Arrest of Harry Hodapp> Reveals
Career Like Dime Novel
Characters.

NEW YORK. Oct. 10.-Through a
woman's jealousy, Harry w. Hodapp,
of Bayonne, \. j., is in the Tombs to-
day on a charge of having embezzled
$1,000 from the Geffe & Gardener
Company, of st. Louis, Mo-, in Febru-
airy, 1910. A letter found by the
woman from another woman after
Hodapp had left their Bayonne
home, following dispute be-
tween the two, caused her to notify
detectives employed by the American
Surety Company, who have been on
Hodapp's trail since his disappear
ance, three years ago. A decoy letter
sent to Hodapp at the general de-
livery window of the postoffice was
the final link in the story of the long
search.
Arraigned before Magistrate Shulz
in the Tombs Police Court, Hodapp
said he was willing to return to St.
Louis, and was remanded to the
Tombs pending the arrival of extra
dition papers.
The story of Hodapp's wanderings
reads like a page from one of Nick
Carter "thrillers." At the time of
his disappearance he was bonded for
$4,000 by the American Surety Com
pany. It was through B. ]. McGinn,
superintendent of the claim depart
ment of that company, that Hodapp
told the whole story.
Before leaving st. Louis, according
to Mr.. McGinn. Hodapp gave to a
tramp an expensive black paddock
coat, black derby hat, with his mi
tials and his amethyst scarfpin, in
the hope that the tramp would be ar
rested by the police who were look
ing for the missing bookkeeper
Hodapp hoped by this means, it is
said, to escape attention temporarily,
so that he might have more time to
make an effectual escape. For some
time he is said to haves watched the
Fest of the tramp.
Since he left st. Louis Hodapp has
travelled in this country and Canada,
obtaining employment under the alias
of Arthur Charles Rodgers. Imme-
diately after leaving ST. Louis
Hodapp went to Chicago, H., where
he is said to have become acquainted
with a woman from Montreal, Can
ada. To her Hodapp, it is alleged,
confided his secret, and she, it is said,
accompanied Hodapp in his travel
ings about the country They first
came to New York, whence they went
to Montreal in February last. Coming
hack to New York the following May,
they went in succession to Montreal.
Vancouver, B. c.. Seattle, Wash, and
back to New York again.

TO OPEN
CAMP A|GN HERE
Republican Candidate for Gov
ernor to Speak in Kruger
Auditorium Tonight.

Former Governor Edward Casper
Stokes will launch his gubernatorial
campaign in Northern New Jersey
with mass-meeting tonight in the
Kruger Auditorium, at which he will
be the principal speaker Senator
William e. Borah, of Idaho, who was
expected to make an address, will
probably be detained in Washington
on his official duties.
Former State Senator John
D. Prince, of Passaic, will
speak in the absence of Sen
ator Borah. The meeting will be
called to order by Republican County
Chairman Herbert w. Taylor, who
will introduce Arthur B. Leach, the
presiding officer.
1t is understood that Mr.. Stokes, in
his addresses, will declare himself to
be the candidate of the people. as
shown by his overwhelming majority
over all the other candidates of his
party at the primaries, and will dwell
upon the necessity of infusing young
blood into the party, in order to give
the rising generation better chance
to take an active part in the shaping
OF its policies and in the general politi-
cal activities of the day. He may also
level broadside at some of his re-
cent critics.
Indications are there will be a
good attendance at the meeting. A
member of the wards will send their
representations of Republican voters
in a body, including the Sixteenth,
which will march down headed by a
band.
Music will be furnished at the Au-
ditorium by a band of fifteen pieces.
The meeting is called for 8 p. m.
There will be no reserved seats.
It was announced last night at the
State headquarters in the Kinney
building that as the time at the dis
posal of the candidate is too brief
to let him cover the State as
thoroughly as he would like, his ap-
pearances on the platform will prob
ably be confined to the larger cities
and the county seats.
Mr.. Stokes will arrive here in the
afternoon and will attend a State
committee conference in the Kinney
building 1t Is stated at headquar-
tiers that so many requests have been
received for him to appear at differ
ent places that his itinerary will have
to be worked out more in detail in
order to avoid conflicting dates. Ac-
cording to present plans, he is to APP
pear again twice in Essex County
before the close of the campaign.
Following the big meeting tonight
the county and city candidates will
get together to arrange for their
campaign

LIME AS A FERTILIZER.

