1S BALES OFF OF IL ACRES.
DIR. Houseal Makes Fine Crop on
Small Farm.

Newberry, Oct. 19.-There have
been many stories going the rounds
as to bad luck with cotton this year.
Some farmers claim to have made no
cotton at all, while others say what
they did make was destroyed by the
boil weevil. One man, however, has
a happy story in connection with his
cotton this year. DR.. W. G. Houseal
of this city reports that he has pick
ed 13 bales from IL acres on his
land near to Helena, a suburb OF
Newberry. DR.. Houseal has small
piece of land at Helena, which he has
improved greatly during the past
few years. When he bought it the
land was almost worthless. 1t was
on this land he made 13 bales on IL
acres. DR.. Houseal states that he
had hoped to get two bales to the
acre and had it not been for the boil
weevil he would have gotten that
much or more.

ABANDONED TWINS IN OCONEE.
Babies Crying Attracts Attention to
Abandoned Well.

Walhalla, Oct. 22.-Silas Ridley, a
farmer, residing IS miles northwest of
Walhalla on the Toll Gate road, early
yesterday morning while out on his
farm, heard cries of a child. After a
considerable investigation he discov-
cred that the cries came from an
abandoned we'll. He, with the assist
ance of some of his neighbors, enter
ed the we'll and found two babies,
twins, aged about six months. Both
of the little fellows were removed to
Mr.. Ridley's home, and Mrs. Ridley
took charge of them. Mr.. Ridley then
came to Walhalla ond reported his
discovery to Sheriff Alexander.
Early this morning policemen ar
rested couple near High Falls who
gave their name as Mr.. and Mrs. Ell
lis Hall, from Fountain Inn. This
couple was brought Immediately to
the county jail where they are alleged
to have made full confession. 1t is
said Mrs. Hall states that she was
advised by her father and her hus-
band to get rid Of the children. Sew
eral days ago the couple with four
children are said to have been seen to
pass over the Stump House mountain
road walking, accompanied by two
small children, and that these were
twin babies. A day later the couple
is said to have returned riding on a
truck and that the twins were not
along x6is time Mrs. Hall is said to
have stated that when they observed
this we'll, to which was attached a
bucket, rope and windlass, that she
lowered her children into this well
under the instruction of her husband,
and when this was done they began
to wend their way backward toward
Fountain Inn.
DR.. H. F. Thode has made trip
to fine Toll Gate to attend these aban-
do1ed babies and says that a hip of
one of the babies is broken, but that
the other child is in good physical
condition. It is believed that the
abandonment and exposure of the
children will not cause their death as
both of the little fellows readily take
nourishment.

NEGRO KILLS TWO.
Wife and Mother-in-Law Die in Home
and White Man Injured.

Conway, Octf 21.1A double mur-
der was committed in the Burgess
section of Horny county early last
night. A negro, Josh Brown, shot
and killed his wife and his mother
in-law, Lima Gore, after shooting
twice at Van Turbeville. He ,es-
capped before the alarm was given and
has not yet been caught Scores OF
men, white and black, were today
securing the lower sections of Horny
and Georgetown counties.
It seems that day before yesterday
John Brown had some disagreement
with Mr. Turbeville on whose place,
Woodstock, he had a small crop this
year. Yesterday he was at work as
usual and Mr.. Turbeville was also at
work in the same field with him. He
left the field few minutes before Mr..
Turbeville late in the afternoon. Mr..
Turbeville thought nothing strange Of
this. Later on Mr.. Turbeville started
home and having to open gate he
got down from his wagon and as he
got down the negro shot him twice
in the shoulder, inficting a very
severe wound. His condition is seri-
Gus today.
After shooting Mr.. Turbeville who
managed to shoot twice with a rife
which he had in the wagon, John
Brown went back to his home and
calling his wife to the door shot her
dead as she opened the door. A
small child in the yard ran to give
the alarm. In the meantime, it is
presumed that Liza Gore, whose
daughter was the wife Of Brown, clos
ed the door. but when neighbors
reached the scene they found the door
broken down and both Liza Gore and
her daughter dead The authorities
were notified and are making dill
gent effort to apprehend Brown.

