ANDERSON NEGROES
BADLY BEATEN UP
Victims Threatened With Deatk If
Names of Assailants Are Di-
vulged.

ue Ol6le.
Anderson, Nov. S.-Dave Benson
and Sam Benson, two negroes, were
cruelty beaten last night by unknown
parties. They say that they were
walking along the paved highway not
far from their homes west of the city
four men in an automobile came
along and grabbed them and placed
them in the automobile and then
drove to an unfrequented place and
took them out and gave them a
beating. After this they were driv-
en- Royston, Ca, but when the men
got there, they seemed to change
their minds and turned around and
drove back and put the negroes out
in about mile from their home.
They live on the Byrum place. Mr..
Byrum said that they came to his
place about 3 o'clock this morning
and were so badly beaten and IN
such pitiable condition that ne sent
for a physician.
The negroes refuse to say who
their assailants were but say there
were two white men and two ne
groes and that they were told that If
they gave any names that they would
be killed. They are afraid to tell.
The officers thought that the ne

''Mutt and jeff at the Races"
Those famous cartoon comics,
Mutt and Jeff, originally created by
"Bud" Fisher and brought into ma
tional fame by Gus Hill, are an
nounced to hold forth in a merry
whirl of action, mirth, music, pretty
girls, gorgeous costumes, novelty sur
prices and their latest adventures at
the opera house Tuesday, November
16.
This year their exploits will be
served through the medium Of a
brand new musical play of wit, hu-
NOR, song and melody entitled ''Mutt
and jeff at the Race" Of course,
the same old arguments will be re-
vived, patched up and renewed as OF
yore, but amidst atmosphere and en-
vironment that will tickle, please and
amuse their millions of admirers. A
wild orgy of unalloyed delight, HI
larity, and unstinted joy is promised.
Mutt and jeff are an institution and
purely American at that.

"Twin Beds"

The picture, "Twin Beds" which
Mr.. and Mrs. Carter DeHaven bring
to the opera house Monday is trans
fer to the screen Of one of the most
popular and successful farce come
dies, that the stage has produced. 1t
comes as the first Of these favorites'
productions in affiliation with Asso-
ciated First National pictures.
The original plot of this ever en-
ioyable piece has been closely follow
ed in making the picture, and as it Is
said to be one of the costliest plays
ever purchased for picture use,
great deal of expense has been in
Cured in making the production ade-
quate. It is reported to be feature
of exceptional merit from all angles
of presentation. A glance at the
cast Of characters is sufficient to
convince followers of pictures that
this is a wen-nigh all-star attraction.
Besides Mr.. and Mrs. DeHaven there
are in the cast such luminarles as
William Desmond, himself a popular
star, Helen Raymond, who created
the role of Signora Monti in the
original London production of the
play, Katherine Lewis and Lottie
Williams.
The picture is said to fulfill all the
prophecies made concerning it, and
with these two popular favorites,
supported by so competent group
of players, it bids fair to afford un-
usual entertainment.

AT THE OPERA HOUSE.
Dangerous to Men"


Viola Dana has the most. interest
ing screen play of her career IN
Dangerous to Men," the new Metro
production seen at the opera house
Friday. The picture is adapted by
A. P, Younger from H. V. Esmond's
drama, 'sEliza Comes to Stay" and
the screen version reveals possibili-
ties that were never brought out in
the original play.
Miss Dana appears as Eliza, the
orphan girl who at 1S is thrust into
a bachelors household as his ward.
She was an ugly duckling but she
grew in charm until she was consid-
cred dangerous.
1t is a role that gives Miss Dana
the opportunity of her career. Few
actresses could have been equally
convincing as the tomboy school girl
of the early scenes and the dangerous
siren of the climax of the drama. Yet
Miss Dana bridged the gap of years
with amazing virtuosity. By subtly
artistic strokes she pictured the grad
yual development of the child through
ythe inspiration of love into fascl-
mating young woman. Coming on
stop of her Characterization <of the
japanese girl in 'sThe Willow Tree"
Miss Dana's performance establishes
her in the front rank Of motion pic
!'ture actresses.
An excellent supporting cast IN
.cludes Milton Sills, Edward Conne!-
:ly, Josephine Crowell, Marian Skin
ner, John P. Morse, James BarroWs,
Mollie Mcconnell and Helen Rayr
mon. The photography was by John
Arnold and A. E. Freuderman de-
signed the beautiful interiors set
tings. The entire production was
under the direction of Maxwell kar-
ger, Metro, director general.

the first Of December when the bear
has the entire month for his delivery.
Then you will see sag until about
the 18th, when pressure for the raw
cotton to replace his paper will start
the bali again up the hill. Mr.. Farm
er do you know, can you realize that
if you would not sell another bale
for 40 days you would be bid above
80 cents for just enough Of the cot
ton you hold to get the fellow out of
distress who is now making you
sweat? The distress cotton that has
been sold in this country, at least 80
per cent. of it, has gone out of this
country through export. The stocks
you see daily advertised are from 70
to rs. per cent. low grade cotton. In
Memphis alone they report stock of
2S8,00O bales. Do you know that
175,OOO bales of this is very low
grade and carried over from last
year? A large part of it is perished
staple and being offered to the trade
at II cents, with no takers. 1t is be-
ing used against you as propaganda,
but it can never be used against you
while you have the good grades and
staples and it takes these to fill COM
mitments to mills. Continue to heed
the advice of Mr.. Wannamaker, sub
scribe to the Exports corporation,
and you will win your fight forever.
Something has been said about bad
advice. Your association set the
price last year at 40 cents. When
those that had cotton could get this
price and did not sell, he was the
maker Of his own bed. The goal was
reached and remained there long
enough for all that had cotton to
sell, and there is no use in any one
blaming B. Harris or any one else.
for one realize that the ultimate
success of the project now in pro-
cess will revolutioniZe the handling
Of cotton and God knows it should,
if it is my business. I am glad l
don't feel so small that I am willing
for the great majority to suffer that
I may live.
The present marketing system is
rotten, and is the most unfair to the
farmer who produces the cotton, our
greatest crop Of which there is. a
record. Mr.. Wannamaker's plan, a
gigantic undertaking, is the only
honest to goodness business propo-
sition ever put up to the farmer, and
having worked this out from much
study of the economic conditions and
the spending of much money from
his private fortune to bring about
concrete results, he deserves only the
highest commentator from all Of US.
