T@dlay's Market Quotations
WEATHER FAILS
TO UPHOLD LIST
Despite Renewed CnfavorabIe Condf-
tons and High Marks Reached BY
=. Prices, Quotes Weaken

Chicago, Aug. 5.-A1though the
wheat prices today made new high rec
ords for 1916, the upturns were not
maintained. Buyers displayed caution
and there was a manifest greater dis
position toward week end sales to
realize profits. The fresh advance
today was caused chiefly by assertions
that ali wheat for so miles north of
Regina, Sask.. was more or less in
fected with black rust Opening
prices which ranged from q to &c
higher, with September at 1.35 Il to
1876 and December at 1.39 to 1874
were followed by reactiosn, which car
Tied the market well under yesterdays
finish.
Later the market rallied owing to
signs of buying on the part of ex-
porters- 1t was said / ,000. 900 barrels
Of flour had been sold to Great Brit
ain. The close was unsettled Il a q c
to 1ac net higher with September 1.35
and December 1857 a "a.
Dry, hot weather throughout most of
the corn belt made the corn market
ascend Prices eased off somewhat
later After opening sc to Is higher,
the market steadied at a moderate set
back from initial top figures.
Crop damage reports from the south
west led afterwaTd to another up
ward swing in prices. The close was
strong at rs to sc net advance.
Oats were governed by the action of
other grain. Provisions hardened be
cause of lightness of offerings. Buy
ing was only of a scattered sort.

THE DAY IN DAVENPORT

Sues City for $4,000. W. Asher has
filed a claim against the city for
Sc, 900 alleged to be due him as a re-
suit of a fall about a month ago when
he tripped over a water cap on a
downtown street and suffered severe
injuries. The accident happened at
Third and Brady streets.
Tea Importer Is IIl-Vincent L. Cis-
sera, tea importer, well known in
Davenport where he visits regularly,
was operated on several days ago in
St Luke's hospital, Chicago. While his
condition was grave at the time, L. G.
Stein of Davenport yesterday received
word from DR.. Barker to the effect that
the crisis had been passed and that
the patient was on the road to recov-
cry.
McHahan ReenIists-Charles j. Nc
Mahan, who was honOrably discharged
from the United States navy four
months ago, reenlisted yesterday at the

Two Firemen Resign-Two Of the
members of the fire department of the
city have resigned their positions.
Walter st. Onge and Frank Daley are
the two popular firemen to leave the
work Both of these men have been
in the service for some time and are
exceedingly well liked by the other
members of the force. 1t is probable
that Chief Denger will make the ap-
pointment for their successors soon,
as the recent examinations saw many
participants pass the tests. Another
examination will probably also be held
as there will be need for more men as
soon as the rest Of the new apparatus
arrives.

Stoker of Davenport, who was serious
" injured two years ago. when a tri-
city street car ran into him while he

Railway company to the supreme court
Of Iowa A motion of appeal from the
directed verdict for the defendant was
served today by Ely & Bush, attorneys
for the plaintiff The case was tried
before Judge House last April. The
defendant made motion for direct
ed verdict, but the Judge overruled 1t.
Later, Judge House sustained the mo-
ton The case Will probably come up
in Des Moines some time during the
September term of court.
State Auditors to Meet-The State
Recorders association will meet in an
nuaI convention in Davenport on Aug.
l6, II and Is, in connection with the

It's Up To You

We dislike very much to call the at.
tention of any of our subscribers to the
fact that their subscriptions to this pa
!, per have expired, and we only do it be-
cause we do not wish them to miss a
copy of the paper. We have sent per
sonal notices to every subscriber whose
time expires by August and we have
called their general attention to the
fact thru the columns of the paper
twice. Some have paid no attention to
any of the notices and we will have to
drop their names from the list unless
they renew by August /. We do not
like to lose subscribers, but cur rule is
to pay in advance for the paper and we
cannot have some to pay in advance
and let others run over. 1t would be
unfair to our subscribers and ourselves.
Rich and poor, old and young, infuen-
tfal and uninhuential, everybody is
treated alike. Now please do not neg
lect this and then when your name is
dropped from the list get mad at us
about it, for we have notified you in
every way we can and want everyone
Of you to stay with US.

