WHY WE ARE LATE.

Not a type was set on The Mis-
souri, Herald until Friday afternoons
the hour we should go to press. We
had to sacrifice the paper in order,
to deliver on time several important
pieces OF emergency job work,
with which this office has been over
run. We have printed and deliver
ed two briefs, one So and the other
35 pages, besides a big ruin Of regu-'
lar work, some being 10000 impress
sion jobs, having begun the week
with one $4,000, two-color, alternat-
ing sheet, perforated job, that neces-
STATED handling nearly half mil
lion times. And we are short of help
how short we will not say, for
those familiar with the class of
work we have turned out would not
believe it could have been performed
in the time we did it, and we only
did it by working day and night
and forgetting the paper, which
comes to you both late and short.
We hope to do better next week, and
will if we do not continue to be
swamped with emergency jobs that
we cannot refuse our regular GUS
toners

QUEEN OF SHEBA BURNED.

The Queen of Sheba was burned
at the Empress Theatre Thursday
night or, rather, early Friday morn
ing.
1t was a performance not down on
the regular program, and thought
to have been witnessed by an audi
ence of but one.
The movie films of the Queen Of
Sheba were shown to full houses
at the Empress Wednesday and
Thursday nights. There were ten
reels of it and it was a great show
The Queen was arrayed in as much
establishment and pageantry as
when she visited King Solomon $50
years before Christ, but so far as his
tory records, this is the first time
the Queen has ever been burned.
She may have escaped the demons
| of all the ages that have gone since
her day, but she did not land in
Hayti, Pemiscot county, Missouri,
until Wednesday night, October 25,
In the good or bad year of 1922.
After the show, in the quiet hours
OF the early morning, when only the
stars keep sentinel in this city,
some one entered the front door Of
the Empress, went to the operators
| balcony, took three reels of the
Queen of Sheba, retraced his steps
to the main floor, proceeding to the
rear of the building, and there pour
ed coal oil on the films and set them
| afre
About two minutes later C. c..
! Cannon, railroad man, on his way
to work was passing the alley in the
rear of the building, saw the flames,
called for help and with a few buck
cts of water soon had extinguished
what might have proven the worst
fire the town has ever known.
Only three of the ten reels were
burned, the building being slightly
| damaged.
No one connected with the popular
show house have an enemy that they
know of, and the cause for the ar
sonous act is mystery.
But there are theories.
There are suspicious.
And 1t may be that this firebug
will not escape as easily as did the
one who burned the old Franklin
block some years ago, in which the
postoffice was destroyed and one life
lost. 4

Parent Teachers Meeting.

The Parent-Teachers association
will meet at the schoci hous, Friday
afternoon at 4:30 o'clock. This will be
the last meeting of the association
during the present school term, or
until late in the fall, therefore it is
of urgent importance that every men,
ber be present at Fridays meeting.
The Parent-Teachers Organization
is one of the most important bodies
II the community because in a large
measure it governs the nome and the
school. We woul,i like tc know that
every mother in Kingstree was an
enthusiastic member. We hope they
will be eventually. 1t was through
their organization that the town has
lad a kindergarten in operation for
the past njne months and there are
perhaps other very worthy accomplish
ments which they have or would like
to bring to pass. Certainly too much
interest cannot be taken in the home
end the school.

SECRET PROCESS FOR
MAKING FERTILIZERS
Possible Factor in Development OF
Muscle Shoals by Henry
Ford.

Washington, May 1.-Manufacture
OF commercial fertilizers by secret
process and their delivery to con-
Sumers at one-half the existing mar
ket prices was held out to the senate
agriculture committee today by w.
Z. Mayo, chief engineer for Henry
Ford, as a possible factor in the de-
velopment of the governments prop
critics ct Muscle Shoals, Ale, under
the offer for their purchase and lease
by the Detroit manufacturer.
Chairman Norris, of the committee,
by direct questioning caused Mr.. Mayo
tc reveal MIR. Ford's plans tc use
the "secrct process" ir the making
of fertilizers ut Muscle Shoals. The
chairman and witness had been dis
cussing the ability of the bidder to
compete in the open market with COM
mercial producers of fertilizers when
Mr.. Mayo declared his belief that
Mr.. Ford would be able to manufac-
ture that commodity at one-half the
present cost price.
Mr.. Mayo said there was "secret
process" but declined to give the
committee additional information.
The witness advised the commit
tee that it vas Mir. Ford's intention
to devote every effort to fertilizer
production at Muscle Shoals and to
extend the power Of production be-
yond Muscle Shoals proper we'll into
the Upper Tennessee river. None Of
the power, Mr.. Mayo declared, would
be sold to private interest, but would
be consumed by the industrial enter
rrises to be established on the Ten
ncssee. About S50,OOO,OOO would be
expended in the creation of new in
dustries and power facilities in the
vicinity of Muscle Shoals, Mr.. Mayo
said.
Because OF the large investment
Mr. Ford would make, the witness
explained, he had declined to mod
ify the proposal for the purchase and
lease of the projects so as to reduce
the 100-year term to fifty years.
"Mr. Ford stands pat on that"
Mr.. Mayo said.

Community Market Opens.

