QUAKER CITY RIOT.
Policeman Loses Life Trying to Save
City Prosecutor.

Philadelphia, Sept. 19.-Charges
that gunmen and fraudulent voters
had been brought here to take part
ir a Republican primary in the Fifth
Ward followed the killing here today
of George A. Eppley, a policeman
who went to the rescue of James A.
Carey and J. III. Maurer, an assistant
district attorney, when attacks were
made on them. The outbreak was
said to be the elimination of a smarl
riot last night at Republican club,
which resulted in six men being sent
to hospital.
Carey, who had engaged in a bit
ter campaign against Isaac Deutsch
for the Republican nomination for
council from the Fifth Ward, was
making the rounds of the polling
places when he was knocked down
with a sand bag. AT the same time
an attack was made on Maurer. Po-
liceman Eppley intervened and was
shot.
Jacob Mascia of Jersey City, arrest
ed on the charge of killing the police
man, has confessed, in a written state
ment, according to the police, that he
and 10 others were brought here from
New York and Jersey City to vote in
the primary. Mascia denied that he
shot Eppley, although the latter be-
fore he died identified Mascia as his
aSSailant.
John Costello, also of Jersey City,
who was arrested charged with being
an accessory to the crime, admitted
also, according to the police that he
had been hired with other men to
take part in the primary. The police
gave out a statement from him say
ing:
1--WE were brought here by a man
known as Little Neck, to vote in the
Fifth Ward. We were to vote for
Deutsch."
Both Mascia and Costello it is said,
wore q white ribbon in their button
holes as the distinguishing mark of
alleged hired voters from other cities
Isador Stearn, member of the
state legislature ,telephoned Mayor
Smith at the latter's cottage at At
lantic City, charging that the police
were responsible for the disorders and
urging him to return home.

WEATHER AND CROPS.
Synopsis OF Weather and Crop COndf-
tiOns in South Carolina for Week
Ending September 18.

Columbia, Sept. 19.-Cloudy days
and unseasonably cool nights during
the latter part Of the week consider
ably retarded crop growth. Cotton
continues to rust and shed, especially
in the eastern section. Picking was
materially slackened during the past
week. In northern counties the crop
is opening very slowly. Fodder pull
ing of late corn is being rushed and
some Of the crop is rotting on the
stalk because of scarcity of labor. Fall
turnips are being sown. Potatoes
gardens, truck and sugar cane are
doing well but need rain.

HAVE ANOTHER APPEAL.
Those Who Have Dependents Can Ask
Governor to Have Their Cases Re-
viewed.

washington, Sept. 19.-Men sum-
moned for service under the draft and
who have been denied discharge by
local or district boards because of
dependents have still another means
OF appeal where then can show there
has been error or misapplication Of
the law in their cases. On such n.
showing governors of States to whom
appeal may be taken are authorized to
request local boards to reopen cases.
There is no appeal to the president,
however, except where exemption has
been sought on the ground Of indus
trial employment and denied by the
district board.
The ruling is as follows:
THE only cases in which there is a
right of appeal to the president are
cases of claims for exemption or dis
charge based upon engagements in in
dustry or agriculture. Further than
this it is impossible to CO. If any of
the millions Of individual cases within
the original jurisdiction of local boards
are to be cosidered in Washington
then all ought to be open to consider
alton here This is manifestly impos-
sible. Therefore administrative au-
thority will not address itself to par
ticular cases in the jurisdiction Of
local boards.
"The president has directed the war
department to decline to discuss cases
pending before local or district boards,
or entertain any communications, sug-
gestions or statements concerning
them'

