JAPAN and CHINA SEEK
COTTON IN UNITED STATES

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 25.-Japa-
nese and Chimes manufacturers are
buying cotton here as never before and
the quantity they seem willing to pur-
chase is measured only by the amount
of vessel spa they can engage. Their
mills are reported running to capacity.
The price they pay is eight cents per
pound, while it is estimated it costs
between 3-S and 9 SO cents per pound
to produce cotton. Germany is under
stood to be bidding from IS to 20 cents
with practically no orders being filled
and her own stock near the vanishing
point.
Cotton acreage in California only
recently has been developed and it is
generally believed it will be reduced

CHICAGO, Nov. 25.-Twelve deaths
are the toll football has taken in the
United States so far this season, ac-
cording to record kept by a statisti-
clan. Only two were college men. One
of these died of heart disease anud the
other from injuries received in a class
contest. The others were members of
high school, preparatory or freelance
teams. None were more than 20 years
of age and tackling was responsible for
the greatest number of the fatalities.
Two deaths were recorded in the south,
Ray Allen, 10, of the Stanley High
school, Sapulpa, Okla, was tackled in
a game Oct. 8, and died 35 minutes
after being thrown.
T. S. Brown, Knoxville, Tenn, a
Sewanee University player, died on the
field Oct. 8, in a scrimmage. Organic
heart trouble was said to be the cause
of death.

those of all years since 1900 except

MAY ELIMINATE
TRAIN SERVICE
WEST AMEh|CUS
SUCH DESIRE OF SEABOARD-TO
OPERATE NIGHT TRAINS ONLY
TO AMERICUS.

Mr.. c. w. Small, division passenger
agent of the Seaboard Air Line, was
in Americas today upon business rela-
tive to the proposed discontinuance
of the night passenger train service on
the Seaboard, west of Americas, due
to the very heavy falling off of freight
and passenger traffic and the conse-
quent absolute necessity Of retrench-
ment of expenditures upon the part
of the railway company.
ar. Small discussed the subject with
ksiness men here and impressed them
It'll the necessity of the step proposed
his company.
Quite recently the Alabama railroad
commission readily consented to allow
the Seaboard to discontinue for the
present the night trains, Numbers IL
and IA, in that state, operating these
schedules only between Savannah and
Omaha, on the Chattahoochee river.
The Seaboard now desires permission
for the Georgia railway commission to
operate said trains only between Sa-
vannah and Americas.
Mr.. Small declares that these trains
are now being operated at daily
heavy loss to the company, which fact
is quite apparent to people along the
line as well. The Seaboard will ask
of the railway commission that the
service be confined between Americas
and Richland and Columbus.
Application to this end will be heard
before the railway commission on De-
cember 9th.

Death Route for Messenger.

Rene Granger, a lad of Is, enlisted
in the first days of the mobilization,
and after a short period of training
joined a regiment in Lorraine. In
few weeks his carriage and intelli-
gence had gained him the rank of cor

soldier who should volunteer to carry
the orders of the staff to the different
companies. He did not conceal the
fact that the mission was one of great
danger. Corporal Granger volunteered
He listened attentively to the colonels
instructions. Then with a quiet "C'est
bien," went on his mission.
He reached the frs trench in safety
and gave his message. The next stage
of his journey was a dangerous one, for
he had to pass over an open space OF
300 yards, swept by the enemy's fire
He went down on his hands and knees
and crawled, only lifting his head in
order to see his way. Within a few
yards of the trenches bullet struck
him in the thigh. He crept behind g
tree, hastily dressed his wound, ther
dragged himself to the trench, where
he delivered his message to the com
