Peatofmno qa Becond Olassii Mi Mattr THUR8DAY, APRIL 18, 1911 The corn crop of the nine1 Southern states last year ex ceeded that of the yrevious year by more than 158,000,000 bush Ih, els, aind these nine states pro duced 45 per cent. of the entire corn increase over the year 1909 in the whole United States. While Andrew Carnegie is giving $10,000,000 toward the 3 work of establishing .interna tional peace, it is a fact that the year 1911 will see more gi- y gantic warships launched than i any previous year in history. The combined powers before the year is closed will set afloat 36 i battleships of the dreadn aught size. The number now on the water is 88, and it has takeni five years to roduce them. t About fifteen million dollars were spent in this country last 1 year in the organized fight I against luberculosis, a sum twice the total of the previous t year. This was in the main- a tenance of institutions and in I the educational crusade, and many millions more were spent ] in private attempts it cure and in the home care of patients. t Intelligent and organizedt work I on such a scale mst soon make a great diecrease in the toll of lives no0w needlessly sacrificed to this dread disease. Senator Sullivan is Sore. Senator Sullivan, of Williams ton, uncle of Mr. C. C, Feather stone, the gentleman that Cole I' Blease defeated for governor, comes out in a long communica tion and advises magistrales not reappointed by Gov. Blease to hold on to their jobs. Now, suppose Mr. Featherstone had been elected,,.and saw fit to do as did Gov. -Blease. asks' the Anderson Intelligencer, would Senator Sullivan have acted as he is now doing? What Jeffries' Went Up Against. A recent dispatch from San Francisco is likely to discourage such wh e pgilists as oney be industriously training with the hope of facing Jack Johnson in the prize ring and snatching the chanmgionshio from his grasp. The dispatch, after stating that the negro pugilist-had visited a hospital where his brother is un der treatment for threatened blindness, proceeds: "While experts were taking X-ray pictures of Charlie they suggestedl that the champion sit down and have an X-ray made of his head to find the thickness of his skull. ''Johnson accepted and the re sult showed that it required fih e and a half minutes for the rays to penetrate, thus proving that the champion has a skull rang ing from one-half to three-quar ters of an inch, which is more massive than, the skull of a Tex as steer. "While It took five and a half minutes for the rays to penetrate Johnson's skull they go through an ordinary human head from five to fifteen seconds. "The result of the X-ray ex posure amazed all medical ex perts at the German Hospital. All declared that Johnson's skull surpassed in thickness any I which they had seen and proved that he could not be knocked out i by a blow on the head." t No white man can hope to e stand with bare fists before either a the hind hoofs of a mule or a .j riegro whose skull is thicker b~ than that'of a- Texas steer, and 11 so.Johison is likely to hold the il championship until sd'de-acrllla ti r tour-footed 'animal is allowed face* him in th'e ring.-Macon 3a.)

It affords me much pleasure ;o write a few lines to the read rs of the Pickens Sentinel fournal in regard to my first risit to the West. I left Pickens, Jan. 4, for Atlanta, where I joined three of xny friends, Messrs. Lloyd and Roy Grandy and Mr. Lucius L. Earle, and went from there to% Oklahoma City, Okla. We enjoyed the trip fine. Arrived in Oklahoma City,: Jan. 11th, where we met with several of our Pickens friends. Oklahoma City is a pleasant place, but the wind and changeable climate miakes it very unpleasant. After five weeks' stay in Okla boma, Air. Earle and myseif left for Los Arigeles, Cal.;- Mr. Lloyd Grandy returned after vard ,to Pickens on a' business Irip. On our way to California we stopped off at Williams, Ariz. , an~d went up to the Grand Can yon, where wve spent some few days. * The Canyon, with its snow-capped peaks, is a beauti ful sight. It la the most inter esting spots we have visited,. on our trip. We had the pleasure of witnessing an Indian dance while at the Canyon, and it was certainly amusing. We then left for Los Angeles, Calif., where we have been since. The climate is very mild; warm days and cool nights. Los Angeles, with its towering palms and beautiful flowers, make it an ideal resort. Like D)klahoma City, it is well sup plied with hobble skirts.. The Los Angeles ladies are complain ing about the steps on the street ears not being low enough since bhe "hobbles" have come in style. I think economy, not 30mfort, brouight, on' the fad.
