The daily newspapers no doubt do not receive any pay for the "news stories" of the State Fair, but you may be sure that the matter of display advertising is handled through the business office all right. The South will never be a really great and prosperous section of the country until we raise cattle and hogs and grain sufficient to supply the needs of the people of the South. There is no money in twelve or even j fifteen cents cotton if one has to buy grain and meat at correspondingly high prices. Right now the price ot cotton is hiph, but meat is much higher in proportion, so the farmer who does not raise enough for home consumption is no better off than when cotton was eight cents but meat and liay and grain and live stock were cheaper. This newspaper has heretofore expressed itself in regard to the matter of free advertising for the State Fair, and just as we felt like saying something about it again, a strong editorial on the subject in the Yorkville Enquirer came to our notice. We have not carried either the "news" notices 01 the display advertising for the Fair in a number of years, and we feel that every newspaper . should get pay for the advertising or keep it out of their colums. Of course there is much to be said in favor "f a creditable State Fair, but as we see it, there is no good reason why the weekly and semi-weekly newspapers should contribute hundreds of dollars in advertising to such an institution. FOUND DEAD IN ROOM AT HOTEL. Young Woman Meets Mysterious Death at Thomasvilie, Ga. Thomasvilie, Ga., Oct. 13.?Miss Dorothy Oaug, aged 21, formerly of Knoxville. Tenn., and employed as a stenographer in a Valdosta bank, was found dead in her bed in a local hotel this morning by her mother, who went to her daughter's room to awaken her to take the morning train back to Valdosta. The case is a mysterious one and opinion here is divided as to whether it is one of suicide or murder. The girl came to Thomasvilie to spend Sunday with her mother, who travels for a large publishing house. At 11 o'clock this morning Mrs. Gaug went to her daughter's room and found the young woman lying in a pool of blood on the bed. She wore a kimono and her hair was up, apparently having been recently fixed. At first it was thought she had died from a hemorrhage, but a bullet wound in the head and a pistol nearby with one empty shell and five load ed chambers told the story. Examination showed that the whole front of the skull had been shattered, apparently from a blow of a blunt instrument. The young woman had often j threatened to take her life, being j despondent over the fact that her; mother and herself could not live to- j gether. She is survived, besides her ! ' mother, by a younger sister, who: lives in Thomasville. and her father, a citizen of Knoxville. W. C. McElrath, proprietor of a "social club." was found guilty in j Spartanburg on Friday of storing and j selling liquor, and was fined $200. j His trial followed a raid on his re- j sort by the police. GOVEKXOH DISAPPROVES. Kays Prisoner Allowed to Go On Three Days' l>eer Hunt. Columbia, Oct. 12.?There having been criticism made of the freedom accorded John J. Jones, the Branchville attorney convicted of manslaughter for the killing of Abe Pearlstin, Gov. Blease to-day gave out the correspondence appearing below to show his attitude in the matter. Jones, who is serving a sentence J of 10 vears and one month, was | transferred last June from the Penitentiary to the County Poor Farm near Orangeburg, on account of ill health of the prisoner. It was reported to Gov. Blease that Jones has been given his freedom a number of times to leave the poor farm without guard, and also that he was permitted to go 011 a three days' deer hunt. The following correspondence between Capt. X. X. Hayden. chairman of the Orangeburg board of supervisors, and Gov. Blease, explains itself: Governor to Capt. Hayden. October 3. 1913. X. X. Ha -den, Esq, Supervisor, Oi angeburg, S. C. Dear Sir: It has been brought to my notice that a prisoner, John J. Jones, now serving ov supposed to be serving a sentence for manslaughter in your county, has this week been permitted to go off on a three days' deer hunt, and that he is continuously allowed all the privileges of a free man. Please report to me if this be true. Very respectfully, COLE L. BLEASE. Governor Capt. HaydenV Ileply. Orangeburg, Oct. 4, 1913. Cole L. Blease. Gov., S.

JL that he has the privilege of the county farm and some times comes to the> city, which is a short distance from the farm. But so far as the deer hunt and the 3 days taken, I know nothing of. In fact. Governor, I don't know anything about how he came here. .Mr. Bolen told me he went for him. and he had him here before I knew anything about itoron whatterms. He has never been put under my charge, and therefore I have not put any restriction whatever over him. and again we have no guard at the poor house, therefore he has all the liberty he wants. I do not think he will try to escape. His health is Dad and I think he is waiting your Excellency's pardon in the near future, which I do not hesitate to say I hope you will. Yours very truly, N. X. HAYDEX. Referred to Supt. of Pen.. October 9, 1913. Col. D. J. Griffith, Supt. State Penitentiary. Dear Sir: I herewith enclose you copy of letter by me, under date of October 3, to the Supervisor of Orangeburg county, and also copy of his reply, under date of October 4. Very respectfully C.OLE L.