BURN RESISTING ARREST.
While Firing From House Hay is
Caught on Fire and Negroes Die.

Orange, Va, Oct. 23.-Two ne
groes, suspected of having been imph-
Gated in the murder yesterday OF
Sheriff w. G.. Bond and Town Serg-
cant Julian F. Boyer, were burned to
death today in barn near the scene
of the double murder.
The barn is supposed to have been
set on fire by discharges from the
shotguns operated by the two ne
groes. The body of one of them, Wal
ter Ware, was found in the ruins and
that of the other fugitive is suspected
to be still beneath the debris. Seven
members of the posse were slightly
wounded in the attack.
Sheriff Bond and Sergeant Boyer
are supposed to have been killed
when they attempted to collect a fine
imposed upon Ware for violation OF
the prohibition laws. When they fail
ed to return today, a search was start
ed which resulted in the discovery
of the bodies near the negro's home.
A posse was quickly formed which
located Ware in barn on the prop
erty Of J. P. Taylor, Of Richmond,
about two miles from Orange. Ware
refused to surrender and opened fire
when the posse started to rush his
place of refuge It was not until then
that the officers learned that Sec
ond negro was in hiding, the flashes
from Wares gun being accompanied
bv reports from another, directed
from separate part Of the building.
When the attack bad been in progress
a few minutes dark clouds of smoke
arose from the barn, in which was
stored more than 100 tons of hay. 1t
burned rapidly but, so far as could
be seen, those inside made no effort
to escape.
The body of Ware was later found
and, nearby, half melted coil OF
copper pipe.
= Considerable excitement followed
the arrival here Of the bodies OF
Sheriff Bond and Sergeant Boyer,
each of whom leaves widow and
four children.

REPORTS GERMANY HAPPY.
Augusta German-American Returns
After Sojourn in Der Vaterland.

Louis Sehler, Augustus Grand
Old German" got back home yester-
day afternoon at three o'clock, after a
four-month sojourn in Der Vaterland.
He visited Hamburg, Bremen, Berlin,
and all the towns with which he
formerly had to do before coming to
America and Augusta.
every farmer in Germany" Mr.
Sehler said, ''has plenty to eat, good
prospects and contentment. What
strikes me most is the Joyous atti-
tude which the body polite displayed
at the deposition of the 'junkers.
They love their country, but not their
former kaiser. Germany Is indeed
in a happy state. There are wonder
full crops, and every farmer has his
own threshing machine"
The Augustan was i'll for three
weeks in Hamburg, but his Augusta
friends who went with him remained
with him. He was at the home of his
sisters in Hamburg.
Shortly before they docked at Bre-
men Mr.. Sehler said, port commits
sioners and doctors boarded the YES
sci to examine the papers of those
who wished to enter. Because he had
no passport-due to some misunder-
standing commissioner Informed
him he could not enter.
"What?" shrieked the German
American. ~"I fought for my country
in the Franco-Prussian war in 1871
cannot come back to see my family
after thirty-eight years absence?"
"You may enter" said the COM
sioner gravely.
The party left Augusta last June
12, and arrived back in New York
last Tuesday. Mr.. Sehler brought a
canary bird back, 5000 miles.
"There is plenty to eat, and it is
cheap" he said. And there is very
little unemployment.
Discussing prohibition, the Angus
ta-German said: "You can get any
thing you want over there, but I
didn't see a drunken man all the
time was there
The trip to Germany is especially
significant in view of the difficulty he
experienced in procuring permission
to go abroad. He had lived in Au-
gusta all this time, and had supposed
he was citizen. On the eve Of his
departure, he found he had no papers
to exhibit, and so Attorney E. G.
Kalbfleish had to dig up little used
clause in the statutes to prove his
client was really and truly natural
lied citizen.-Augusta Chronicle.

