LITTLE BOY SMOTH-
Erred IN COTTON
Julian Mccullough, 5 Years Old
Is Embedded in Fleecy
Staple.

An untimely death, the result of
an accident, occurred Monday morn
ing at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Martin Mccullough near old Red
Star when their young son, Julian,
was smothered to death while play
ing in a big pile of seed cotton.
Preceding the tragedy the even
ing prior, all of Mr.. and Mrs. Nc
Cullough's children, Clarence, Mary,
Roy and Julian the dead boy, spent
most of the afternoon burrowing and
having general good time in about
a bale of seed cotton thrown up on
the back porch of the residence.
Monday morning all of the child
rem with the exception of Julian, a
bright five-year old lad, were sent
to school. Mrs. Mccullough be-
came busily engaged with her house
hold duties and for time thought
nothing of the absence of the little
fellow until his non-appearance
caused her to become uneasy. She
then began search and after con-
siderable time saw leg sticking
thru the cotton, pulling him out with
extreme difficulty, his head being
buried in the pile of cotton. She
ran with her dead son three quarters
of a mile to Mr.. William Smiths
gin believing at the time that assist
ance might probably bring him back
to life.
The funeral services were held
yesterday at the Newell grave yard.

New York S Unemployed
Drift From Theaters
To Public Libraries

NEW YORK. March 15.-Unem-
ployment and lower wages are serv-
ing to make New York literary. A
drift from the moving picture thea
ter seems perceptible.
These are the statements which
come from officials of the city's pub
lie Libraries, who declare that a new
phenomenon has been observed-the
croWding Of branch libraries during
the morning hours as we'll as during
the afternoon and evening.
The recent rapid increase in the
patronage of the branch libraries is
attributed chiefly to unemployment
and to lower wages.
The two years preceding last Oc-
tober had been marked by decrease
in the demand for books at the
branches, although the normal in
crease continued at the main library.
Library officials hesitated to give
They remarked that both increases
and decreases in library attendance
in other cities of the country had
been laid to high wages. The con-
clusioH that economic conditions had
a direct bearing upon library pat
ronage was forced upon them by the
flocking of men into the branches at
the inception of the Industrial de-
preston.
Most Of Greater New York's branch
libraries are crowded these days
from the time of the opening at 9
a. m. to the time of the closing at
p. m. At the main library building
on Fifth avenue overcroWd1ng is
chronic. The facilities have been
overtaXed for the last five years. IL
brary officials say.
1T is Inherent in any public util-
ity service in New York that it
should be outgrown before it is
ready for use" said one Of the
library officials. TT seems to be
impossible to provide book service
beyond the saturation point If the
library building were extended to
cover Bryant square all the seats
would probably be occupied as soon
as the addition was completed"
So great has been the demand for
books at the branches with the re-
sultant wear and tear that the total
of the volumes in the .forty7four
and Richmo1d-the jurisdiction of
the New York Public library-is &C
tually decreasing, a reduction in the
appropriation for purchase Of books
has been coincident with the increase
in the use of the branch library ga
Cilities.
The main building Of the New York
public library is open every day of
the year and, except for Christmas.
Fourth of July and Labor day, there
is an even greater demand for its
facilities on holidays than at other
times. Frequently in the main read
ing room, one Of the largest in the
world, every one of the 500 seats is
DccIDtpd.

Further Investigation
OF Ventilating Tunnel
Being Made by Bureau

WASHINGTON, March 15.-Fur-
Their Investigations on ventilation Of
the projected Hudson river vehicular
tunnel between New York City and
New Jersey are being made by the
bureau of mines in cooperation with
the tunnel commissions of both
states. The main problem presented
is that of rendering the air in the
tunnel safe for drivers while hun
dreds of automobiles are eXhauStlng
gases from their motors.
The bureau of mines has built a
model of the tunnel at Urbana,
Were the University of Illinois is
located, and is conducting expert
ments to determine the best method
of moving the required amount OF
air through the tunnel.
A number of Yale university stu
dents recently volunteered their
services in tests to determine the
effect of the motor gases on the hu-
man system Other experiments have
been made by the bureau at Pitts
burg, to determine the amount of air
necessary to be mixed with the
gases to render them harmless.
A final check on all experiments
will be made at the Bruceton, Pa,
experimental station, where an
ovaI-shaped tunnel having similar
construction QuClS 10 IloSe plopooCu