Jones, was received , and referred to the Superintendent of the penitentiary. He has this day presented to me the original wage contract, bearing date the second day of June, 1913, signed by yourself. M. C. Edwins and T. J. Bolen, as supervisors of Orangeburg county. ( I would advise you immediately to read over that contract and carry out its provisions, if you do not want to be Dlaced in a position to receive a great deal of trouble. I am surprised at your saying you know nothing about it, and then finding the original contract here with your name on it. Copies of my letter and yours will be mailed to the Orangeburg paper, with the request that they be published, in order that it may be shown that I am not to blame for the way Jones is being treated. Very respectfully, COLE L. BLEASE, Governor. SCALDED TO DEATH IX BATH TUB Retired Business Man of Cleveland, ! Ohio, Meets Awful Death, Cleveland, Ohio. Oct. 12.?Henry w. .lucid, weaitny renrea ousmess i man and director in several local i I corporations, to-day was scalded to death in his bath tub. His body was found several hours later by his ! wife ou her return from church.

Wife Gave Signal to Indicate Tha Her Husband Was Al>out to Leave. The drawing aside of a curtail and the appearance of the face of his affinity at a window in her home wa: the death signal for the killing o Frank E. Xelson. in San Francisco according to the confession of James F. Cook, now under arrest and charg ed with the crime. The startlinj charge that the wife of his victin gave tlie signal for the murder of he: husband was made in a preliminary hearing in which she was tried foi complicity in the crime. Cook declares he was under ; strange spell against which he wa: powerless when he shot and killec Nelson, He declares Mrs. Xelsoi urged him daily to murder Xelsoi and that he killed him because h< loved the woman. In his testimony against Mrs. Xel son, Cook declared she gave him $2< with which to purchase a revolve: and do the shooting. On the nigh before the murder he declares he sa for hours and pondered over thi crime. He determined not to kill and then some strange fascinatioi seemed to draw him near the Xelsoi home. He was eager to see if Mrs Nelson would give the signal. "It was 4:40," says Cook, "abou the time Nelson usually left honn when I appeared on the street, walked down to the house to see i Mrs. Nelson would give the signal Soon the curtain was put back an( the face of Mrs. Nelson appearei through the window. "There was something fascinating about that window. I watched for i few minutes and then saw Xelsoi walk from the front door." After the death signal was giver Cook declares he felt Mrs. Xelsoi loved him more than any one else ii the world and determined to kill a: she desired. He followed Nelson fo: several squares.and then shot him ir the back. He placed the revolver by his side and ran away. Pont- states he met Mrs. Xelsoi daily before the tragedy, but she eon tided her domestic troubles with hin and often expressed the wish that hei husband was dead. COMES BACK TO SERVE TERM Man Who Escaped from Prison Vol untarily Returns to Pen. Raleigh, Oct. 14.?With an in fatuated widow and a Philadelphu lawyer working zealously for hi: pardon William Graham, alias Wil lis Reaves, has just resumed volun tarily the service of a five-year sen tnce in the North Carolina peni tentiary from Mecklenbery County where he had been sentenced foi larceny and escaped from the prisor three days after he began service 01 the sentence. Graham made his way to Philadelphia and has been living an exemplary life it is said. The thoughi of being an escaped convict sc wrought upon his conscience that hi determined to reveal his identity come back to North Carolina an.' trust to the tender mercies of tht North Carolina authorities to gram him a Dardon. He had fallen in love, too, with ? widow in Philadelphia, described as "handsome and wealthy," and sh* lias written Governor Craig a touching letter pleading for pardon foi her fiance and declaring her readiness to marry him as soon as he is pardoned and see to it that he continues to lead a pure life. Graham arrived here Saturday night and gave himself up to tlu prison authorities and is now wearing the stripes and doing convici work at the prison. The Philadelphia lawyer hen working for his pardon is Mr. Redheefer and he talks enthusiastically of the high character that Grahan established for himself in Philadelphia and the noble self-sacrifice thai he has made since his conversior in revealing his identity as an es ? - ? : a ? caped convict ana coming duck, ia serve the sentence for conscience's sake. Mr. Redheefer also hints at a de gree of unbalanced mentality a: having caused this turn in the con' duct of Graham in confessing iden tity when there was not the leasi indication that there would ever b( any discovery of his secret. Governor Craig has taken the case under consideration and in th< meantime Graham is doing time ir the penitentiary and his sweethear1 and the Philadelphia lawyer art bringing every possible influence t( bear to obtain the pardon.

