and afterward a strike
among his employees. A pursuit OF
the assassin, bombardment of his
stronghold, an explosion, and whole
sale destruction, with the spirit o.
Satan fading into the ruins. Light
ing cigarette, he gloats over hi:
evil work.
This great picture will be present
ed at the Columbia Theatre on mex
Thursday, Sept 25. Admission, 10'

save them thousands of dollars. Mr..
Ellis says instead of cutting the to-
bacco because the bottom leaves are
firing that these leaves be pulled off
and saved, thus allowing the top
leaves to ripen fully before the cut
ting is done. Mr.. Ellis has been
over North and South Carolina and
claims that it is practice there that
has never been used in Kentucky, and
will save the growers here many dol
lars. He says the best time to gather
these leaves is in the morning when
