PEANUT IN WINDPIPE.
FATAL TO LITTLE GIRL

ALBANY, May 81. - James A.
Henry, well-known citizen of Colquitt
lost grueling race with death Mon
day when his little daughter, Rosa,
2 years old, died here at the Phoebe
Putney Memorial hospital, before an
operation could save her life.
The little girl sucked 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 wheel
could turn. But it was found i'm
possible to dislodge the peanut there
1t was decided to bring the little girl
to Albany, and the trip was made
in record time, but it was found at
the hospital that paroxysms had pro-
duced initiation, which develop
ed pneumonia, and death resulted
shortly after the party reached the
hospital.
The trip from Bainbridge to AL
.bany was made in the heaviest down
pour of rain that has flooded this
section in several years.

COTTON MARKET
HOLDING STRONG
Some Selling On Private Condi-
ton Reports Fails To Break
Price

Despite general profit taking in
the cotto, market this week, follow
ing the remarkable recens rise, the
price continued today to hold strong
Strict middling spots We're quoted at
20 IL cents IN Americus, with the
demand good and little offered for
sale. Less than $50 bales had been
sold in Americas this week up To
this afternoon.
Private reports showing a higher
condition than has been estimated up
to this time were issued today, and
this brought about some selling on
the exchanges, but failed to breal,
the market perceptibly. Continued
rains throughout the cotton belt are
giving substantial support to the
bull control of the market at this
time.
]. W. Jay & Co., New York brok-
ers, in new bulletin says:
There are two major factors oper-
ating to maintain the present price
Of cotton and to establish higher
prices as the season progresses. The
one is the unsatisfied deferred de-
mand for the remnant of past crops,
and the other, weather perils and
boil weevil menace to the new crop

the people Of the world to procure
the essentials of life. National econ
omy is disorganized in more than one
country, but the people of all ma
tons have a considerable measure Of
prosperity and the satisfaction of
their simple wants is a potential eco
nomic force. Reserves of raw cot
ton and its products have gradually
been reduced, as these wants have
been supplied, until now we are on
the verge of actual exhaustion.
cat no time since the Civil War
have the worlds cotton resources
been so uncertain, and the immediate
future promises little relief from
anxiety. The American cotton crop
this year is seriously imperiled. 1t
now seems evident that the area
planted is not likely to exceed great
ly the area planted last year. The
weather in the West has so far been
deplorable. In the East the boil
weevil are so numerous that they are
already destroying part of the crop
by feeding upon tender leaves of
sproutlng plapts. In three states
only, Arkansas, Mississippi and North.
Carolina, are crop conditions reas-
onably normal The only prospect
for moderate yield lies in perfect
growing weather henceforth. If
such weather be not vouchsafed, an
other crop failure in the United
States confronts the cotton industry.
