. .s. it hmi been ao long aince I have
written to tke' Times, tcyiHff'tSTftfti'
i some "news" that I guess you thiol:
that I am now about as dry as the
weather. We have not had a quarter
of an inch of rain in over 30 days.
Late corn is badly affected by it, also
peas and sweet potatoes, and gardens
for fall service is about down and
out.
1 have been very busy, though, laying
to keep work abreast, mostly saving
roughage and gathering a .ine
crop of table peas (white peas) autrd
am glad to say that i have a quantity
v and all saved without any rain on
them. These things had me on the?
job, and made me play truant to my
business and pleasure to the paper;
' for my "boss" savs I must work
Since I "called" the last time, I have*
seen, and heard and enjoyed and
didnt, and went to places and stayed
at home some. There was a series of
meetings at the Baptist church here,
that was well attended, and several
joined in the various ways, and theu I
attended several times at the Carlisle
Baptist church during the meet*
ing there, derived much pleasure .ni
so doing. Four jdined that church.
Rev. W. A. Stephenson preached there
also. The "summary" of these meetings
was the baptizing at' the church
hefe Sunday of nine persons. A large
congregation was present to hear the
sermon and witness the baptism*!
services.
mi -
mere nave Deen a quantity of fine
hay saved all around in this lower Union
county during this dry dealt
weather, and there is more .to save
yet. It had been ideal for hay mak*
ing at ieast.
The more one looks ^t the cotton
crop around here, the poorer it a p.
1 pears. Many bolls that farmers
thought, and hoped, would go . to maturity,
at the beginning of August,
failed. They were damaged* or entirely
killed by the boll weevil.
It is said by many farmers that
weevils are already bad in-peas, especially
those that same on early.
Also that a certain kind of weevil is
infesting early corn in the field. It
is a small long bug of a thing, with
a long bill, and is co/nmon in cribs
in late years;' bnt I believe this is
the first year that I ever heard of it
taking a job in the field.
The graded school opened here on
schedule time, September 11th. Mrs
Mary (W. D.) Sartor is pljincipal
(By the way, she taught tfaii school
a few years ago, and is recognized as
a very fine teacher.) Miss Vera Trotter,
of aiieeeeds
from the last session, as assistant. 1
Several of the higher grade scholars
will go to the higher schools at Union*
I am informed.
Miss Elisabeth Jeter is teaching tho

Mildred Jeter is teaching at Buffalo.
Mr. Manning Jeter, as I guess you all
know, is teaching at Union.

Well, as is light and proper, after
the excitement of the political campaign,
the pendulum is beeinnincr to
tret steady. But when it comes to a
showdown for an efficient and economic
use of the people's money (th?'.axes
they pay) for roads and things,
if one thinks the people are deprived
:>f "claws" or are "dehorned," he is
deceiving himself, if I hear aright
They are only - getting in trim to

I have head all of the after "using"
cards of thanks from the late candidates,
both victors and vanquished,
and they seem appreciative generally,
and also they mostly refused to
fcro-w" over the defeated. I suppose
everyone, if two of more were in the
ame race, had sense enough to know
they would have votes against them,
but they were lenient towards them
and they all parted friends. I regret
very much that Mr. Duncan was the
only one who felt it in his heart, or
construction, to apeak- of "enemies."

New York Giant*
Are Forty Years Oltjl
New York, Sept. 26.?'Giants in action
as well as in stature," mused old
Jim Mutrie, one day more than a
quarter of a century ago aa he sat
observing the New York team, then
an aggregation of six-footers, stride
to victory as easily as a fairy book
pap wearing sevan-ta^e boots
would win a Marathon race.
Ever since tfcqy have bean the
"Giants"?professionally anct ^nancially.
Jim was the "Daddy pf the.
Giants" and had to right to.attach
the moniker to his. figurative.progeny
but when he uttfred his now famous
phrase he did it out of simple admiration.
A reporter sitting near him
usurped the ministerial function and
did the baptising.
The Giants are now 40 years old.
Mutrie brought.the club Jjito existence
in 1883 by inducing John B. Day,
a rabid fan of < the sidebars days* to
finance his idea, fim took the management
and- played- the drat seasons
on the old Polo Grounds, then on
Fifth Avenue, gaining admittance to
the National League in- its initial
year by replacing the Troy team.

disposing of the franchise ini^6, after
the club had finished fifth in 1894.
Andrew Freedsnnn was the mutt

John T. Bursh, builder of the present
imposing edifice, sometimes called the
Brush Stadium, was the owner then.
The following year McGraw's team
won the pennant but refused to plav
the Boston Americans for the World's
Championship. Tl^e refusal led to
the formation of the former National
Commission in the following year
ind it at once made mandatory a series
of contests for the supremacy of
the world. The Giants won the pennant
again the next year and defeated
the Philadelphia Athletics four
games to one, for the title.
Harry Hempstead, in 1911, succeeded
his father-in-law, John T.
Brush as head of the club, and six
years later gave McGraw a contract
which included-stock in the operating

