lighted Members and Friends

number was a boys story, The Tie
Fraternal, which was written by Mrs.
Florence A. Bunce and read by Mrs.
Bunce for the first time In public.
Mrs, c. f. Amidon also read an orig
inal story, A Good Woman, which was
very interesting. The president OF the
club. Mrs. Frank Thompson. read a.
chapter from a novel which is in the
construction and which will he known
from its leading character, Jane Es-
mond. Miss Perley of Fargo college
read two delightful stories and one
poem which she has written and
which received hearty applause. Mrs.

talent and concluded with the words
OF q Song to Dakota.
Mrs. e. r. Wright sang beautifully
two songs, Wanderlust n The Boat

of Mrs. Young and the music original
with Mrs. Wright. These were excep-
tionally pleasing. The programme was

All who were present pronounced

selections brought forth much praise.

WHY SO MUCH
Stir over A
LITTLE $lOO BILL

Atlanta. Dec S.-Real money instead
of stage money is to be used in the
detective drama THE Argyll Case
in which MIR. Robert Hillard will ap-
pear at the Atlanta theatre this week
A sure-enough $10O bill is part OF
the stage property, and it is guarded
as carefully as the Mona Lisa was be-
fore it was stolen from the Louvre
This is what happens to the yellow
back during its nightly travels Just
before the rise of the curtain the as
sistant stage manager goes to Mr.. Hill
lard's hotel, where the cashier I'M
locks the safe and delivers the bill
enclosed in a wax-sealed Manila en-
velope. This is taken to the stars
dressing room and given to Mr.. Hill
lard, who opens the envelope, assures
himself of the identity of the bill and
sends it by his valet to the stage man.
ager The latter entrusts it to the
chief property man, who puts 1t in &
long white envelope. This envelope -
placed in a desk drawer in the library
of the late John Argyll, and carefully
watched by an assistant until the play
b gins, when the bill is found by Mr.
Hilliard as Detective Kayton.

JOY RIDING IN SAVANNAH
VISITOR is GIVEN TOUCH

Savannah, Ga, Dec. Son the COM
plant of J. S. Washington, farmer
who lives near Macon, two young
white men, Claude Frazier and Don
aldson Wise, were arrested by the
county police Yesterday on a charge
OF robbing Washington by force. At
the police station both men denied the
charge.
The robbery is alleged to have oc-
Cured in a house near Dale avenue
early yesterday morning when the
stranger was thrown across a table
and held by a crowd OF white chau,-
feurs while one of them went through
dis pockets and secured the money.
This is Washingtons charge.
In making report Of the robbery
to the county police, Washington SAID
he had been invited out to take All
automobile ride with a party of young
white men. During the evening they
stopped at several road houses. While
in rear room in one of the houses
he said, his hosts grabbed him and
took all the money he had, amount
ing to $3.50, and fed, leaving him t
find his way to Savannah alone.
The man said he recovered and
finding himself without funds, started
on to Savannah Thinking he had
walked long enough to have reache
the city, he inquired how far he was
from Savannah and was told insteai
of walking towards the city he wa7
going toward Thunderbolt.

ADVANCE
AFTER GINNERS
ESTIMATE KNOWN
NOT AS LARGE AS EXPECTED
Week viii Be Important One
to Trade
Week viii Re ImDOrtaDt One

In Americas cotton circles the gov
eminent ginners report, given out yes
terday, was awaited with more inter
est, perhaps, than any like report this
season, as it more clearly evidenced
the size Of the cotton crop, now that
picking is very nearly over with in
the entire belt The report given out
yesterday was cotton ginned to De-
cember LIST and showed a total of
12,0S1,000 bales ginned to that date
These figures compared with H.
S54,540 bales ginned to December Isl
last season, and were about as ex-
pected The market was affected but
little, the report being followed by d
brief decline IN futures and almost
immediate rally.
This promises to be one of the most
important weeks of the season in the
cotton market The big event will be
the estimate of the total yield by the
department of agriculture issued at
o'clock, central time, Friday after
noon
1t is difficult to say what the con-
sensus Of opinion is in regard to
Fridays report, because there is sucl
wide variance of opinion in regard to
the crop. From the largest to thu
smallest of the private estimates thera
is a difference of two million bales.
1t is set down that opinion has never
been so divided on the crop as it is
this year.
A look at the private estimates,
however, shows that the majority are
between 100000 and 14,500,OOO bales
The average of opinion seems to be
around 14,3O0,OOO bales.
1t is probable that an estimate OF
100000 bales or under would cause
a strong advance, while figures of over
l4,500,000 bales would cause a decline.
Anything up to 14,250,00O bales prob
ably would be considered bullish, al.
though such figures might not cause
and advance, because of the trading
public's belief in the tendency of the
agricultural department to underesti-
nate the crop.
