BANK SUES BANKS COUNTY
WARRANTS FOR MONEY BOR-
ROWED MAY NOT BE PAID.
An Interesting Lawsuit That May
Stop a Common Custom Filed in
North Georgia County.

The Northeastern Banking Com
pany of Commerce. Ga, has filed suit
against Banks county in the sum of
$7,9S6.05 on II warrants drawn by
the ordinary upon the county treas
urer.
These warrants were duly issued
and drawn by the ordinary of Banks
county on the treasurer for current
expenses of the county for the year
1912, being the year in which they
were issued.
The warrants, II in all, were
drawn in favor of almost as many
parties, and were purchased at face
value by the Northeastern bank.
Copies of the warrants and the en-
dorsements and entries thereon are
attached to the petition.
The petition alleges that the pay
ment of these warrants was de-
manded on Nov. 8th, 1912, by said
bank and the treasurer of Banks
county refused payment. Again on
December 31st, 1912, said warrants
were presented for payment and pay
ment of same refused.
The question at issue is, can a
county borrow money or levy taxes
to pay debts that matured or will
mature in another year?

PENALTY OF S1.OO A BALE
is FACING THE COTTON GROW
ERS OF SOUTHERN STATES.
Will Be Assessed Against Every Bale
of Cotton Not Conforming to
Prescribed Standard.

Prescribed Standard.
The Atlanta Constitution prints a
special dispatch from Washington
that materially concerns every cot
ton grower. 1t relates to the stand
ardization of Gotten bales and gives
these important facts relative there
to-
A penalty of 81 bale on each
bale of cotton which does not con-
form to the standard p by "a inch
size will be assessed by the railroad
and steamship companies.
Notice of this penalty was given
six months ago, and hearings have
been held by the house committee
on Interstate and foreign commerce,
of which Representative Adamson of
Georgia is chairman, with the view
of securing an agreement among all
parties as to the size and density of
cotton bales
Despite all this advertising some
persons only woke up today to the
fact that the penalty would be exact
ed. congressman from cotton grow
ing states were urged by telegraph
to take the matter up with the sec
rotary of agriculture and the inter
state commerce commission to see if
something could not be done to avert
this penalty.
After looking into the matter fur
Their several senators who originally
agreed to join the delegation chang
ed their minds. They believe the
uniform bale is a good thing. They
say it is a comparatively simple mat
ter for ginners to change their gin
boxes to conform to the new regula-
lions; that the ginners had ample
notice and could have easily met the
requirements of the transportation
companies. A great many ginners
did so, but those who didn't will
cause a loss to the farmers on the
bale ginned and baled in the good
old way of 81 a bale. ?

A REAL RIP VAN Wrinkle
WAS MYSTERIOUSLY ABSENT
NEARLY HALF A CENTURY.
Man Who Was Missing 46 Years Re-

JACKSON, Mich.-In cOmfOrta-
Bile little home just east of here Or
son Howard, So, a Rip Van Wrinkle
of real life, is writing the story of
his forty years mysterious absence
from his family Slowly, laborious-
". he has transcribed scores Of pages,
which each night he locks in heavy
chest. He will let no one see what
he has written. He does not know
his wife. but calls her aunt" Nor
does he recognize his two sons, be-
lieving them cousins. Thus they have
lived for three years, or since he
was reunited to them following that
mysterious disappearance.
Lived at LapOrte.
Nearly forty-six years ago they re-
sided in Laporte, Ind. They had
been married four years. Howard
shouldered a shot gun one morning
and told his wife that he was going

was a husband of fine habits and fine
repute. When he did not appear
next morning Mrs. Howard spread
the alarm. A thorough search fail
ed to uncover a trace of Howard.
He had been young and light-heart-
ed when he dropped out of sight, but
when he returned he was bent,
white-haired and crippled with age.
Relatives in the West set Mrs, How
ard on his trail three years ago, and
he was found in Dodge City, Kan.
In the meantime the Towards, moth

The Reunion.
1t was a strange reunion. How
ard was unable to remember Mrs.
Howard as his wife. But he remem-
bered Laporte, and was able to tell
of his wanderings. From this and
from fragments of his speech he
drops as he sits and dreams day by
day the family have been able to
piece together some of his history.

Being who rules over the destinies