A college woman, cul- jn 3 \ tured, traveled and gifted with tre- }nj . j mendous executive ability, she has r | chosen above all things to which she tw 1 | might be fitted, the life of a farmer. c0] r i She lives in her own home, inherited 7 j from her late parents, on the Boonep| ville pike, ten miles from Columbus, jg | Mo. She is a farmer solely because 0f i i she likes it. an si Thoughout Missouri, Miss Mitchell pl< i i is referred to lovingly as the "farm at i woman." because more effecually of 1 than any one else in the state, she Fc 2 works to improve the condition and surroundings of women in isolated Tb - country districts. She is president of ) | of the Missouri Farm Women's club, pr r j and in reality the creative force be- -a tj hind that organization. She is secre- ae t tary of the Missouri Homeseeker's of e conference, and a member of the ca; , State Rural commission, appointed by at l Governor Major. $S 1 These official positions are not sine* cures with Miss Mitchell. She as- Tb sumes both the responsibility and the a t honors that such positions entail, sr. 3 Her chief altruistic efforts are di- ar, * rected toward the carrying out of Ft f her own practical ideas with regard El * to the uplift of farm women. All co * her ideas are founded on practical v"? * experience gained by her lifelong res- d< idence among them. it: * Miss Mitchell believes that tbe un-j 1 rest of farm women is due in large | Be 1 measure to the lack of conveniences j iei in farm homes. She thinks that the 00 1 chief cause of dissatisfaction among 1 country young people is the lack of ou 1 recreation and diversion in rural in; 5 communities. Better homes, equipr ped with modern labor saving devices 1 and social centres, where the boys * and girls may indulge in wholesome amusements, will do much, in her j u 1 opinion, toward solving the problem j " of keeping people on the farms. j 1 Just at present Miss Mitchell is en_ r gaged in the working out of a sys- gu tern of community association for so- j ni] cial and educational purposes. She j in * is occupied also in instructing country j m: women in the uses of devices for the rei " lightening of manual labor. And al- tlc ways she studies methods for the im- n0 provement of farm neighborhood's. ch Miss Mitchell is not the owner of re i an immense landed estate. A model * 5 farm 365 acres in extent constitutes p1( - her domain. Forest Home, the old m - pioneer house in which she resides, ^ I _ i _ - is the homestead on a land grant | 211 - made to her people in the early days. 19 The original documents signed by r President Andrew .Jackson and John i Quincy Adams, which granted the j an f land to her forefathers, are in her | in< possession. The main wing of the j at - beautiful old dwelling, built in the j th( - white pillared colonial style, with j t broad verandas, is made of logs and I te< ) hand-hewn boards, and has stanchly W } weathered more than half a century. 0 , The sweeping lawns and the grove of c0 1 magnificent oak and forest elms, from > which the place derives its name, co t make of it one of the most beautiful 001 country places in the state. *n l "I sincerely believe that farming thl ; is the ideal profession for a woman," a^ i Miss Mitchell asserted, as she sat one afternoon on the front veranda cl1 r of her very charming home. "A well- V1( . managed farm affords to a woman a a 5 certain dear independence. The work. ing of it gives to her scientific train- an ing and contact with widely differr ing people. It furnishes her wits an a^ > outlet for the homemakint' instinct c0 . possible in scarcely any other profes- m< t sion." Pr "A woman's instinct for detail ac? crues to her advantage when she be. comes a farmer," she continued. "Ev- wa - ery farm woman should personally ln i manage her own farm, for she will t^1( . find that she can do it better than in< t, any one else. m( t "Both personally and directly I ag: . superintend my own farm. If a fence > is to built I survey the course, see ; that every post is in exact position, and that every strand of wire is prop. erly stretched. During haying?and 101 3 don't you love the haying?I must sir . know to.my own satisfaction that all reJ . the stacks are correctly builded, and ne I every wisp of grass rightly cured wc j for winter storage." "Perhaps pigs are my specialty," a J ?? _ * nw s she continued, prolonging tne cnat --a over a cup of tea,. "Pigs are so inter- n0 ! grateful for a bit of chopped corn. t Please don't call me a pork queen, va a | though. A reporter at the Missouri j Farm commission meeting played me a up as the 'pork queen,' picturing me w* with hundreds of tiny pigs scamper- vo ing in my wake." ei "At planting time in the spring, ah l and at seeding time in the autumn, I re: - am always at home." Miss Mitchell M1 i! asserted. "The interests of my farm e*I i are always nearest to my heart.
