BOY GIVEN POISONOUS HooTcH

The indignation of many local citi-
zens has been aroused as the result of
someone giving lad Of fifteen years
moonshine whiskey. The boy was found
near the garage in back Of local bus
mess house Saturday night, in a drunk
en- stupor and crazed and paralyzed by
the liquor. Had he not been found

been fatal. When questioned as to
where he obtained the liquor, he re-

COZ N UNITY
THEATRICAL
AT HARWHA THEATRE NEXT
MONDAY EvENING-THREE
SHORT PLAYS

Miss Rosebud Fortier Of this city,
teacher of public speaking and drama.
tic art, is busy this week putting the
finishing g touches to three one-act plays
which will be presented by home talent
next Monday evening at the Harwha
theatre, under the auspices of the
Woman's Guild. The plays are "In
the Spring, A Young Mans Fancy"
by VIM. Smith Ransom; "Glory in the
Morning." by William Leonard, and
"Neighbors,'' by Zona Gale. The
latter two are University of Wisconsin
plays, written primarily for the -cul-
tivation Of better dramatic art. The
curtain will rise for the first play at
8:15 O'Clock sharp.
The aim of the Woman's Guild and
Miss Fortier in putting on these plays
at this time is to interest the people
of Little Falls in home talent plays as
a means of entertainment during the
winter months, and it is the hope of
the sponsors that entertainments of this
nature will become frequent hereafter.
It is generally agreed that the home
talent production excels the average
road show that makes cities Of this
size. Furthermore entertainments Of
this nature tend to foster g. better COM
munity spirit and closer relationship,
which in turn work for the good Of the
community.
Tickets for this entertainment are
now on sale and may be had at the
Streukens drug store, where the re-
served seat sale will also be held.
Following are the casts Of characters
for the plays:

NEW YORK COTTON
NEW ORLEANS COTTON


 New Orleans, La, September B. Wide declines, as the result of ex- tensive liquidation of the long inter- est, were registered in the cotton market today. October broke 200 points on the opening call of Al to l67 points in the early trading. For a considerable period the market made more or less show of steadiness and at one time came back within Il to 76 points of yesterdays close but in the late trading broke again to new low levels, except October showing losses of 1S5 to 1s6 points. This liquidation was forced by ru- mors of new labor unrest in Eng land and the report that the Berlin stock exchange had been closed be- cause of the fear of a national panic
 The close was barely steady al net losses of 154 to 16S points. with Oc- tober at 17.95c. New buying in con- siderable volume met the initial de- cline and there were indications that 1t was about to become more deter mined when the census bureaus first ginning figures of the season were issued. They counted the output to the first of September at 4S1,7SS bales, much larger total than expected. Few traders looked for larger gin ming than was reported to the first of September last year when the out put was s51.5S9 bales. The marking down of spot quotations by 200 points to 1S.00c for middling, was rather a surprise to some traders.

UPWARD MOVE IN THE STOCK MARKET HALTED YESTERDAY
Call Money Fell From Five and One-Half to Five Per Cent Before the Noon
 Hour
By Associated Press

New York, September S.-The up. ward movement in the stock market was halted today, shorts renewing suit of foreign advices which bore more or less directly upon home mar. kets.
 Private cables from London hinted at another crisis in the Irish situa- tion although this was not reflected in the British exchange rate. The collapse of marks to virtually the lowest quotation since the armistice, however, directed attention to Ger many's strained economic condition. ket, where options suffered another setback also served to restrain buli- ish operation. In financial circles the reversal was regarded as logi- cal reaction from the recent extraor- dinary advance.
 Gains exceeded recessions at the outset, but the market leaders soon developed a backward trend. Motors and equipments as well as chemicals, fertilizers, tobaccos and sugars led the decline at gross depreclationS ol one to four points.
 Oils. rubbers, junior steels ani the. less prominent food specialties seemed to draw their irregular strength from the maneuvers of pools, but broke sharply in the final hour. Mexican petroleum was most adversely affected, heavy tone pre- vailing at the close.
 Because of the light inquiry for funds, called money fell from 51a to 5 per cent before noon. Later, in the open market, these accommodations were obtainable at A. per cent. Sterling was firm, as also were Dutch, Italian and Scandinavian b!lls. but French and Belgian rates eased and all central European quotations were adversely affected by the break in German and Austrian exchanges
 The better trend of the bond list confirmed the impression prevalent in many quarters that investment money continues to see an outlet Domestic rails and industrials were mainly higher with various fore'sn issues. Liberty issues showed mixed gains and losses. Total sale par value were $13,650, 900.

