Spartanburg, April 15: Novel stunts for the Shriners' "fresh meat" furnished amusement all day long for Spartanburg people and visitors here today. The Shriners of Omar temple and temples of other states had full possession of the city today and their programme, beginning at 9 o'clock, and ending at midnight, utilized every minute for a royal good time. Nearly 50 novices were here this morning to enter the Shriners' ranks at the spring ceremonial session tonierht. and thev were among the most conspicuous visitors in Spartanburg today. At street corners in the guise of bootblacks, clad in rural police costume, driving plows and other farm implements, riding mules and pushing baby carriages, they were to be seen at every turn of the streets. One would-be Shriner spent a short while behind the bars of the city jail after he had been "arrested" for alleged disorderly conduct in a drug store. All the novices were labeled with large tags indicating their station. The street entertainments given by the Omar patrol and Adluh drum corps during the morning were attended by large crowds, and thousands of people lined Main street to witness the grand parade at 5 o'clock this afternoon. The parade was headed by the drum corps and a patrol and after the 1 Shriners came the "fresh meat," some 1 imprisoned in a large "steel" cage and all of them garbed in highly interesting fashion. Visiting ladies were entertained at a reception by the local chapter of the Eastern Star, and 1 two Dutch lunches were among other highly enjoyed social events. Imme; diately after the Dutch lunch tonight, the Shriners got aboard their special train which left five minutes after midnight, for various points in lower South Carolina. Moving pictures of the various Shriner events were taken by a local theatre man and will be shown next week. ? Columbia State, April 16: Buyers from Jersey City and Baltimore this week, purchased 337 head of South Carolina fed and bred cattle for approximately $15,000. Yesterday 100 head were bought at Greenwood and hpari at Newberrv. Wednesday 172 head were bought at Rock Hill. The average price paid at Rock Hill was 4 1-2 to 6 3-4 cents per pound. The average price at Greenwood was 4 1-2 to 6 cents per pound. "The sales were conducted just like those at the stock yards in Baltimore and Chicago," said W. W. Long, head of the United States demonstration forces and director of the Clemson college extension work. Mr. Long arrived in Columbia last night, accompanied by C. Driver of Baltimore, Charles McDonald of Jersey City, and C. C. Middleton of Baltimore, buyers representing large cattle dealers. The United States department of agriculture sent F. A. Wray of the bureau of animal industry, and L. D. Hall of the bureau of markets, to make reports on the sales. The cattle have been fed during the winter under the direction of the demonstration agents and Clemson college. C. E. Gatewood, personal representative of Fairfax Harrison, president of the Southern railway, is accompanying the party through the state. Today the buyers will visit the farm of L. I. Guion in Kershaw county, and will go also to Winnsboro. Mr. Long said that eight cars of cattle would be purchased today. Four central cattle markets are to be established in this state, Mr. Long said last night, the location to be announced later. "When these markets have been established," he said, "the farmers will be able to concentrate their cattle for selling and shipment." He said that the railways had agreed to take the cattle for shipment on a through bill of lading, which would allow a stopover for the sale. "The buyers were greatly pleased with the South Carolina cattle. They agreed, if the four local markets are established, to bring other buyers to the state next year," said Mr. Long. Governor Manning attended the sales yesterday at Greenwood, and was highly pleased with the results. \ WILL STICK AT IT Governor Manning Says Nothing Temoorarv About Law Enforcement. Governor Manning, in an interview Wednesday, declared emphatically that the law enforcement campaign In South Carolina is not "a temporary reform wave." The governor discussed the situation in Charleston. He made it plain that Charleston is hot to be singled out for enforcement of the law, but his plans call for law enforcement in every section of the state. "What has already been started will be completed by continued, sustained and unrelenting effort," said the chief executive. Gov. Manning is receiving many reports from sheriffs and magistrates in every county in the state. He believes that he has the co-operation of these local officials. The governor believes that he is getting results. Governor Manning issued the following statement: "The information I have from Charleston is so far gratifying. The work is not done, but it has been begun and I think the beginning good. The social clubs in that city have voluntarily altered their customs to accord with the law and I highly appreciate their actions. In the city the municipal authorities have made a vigorous start, and the same has been done outside of the city by the county authorities. The result has been so far that many saloons have gone out of business; others have taken to cover; that is, so to speak by having attractive and easily found places where they are now doing a 'blind' business with those who seek them. "This, too, of course, must be stopped and will be stopped. These violators must understand, and will understand, that this is not a temporary reform wave, but a carefuly considered undertaking to enforce the laws. What has already been started will be completed by continued, sustained and unrelenting effort. "I want to publicly thank the people of Charleston for the aid they are giving me?the aid that comes through an aroused public opinion. The desire by many thousands that the law shall be enforced makes the enforcement vastly easier. The work now going on in Charleston is carrying out the plans made fo rthe entire state. I am not discriminating, but am treating all parts of our commonwealth alike. I feel sure this course is recognized as desirable for our ultimate good." REDUCED ACREAGE COTTON Greatest Curtailment is in South Carolina. The following is the indicated reduction of acreage of cotton in the different states, and the reduction per cent: Acreage Per ct. North Carolina 1,287,000 19 South Carolina 2,260,000 20 Georgia 4,480 000 17 Alabama 3,207,000 lh Mississippi 2,675,000 15 Louisiana 1,139,000 18 Texas 10,364,000 14 Arkansas 2,148,000 15 Tennessee 744,000 14 Oklahoma 2,340,000 18 Others 302,000 17 Total 30.966,000 16.8 Preliminary reports to the New York Commercial from upwards of 1,000 correspondents covering every nook and corner of the cotton belt indicate that acreage planted to the staple this year will be 16.8 per cent smaller on the average than it was last year and that the total area devoted to cotton will be approximately 30,966,000 acres. Indicated percentages of curtailment are largest in the eastern states, which last year produced 40 per cent . of the 16.500,000 bale crop, and are i relatively smaller in the states which produced the other 60 per cent of the crop. States consuming fertilizers apparently will use 40 per cent less this year than last. Appointment Withdrawn.?Governor Manning has withdrawn the appointment of Geo. F. Sargeant, M. D., of Maryland, as superintendent of the state hospital for the insane, and in connection with this action has given cjut the following statement: "Several days ago I announced the appointment of George F. Sargeant, M. D. of Matyland, as superintendent of the state hospital for the insane. This action was taken after a careful consideration and thorough search in this and other states. 