PEANUT IN THROAT
CAUSES CHILD'S DEATH
MILLER COUNTY MAN MAKES
GRUELLING DRIVE IN Eff
FORT TO SAVE DAUGHTER.

ALBANY, Ga.-James A. Henry, a
well-known citizen of Colquitt, county
seat of Miller county, lost gruelling
race with death when his little daugh-
ter, Rosa, two years old, died here at
the hospital before an operation could
save her life
The little girl sucked a peanut into
her windpipe, where it lodged and
threatened to choke her to death. She
was placed in an automobile and car
ried to cambridge as fast as the wheels
could turn. but it was found mpossR
Bile to dislodge the peanut there. It
was decided to bring the little girl to
Albany and the trip was made in rec
ord time but it was found at the hos
pital that the paroxysms had produced
pneumonia, and death resulted shortly
after the party reached the hospital.
The trip from cambridge to Albany
was made in the heaviest downpour
of rain that has flooded this section in
several years

SENATE is FACING A
BIG LEGISLATIVE JAM
NATIONAL LEGISLATORS MAY
NOT GET AWAY FROM CAP
ITAL FOR VACATION.

The United States senate faces one
of the worst jams in its history as i'm
portant bills are being pushed to the
front for action. Probably the most
important legislation awaiting action
is the tariff, and this one problem may
cause congress to remain in session all
summer. The tariff is followed closely
by the bonus, the army and navy ap-
preparation bills, the administration
merchant marine bill, and the regular
routine of important appropriation
bills.
Advocates of the bonus are trying
to get an agreement with the chapions
of the tariff permitting the bonus to
be sandwiched in between the days on
which the tariff debate will rise and
fall in public interest. Anticipating a
lull now and then, the bonus support
ers want to bring the bonus to a vote
and pass the problem on to the presi-
dent. 1t is said that NJ. Harding may
make a personal fight for the post
ponement of the bonus problem until
the money to pay the bonus is actually
in sight
Nothing, perhaps, is closer to Mr..
Harding's heart than the merchant ma
rine bill. He regards it, his friends
say, as the greatest opportunity for
America since the civil war 1t is pre-
dicted that the bill will pass the house
all right, but it may also strike snags
in the senate. The debate on the tariff
is expected to consume a great amount
of time, and for that reason, the
chances of senators and representatives
spending any length of time in the
autumn campaign are said to be grow
ing smaller each day. There may be
short reccsses just before the Novem-
Der elections, but a good old-fashioned
tariff summer is predicted in Washing
ton.

TOWN MOVED TWO
MILES ON WHEELS
OSBORN, OHIO, TAKES TO THE
HILLS TO AVOID FLOODS.
HOUSES Carried AWAY.

OSBORN, Ohio.-E. w. La Plant
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, has started to
move the whole town of Osborn, with
population of 1850, out of the Mi
ami river bottoms back mile and a
half into the hills, in safety from
floods, for $250,000, or, if new founda-
tons are laid for the buildings, for
$350,000
There are approximately three hun
dred dwellings, garages, barns and
sheds in Osborn, in addition to TWEEN
ty-one business houses, school houses
and several churches.
The signed contract specifies that al
least two hundred and forty-nine OF
these buildings are to be moved to
the new site which is adjacent to Fair
field, though Osbornites are determin-
ed they will not incorporate in the
other town. They intend to maintain
their own town organization, although
moving to a new location.
Seven gangs of eight men each
working the entire time for two years
will be necessary to complete the
mammoth job.
La Plant recently moved a six-story
building of the Iowa State University
at Iowa City more than block.

DAIRY cow WINNER
OVER COCOANUT cow
.BOSSY'S SUPREMACY IS REC.
OGNIZED BY CONGRESS IN
PASSAGE OF MILK BILL.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-After a
25-year fight against her hated rival,
the famous 'cocoanut cow Of the
South Sea islands, the American bred
dairy cow won a congressional vic
tory today with the passage OF the
Voigt pure milk bill in the house by
vote of $50 to 40.
The bill will prohibit the interstate
and export traffic in all "oiled" or sim
ilations of evaporated milk which are
made out of skim milk and cocoanut
oil.
Friends of the measure denounced
the skim milk cocoanut oil compounds
as deficient in the butter fats and
vitamines which have made real milk
standard and universal article of
food for ages" They declared that the
labels tend to deceive the public and
that retailers commonly sell it as milk,
making a huge profit thereby.
Congressman Voigt, Wisconsin, au-
thor of the bill, led the fight for the
bill. Congressman Aswell, Louisiana,
led an attack by southern democrats
against it on the ground that such
products had a certain place in the
market and could be made equally
well of peanut, cotton seed and sun
flower oils.

Sha0en Legs and
minimum" Dresses
In Style at Races

PARIS.-As result OF the heat
wave lace OF all varieties returned
to fashionable favor at Longchamps
on Sunday, when transatlantic So
cietv turned out en- masse for the
Cadran stakes, one of the biggest
races of the season. -Four of the five
entries were ridden by American
jockeys.
In an effort to stay cool women
wore gowns of the flimsiest possible
nature, seasonable innovations in
Guiding "slashed backs" bare shout
ders, bare legs and crocodile side
sandals.
Long handled parasols of queer
shapes and vivid colors were carried.
Many women insisted that their es-
corts carry the parasols, so the Wo-
mems hands could be free to carry
lap-dogs, monkeys and other fash
ionable pets.
The biggest sensation, however,
was when Pierre Des Moulins, all
actor and son of the noted author,
started the sockless fad, his careful
" shaven limbs being incased in
white buck trousers, surmounted by
a black cutaway and tall grey
felt hat
Andre de Fouquieres, a famous
dandy, pronounced the new fashion
''immodest and unsuitable to men,"
He also condemned the popular male
mode of V-cut shirts.

