WOULD KEEP THEM OUT
GEORGIA TROOPS REFUSED 4
PERMIT THROUGH STATE.
Governor Refuses to Countersign Or
der Allowing Militia Of Neighbor-
ing State on South Carolina Soil.

Differences existing between Gov
Blease and the war department are
responsible for the governors refusa
to allow the State troops OF Georgia
and North Carolina to pass through
South Carolina to the proposed JONI
encampment in Augusta, Ca, mex
month.
Adjt. Gen. Nash of the Georgia Ma
tional Guard, made public a letter
from Adit. Gen. Moore Of the South
Carolina National Guard, which said
that the ban would not be removed
until the issues between Gov. Blease
and Secretary of War Garrison hao
been settled.
The war department recently with
drew an invitation to the South Car
olina militia to participate in the en-
campment because they did not meet
the requirements of the Dick militia
law in the matter Of equipment and
number of. enlisted men in the va
rious grade.
Trouble had previously arisen be-
tween the governor and the secre-
tary of war over the location OF the
proposed encampment on the Isle OF
Palms. Secretary Garrison finally
peremptorily transferred the camp to
Augusta.
Referring to the fact that Gov
Blease has declined permission to a
company Of Georgia militia to pass
through the State Of South Carolina
via Blackville to the joint militia en-
campment at Augusta next month,
Adjt. Gen. Moore gave out the fol-
lowing information Wednesday when
interviewed at his office:
at has never been considered nee
essary," said Gen. Moore, to obtain
permission from one State to move
militia Of another State through its
territory when the foreign militia
are moving under orders from the
war department of the United States.
State militia then assumes the ma
ture Of Federal troops. Therefore,
the request for permission to move
the Georgia Hussars through South
Carolina, which was made by Adjt.
Gen. Nash of Georgia, on June 80,
was unnecessary in this instance, al
though proper to any militia move
ment other than one under Federal
orders"
The Georgia request was submitted
together with other orders by the ad-
jutant general of South Carolina TO
Gov. Blease by Special Order No. At,
A. G. O., July 6, for the governor to
affix his signature. Gov. Blease de-
clined, however, to sign any OF the
submitted orders, with the statement
to the effect that he would sign no
further orders with regard to mill
tary affairs until the mudd!e between
this State and the war department
has been Strengthened out.

WHOLE FAMILY SLAIN
Four Killed at Chicago BY Blows
From an Axe.

From an Axe.
A family Of four was wiped out by
blows from an axe in their home in
the German settlement Of Blue Island
a surburb Of Chicago Sunday night.
The victims were Joseph Neslesla, a
German laborer, aged 50, his wife,
their daughter, aged25, and the lat
ter's infant child. The stiffened bod
les and the blood stained axe alone
remained to outline the story when
the crime was discovered by neigh
bors.
The young mother of the infant
had been living away from her hus-
band for some time and efforts to
find him were begun. There was
nothing in the house to show his
name. The murderer, according to
BENJAMIN Knirsch, chief Of police of
Blue Island, proceeded with real de-
Each swing of the axe
apparently carried death with it
death without even a groan to arouse
others sleeping in the house. Each
of the slain was struck in the head.

PRODUCE FINER STRAINS
CAROLINA COTTON EQUALS DEL
TAs OF EQUAL LENGTH.
Demonstrated by Expert That Staple
Grown in Southeast is Less
s'Wasty That Deltats.

That strains of cotton are being
produced to-day by the best breeders
| in the Carolinas which are fully
equal to the average Deltas of the
same length, in almost every respect
has been demonstrated to the salts
faction of experts in the United
States department of agriculture.
Since the ravages of the boil weevil
had practically put an end to the pro-
duction Of long-staple cottons in the
region which had formerly been the
principal source of their supply, the
spinners besought the department OF
agriculture about three years ago to
assist in an effort to maintain the
staple industry in the Mississippi
delta.
It was already known by the de-
partment that excellent upland cot
tons Of 1-4-inch staple could be pro-
duced on the Atlantic slope, but the
spinners maintained that tae Caro-
lima upland had been unsatisfactory
to use.
Investigation indicated that this
this was because Of lack Of under
standing of the proper methods to be
used with the seed and at the gin.
Some Of the best Carolina breeders,
however. were developing high grade
strains of the Columbia variety and
were finding ready sale at satisfactory
prices for their products to the few
spinners who understood the true
character and value of these cottons.
It devoted upon the department,
therefore, to determine as accurately
as possible how the best strains of
the new varieties of upland staple
anG. Delta blended cottons actually
compared in spinning value with
Delta cottons. Accordingly series
of spinning tests was made in cooper
alton with the New Bedford Textile
school, New Bedford; Mass, on five
bales representing four different
varieties or strains grown in three
entirely distinct regions Of produc-
ton.
These tests showed that careful
breeders in the Carolinas are Droduc-
ing cotton fully equal in almost every
respect to the average Deltas Of the
same length. Contrary to the pre-
vailing opinion they showed that sew
eral strains now grown in CONNER
cial quantities in the southeast are
less "wasty" than average Deltas,
although they are not so strong.
These varieties have the added ad-
vantage of being earlier, of bearing
larger bolls and of being more pro-
life than Delta types.
Full descriptions Of these tests,
with tables showing varieties in
grade and staple, invisible loss, rela-
tion of grade to waste, comparisons
at the comber, value Of waste diff
ferences, tests of breaking strength,
etc., are presented in Bulletin No.
121 recently issued by the depart
ment.
Since the 1913 crop in the Delta
suffered little from the weevil, and
since many spinners still retain a
prejudice against upland staples. a
serious situation now confronts the
growers of these cottons. For this
reason all growers and spinners
should be interested in the results Of
these tests as set forth in this bull
letin, which may be obtained free, as
long as the supply lasts, by applica-
ton to the department.

LAUREATE AMONG SMOKERS.
German Business Man Keeps Cigar
Over Two Hours.

The latest and most novel worlds s
record was achieved few days ago
in Berlin, Germany, where a congress
of smokers offered a silver eagle to
the smoker who took the longest
time to turn a cigar into ashes with
out letting it go out single time.
Two hundred competitors entered. In
one hour all but twenty had laid
their cigars to rest in the ash tray.
The rivals dropped out rapidly.
After two hours only one smoker mas
left. Herr HEM, Sachsenhausen
business man, who actually pufted
away in peace until he perforce had
to throw his diminutive cigar stump
away two hours, 46 minutes and II
seconds after he had set light to it.
Herr HEM has therefore been pro-
claimed smoker laureate.

 Then the young man began to won der if he was booked for a siege with the disease, too. He called on a phy- sician to ask about it. The doctor heard the young mans story. Well" he said, T think your chances to catch the disease de1ended on how you bid her goodnight"
 He went out. A minute later he stuck his head in the door. Say, Doc." he said, looking worried, ton silitis doesn't go very hard with a strong. healthy young man, does it?"
