Before the meeting finally adjourned
it was voted unanimously to have a
fair, and the suggestion made by G. A,
Boyden that the fair be held this year
for two days instead of three as in the
past few years was left for the directors

Sheep owners in New Mexico will
receive the largest income this year
from sale of lambs and wool in the
history of the industry in that state.
Conditions during the lambing season
were not as favorable as in an aver
age year in some sections of the state
and the increase for the state as Il
whole will be approximately 40 per
cent. compared with normal increase
of IS per cent. Shortage Of lambs,
however. is more than made up on
the sheep growers balance sheet by
high prices for both lambs and wool.
Sales of lambs will bring the growers
minimum Of S12,G0O,00O. The wool
clip is normal at around 1S.0O0.OOO
pounds, but the price will average bet
ter than 80 cents a pound for the
state. as compared with an average
of 20 cents last year and II cents in
1915. The income from wool sales
probably will reach S5,500,OOO.

it in glass case on the upper floor Of

MODERN LIFE IN PATAGONIA
Prosperous and Up-to-Date City Has
Grown Up at the Tip of the South
American Continent.

The modern city Of Punta Arenas
has risen to Importance at the ex-
IRENE southern extremity of South
America since the advent of the au-
tomobile.
Punta Arenas, or, as 1t is commonly
called by its own people, Sandy Point,
can be compared the more readily with
American settlements because 1t is
not essentially part of Spanish
America. The city and surrounding
territory are populated chiefly by
Scotchmen, and English is the pre-
vailing tongue. Three-fourths of the
export trade is with England and the
United States.
This southern outpost of civilization
was founded in 1910. as q convict
camp for Chilean prisoners, conse-
| quently bearing resemblance to Aus
tralia In demonstration Of the value
of enforced colonization. The pres
ence of the cOnvicts caused the estab-
liShment of a coaling station for veS-
sells passing through the Straits of
hSViioI, anu lstSStu
| cOlOrless existence until a few years
ago, when the discovery was made
that southern Patagonia was the finest
sheep-raising country in the world.
We are accustomed to think of the
tip Of the South American continent
as polar region. says a writer in the
Americas. It's latitude does in fact
correspond to that of Alaska, and The
sea IS occasionally encountered with
icebergs, but ocean currents warm the
land. producing a climate more eCua-
BILE than that Of~Kentucky. The pas
lures are green all the year round. and
no houses need be built for sheep.
With the discovery of the sheep
raising possibilities of Patagonia,
Scotchmen and Englishmen from the
Falkland islands thronged to the main-
land, great sheep ranches We're cstab
lished. and Punta Arenas became a
modern city Of 1900 population, with
electric lights, theaters, banks, four
newspapers. good schools. etc. II is
the commercial outlet for great aS-
ricultural and mining district.
The transportation demands of Pat
agonia developed after the coming Of
the automobile. and as a result, all
passenger transportation is carried on
by auto. The one railroad in the cOUn-
try Is not passenger road. PaSsable
highways and the internal combustion
engine are dependency of this newest
civilization in the world.

SOCIETY LADIES

FOR GAMBLING
Fair Directors to Have Grand
Jury Take Up
Matter.
RESULT OF ARREST

Banker is Witness and Ready te
Testify Ladies Violated
Betting Laws.

Prosecution of the society ladie:
who were used as witnesses in getting
warrant against G. W. (Docl Gle
mcnt on charges of setting up gam
bling device during Fair week was an,
nounced yesterday evening by one o:
the Fair directors as counter-actior
against the threatened investigation
by the grand jury into the business of
Clement during the Fair. Those lead
ing the prosecuting Of Clement on the
grounds that he violated the State
laws are said to have threatened to
take the matter before the grand jury
for investigation.
Several leading society ladies' of the
Cape were seen to play Clements
wheel. A banker informed The TrIb-
une he Saw one man who was pressing
the prosecution of Clement urge these
ladies TO play Clements wheel in an
effort to get some evidence against
Clement. -"If those who instigated the
prosecution of Clement carry out their
threat, to take the matter before the

