patches from Picking and Toxic con
corning tho Japanese demands on
China attracted much interest here to
dsv, but officials Of the United States
government and diplomats at the Jap
anese and other embassies would not
discuss them in any way.
The United States government has
been kept in close touch with devel-
opments, along with Great Britain,
France and Russia. through the embas-
sizes and legations in Europe, as well
as at Toxic and Picking. Secretary
BRYAN and Ambassador Chinda are
understood to have discussed the sit
uation informally.
The understanding. from the best
informed sources, is that the Japanese
demands. as revealed TO the powers
relate to certain localities and do no.
concern China as whole, ahcctihg
only sections of Shsrtung. Southern
Manchuria and Inner Mongolia.
The recent statement given TO the
press by the Toxic Foreign once had
also been communicated to the
powers. Briefly, it assured them that
nothing in the japanese demands IN

Of China or the principle of equal OPP

THIS YEAR

Americas has the honor today Of
having received the second cotton bale
of the new crop, 1915, to be marketed
in Georgia, the first bale having been

south Georgia. The bale received here
today was grown by Messrs. w. NJ.

county plantation near DeSoto. 1t
weighed $50 pounds and classed fully
middling, a grade that will bring the
topmost price Manager Charles Burke
of the Oliver warehouse will sell this
first bale this afternoon, probably
shipping it to Savannah or Augusta
This bale is slightly in advance OF
Americas first bale last season, ami
is the forerunner of other FIRST

DUST WORRIES
RESIDENTS Of
AMER|CUS NOW
AND LOUD CALLS MADE FOR
WATER WAGON

With parching drouth prevailing,
the dust problem is again a disturbing
element, and residents of the city, par
ticularly along the unpaved streets like
Lee, Church and Taylor, are calling
loudly for the water wagon. Powdery
red clay dust is stirred by every pass
ing car or wagon, and the situation
really is distressing. AS the city has
an abundant water supply and n
sprinkler handy for the purpose, the
dust-covered citizen wonders why
some relief is not afforded by the au-
thorities. Even a thorough wetting
of the streets at important corners
would afford some measure of relief
to distressed ones

photo play presented by Dorothy Dom
nelly, the creator of Madame X" in
Henri Bernstein's greatest play, as
produced by Daniel Frohman.
Dorothy Donnelly, creator of the til
tie part in Madame X" and Americas
favorite young tragedienne is pecul-
iarly fitted both by nature and temper
ament to play the difficult leading role
in. THE Thief"
Her work as the original Madame
X" gave her first place among emo
tional actresses, and in the present
production she has surpassed all her
previous efforts. Richard BUTLER and
an all-star cast give excellent support
to Miss Donnelly.
The Thief" was staged at the Will
liam Fox studios under the direction
of Edgar Lewis.
Some conception of the elaborate
ness Of the production may be gained
from the fact that the gowns worn by
the star are valued at more than $4,000
and were selected from the products
of leading modistes in New York, Lon
don and Paris. The gowns in them
selves are a special treat.
On account of the length of the show

UNCLE SAM INTERESTED
IN SAVING MEMS LIVES; g
NOT IN DESTROYING THEM
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 81
While hundreds of thousands of wnen
are being slaughtered in the great
European war, and when the ingenuity
of man in foreign countries is taxed to
the utmost to devise yet more fright
full engines for killing men, it is in
striking contrast that the United
States government announces through
the bureau of mines that preparations
are being made to hold in San Fran
cisco a great national demonstration in
the saving of human life and in allev-
iating the sufferings of those who are
injured in the pursuits of peaceful in
dustry.
The third national mine safety meet
in behalf of the army of more than a
million miners is to be held at the
Panama-Pacific exposition grounds,
September 23 and "a, under the aus
pieces of the bureau of mines, the
American Mine Safety association and
the California Metal Producers asso-
citation. During that week, the Ameri-
can Mining congress, a national body
of several thousand members. will
hold their annual meetings at the ex-
position and will join in the safety
demonstration, which promises to have
as spectators the largest gathering of
mining men ever assembled in the
United States.
1t is expected that more than fifty
teams of miners from all over the
United States, trained in rescue and
first-aid work, will be present to COM
pete in the several events. Gold med
ais are to be awarded by the American
Mine Safety association for interstate
supremacy in rescue and first-aid
work and silver and bronze medals BY
the American Red Cross society to
teams that make creditable showings.
In addition, there will be special med
ais and prizes to be competed for by
groups of states, such as the South
western states, the Rocky Mountain
states, the Pacific coast state and the
Southern states
Already miners all over he country
are preparing for the great national
meet. Both rescue and first aid teams
are in training in many mining COM
munities and certain states and groups
of states are holding elimination CO.
tests so that they may be represented
at San Francisco by the strongest pos
sible teams. Six southwestern states,
Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas,
Missouri and Iowa have already held
tie meets and they are now preparing
to hold an interstate meet in Kansas
City in July The Southwestern Inter
state Coal Operators association is
managing this interstate meet and ex-
poets to have 10000 persons present.
The winning team at Kansas City is to
be given $1,000 as a prize to defray its
expenses to San Francisco and re-
turn