To Hear Arguments
In Southern Pine Suit

ST. LOUIS, March 15.--Argu-
ments were scheduled to be heard
before Federal Judge Faris here to-
day in the suit of the government
looking toward dissolution Of the
Southern Pine association.
Charging violation of the Sher-
man antitrust law, the government
is seeking an injunction against the
association, 81 corporations and SO
individuals, to end an alleged con-
spiracy to curtail the supply and in
crease the price of yellow pine lum-
Der.
A motion has been filed that Judge
Faris disqualify himself for hear
ing the case on the ground he is pre-
JUDGED against several of the indi
vidual defendants, who were mem
bers Of the Southern Pine Manufac
turers' association in 1913. Judge
Faris, then a member Of the Missouri
supreme court, wrote the opinion
holding that organization violated
the state antitrust law.

PRESIDENT HARDING
HAS TROUBLES WITH
PARTY PATRONAGE

WASHINGTON, March, 15-Pat-
ronage troubles are forcing Presi-
dent Harding to neglect temporarily
the big international problems de-
manding his attention.
Even domestic questions are for
the most part untouched because
about 80 per cent of the presidents
working time since his inauguration
has been devoted to listening to
claims of office seekers or their
hackers.
Mr.. Harding's worst difficulties
center in the shipping board. Because
of the demand of shipping and bust
ness men generally that the new
board be appointed quickly, the presi-
dent is devoting most of his time to
it, but he has not found a suitable
chairman. He probably will lay his
troubles before the cabinet which
meets today.
Cabinet to Take UP Question
The cabinet also is expected to
take up the question of recognizing
the government departments.
Although the question will be fully
threshed out during the next few
cabinet meetings, it is predicted that
nothing of a sweeping character will
be undertaken for many months
probably not until after the next reg
ular session of congress meets next
December. Cabinet members have
decided that they can do no more than
make minor changes within their own
departments until congress has en-
acted a law providing for the shift
ing around of bureaus from one de-
partment TO another.
The decision to hold up for reor-
ganization does not meet the ap-
prevail of all of President Harding s
advisers, it is known. Some of them
believe that unless the reorganiza-
ton Is accomplished within six
months, the popular demand for 1t
will have subsidized while the opposi-
ton to it will have increased enough
to defeat it. 1t is impossible. how
ever, to make sweeping changes
without congressional action.
Benson May Remain
President Harding expected to send
another batch of nominations to the
senate today. 1t was doubtful if the
shipping board would be among
James A. Farrell, president of the
United States Steel corporation, as
chairman of the shipping board, but
Mr.. Farrell would not take the job.
R. A. c. Smith, former dock commits
sioner at New York who was under
vigorously opposed by Republican
political leaders in New York.
Meanwhile Mr.. Harding is leaning
on Admiral Benson, the present
chairman, to keep the board func-
tIoning until new members can be
selected. Admiral Benson can con-
tinue on the board under Mr.. Har-
ding If he so desires, it is believed.
President Harding is expected to
give his consent to an adjournment
OF the senate today and this will
leave him free Of congress until April

ERIE. Pa.-Gabriel1e D"Annunzio,

Fiume after the armistice, sings
of his love for Luisa Bacarro, the
Venetian pianist, whom he has just
married, in letters to Countess Italia

the heart"
The soldiers called for an encore
Rising, trembling, from her piano, the
artist begged them to desist, saying,
II have given you all there is Of
me-"
This, the poet says, was their first
meeting.
More concerts, more meetings.
Now D'Annunzio has written a
booklet to the beauty and artistry
of his bride to commemorate the first
concert at F'iume.
D'Annunzio describes his wife as
having a white face framed in deep
black hair, brows and nose like
Psyche, an upper lip like that Of the
lower lip shows great nobility of
character. Her neck. he says, has
lines like her music" something
which captures the hearts of all"
D'Annunzio and his fiance fled
from Fiume in an airplane. At his
villa he keeps four horses, two auto
mobiles and a large retinue of faith
full friends.
81 am writing my autobiography
now" he says, "out 1 still believe that
my duty is to attempt again to take
Fiume."