From the neighboring county Of
Sumter comes the word that lime
is being freely used there as a fer
tilizer, both on account Of its efTec-
tiveness and on account Of its cheap
ness, This will be Of interest to
Lee county farmers, who have a
good supply Of lime in their soil in
many, il not most, sections OF the
county.
The use Of lime as a fertilizer has
long been known to be good one.
But it has been supposed that lime
has been found in the soil in suf-
ficient quantities such as are deman-
ded forvarious crops. The recent ex-
periments tend to show that this is
not true.
There is a great deal Of lime in
the soil Of Lee county. The presence
in this county Of lime kilns show
that conclusiyely. Limestone strata
abound in this county It is found
here very much more abundantly
probably than in Sumter county Il
may be that there is sufficient lime
in most Of our soil to supply The
needs Of the crops we grow.
1t is worth while for the farmer.
Of Lee county,, however, to investi
gate the experiments that are being
made in Sumter county and else
where in the use Of lime for ferti.

Il Pays To Advertise
TRY II And Be Convinced

The merchant who conducts his
business on the theory that it does
Mt pay, and he can t afford to adj
yertise, sets up his Judgment in OPP
position to all the best business men
in the world With a few years ex-
perience in conducting a small BUSH
ness on a few hundred dollars Of
capital, he assumes to know more
more than thousands Of business
men whose hoully transactions ag-
gregath more than his do in a year,
and who have made their millions
by pursuing a course that he says
does not pay
Such talk in the year 1918 may
we'll be considered ridiculous, and
it requires more than the average
patience to discuss the proposition
Of whether advertising pays or not.
His complacent self-conceit in
assuming that he knows more than
he whole business world is laugh
able, and reminds one Of the man
who proved the world doesn't re-
volye by placing a pumpkin on a
stump and Watching it all night,
/ basing his calculations on the result.
If ADVERTISING DOESN'T
PAY, why is it that the most sue
cessful business men believe in it?

a DRAIN UPON THE COUNTY.


Probably but very few if any OF
her counties in Georgia suffer as
much as does Lee county nthe way
Of having its profits, Of rather q
large part Of the profits made upon
its lands, taken from the county To
Be speut il other counties 81 the
state It Il estimated that tie pro-
fits from fully half Of the land in
tile county are spent outside 81 the
county.
This is a heavy drain upon the
county, one which is probably doing
more than anything elseto keep lee
county behind in the march Of pro-
gress. No county can make more
than a very slow and unsatisfactory
growth under these circumstances,
for its very life blood, as it were, il
being drained ont Of the county 10 be
spent elsewhere by people who feel
so slightly interested in Lee county
that they do not come here to live
and do net intend to come here
to live.
In bringing this matter to the at
tention Of the people Of Lee county
The Journal is not attempting to
bring into i'll repute any foreign
land holders except those who have
enormous holdings in this county
and who are hindering, and vitality
! hindering, the growth Of the county.
| There is no county III the state that
does not have property holders that
live without its borders. What is
meant, however, is the property
holder who controls enormous tracts
Of land, which are lily tended and
which return to the owner about
one half Of what they should bring.
Then this small amount Of profit is
spent outside Of Lee county.
Can a more thoroughly demora-
iizing state IF affaias be imagined?
This is the leach that is draining
the very life blood Of Lee county,
1t is a condition that cries aloud for
q remedy and aspeedy and complete
cure. These conditions. are tending
to demoralize the farmers Of the
county who own land adjacent to
these lily tended tracts. The con-
ditions are such that they bring no
good either to the owners Of these
lands or to the people Of Lee
county. Some remedy should be
found and found speedily. The pub
lie minded citizens Of Lee county
can do good in seeking solution Q.

well for all concerned.