Don't forget to come to the sample
loom ut the hotel for the community
market on Saturday, May 6. Let's try
to have everything arranged ready
for customers by ten o'clock.
In order that the market may be
success the producer must realize
that the patrons want first class
products, properly graded and put up
in the right kind of containers, at
reasonable prices. Consumers who
patronize the market are entitled to
tie very best. It will take this to
hold the trade.
y Much attention should be given to
grading, packing and displaying of
commodities offered for sale. The
appearance of what is offered for
sale means great deal. If you were
on the market for supplies wouldn't
you be attracted to the neatest dis
plays where the produce was of good
quality and put up nicely? Of course
you would. There nave been eggs
displayed for sale that did not sell
because there was dirt on them, the
same is true of vegetables.
Fix your produce in attractive mar
ketable packages, set reasonable
price and see it sell.
We want to have a big opening of
the market Saturday morning at 10
o'clock, come end see what we have.
We should have on sale blackberries,
strawberries, beans, peas, eggs, chick
ems, cabbage, potatoes, home cured
hams, turnips, beets, onions, lettuce,
and many other things that the pro-
Gucers my have on hand.

L. SMILEY BIGHAM
WOULD END 1T ALL
Continued from page y

Smiley, if he wrote the letters, begged
Edmund to return to the family home
near Pamplico. They were generally
concluded with expressions Of due
Erotherly love and affection.
Mr.. King made only one statement
this morning, bearing on the case and
his connection with it. That was that
Re had taken it with the expectation
of exhausting every reasonable possi-
bility Of Edmund's guilt. That. he
expects to do before concluding it.
He reiterated what everyone admits,
that Edmund vas convicted solely on
circumstantial evidence, which he
claims is contradictory throughout.
"If Edmund Bigham is executed"
said Mr.. King, "the state will have
taken what no man can restore-his
life. Should he afterwards be found
innocent, the case will be pointed to
in murder trials for years to come.
There is no telling how many mur-
ders might escape just such punish
ment because of it. How much injury
TO justice md society might thereby
result, no one can estimate"
Mr.. King has just returned from
Columbia, where he served upon the
supreme court of South Carolina a
lotice of intention to appeal from its
recent judgment affirming the con-
viction of the circuit court in Flor
cnce. This appeal is to TIE supreme
court OF the United States. 1t acts
as a supersedeas to the sentence OF
the court for execution. However, the
motion for new trial on the ground
of after discovered evidence, based
en- these letters, is expected to come
up before the appeal to the high
tribunal. In the interim, Bigham
could not be executed pending the re-
convening of court here and resent
encing Of him.

STOCK MARKET

(By The Associated PreSS)
 NEW YORK, Mar 17.-For the third consecutive sesion trading on the stock exchange today ran well beyond the million share mark. dealings again encompassing an unusual var iety of issues.
 The money market was tho primary factor in the further promotion Of bullish sentiment On the exchange call loans fell from 31a to 2 per cent. in the first hour. and in private, Of ferings such accommodations were o0- ta:nabie at 21a per cent.
 Among the more prominent issues today's active operations were num- erous low-priced shares of the railway industrial and unclasified groups. Their activity, seemingly based on speculative possibilities, was attribut- ed to professional interests.
 The trend for the most part was de- ciuedly upward, but profit taking ln- cidental to Friday session reduced some of the more substantial gains at the end. Representative stocks in the railway division again were inclin- ed to lag, but Union Pacific was bought in round amounts towards the close.
 Crucible steel was only temporarily affected by the omission of the com mon dividend, finishing at a. slight gain, but Underwater Oil broke sharp ly on the suspension of its dividend and several specialties were under pressure in anticipation of such ac- tiOn.
 outstanding features embraced b. s. Steel and the important steels, not ably Vanadiunl, as well as Chandler Motor, Anaconda Copper, Central Leather and Allied Chemical, the lat ter making a net gain of points. Sales 1,122,000 shares.
 Eoriegn exchanges especially, the British rate, continued the impress presive recovery from last weeks re- action. Remittances on London were heavily traded in, the inquiry, from all accounts, including covering of short contracts. Demand sterling rose to 437H, or about 31A cents from yes terday's low. <
 Allied rates were almost 20 points higher and Dutch ahd Scandinavian bills rose five to 1s points, out the German mark retai1ed all of it's re- cent weakness.

Bradstreets Report.

NEW YORK, Mar.17.-A further slight gain in spring jobbing trade, especially in west central states, but rather mere pronounced quiet ill tex ll.es in primary lines; more life in some basic industries, particularly in the building, iron and steel and coke trades, with increased firmness lI crude and manufactured metals; more stirring also in retail trade with mil linery especially well circumstanced; 1; a very distinct crop improvement in the winter wheat fields from Okloho- ma north to Iowa, and gains in em- ployment i'll iron and steel and auto mobile centers, are some of the things calling for note in this weeks devel- opments.
 Best reports still come from tho surplus grain growing regions, men,
 made of country buying both at wholesale and retail being bet ter where higher prices and large grain and cattle movements have Siv- en proof that there were two sides to the markets for farm products. Dry goods, shoes, clothing and millinery have sold better from jobbers east and west. Reports from most suothern points, but especially from Texas and Georgia, indicates that new buying lags, although underlying conditions are better in both states and New England mill points continue to report cotton mill stocks affecting sentiment.