CHILDREN'S CODE

In 1915, the Governor of Missouri
appointed Commission to revise and
codify the laws of Missouri relating
to children.
This Commission is composed of %
men and women we'll known through
out the State and who have had ex-
perience in child welfare work, emf
nent lawyers, educators, doctors and
sociologists--all of whom have given
their time and their service freely to
the cause.
No legislation that comes before
the General Assembly of Missouri this
winter could be of more Importance,
and it should receive more energetic
support of every member of the Leg
islature. 1t calls for no appropria-
tions of money by the State and the
expenditures by each county rests with
the county iteslf. The code provides
for County Boards of Welfare to adj
minister the charitable and correction
al institutions of the county, the es-
tablishing of Juvenile Courts in all
counties, the protection of children
born out of wedlock-the guardian
ship of child workers. The Commits
sion proposes an interval of five days
between the application for a mar
riage license and its issuance, the APP
plication to be pubiished-this with
view to the prevention to hasty mar
riages. They further recommend that
the adoption of child shall be a
court proceeding, instead of, as now,
the mere matter of recording deed.
1t also recommends that the present
law touching the property rights of
adopted children be changed.
They further recommend that the
State Board of Charities and Correc-
tions be empowered to inspect and SUI
pervise all child-caring institutions.
The passage of similar law in In
diana has broken up so-called baby
farming.
The Commission further recon-
mends the abolition of common law
marriages and the binding of every
marriage by legal ceremony. They
propose that the Mothers Pension
Act be State wide in its application,
and that it apply to all mothers who
have children under compulsory
school age to support.
All these laws carry out the prin-
cipal of child protection and nurture
there is no party question in it
the lack of funds in the State Treas
ury cannot touch it, so it can be con-
sidered solely on its merits as an en-
lightened system of laws for the well
afre of the children of Missouri.

1917 CORN YIELD CONTEST

The Agricultural Department of the
State Normal School, Cape Girardeau
Mo-, will conduct a Corn Acre YielC
Contest again in 1917. The prizes and
rules will be very much the same as in
previous contests. One scholarship
valued at $500, is given to the per.
son growing the largest amount OF
corn to one acre in each county. Cash
prizes for the highest yields in the
District are offered by the Cape Girar.
deau Commercial Club.
Circular letters are sent out to the
contestants as the season progresses
suggesting things that will increase
yields. All that is required of the
contestant is that he keeps an accurate
record of all the work he does on his
acre of corn. On enrolling blank
is sent to each contestant on which
he keeps this record.
In awarding the prizes we do not
consider the cost of producing the corn
nor do we require any written essays,
The yield is the only thing that is con.
sidered. No enrollments are received
after April /. The plot of ground
used may be an acre by itself, or it
may be part of large field. The
plot must be regular in shape and be
a full acre.
AS long as the supply lasts, we will
be glad to send a tabulated statement
showing how the winners of the 1916
contest grew their corn. Enroll nowl
You may win some of the cash prizes.
Whether you win or not, you are GO
ing to learn more about corn growing.
How big a yield could you grow if
you made the conditions ideal on a
small plot of ground. Would it not
pay to duplicate on a large field the
methods used by the winners to get
their high yields in 1915?

A WONDERFUL COW.
Continued from Last Week.

CONTINUED from Last Week.
Editor Times: Sir: Last week our
aim was to show that a cow to be
Of real value must possess many and
rare qualities, paramount among which
is, in order to be of great value, that
the increments coming from said COW
must be largely bestowed on and be-
come part of the fixed values of her
County and State. We think that our
presentation of the status Of Chief
Josephine as meeting these requisites,
would withstand any writ of demur-
rer" in any Court of our Common
wealth, unless certain attorney offer
ed it. Her power of reproduction, on
down the cycles Of time, means that
the increments are not likely ever to
be exhausted, thereby always contribu-
ting to the permanent wealth of State
and society.
Not so with the Super-Cow. Though
fed, fostered and maintained in the
richest pasture of the realm, and not
having the powers of reproduction,
but possessing the powers of exhaus-
ton and destruction, and only those,
in her great power to alternate, rests
her eating, devouring and inaniting
part in the God favored County of st.
Francois, disemboweling her mother
earth, taking out her fabulous wealth
cream, if you please, forcing it along
through her great attenuation to the
great City on our eastern seashore,
there bestowing all the great incre-
ments on the exclusives of that mighty
city, eventually leaving as evidence Of
the once giant of wealth, only few
holes in the ground, few dilapidatec
smoke stacks, together with here anC
there an ornamental chats-pile, as
monuments of great things that once
were.
Now Mr.. Editor it does seem that
both prudence and even justice de-
mand, that during the devouring of oul
county's great wealth and before this
great calamitous result obtains, al
least a 1.-THE of this great increment
should be made available, that oul
institutions of state should not b.
made to languish and die as it were
that no diminution might result tt
the enjoyment and DELEGATION of the
select few on the seashore metropolis
Of the great Atlantic. For just as SUR
as that day succeeds night and the sea
sons come in their regular succession
in obedience to the fiat of the Grea
First Cause, so will desolation and de
structions overtake the st. Francois
County part of this Super-Cow. Woult
ii not be the part of wide awake wis
dom to take into account these inexor
| able inf1exible and imperturbable law
