MRS. SHARP KILLED
IN RUNAWAY SUNDAY
ON WAY TO NEIGHBORS FOR
VISIT WHEN THROWN FROM
BUGGY AND KILLED.
Caught In Wheel
Body Dragged Some Distance While
Team Was Beyond Control On
Country Road

Mrs. Edward Sharp, who resided
with her husband and family on a
ranch near Fort Ellis, east of Boze-
man, was killed last Sunday after
noon when a team her daughter was
driving ran away, throwing her to
the ground in such manner as to
cause instant death Mrs. Sharp
and her daughter Maude were on
their way to the home of Mr.. and
Alrs..A. H. Stafford to spend the aft
6'noon, 5r son Gerald accompany
ing them on horseback.
In some map-er the team became
frightened and Started to lun away.
Mrs. Sharp occupied a back seat in
the buggy, and made an attempt to
aid her daughter in bringing the
team under control. While doing so
she was thrown from the buggy, her
head striking it in such a manner as
to cause her death. The daughter
was able TO keep the team in the
road until they turned into the farm
house yard of A. H. Stafford, where
they came in contact with the gran
airy and broke loose from the buggy.
Assistance was at once summoned
and Mrs. Sharp taken from the wreck
of the buggy, She was carried into
the Stafford home and everything
possible done to save her life. A
physician was at once called, but
she had expired before his arrival
An examination of Mrs. Sharp re-
vealed heavy abrasion over the left
eye and one upon the back of her
head, these testifying as to the man
ner in which her life had been lost
The physician pronounced it as his
opinion that she had met almost in

PRAISE WEST GALLATIN
BEAUTIFUL SCENERY
Visitor From California States The
Highway Mere Attractive Than
Any He Travelled

West Gallatin canyon contains more
interesting scenery for the 90 miles
of its length than almost any other
highway in the United States accord
ing to the opinion of Newton ]. Skin
ner of Los Angeles Cal. who travers-
ed that route from Yellowston Park
to Bozeman last Friday. Mr.. Skinner
was passing through the city on his
way north to see Glacier park and to
travel through Canada to Banff and
through the Canadian country back
to the coast.
"In all my travels about the count
ry, Mr.. Skinner stated, There is no
stretch of highway more picturesque
or more wonderful and those who miss
seeing it loose half of the pleasure
of a trip to the Yellowstone Park.
We drove our car at a rate of less
than - miles an hour coming down
from West Yellowstone, so that we
might enjoy the beautiful views"
There is no reason why the great
er portion of tourists passing out of
Yellowstone Park should not return
to the Yellowstone Trail by coming
down the West Gallatin to Bozeman
A little more pushing upon the part
of the people of Bozeman to get word
to travellers that the road is in good
shape for cars to travel, will do it
Another thing which / would reco-
mend, is the posting of the road tc
the highway from the park to the
make it easy for strangers to follow
the highway from the park to the
city. This will be of great service
and the tourist will appreciate it,"
Mr.. Skinner has been prominent II
banking circles in Los Angeles fol
many years, having organized ths
first day and night bank to be oper.
ated upon the Pacific coast. HI
travels extensively each summer il
his car, and the trip through Mont
ana this year proved surprising t.
him for the wonders he found. Hs
stopped at Bozeman for a short visit
with Mr.. ]. Fl. Dawes.

OFF TO TiNKY- WINKLE LAND!

THE Fairy Queen had Just told

Away they sailed through the

At last they came to the Tinky-

It was a queer place. Much queer

edges.
But what was the difference? If
any Of the Tinky-Winlders fell off,
it wasn't any worse than a sparrow
falling off a roof. He could fly with

In Sumter county the crop has an
even chance Of hitting close to its
last seasons yield, it may go above
the 1921 returns few hundred bales
but in the other sections of. the state,
particularly in North Georgia, OBJ
servers find that a serious loss has
occurred during the past 10 days.
Optimism in the cotton market, in
the face of such returns, means but
one thing, the determination of the

N>NN~
IS a chance for the farmer to heIp
himself this year, a chance that has
been lacking in the past, for he has
two factors in his favor. One Of
them is the fact that a large amout
OF cotton will be pooled and held,
the other is the fact that if the specu-
lators actually find that thew are
net deluding the producer and face
a determination on his part to force
real market price for his product,
the price will be Forthcoming.
A prominent banker in this
section, just completing sur
vey of the conditions in the cotton
fields, finds that the crop in North
Georgia and n laany sectors of the
South Georgia section, will not
equal the last years yield.
Even the government report,
which a few days ago boosted the
market $3.50 a bale, has not been
sufficient to hold the market togeth-
er and there is an apparent effort
on the part of the buyers to minim-
ize the report and indirectly declare
that it is not real report of con
ditions.
Sumter county is a bright spot in
a rather doubtful cotton area this
year. If the market finds that the
government report was correct and
that it faces another slash in esti-
mate at the close of the month, there
is every indication that the price of
cotton will be such that farmers will
be able to make up in price differ
ence, some of the boil weevil loss
that the past two weeks of wet
weather has entailed.
