CHlVAlRY STILL ABOUNDS
IN MODERN WARFARE

Frankfort, Germany, March 30
Correspondence of The Associated
Press -Chivalry still persists in mod
ern warfare, as is proved by the ex-
perience of a non-commissioned Of
ticer in Baden regiment, who was
wounded in the recent fighting at La
Basse between the Germans and the
British. In one of the repeated
charges by which the celebrated brick
yards changed hands so often, the
non-commissioned officer led his squad
to within fifteen yards of the British
trenches, where he fell wounded by
six bullets. His comrades, who were
forced 20 fall hack to their own
trenches fifty yard away, tried to
carry off the body os their supposed
dead leader, but were unable to do so
owing to the heavy fire. Twenty-four
hours later the British discovered that
the wounded officer was still alive and
called TO him to come TO their trench
promising him good treatment. He
was unwilling to do so and instead
raised himself on his elbow and called
to his friends:
Come get me. ! don't want to be
a prisoner of the English
The Germans shouted to the British
request for permission to bring in
the wounded man; the British prom
ised not to shoot, and two German sol
diers ventured boldly out of their
trenches, crossed the intervening
space and carried the wounded man
back, not shot being fired and both
British and Germans joining in cheers
The story is printed with approving
comment in the German papers.

ACREAGE TO RULE
PRICE OF COTTON

New Orleans, La, March 29.-Ma-
terial advances We're registered in
the cotton market last week, carrying
prices to new high levels for the
season. The December option went
well over the ten-cent mark. Buying
was general, it was said the lead
was taken by powerful interests who
appeared to be purchasing cotton on
its own merits. At the highest the
trading months were SO to 81 points
over final prices the week before;
they closed at net gain of 80 to 81
points.
The upward movement was in the
face of smaller exports and talk of a
larger acreage than had been expect
ed. The favorite contention of the
bear side was that the higher prices
would result in a full planting of cot
ton this spring. They considered that
the rise in prices was due to specula-
tion and manipulation. On the other
hand, bulls considered it due to the
fact that cotton has been trading at
an abnormally low level and they
claimed that the alleged bull cam
paign under way was designed to put
prices back to their legitimate level.
a feature of the week was the
slump Friday of quarter-cent
pound on the report that the secre-
tary of agriculture had statCjl that
there had been no decrease in the
cotton acreage this spring. This was
officially denied Saturday with the
result that the market underwent al.
most a full recovery.
The indications are that this week
the market will pay more attention
to the proportions for planting the
new crop than to anything else, al
though operations may be curtailed
to some extent by the fact that the
market will close for the week Thurs
day evening because of the usual
Easter holidays.

ALABAMA INDIANS SPEAK
CHOCTAW LANGUAGE

Muskogee, Okla, March 29.-Down
near the town of Weleetka is set.
tlement OF 800 Alabama Indians,
who came to this country with the
Creeks. In one of the Indian wars
prior to the year 1900 these Ala
bamans were taken captives by the
Creeks and later adopted into the
Creek tribe. When the Creeks came
from the far southwest to old Indian
Territory, they brought the Alabam-
ans with them. and when the lands
of this country were allotted, the
Alabamans were given the same
rights as the Creeks. They spoke
an entirely different tongue from the
Creeks, so were placed in a colony
by themselves near the town of We
leetka.
In reading of the Greek war of 1912
a few days ago, Charles Drew, head
of the United States Indian agency
saw paragraph which declared
that the language of the Creeks was
similar to the Choctaws. When Jonas
Fish, an old-time Alabama fullblood
came to the agency, Drew called in
Jacob w. Homer, the Choctaw in.
terpreter, and asked him to talk
Choctaw to the aged Alabaman rne
two conversed readily, although they
found difference in pronunciation
of some of the words. Fish said that
his father had told him that back in
1850 a band of Choctaws, becoming
discontented with their chief, aban-
doned the tribe of Choctaws, and Sc
lected leader of their own. These
went over to Alabama and were
known as the Alabamas. This state
ment seemed to connect the two
tribes and establish the theory of
Charles Drew that the Choctaws and
Alabamas are of the same tribe.
Although the Choctaws and the
Alabamas have been living in eastern
Oklahoma for years, this is the first
time it became known that their
language was substantially the same