A New Departure

We notice that several newspapers in
in this state are carrying display polit-
icalB advertising for county and other
Offices We have suggested to candi-
dates and repeat the suggestion that if
a merchant can reach the people by ad-
verising the candidates can do the same
thing and it would pay them. Last
week we noticed half page advertise
ment in the Winsnboro Herald and
News of revival meeting in progress
in that town. 1t is new departure
but sensible one.
The candidates will not reach twenty
per cent Of the voters on the county
campaign. Use Sentinel advertising
and reach them in the best way pos
sible. You will not have to stop man
from his work to present your claims,
but by your advertisement you can ap-
peal to him at his leisure and stand n
better chance Of winning his approval
of your candidacy.

Pickens County and the Storm

Compared to adjacent territory, Pick
ems county was not much damaged by
the recent freshet which wrought such
havoc in other parts of the country.
About twenty small bridges in different
sections of the county were washed
away, but none of the larger bridges
are gone, tho one or two are reported
slightly damaged. The roads are badly
washed in some places.
Bottom corn in all sections of the
county is badly damaged and in many
places destroyed.
The Plckens railroad suffered a small
washout at Wolf. creek Saturday and
was forced to annul the early morning
train, caring for the passengers and
mail by automobile.
Old Inhabitants say Town creek was
the highest Saturday afternoon ever
known, but it quickly subsided.
Henry Williams OF the Peters Creek
section reports that his section he's been
the hardest hit in the county and some
of the crops there are completely de-
stroyed. A severe wind and hail storm
also visited this section four weeks ago
and did great damage.
The people Of this county generally
are very optimistic and very grateful
that the damage is no greater. We
have cause to be thankful.

Another Bully Caught

Frank Jackson, bad negro from
Kentucky who has been bullying the
negroes in construction camps along the
Southern railway, is in the Pickens Jail
and "Hun" Ferguson, his partner, will
likely soon be keeping him company as
result of a shooting affair at Calhoun
Sunday morning.
Jackson and Ferguson, who were
working on the Southern railroad in
Oconee county, likkered up Sunday
morning and paid visit to Contractor
Mays camp near Calhoun. Mr.. Mays
ordered the negroes away and they left,
but in short time came back and when
they got sight of Mr.. Mays again began
shooting at him, firing about fifteen
shots. The contractor returned their
fire with five shots, but no one was hit
The negroes then made their way back
to Oconee. Officers LaBoon and Nc
Kinney happened to be at Central at
the time and were upon the scene of
trouble in a short time. They with Mr..
Mays went after the culprits and found
them with crowd in small hut gam
bling. In the confusion Mr. Mays was
only able to identify jackson and he
was nabbed. Jackson says Ferguson
is the other one, and as he is we'll
known to the officers he will probably
be captured soon.

Two Pickens Co. Men Killed

Larry D. Lark, son of Julius LARK of
Pickens county, was killed at Saluda
river last Tuesday when high frame
work tower on which he was working
collapsed. Robert Boyce Kay, son of
r. A. Kay, also of Pickens county, fell
with the tower at the same time and
was SO badly injured that he died next
day.
The young men were employed by the
II. j. Dunnivant company, who have
the contract for the construction of the
concrete work for the Southern rail
ways trestle over Saluda river. A high
framework tower had been erected and
the two men were up on it attaching
guy wires to hold it steady. The tower
was about rs feet high. The hard rain
of the night before, it is believed, soft
ened the foundations Of the tower, and
it suddenly collapsed.
The coroner's inquest was held over
both bodies Wednesday afternoon. The
jury brought in verdict of accidental
death.
Messrs. Lark and Kay were members
of well-known families of the Crosswell
section and their untimely deaths causes
sorrow among large number of friends,
who sympathiZe with the bereaved pa-
rents.
