A pair of appealing brown eyes, a

ty as an actress won for little Marie
Dunn, the exalted position of leading
lady in "A Double Dyed Deceiver,"

next Thursday.
Although still very young, it will
not be long before the talented young
lady will be awarded the significant

plays.
Coming as she does from comedy to
drama, Miss Dunn's most commend
able recent work is her portrayal of
Betty Pomeroy. in the Edgar COM

a fascinating personality that is
keenly felt by her audiences, while
in roles requiring more dramatic en-
phasis she is demure and appealing.

the role of Estella, little Spanish

WEATHER FAVORABLE
FOR COTTON CROP
Fair and Warm Wave Causes Rapid
Opening And Harvesting.

Washington, Sept. 30.-Warm and
dry weather which enabled cotton to
open rapidly and the harvest to
make good progress during the week
ended yesterday, the department of
agriculture reported tonight in its
weekly crop bulletin.
The cotton crop made very good
progress in Tennessee, the bulletin
said. The bolls are all open in CEN
trail and southern Georgia and pick
ing has been completed in many To-
calities, but in the northern portion
of the state still is blooming.
Some improvement was report
ed by the department in late cotton
in North Carolina, but no material
change was indicated in South Caro-
lima. In the latter state the depart
ment said weevils were doing much
damage in the central and southern
portions and were increasing north
ward toward Lancaster county.
The crop made fair to excellent
progress in Oklahoma and fairly
good advance in Texas, fair top
crop being indicated in Oklahoma
and also in many sections of Texas.
The warm weather and light rains
in Arkansas were favorable in that
state, although the crop continues
in poor condition in the southern
portion and lowlands, although fair
to good oh uplands except in the
southern part.
The tropical storm of last week
caused no extensive damage to open
cotton, although some was spoiled
in parts of Louisiana. =.

BIG BREAKS IN WHEAT
WERE RECORDED TODAY

Chicago, Sept. 25.-Big breaks in
the price of wheat took place today
largely as a result of agitation for a
general cut in food cost. The smash
of values in wheat amounted to as
mulch as IL 3-4 cents bushel and
the market closed on a semi-demor-
allied condition, December delivery
at $2.25, to 2.25 Ia and, March
2.15 to 2.16.
In sympathy with the weakness of
wheat other grain markets also
gave way, and both corn and oats
fell to the lowest price le-e.s yet for
the 1920 crop.
Heretofore, wheat has been ad-
.vancing despite setbacks in the
price of other grain. The chief rea-
son ascribed for such strength was
huge sales of wheat for export to
Europe. Today, however, the stimi-
lus of export business appeared to
have lost it's influence and especial
ly near the end of the day, the
wheat market tumbled wildly down.
