LOYAL TO HER ART;
FAILED IN BUSINESS

The recent failure of Lucille (Lady
Duff-Gordon) In the dressmaking bust
ness is attributed by Louise Dooly,
club editor of the Atlanta Constitution,
to the celebrated Englishwoman's re
fusal to commercialize her genius. She
considered modern styles ugly and in
artistic and refused to design such
clothes. "She proved herself the art
ist,'' says Miss Dooly. "She was loyal
to the principles of art and thereby
proved what the world calls a poor
business woman" Lady Duff-Gordon
took q prominent part on the General
Federation of Women's Clubs biennial
program in New York, and is known
personally to many clubwomen all over
America.

ST. PAUL STOCK MARKET

The liberal receipts of cattle, both
here and elswhere resulted in an un.
evtn trend to values. Extremes of
quality, both n killing cattle as we'll
as Stockers and feeders, have held
their own, but drift to inbetween kinds
has been Enthusiastically lower. declines
Of 25 to so cents being quoted.
FED steers have been in limited num-
bers, but included a small showing
OF finished offerings, a spread of $1,000
to Slips taking in the best matured
steers and yaarlings, with $1,000 an
extreme top for single head, all these
prices being records for the local mar
ket for the year to date. a new high
figure for load lots of rangers was also
established, one load heavy rangers,
1850 lbs. average, sold at $S.25. Bulk
of grass fat steers have been of med

Inbetween grades of she stock felt
the adverse market conditions and

losses of fully 25 TO so cents for the
week, bulk grass fat beef cows now

Shortage of stock ears proved a
handicap in the stOcker and feeder
trade and tended to curtail the out

held their own, but losses of 25 to so
cents are quotable On medium ana
common grades. A spread of $3.50 to
$3.50 is now taking in the bulk Of
stOckers and feeders, with fleshy feed

stOckers on down to $3.50 and under.
Easier prices are the rule in thin she

They discovered the hotel TO be an

worthy Of Laftte and his buccaneers.
AS in many small towns Of Louisiana,
however, the food proved fit for a
king. After n light luncheon Of quail,
crayfsh bisque, and probably Illegal
v~enison, GramOnt sighed regret that
he could eat no more, and set about
inquirlng where the LedanOls farm lay.
There was very little, indeed, to
Paradls. which lay on the bayou but
well away from the railroad. II was a
desolate spot, implanted and unkempt.
The parish seat Of Houma had robbed
II Of all life and growth on the one
hand; on the other, the new oil and
gas district had not yet touched It.
Southwark lay the s~wamp-fully
forty miles Of II, merging by degrees
into the Gulf. Forty miles of cypress
marsh ana winding bayou, uncharted,
uneXulored save by occasional hunters
or -c~mi-occasional sherilfs. No man
knew who or what might be in those
swamps. and no one cared to know.
Tie man who brought in fish or
oysters in his skiff might be a bayou
fisherman. and he might be a MUIR
derer wanted in ten states. Curiosity
was apt to prove extremely unhealthy.
Like the AtChafalaya, where chance
dered elsewhere, the TerrebOnne
swamps have their own secrets and
know how TO keep them.
Gromont had no difficulty in locat-
ing the Ledanois land, and he found
that II was by no means in the swamp.
a part of II, lying closer to Houma,
had been sold and was now included
in the new oil district it was this por-
ton which Joseph Maillard had sold
off.
The remainder, and the largest pOr-
ton. lay north Of Paradis and ran
along the west bank OF the bayou for
half a mile. \ long-abandoned farm,
II was high ground. with the timber
well cleared off and excellently To-
Gated; but tenants were hard TO get
and ehiftlesS when obtained. so that
the place had not been farmed for the
last five years or more. After getting
these facts, Gramont consulted with
Hammond.
"We'd better buy some grub here in
town and arrange TO stay Il couple OF
nights on the farm, If necessary" he
said. There are some buildings there,
so Wen find shelter. Along the bayou
arp summer cottages-I believe some
Of them rather pretentiOus places
and we ought To find the road pretty
decent. IT'S only three or four miles
out Of town"
With some provisions piled in the
car, they SCI forth. The road wound
along the bayou side, past ancient
'Caiun farms and the squat homes Of
fishermen. Here and there had been
placed camps and summer cottages,
nesting amid groups OF huge oaks and
cypress, whose fronds Of silver-gray
moss hung in dropping clusters like
pale ond ghoSrly shrOuds.

books, chiefly law books. In the larger

his eyes closed. From time 10 time
he opened those sparkling black eyes
OF his, and through narrow-slitted lids
directed keen g~lances at the other
two men.
One OF the men was the chief OF

RUN FOR SENATORSHIP

The newest development politically
in this county is the apparent entrance
of l.. A. Reineman into the race for
senator against Roy W. Ritner Dres-
ent incumbent and president OF the
senate at the last session. Petitions
calling for the nomination of Mr..
Reineman as an Independent candi-
date are now in circulation here and
IN the east end of the county. Reports
current say that the petitions ar be-
ing circulated with Mr.. Reineman's
approval and that he intends to make
the race in November. However no
formal announcement on the subject
has been made.
L. A. Reineman is former water
master Of Umatilla county and is now
an orchardist In the east end OF the
county. He is a republican in poll
tics. At the primary election Senator
Ritner had no opponent fer renomi-
.natiOn and his name was also written
in on the democratic ballot. However
the law permits an independent can
didate to enter the race by petition.

who owns big ranch and the Rit-

for work in Grant county cannot be
used because of the intended change
in the route. Mrs. Davis says there
are more people in that region than il
realized by members of the state high
way. commission and that they have
long paid taxes without getting much
in the way of good roads. She says
there would be more people and more
business there If better transportation
were provided. This year many peo
Dle have raised beans and the same
thing was done last year. However