1 was determined to get the best equipped man for the position, one whose experience, training and study fitted him for this i special work. "Since the appointment was announced. the constitutional objection has been raised that probably only a qualified elector of this state was eligible, and 1 am frank to say that the objection seems potent. In asking Dr. Siargeani id unuenaKe ine supenntendency, I had in mind only the welfare of the patients of the institution, i overlooked this constitutional question: hut 1 stand for the constitution and the iaws of our state, both of which are my guide in the conduct of the office I hold. I wish to say to the people of the state that I have revoked th" appointment of Dr. Sargeant i as superintendent because I respect the constitution and will not even appear to evade it." ? Consular reports to the state department at Washington yesterday, said General Villa appeared to have grained an advantage over General Obregon's forces in the first day's fighting near Celaya, where it is estimated 45,000 troops are engaged. One report said Obregon and two of his commanders were surrounded and their retreat cut off from all directions. The final outcome of the battle is still in doubt. Victory for Villa would mean resumption of communication between the City of Mexico and the American border, while success for Obregon would divide the Villa-Zapata forces and destroy their communication between the northern and southern sections of the country. In many quarters in Washington it is believed the outcome will indicate which of the two major factions is to dominate. ? A dozen bandits held up a New York Central fast freight train at Sanborn. N. Y., nine miles east of North Tonawanda, early yesterday, stripped several cars of bolted silk vuliu.H uf fRfi fifHi nnrl Qnpd nwflv in automobile trucks upon which they had loaded their plunder. The bandits were armed with repeating rifles and automatic pistols and fired several shots at the crew. No one was injured. A posse of detectives, mounted police and patrolmen from Buffalo, Niagra Falls and Tonawanda reached the scene shortly after the holdup, but several hours of searching resulted in no arrests. After forcing the engineer to uncouple the locomotive and run it a short distance, the engineman and three other members of the train crew were lined up against a box car and placed under guard of a single bandit while others looted the merchandise car. Four five-ton trucks were in waiting and quickly were loaded with the booty. Engineer Goss escaped the guard, and running a fusillade of shots, reached his engine, made a record run into Suspension Bridge, eight miles away, and gave the alarm. The robbery was the most daring of its kind ever attempted in this section and the amount of plunder far exceeds in value the proceeds of any other freight train robbery in the history of eastern railroading. Diver Reaches the F-4.?Chief Gunner's Mate Grilley went 268 feet under water at Honolulu, Wednesday, and walked along on the top of the submarine F-4, which disappeared March 25. The depth is said by naval officers to be a world's diving record. Grilley found the F-4 lying on a smooth, sandy bottom with no coral growths to impede hoisting operations She lay on her starboard side, her bow pointing shoreward. Two parted lines were found attached to the craft. After Gilley reported, it was said further observations proba bly would be made before an attempt is made to raise the F-4. The diver went down in an ordinary diving suit and the recompression chamber designed to reduce pressure on him was not used. Grllley was under water two hours. He descended in five minutes and was on the bottom 12 minutes. An hour and forty minutes was required to accustom him gradually to the change in air pressure.?Honolulu Dispatch. Mecklenburg Farmers In No Hurry. ?The farmers in this section of North Carolina have not yet had a chance to get a start at cotton planting, on account of the wet winter and spring. As the Observer said a few years ago, the crop was ordinarily In the ground by April 15. but the changed climate of recent years, has made both corn and cotton planting later propositions, some being planted up to May 15. The farmers, however, are not much put out by the late start in cotton, as they are standing by their determination to plant less and are not in the usual fever of a hurry to get what they are going to plant in the ground.?Charlotte Observer.

C., under dat< of February 11th, 1915, wrote the Local Treasurer of the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Co., at Washington, a.' follows: "I am very glad of the opportunitj to give some expression of my opinior of the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Co. I have been solicited by agents ol most all of the 'Old Line* companies I have listened to the arguments presented and have studied the policj contracts of various companies. Tht more 1 study this subject and the mori 1 hear of life insurance, the more 1 am convinced that the Mutual Benefit gives a larger value for every dollai paid in premium than does any othei company. "Besides the large annual dividendi this company pays, it has been mosl liberal in extending back to old policj holders all of the privileges of the new contracts, in so far as this is possible. This is truly a mutual act, and I know that all future privileges wili be extended to me whenever they are enacted. I can heartily recommend the Mutual Benefit to all persons contemplating life insurance." JAMES A. CAHILL, Vice President of the Commercial National Bank of Washington, D. C., under date of February 17, 1915, wrote as follows: "It gives me pleasure tc add my testimonial to the worth ol the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company. During my business career I have never met a policy holder ol vour company who has anything but the highest praise for it. From m> own experience (lasting since 1889) it stands out in bold relief against ALL OTHERS. Its contracts are free ol technicalities and most liberal as tc values. It gives value received foi every dollar deposited with it and ] most heartily commend it to any desiring insurance." I shall be pleased to show you that the foregoing can be fully substantiated.
