HEAVY DAMAGE TO
COTTON BY FROST
Estimated at 1,172,OOO Bales for the
Entire Belt: Crop in Eastern Arkan-
a and Tennessee Disaster.

Damage to the cotton crop from the
extraordinary early killing frosts this
fall is estimated by the Commercial
Appeal at 1,172,000 bales.
However, it may be said that a
small portion Of this damage may be
more apparent than real, as there is
a bare chance that some bolls reckon
ed as killed by the freezes may open
These constitute a relatively small
proportion of the total.
Heaviest damage suffered has been
in the central portion of the northern
rim of states. Specifically, Memphis
is the center of the area of greatest
damage. In eastern Arkansas and all
of Tennessee the devastation was so
great as to constitute a disaster, esti-
mates of the damage in these sections
ranging from 80 to as high as go per
cent.
zNorthern Mississippi and Alabama
also suffered, but frost damage was
lessened in those states as well as in

It again. It threw him into black pit
Of agony and CONSERVATION.
Now. he could, but would not, be-
lieve it. He wondered who the heart
breaker might be. He remembered
that Lois had been fond Of Freneau
years before. He dismissed this sus-
picion with contempt. He loathed the
letter. Only towards and mischief
makers write such letters. He threw
this one from him as If it were some
thing unclean. Yet the anonymous
poison gnawed away in his brain. He
clenched and unclenched his hands
and paced the floor, beads of perspira-
ton dripping down his face.
At last he fought it out with himself
and decided that he would trust Lois
till she was proved unworthy. How
ever, the letter seemed to whisper
to him, "A little test will do no
harm"
OF course, Lois was guiltless, but
perhaps she had been careless of ap-
pearances. It would be better to
wait and rebuke the indiscretion when
it occurred. He had been talking Of a
trip South to a meeting of board Of
railroad directors on which his father
had placed him. It was not necessary
for him to 60. But he might pretend
that it was, and tell Lois good-by, and
pretend to leave, and then. He
dared not put the scheme into words.
But he dared not let the chance go
past to make sure.
That evening, when he went home,
Lois greeted him with her usual
warmth. Before he had quite decided
what to do. he had told her that he
was called South for ten days, and
he had not urged her to 60 with him.
She did not ask to 70. In fact, he

thought OF LOIS as q conquest to be
proud of; now he saw that he himself
was the victim and she the tyrant.
With one rash act she could not only
destroy herself but all Freneau's plans
Again he surrendered. Surrender
was becoming habit. He made one
condition, that they should take along
the letters they had exchanged and de-
stroy them. He wanted no written
evidence of his past to imperil his fu-
ture. Lois consented. and hurried
away, rejoicing.
She left Freneau in a mood of black
rage and remorse. The quality of his
remorse was shown in his medita-
tions. He thought Of the many women
he had dealt with lightly, and he Won
dered If any more OF them would rise
to threaten his security as son-in-
law of Pierpont Stafford.
That very day the most pitiful Of
his conquests appeared. Nell Trask
had learned from a newspaper that
her father had been knocked down BY
an automobile and taken to hospital.
She visited him there. His bodily In
juries were not serious, but he was
brooding so bitterly over Freneau that
Nell began to fear for his reason. He
told her that he had seen Freneau
and had denounced him, and Freneau
had struck him in the face. Old Trask
was burning to avenge it. He whis-
pered to Nell that he would reach
Freneau yet and strange him like .
dog. She feared both for her own
father and for the father Of her dead
child. She thought Of writing Freneau
to warn him, but that might only lead
him to prosecute her father. Perhaps
It she begged him to marry her. he
would be rich enough now. She found

ENGINEER BAKER OF
TORPEDOED CHERM0NC
WRITES TO FRIEND
IN MORGAN CITY

Inc puOCOSIdpIl VI CdpCdAA COAIii
L. Duffy published in the Times
Picayune yesterday was Of interest
to Morgan City people because of
the fact that C. L. Baker was chief
engineer on the Chermung COM
manded by Captain Duffy, which
was sunk by an Austrian submarine
in the Mediterranean sea when Cap
tain Duffy refused to lower the Am
erican colors. The boat went down
with the colors flying.
Mr.. f. E. Ditch, one of the lead
ing butchers and meat dealers Of
Morgan City received a letter from
Mr.. Baker the chief engineer Of the
Chermung which was written in New
York on Oct. 29th. He also received
q postol card from the Azores writ
ten by Mr.. Baker some ten days
later.
Mr.. Baker and Mr.. Ditch are old
time friends having steamboated to-
gether in this part Of the country
some six or seven years ago. He was
with Mr.. Ditch when the steamer
Julia r was burned on Six Mile
lake. Mr.. Ditch was master Of the
boat at that time. This was Mr..
Bakers last local engagement. He
went to California where he plyed
the sea between California and Alas
ka for some time, after which he
went into the U. S. transport ser
vice going to the Philippines. About
January /, of last year he accepted
q position Of chief engineer on the
pleasure yacht Cypress and made a
trip around the horn from San
Francisco to New York, stopping at
nearly all the ports on both the east
and west side Of South America.
After reaching New York he took a
position as chief engineer on the S.
S. Chermung plying between New
York and European ports until the
boat went down before the fire of
an Austrian submarine. At the time
of writing his last letter to Mr..
Ditch, the Chermung had just re-
turned from a rough trip across the
Atlantic. During an IS mile gale Mr..
Baker said that most of the crew
wished they knew how to pray in an
fashion.
The letter to Mr.. Ditch said in
part:
