Mystery Disappearance
OF HarseIl Is Revived;
Z Jailed; ; Sought

BAKERSVILLE, n. c., Feb. "a
Two men are under arrest and war
rants have been issued for three
others in connection with the latest
investigation into the disappearance
two years ago of B. L. I1arsell. New
York writer and naturalist, it was
learned here today.
Grady Buchanan is in jail here
and Fons Buchanan is being held
at Jonesboro, Tenn, pending efforts
to eXtradite him, while it was learn
ed that warrants have been issued
for Green Buchanan, Joseph Buch-
anan and William Rainwater. All
of the men were wanted, according
to officers, on charges bearing on
the Harsell mystery. Harsell was
hiking through the mountains when
last heard from.
The same men were arrested in
December, 1921, at the instance of
a private detective and charged
with having robbed and murdered
Harsell. whose body, according to
the theory of officers, was burned
to hide the crime. After a prelimi-
nary hearing, however. Magistrate
Craig Miles released the men on the
ground that no evidence had been
presented to warrant their being
held. The reasons for the re-arrest
OF the men were not given in detail.
Harsell, who was getting ready
for a South American trip. was
walking from Bedford, n. Y, to

GIL BERSON BEGINS
AND ENDS CAREER
As GREAT FIGHTER
wAsHINGToN.-An the world

WAsHINGTON.-All the world
loves a game fighter.
That's why Washington regrets
to see Senator Charles Allen Gull
berson, of TeXas-now known, not
unkindly, as the sick man of the
senate"-go back home.
Only three senators remain in the
senate who have served longer
than the Democratic Nestor of that
body. After "a years, the longest
service ever given Texas in the
senate, his friends charge the iKu
Klux Khan with his defeat But
his game fight, despite i'll health,
made defeat almost as glorious as
victory.
Dramatic as was the beginning
of his long public career, when as
governor of Texas, he stopped a
prize fight at Dallas in 1895, its
close was even more sensational.
1t proved "once a fighter, always
u fighter" Il
When Culberson beat the fight
promoters, he was barely past 20.
When he fought the khan, he was
an old man-only 81, but old be
yond his years. For ten years he
has suffered from palsy, which sap
ped his vitality.
The fight promoters had sold
$4,000 worth of tickets and hun
dreds of thousands had bet on Bob
F'itzsimmons and Peter Maher. The
governor thought Maher was too
old and no match for Kangaroo
Bob, then in his prime. He said
it was "commercialized brutality"
The Lone Star state was wild and
woolly in 1895 and a hostile press
hurled "mollycoddle" at him when
he called q special session of the
legislature to stop the fight He
sent Capt. Bill Mcdonald, of the
Texas Rangers, the man who would
charge Hell with a bucket of
water TO see that his orders were
carried out.
I 1t CALLED the young southerner's
pride when a reform preacher dub
bed him "our heroic young Chris
tan governor and Brann, the Icon
oclast, turned the phrase into
ieer. But he showed he was not too
proud to fight when a couple of law
yers, representing the disappointed
fight promoters, insulted him during
a public speech. He handed his hat
TO a friend and kicked the hecklers
out of the hall.
The courageous spirit that stop
ped the prize fight, fiared up at
what he regarded as the menace of
the khan. He did not hesitate, but
boldly denounced the khan and de-
manded it's destruction as "a sinister
force aimed at Anglo-Saxon civiliza-
ton
Broken health embitters some
men, but CuIberson, one of the last
representatives of the old south,
continues an unaffected, courteous,
courtly cavalier. His battle against
failing strength is fought in silence.
No one has heard him complain
about his defeat, or regret that he
fought the khan.

CHICAGO, Feb. 2G.-Wheat exhibited a
weak tone today. There was further liqui-
dation in evidence and, although support
was encountered in May from SILT down,
the market showed poor ralying power.
There was nothing in the news that could
be construed as bearish. but the longs
realize that the time is growing short in
which to dispose Of our surplus. In six
weeks lake navigation will he open and the
pressure of the wheat still on the Canadian
pfairies and terminals will make it diff
cult to handle.
Wheat rallied in the late trading as a
result of covering by pit shorts. Last
prices however. were sc to &c lower.
May, S1.17I4 61.17as; July, $1.133s @L.13l2 !;
September, $1.113s @11l12.
Liquidation in corn was even more draS-
tic and support not so good Some local
bulls attempted to support the market, but
the pressure was too great Shipping de-
mand was slow. Visible supply increased
1894 900 bushels. Supplies on ocean pas
sage decreased 2,S47, GOO bushels.
Corn also had partial recovery as re-

PASSING OF WILLIAMS ROBS
SENATE OF UNIQUE FIGURE

but independent as the proverbial
hog on ice.
John Sharp was near the end of
the line when good looks were pass
ed out. Understood and almost in
significant, he looks as if he dress
ed in the dark. for the role of "the
common people" But when he goes
into action, welding the keenest
blade in debate that congress has
witnessed in a generation, he be-
comes the "Yazoo Giant"
Master of Prose
AS he pours out prose poetry that
charms the ear, or rasp incISlVe
logic to compel the intellect, you
realize why he was real preslden-
tial possibility in 1904 and 1908, de-
spite his far southern residence. He
gave up the Democratic leadership
in the house and went to the SEN
ate just in time to miss the speak
ership that went to Champ Clark.
But he may solaoe himself with
escaping the disappointment Of de-
feat for the presidential nomination
in 1912, which also went to Champ
Clark.
John Sharp spent the first half
of his life going to school-he grad
uated, not merely went through
five great universities-and the last
half in the public life. Now he is
nearing three-score and ten. He has
had enough of honors and TOO much
of hokum and he feels entitled to
a rest.
What book he could write if he
would listen to the Establishments
of publishers! But down on his
plantation on the "star route" near
Yazoo City. where he will retire,
beyond trying to re-establish my
reputation as a gentleman" he says
his literary efforts will be confined
to keeping books" for his son John

be free to emulate the darby who
sometimes sets and thinks and
sometimes jest sets
John Sharp is a convincing speak

cadance, mississippi is a sweet old

State Inspector Arrested
Governor Hardwick in his reply in
formed Secretary Wallace that he
has offered the largest rewards al
lowed by law for the capture of the
Carriers, and has directed the attor-
ney general to attend in person, to
the prosecution of the case.
You may rest assured he said,
that the state of Georgia, will exert
every effort to Yindicate it's laws
against men who stand in open re-
bellion and defy them, and that every
resource of the state will be employ
ed in the prosecution of this case"
Another cattle tick case considered
Saturday by Governor Hardwick was
that of J. H. JeffareS. a state inspec-
tor in Grady county, which is free
of ticks, whose duty is to patrol the
Florida line to prevent tick-infested
cattle from that state coming into
Grady county to re-infect Grady
county cattle.
According to letter from Jeffares
to Dr. Bahnsen, he recently took up
several head of cattle from Leon
county, Florida, which came into
Grady county with fever ticks, and
the owner of the cattle had him in
dicted in Leon county on a charge of
cattle stealing, and obtained a requi-
sition for him before he knew any
thing about it, and he was taken to
Tallahassee and required to give
bond for appearance and trial.
Governor HardWick decided that
since he issued the eXtradition on q
proper showing from the Florida au-
thorities, without objection on the
part of Jeffares, he could not revoke
it, and it was beyond his power to
stop Jeffares from going to trial next
week in Tallahassee.
