Not Acquainted.

1t isn't exactly their swell brand Of
golf that entities them to be so de-
cidediy English in their apparel but
they've a "fawncy" for the English
raiment just the same.
"How do you like my English cap,
old chap" one of them asked.
"Its a turtle, old dear, but it isn't
quite so English as mine," the other
said.
"Oh, mine Is, quite"
"NO, not nearly"
And so they compared caps Br'
when they looked at the names of the
makers it was discovered by the de
cidedly English" follower that his "ar
had been made in New York. The
other bore London lakeland. of
course, you understand, Old chap. II
was quite "lawf."
And the funny feature of 1t all Is
that the New York cap was made to
appeal to the English trade, while the
London cap was designed to catch the
fancy of the Yank.

Happy on His Way

In one Of the Indianapolis schools
recently the teacher announced to her
pupils that they would study China
during the afternoon, and told the
children to bring various products Of
the country. Very excitedly a little
chap rushed into the grocery store and
told the grocer to give him a nickel's
worth Of sassafras, as he was to study
China at school, and the grocer told
him she must have said Indiana, but
he gave him Gunpowder and Imperial
mixed, instead Of the good old Hoosier
product, and sent him happily on his
way.

SENTIMENT IN ARKANSAS
 IS AGAINST NIGHT RIDING

LITTLE ROCK, Ark.-Responsi- ble sentiment in this state is run ming strongly against night riding which has been undertaken in this
 and other cotton-erowing states to prevent the ginning and marketing of cotton at the present low price. Representative planters, bankers and businessmen feel strongly that the lawlessness is giving the South q "black eye".
 At a recent meeting of the Ar kansas division of the American 1 Cotton Association here, night rid ing was condemned as an act of
 gross ignorance. Governor Brough has taken vigorous stand against
 night riding and ne has d further support. among others, from Claude
 Fitzpatrick, president of the Arkan-
 sas Bankers association All the
 forces of the state and local gov ! ernments in Arkansas are now CO.,
 operating to prevent further law
 lessness in the cotton ginning cen-
 ters. -:"-.:- This counter movement is be-
 lieved to be doing much to stop
 the activities of night riders. Mass
 meetings have been held in many
 towns and the cooperation of the 1 citizens has been proffered officers
 in maintaining order
 l Acts of violence for which night 'riders have been given credit in l Arkansas have taken various forms.
 In addition to the burning of gins,
 warehouses and other property, farmers who attempted to market
 their cotton have been threatened
 with death or severe punishment.
 and in some cases have been badly
 maltreated. Negro families have been intimidated and driven from
 their homes because they sought ! employment or worked as cotton pickers. Hundreds of cotton gins in various sections of the state have been posted with warnings against { continuing to buy and gin cotton, the threatened penalties for not needing the warning including the destruction of the plants and for feiture of the lives of the owners. In one county eight men are now ! awaiting action of the grand jury 1 on charge of setting fire to gin 1 nery,' and in another section of the state three white farmers have been sentenced to years imprisonment 1 and assessed heavy fines for intimi- dation of negro cotton pickers.

VETS Claim Big
Mexican Victory

Mexico City, Mexico, Nov. 20. -
Prohibitionists. who thought thai
they had won a great triumph un-
der the new Mexican government
received another heavy blow when
Celestino Gasca, governor of the

regulations were invalid. This
means that cantinas, saloons ana
restaurants in which liquors are
sold will no longer be compelled TO
close or discontinue the sale OF al
coholic beverages from Saturday
noon until the following Monday
morning.
( The prohibitionists are still fight
ing hard TO regain lost ground, but
the vets are exultant, believeing
that they have won decisive VIC
tory.
The courts have not yet passed
finally upon the validity OF the dry
but the liquor men be-
lieve that the action of Governor
Gasca means certain victory in the
courts.
1t is said that the new govern
ment, which favors restrictions up-'
on the sale Of alcoholic beverages.

stand the tempest raised by the
dry regulations. ..@
There are six hundred cantinas
or saloons in Mexico Ciy. The pro-
. rietors of these places have fought
hard against the closing order, de-
claring that it meant ruin for them.
They have received the support OF
liquor dealers, throughout Mexico,
who have been alarmed by the
threatened approach of prohibit
ton.