1t gft, Il shall see that testimony

;.oduced before the grand jury, testi-
nany sufficient to indict these. women

When the warrant against Clement
was issued, the Fair directors urged
him TO stand trial and expose these
women. Rather than drag them into
court, Clement agreed to pay small
fine, provided the charges would Their
b. dismissed.
The Fair directors agree that the
prosecution of Clement was the cause
of Il heavy loss to the Fair Associa-
ton. They say they would not have
granted Clement concession mad
those, who had him arrested, announc-
ed their intention before the conces-
sions were leased at the Fairgrounds
Park.
1t is understood that Clement was
refunded $3.50, the money which he
had paid for the concession at the
park 1t was said to be the largest
sum paid for any booth at the park
which means the Fair Association was
forced to a heavy loss.
Il is estimated that the profit of The
Fair Association will run over $1,000
this year after all expenses and all
premiums have been paid out. Secrc
tary Rodney G. Wlitelaw has not NJ
yet completed his list and totaled the
receipts during the Fair, and there
fore no definite figures as to attend
ancc and receipts are obtainable.
Judging from the large attendance
during the three last days of the Far.
it is taken for granted by the Fail
directors that this years profit will be
much larger than in any other year.
for the attendance was far greater
this year than in any other previous
year.

Places,

In spite of the fact that they see
any number of them every day there
is nothing that people know so little
about as places. The world is full of
all sorts of places. Some places are
smaller than others, but none of them
is so small that it does not contain
several more still smaller. Places are
simply Indispensable. You can't get
along without them. There are places
pleasant and unpleasant and some of
the most unpleasant are electric
chairs, jailyards, tight places, summer
camps and last places. Everything in
the world has its place. but only a
small proportion of the things in the
world stay In their places. The world
itself is only place, and a rather
crowded place. at that.-Exchange

SECRAVES TO Sue
NICHOLS FOR FEE
Former Deputy Sheriff Has Tilt
With Common Pleas Court
Over Sis So.

A rcplcvin suit for the recovery Of
$685. will be filed today by Council
man w. J. Segraves against ID. A.
Nichols, clerk of the Common Pleas
Court, for the recovery Of the mon"s
which Scgraves claims as his fees 10y
service in a civil suit while he WAS
deputy sheriff. The two failed e
come to an agreement yesterday, and
as a result Segraves announced that
he would bring the suit today.
Nichols told Segraves yesterday he
would not pay the amount because he
had a claim of s1O.45 against Segrave2
as fees in a damage suit which Sc
graves filed in the Common Pleas
Court several months ago and in
which he received Judgment to the
amount of 1929.
Nichols offered to return ScCraves
the difference Of the two amounts, but
SceTaves declined to accept the offer
stating the clerk had not right to re-
tain any of his fees as deputy sheriff
He said he would pay the fee for the
other suit if Nichols would allow him
the full amount of the fec due him -
deputy sheriff.
Segraves explained last night the
money was the property of the State
and that the clerk was merely Gus
teaiaH OF the money. He said he did
not believe Nichols had any authority
to retain anything that was not his
arope1ty, and for that reason he would
bring the suit.

but he sticks to you, showing you pic

and the death scythe and a skeleton,
making it quite certain you will die

Harry E. Alexander, president OF
the Southeast Missouri Democratic
Club, which embraces 81 counties IN

sent a letter to The Tribune, COM
mending the two Senators. In his let
ter, he said:
II am delighted to see The Tribune
come out so fearlessly in favor of
Senators Stone and Reed. 1T is my
opinion that they are the biggest men
in the State, regardless of party, and
the people owe it to them to sustain
them in their official work.

Senator's means to condemn the Presi-
dent. Senators Stone and Reed were
elected by the people of this State to
represent them in the Senate, and I
believe the people are well satisfied
with what they have done
Senator Stone received the largest
majority ever given candidate for
the United States Senate when he ran
for reelection three years ago. Sena-