Summer in Denmark
Copenhagen, Sept. 26.?Large
numbers of Austrian children, particularly
little boys and girls from
Vienna, have been spending their
summers in Denmark as guests of
every class of the Danish community.
But it has been distinctly understood
between the Danish organizations
arranging these charity visits
and the Danish authorities, that no
child shotfld be allpwed to stay in
Denmark more than six months unless
special permission for a prolonged
stay wpw? given. Manv
of these Austrian children
have grown very fond of their Danish
foster-parents, and vice versa,
and the leave takings at the railway
stations, when these children are
sent back to Austria have in many
instances bean poignant and pitiful
The youngsters did not hide their sorrow
and dfepfir at going away.
Little Mitsi Wolf-Schikinger is
nine, and the daughter of an Austrian
.colonel .Who was killed on the
Italian frontier during the war. Her
mother was left to shift for Mitri
and herself on a pension that hardly
cohered the cost of rpnt, and she was
happy when she got an opportunity
of sanding Mitsi on a long holiday to
kind and hospitable people in Denmark.
Mitsi and her foatay-parents
became very fond of each other. The

St. Thomas Apprel^fuive
Over Reafrlctions
On Shippinj
Charlotte Amalia, St. Thomas, \
I., Sept. 26.?St. Thoipas merchants
whose prosperity depends chiefly o
the amount of shipping that come
into the harbor, are hopeful tha
President Harding takes prompt an
favorable action on the memorandur
recently handed him by a commis
sion from St Thomas urging that th
Volstead Act be not enforced in th
Virgin Islands; that the coastwis
shipping law be suspended, and tha
the quarantine -regulations be abat
ed.
Ship figures compiled from th
custom t^ouse records show that fo
the year ending Jun$..&0, 1922, 2,
156 vessels of all tyif?| entered thi
port, as compared with 2,622 for th
.previous year. For the 12 month
ended June 30, 1920, 2,245 ships cam
into port.
It is pointed out here that the yea
ended June 30, 1921, was abnorma
and that there has, in, fact, been onl
a slight decline on the actual numbe
of cessels entering port over the lis
cal year 1920. But it appears tha
the port is not suifariug so muc
from the decline in the number o
vessels coming herer^?s from thi
fact that fewer of thai* vessels tak
on coal or other supplies.
The United States .Shipping Bohr
built three large oil tanks here wit
a capacity of 165,00(V^arrels to sup
ply fuel oil to Shipping Board vet
Sels. They were filled last January
and since then the total withdrawal
have been only aboulfc 40,000 barreli
So far this year, It is said, ship
coming into port to tlffce on coal hav
averaged less than one a week, an
the coaling of vesa|}s is the chk
source of income foifi many men an
women who earn frttifcp three to fH
cents for each basket of coal carrie
aboard. For the -fiij|?~ three month
this year the importations of coi
were 2166 tons naficompared wit
importations of appMndmhtely 6,00
tons for a like peri?f last year.

in an effort to apprehend a gunman <
who, while three companions waited
outside, today walked into the First
National bank of Hopcdale, 15 miles
west of here, and shot and probably
fatally wounded the cashier, George
C. Whitaker, 29.
The only clue the authorities ha\e
it- a half a thumb, which police say
belongs to one of the bandits who ;s
thought to have caught his hand in
the door of the automobile and amputated
his thumb as they made their
getaway. The piece of the thumb
was found fast in the door of the
automobile which the gunmen abandoned
near Parlette, Jefferson county,j
after their escape from Hopcdale.
Jefferson county authorities scout
the theory and believe that the gunmen
had been hired to kill Whitaker.
The fact that the bandit made no .
demand for money and deliberately!
shot Whitaker when he appeared it
the cashier's window leads officers io
this theory, they stated. Bank officials
are confident, however, that robbery
was the motive of the shooting.
The condition of Whitaker Is reported
by physiciAns here, where he
was brought after the shooting, as
serious.

George of Jugoslavia
Declines $4,000 Allowance
Belgrade, Sept. 1.?Prince (h orge,
elder son of the late* King Peter >f
the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, who
in 1909 renounced his right to the
Serbian throne, has declined an annual
allowance from the government
of 300,000 dinars, about $4,000 at
xne present, rate 01 < xchange, as n<>in
consonance with his princely dignity.
At a Vrown Council presided o\
by Kin^ Alexander, the prince ->

George should be deprived of all n>\. '
privileges, and held responsible foi
verbal and written attacks against;
either the royal house of Jugoslavia,

time to keep up his one great interest
outside the establishment of th?>
(rish nation.
This was the breeding of his beloved
"Kerry Blues," a type of dog
that has become very popular in the
past year or two. Even when on the
run and later during his bitter fight
with de Valera, Collins is said to
have found time occasionally to attend
to his hobby.
Sweden's Revenue From
Liquor is $32,000,000
% Stockholm, Sept. 26.?Sweden's in
come from liquor trade taxes during
1922 will be over 121,000,000 kronor,
or more than $32,000,000, according
to the official reports just published
by the Liqnor Control Board.
One of the arguments used by Sweden's
"wets" in the recent prohibition
referendum in Sweden, which resulted
in a victory for the anti-prohibition
iftta, was that in case Sweden went
dry there would be a heavy loss of
revenue from liquor taxes, and that
ether commodities might have to he
eur-taxed to make up the deficit.