Advertisement Of -Four

IIOWERD, S. Done of the
M S persistent advertisers in
South Dakota, and a firm believer
in the use of printers ink, is David
Theophilus, a business man of this
city. In this connection there is an
amusing little story in reference to
one feature of his use of printers
ink.
In addition to other business in
terests he conducts an elevator,
and for a period of "a years he ran
the same advertisement in How
ard newspaper, the advertisement
reading: Dave Theophilus Sells
Salt"
After he had seen this line in the
paper year after year an Alabama
subscriber got tired of reading the
same spiel" and wrote Theophilus
a postal card, with these words:
For heavens sake, haven't you
sold that salt yeti"
Theophilus looked up his record
of sales and replied:
"Have sold $4,000 barrels since
you commenced reading that adver-
tisement, but still have some left"

NEW QUEEN OF SEA
MAKES MAIDEN TRIP
MAJESTIC, WORLDS LARGEST
VESSEL, OUTDISTANCES ALL
OTHERS IN SPEED.

The Majestic, the worlds largest
ship, made her maiden voyage from
Southampton, England to New York
city in five and one-half days, one of
the fastest trips made since before the
war She is now on her way back to
England, after having been given a
rousing reception in the New York
harbor.
The Majestic, which is of 10000
tons displacement, is not only the
largest but probably the speediest pas
senger ship now afoat. She has a rec
ord of rs knots an hour, and her en-
gines are still stiff When they are
limbered up her officers believe she
will make at least four more knots,
and in her summer runs eclipse the
transatlantic record, now held by the
Mauritania.
Expect to Race Mauritania.
Probably the first week in August,
when the Mauretania is coming this
way and the Majestic is Europe
bound, the two giants will race. BY
that time, officers of the Majestic say,
her eight mammoth turbines, each
weighing 375 tons, will drive the Ma
jestic at top speed
The Majestic was built in Germany
as the Bismarck laid up in Hamburg
during the war, and then sold to Eng
land by the reparations commission.
She then was converted to an OF!
burner, made more luxurious, and
named the Majestic.
Loaded as she was on her maiden
voyage the Majestic weighed close to
$4,000 tons, making her the heaviest
boat in the cross-Atlantic service. The
liner can accommodate 400 passen-
gers. There are 1,245 state rooms, Az
of which are first class. In the second
cabin there are 212 state rooms, in the
third sol. Every room has electric
lights, $4,000 bulbs being used. There
are eight kitchens on the Majestic and
five special dining rooms, also dance
floors, swimming pools and Libraries.
For a round trip voyage the ship S
larder must carry 131 tons OF meat
1000 boxes of> apples, oranges and
grapefruit one ton of grapes; one OF
ice cream; three tons Of jam and mar
ma1ade; $4,000 bottles of ale; 1900

VETS MAY EXPECT
RUDE AWAKENING
YET THEY ARE SURE, CONFI-
DENT, JOYFUL, THOROUGH
LY LIT" ON OPTIMISM.

ATLANTA, Ga-That attempts to
weaken prohibition enforcement are
doomed to fall, is the concensus OF
opinion here among prohibition lead
ers and members of the Anti-Saloon
League. Here's an interesting and at
the same time true statement OF the
situation, according to local prohibi-
tionists. 1t is new way of putting 1t,
being a word picture which the vets
can we'll understand:
Alcohol is flung from its proud emil
nence. The highball sinks to the
small importance OF the unessent1al.
The cocktail, once supreme IN its
proud field, retreats before the APP
proach Of an even sharper kick In
word. the vets are no longer driven
to the guile and craft OF hunting for
those obliging but reprehenslble gen
tlemen who peddles hooch for great
price. They can get drunk on some
thing else. They are drunk on it now.
The thing that thus goes merrlly to
their heads and makes them dream
dreams and see fair visions IS cam
raign optimism. Never was there a
iordlier spree in the old days OF cafes
and saloons than the intoxication
which now up1ifts, cheers and deludes
the lovers of liquor in America.
"Lit" on Optimism.
The press IS full of their paeans OF
victory. The cities hum with their or
SANITATION" work. A thousand public
Rails echo the proud predictions OF
their orators that next fall wet" law
makers are to be sent to congress
from ten pivotal states" We are told
in their publicity matter that twenty
national organizations" are on the
warpath against the 'drys."
Not the repeal of the eighteenth
amendment is desired at this time, 1t
is explained, but modification or re-
peal of the Volstead law And oratory.
money. enthusiasm and intensive cam
paigning are to turn the trick" Their
banners take the breeze. Their hurrahs
rock the hills. They are. sure, conf
dent, joyful, thoroughly "lit" on OPP
timism.
The Morning After.
But. as is the case in every spree,
there will come an awakening, a dull,
grey hour III the daWning Whel con
ISOLATION is ardently desired and cool
ing applications feverishly inplored.
This optimism "whizz" will have its
"mornng after.
There are exceptions, of course; but,
on the whole, there is far more So
briefly among the young now than
there was before prohibition became
a reality. This one fact alone means
that the attempts to weaken prohibit
ton enforcement are doomed to fall.