SENTENCE OF FOX
STAYED ON FRIDAY
NO ELECTROCUTION AT PENI-
TERTIARY THAT DAY.
APPEAL FROM RULING.
Justice Cothran Denies Order i'm Be.
half of Fox and Action Brings
New Plea.

Columbia, Sept. &c. O. Fox,
one of the trio of convicted murder
ers of William Brazell, and the only
one of tine three that was to be elec-
trocuted at the penitentiary today,
will not pay the death penalty as
scheduled this morning.
An appeal from the ruling Of JUS
tice Cothran, who yesterday after
noon refused to grant an order or
writ allowing Fox to appeal his case
to the supreme court, stays the SEN
tence of the condemned man, accord
ing to Solicitor Callison, the attor-
ney generals office and lawyers in
terested in the case.
Neither Fox, S. J. Kirby nor Jesse
Gappins, the three convicted murder
ers, will be electrocuted today as
originally sentenced by the court at
Lexington. Gappins appealed prop
erly and no question as to the stay
of his sentence has arisen. Kirby
saved his life Tuesday when he re-
fused to abandon the appeal made by
his former attorney, and Fox took
the last chance available yesterday to
save his life.
Justice Cothran heard H. A. I.
Rosenberg, attorney for Fox, at the
supreme court room yesterday after
noon on writ of habeas corpus is
sued by himself Wednesday. At the
hearing Attorney Rosenberg asked
for an order allowing Fox to appeal
to the supreme court and Justice
Cothran denied the order of writ.
Following this denial Mr.. Rosenberg
Immediately served notice of appeal
from the ruling of Justice COthran.
Solicitor Callison and Attorney Gen
eral Wolf accepted the service of the
notice of intention to appeal. This
notice automatically stays the sent
ence against Fox, as Mr.. Rosenberg
will have 80 days to complete his ap-
peal from the ruling. The stay of
sentence is certain, it was said, as the
law in defining the supreme court and
it's Jurisdiction, says; Each of the
justices Of the supreme court shall
have the same power at chambers, to
administer oauhs, issue writs of ha-
beas corpus, mandamus, quo warran-
to, certiorari, prohibition, etc., as
when in open court: Provided, an ap-
peal from his decision shall be al
lowed to the supreme court"
Fox Not Present.
In appearing before Justice Goth
ran for the order to save Fox's life,
Mr.. Rosenberg waived the presence
of the condemned man and acted
solely upon his own initiative. A
COPY of the writ had not been served
on Col. A. K. Sanders, superintendent
of the penitentiary, and he-did not
produce Fox at the hearing. Colonel
Sanders had suggested that the pro-
ceedings be held at the penitentiary,
but this was not necessary, as Mr..
Rosenberg waived the presence of
the defendant. More than 100 per-
sons were in front of the state house
at o'clock to see Fox and the court
room was crowded at the hearing.

ALABAMA MINISTER
FOUND NOT GUILTY
STEPHENSON ACQUITTED ON
MURDER CHARGE.
DAY OF ARGUMENTS.
Solicitor Closes With Appeal to Jury
Not to Disregard
Evidence.