SHANNON & CO.'S LETTER

Cotton: The market has been nervous and fretful all day, with sharp changes in either direction, though the undertone has been more steady and at times a considerable ability has been shown to absorb of ferings. Buying, however has not been general or aggressive, and there Is a rather strong impression that not a small part of the spot de- mand lately reported in the south has come from smaller merchants and dealers, who will find it diff . cult to obtain financial assistance to protect their purchases, and will be compelled to spill them out again presently.
 Whether there is any basis for this or not remains to be seen, but for the present it is serving to check buying, and it requires good evil dence of holders ability to resist pressure to remove this feeling.- Post & Flagg.
 Stocks: The market has shown some reaction today, which might well be expected after the recent strength, for as yet buying has come mostly as matter of short cover ing, and this soon runs it's course. if not carried by marked public par ticipation. It is, however, encour- aging to see that the liquidation which was so quietly persistent a few weeks ago has ceased and that this has left a limited supply of stocks for the shorts when they de- sired to reduce commitments result ing, consequently, in the distinct im- provement in prices, Of course, the hurried retreat of the shorts in the cotton market had it's influence.
 While international affairs are still in very halting and difficult shape, of which the exchange rates bear ample testimony. there is un- doubtedly some evidence of improved trade conditions at home, especially In the textile industries and this makes for some improvement in sentiment. It would seem as if the building trades might even have a veritable boom if labor conditions here permit. A recent adjustment in Chicago in this line IS good aug ury.
 It is reported that the Bourse in Berlin has been closed for week. due to the wide fluctuations caused in the further decline in the valua- tion of marks. It looks as if German currency had reached hopeless stage of imitation, and that some of their recent apparent prosperity might go cropper. As for our market, it is case of not expecting too much at once, it being hopeful that matters are on the mend. Sales, ss.soo.-Post & Flagg.

COTTON ACTIVITY REACHED RALLIES
 AND EARLY BREAK
Final Tone of Market Steady, But Last Prices Showed Losses of 112 to
 168 Points
By Associated Press

New York. September S.-At times today the cotton market shoved signs of subsiding activity and excite ment, but sharp rallies from an early break of 1N to 1 h cent per pound met a renewal of more or less gen. eral selling. December contracts which had rallied from 1S.50c to afternoon and closed at 1S.s5c com- pairing with 19.S0c at the close yes terday. The final tone of the market was very steady, but last prices showed net losses of 112 to 16s points.
 The market opened irregular at a decline of S7 to 125 points under overnight selling orders and renewed liquidation which was stimulated by the continued weakness of Liverpool. These early offerings were absorbed at about the initial figures by cov- ering. trade buying or rebuying by old longs but rallies met renewed pressure and the break extended to 1S.45c for January before the end Of the morning or about 130 to 15S points net lower.
 
 smaller, suggesting that the scattered long interest had been pretty well liquidated and the market showed d much better tone during the early afternoon with October selling at 19.35c, making rallies of about 50 to 100 points from the lowest. This brought out renewed liquidation and the big afternoon break was ac- companied by rumors that southern bankers were advising sales of spot cotton. These rumors were colored by reports of southern hedge selling here and prices reached the lowest levels of the day in the late trading with January selling at 1S40c, mak- ing a decline of about to Sl4 from the high levels of Wednesday,
 Closing prices showed rallies cf 25 to 30 points from the lowest on covering. Reports from the goods trade that some of the comm sslon houses were more willing to consid- CT bids for clothes and that buyers were holding off for further develop ments in raw material values were considered contributing factor on the decline, but local brokers attri- buted the late break chiefly to tue fear of increased spot offerings. The census report showing 4S1,7SS bales ginned prior to September 1 was not considered an influence on the days market

Harrison
 Says High Cotton Is
 South's Turning Point
By Associated Press

New York, September S.--After a meeting of the directors of the Southern Railway today. Presi- dent Fairfax Harrison issued the following statement in regard to the recent advance in cotton;
 ''As to the situation in the south there Is every indication thnt the corner has been turned. The advance in cotton was the breath of wind for which the Southern states have been walt ing. It has been true in the past that good cotton prices affect all industries, and increase the buy ing power, which means im- proved business. Goods purchased by the south will mean better earnings for the roads. Improve ment will. of course. be gradual but much Is gained when senti- ment changes"