Birmin CHAM, Oct. 21.-A verdict OF
not guilty was returned by the jury
shortly after 10 O'Clock tonight in
the case of Rev. Edwin R. Stephen
son, tried for the killing of Father
James E. Coyle. The jury had been
out since O'Clock. -.
) The Indictment of the grand jury
against the preacher, the pistol which
he is alleged to have used in shoop-
ing father Coyle shortly after the
priest had joined his daughter, Ruth,
and Pedro Gussman, a Puerto Rican
Catholic, in wedlock, and a pair OF
suspenders worn by Stephenson at the
time of the, shooting, which were
offered as evidence at the trial, were
handed to the jurymen as they re
tired.
The closing argument for the state
was made by Solicitor Joseph R. Tate,
who contended that Ruth Gussman, |,
Stephenson's daughter, was 1S years
old and therefore had the right to
choose her relation for herself. In
answer to the attack of Hugo Black,
defense attorney who preceded him,
upon a state witness, Mr.. Tate de-
clared that, all it was necessary for
the state to prove was the death OF
Father Coyle, that it occurred in JET
ferson county, show the means of the
killing and that the shooting occurred
before the grand jury had indicted
the accused.
Tate declared that the defense had
offered a number of excuses for the
shooting but said none of them were
sufficient. Regarding the self-defense
the solicitor held that the defense
would have to prove that the defend
ant was free from fault in bringing
on the fight, that he was in imminent
danger of death or bodily harm and
that there was no reasonable avenue
of escape for him.
The solicitor declared that had the
priest had held of the defendants S
suspenders at the time of the shoot
ing, they would have been so near
each other that there would have been
powder burns on Father Coyle. He
declared that it was peculiar that
both court and county officials were
4tau on the side of bhe defendant. "
: eff you go into the jury room and
kick out the evidence" he said, "and
render verdict of not guilty you
viii have all the narrow-minded, fuz-
zy-necked people pat you on the back,
but the remainder of your lives your
conscience will sting you"
Judge Fort began his charge ten
minutes after Mr.. Tate concluded his
argument. He declared it was in the
jury's power to find the defendant
either guilty or innocent of murder
in the second degree, manslaughter in
the first degree or manslaughter in
fJoe second degree

LEAGUE LIVE CAMPAIGN ISSUE.
Former President Reported as Say.
ing League is Goin,, Concern.

Washington, Oct. 22.-The bugga-
boo of the League of Nations will
stalk the candidates for president
in 1924, former President Wilson be-
lieves, it was learned tonight.
The league will be one of the big
issues in the campaign, he holds.
This was obtained by prominent
Democrat who talked with Wilson
within the last. few days. He said
Wilson viewed the ratification of the
separate treaty with Germany as a
disgraceful act. Wilson believes that
the league issue is still alive and ex-
poets that public sentiment will be-
gin to swing more markedly toward it
from now on.
He holds that the league is going
concern and that ultimately the
United States must become member
of it.
Wilson did not discuss the ap-
preaching armament conference.
Plans for the congressional cam
paign next fall were discussed with
Wilson briefly. He was advised that
the sfull dinner pail'' is likely to be
the chief issue. Thousands Of men
will still be out of work then and
business will not have recovered from
the present siege of dep ION. Dem
ocratic party leaders believe. They
see a gradual improvement in busi-
ness conditions but do not expect it to
be sufficient by next fall to bring back
general prosperity.
In 1924, however, the situation will
be different, it was said. by then
business should be normal and larger
questions of policy will be pushed to
the fore. The campaign then will re-
volve around tariff and taxation poll
cies of the Reau blicans and especially
around it's foreign policy. Ex-Presi-
dent Wilson agreed with this a1aiy-
sis of the political situation. it was
said, and believes the public will
by that time see the need Of Amer
lean participation in the League of
Nations.
1t was not indicated that Wilson
will take any part in the next politi-
cal campaign although his health is
much improved.
He looks much better than he did
at Inauguration time and could even
make a speech if he wanted to, his
friends believe. There is no indica-
ton, however, that he intends to &C
cept any of the numerous invitations
which he receives every day.
Wilson appeared in good spirits
and told several humorous stories
during one particular conversation.
He has not yet regadned the complete
use of his left hand but 1t is improv-
ing under constant massaging. As he
talked Wilson rubbed his left hand
almost constantly.
Admiral Grayson is quoted as say
ing that the ex-president would have
been a we'll man today had it not been
for the defeat of the Versailles treaty
by the senate. He has been deeply
affected by each reverse the Republi-
can administration has given his for
eign policies and the reaction on his
health his not been for the best at all
times, it is said.
