Hot Springs, Va., Nov. 3.-- ci.esident Taft has brought his scond tour of the country to a jpm’oorary halt. He expects to here until Monday enjoy rest and will play golf and take ever- vthing easy. According to offic- figures, the ‘‘swing round the circle’’ was the longest evertak- by a President.

More than 4,800 letters and telegrams were received on the trip and the mails and tele graph were kept busy daily. HEM AT WAniESVILlE Rare Presence of Mind and Brave ry Shown at Fire. ^ Asheville, Oct. 30. —Display- mg unusual presence of mind for a child, Edgar Applegate, the four-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. James E. Applegate, saved him self from death by suffocation by hiding in his mother’s trunk when a fire, which he started by playing with matches, gutted his home at Wayenesville early this evening. His mother, who was asleep in an upstairs loom when the house took fire, was rescued by neighbors, who car ried her into the open air. No one seemed to know that there was anyone else in the house un til the mother, regaining con sciousness, screamed that her boy was in the burning building and made an effort to rush back into the flar?ies. She was h«ild back, however, and several men attenipted to enter the house but were driven, out by the :sn^bke and flames.. _ ).y-: - II was then that Theodore Slc- Cr^cken, a business man of Way nesville, displayed heroism for which) the citizens of Waylifs- vilie say, he’ s^^ould be ,^vjen a sa ::fe ■. livWIuJSjiV -'.

The Italians are demoralized and do not dare to venture outside the zone of fortifications. ” Ten Commandmests For Women. A Chicago preacher has form ulated two new sets of command ments. One, for husbands, he discussed two Sundays ago. The other, for wives,' was the topic of last Sunday's sermon. They follow: i Thou shalt have no man ex cept thy husband.' Thou shalt place no club, so cial circle, organization or mis sionary society before thy home. Thou shalt not, waste thy hus band’s substance on gay raiment. Tbiou shalt not let the petty vexations of the household dis rupt the family. Thou shalt not regale thy fam ily with idle gossip. Thou shalt not fret thyself be cause thy neighbor’s house is greater than thine. Thou shalt not serve punch to thy guests nor put up prizes at thy whist parties. Thou shalt not pronounce thy- se\i delighted to see an unwel come caller. Thou shalt not wear showy dresses over shodhy underwear. Thou shalt not allovv thy Bible to gather dust. Pretty good advice, all of it, but we cannot conceive of human authority sufficient to compel obe dience. If divine law, the prin ciples of which already forbid the violation of these precepts, is not sufficient, surely no mere busband or preacher either, for that matter, can succeed in their enforcement. You may advise, brother, but your experience has probably ^ready taught you thaf pur advice will riot always be needed. and yddveny,^^j fifth v^^ien throii^ai^iidOW^ of a ^ apparently came from a steel trunk back of the kitchen door.. McCracken seized the trunk ajad rushed through the doorway, which was filled with flames, to the yard. The lid of the truink was lifted and beyond being bad ly frightened, the boy was found unharmed inside. Malta, Nov. 2.—It is reported that the whole Italian fleet has left Tripoli for Turkish waters,. The Italian government has sup pressed direct sailings between Tripoli and Malta owing to the leakage of news to foreign pa pers. All the mails from Tripoli have now to run the gauntlet of censorship at Sicily. Tripoli, Nov. 2.—The Turks this morning brought up a few guns to the south of El Mosre and opened fire. This was not effective, as mofet of the shells failed to explode. The Italian artillery soon silenced the guns and forced the enemy to retire. About 5; o’ clock last evening Tiirks appeared before the line of defenses and forced the Eigh r ty-second Italiail infantry to fail back from their position. Th^ cnisier Cario Alberto soon locat ed the Turkish artillery and by a well-directed and vigorous fire silenced it. WILL BE FIFTH THURSDAY BOLD CdTTON FOR I3C REDUCE ACREAGE . Columbia, S.

The fact that this November has a siur* plus of Thursdays, five in all. gave rise to some difference of opinion. President Taft set this matter at rest this week by njim- ing the last Thursday, Novem ber 30. An interesting contribution to the subject has besen made by the Atlanta librarian, Miss Kath- rine Wooten, who says: “I have had the ‘Messages And P ine»*s of the Presidents' carefiiUy gone over and find the folio ving Thanksgiving procla mation- issued by the various Pre clients: ‘•Washington, Thursday, No vember 26, 17h9. “Washincrton, Thursday, Feb- niarv 19, 1795, “John Adams, Wednesdaj, Mav 9. 1798; Thursday, April 25, 1799. “.viadison, third Thursday, Aug-tst. 1812; second Thursday, September, 1813; Thursday.

In the appotntment of s Sele«at{'>n of cotton growers at the North Caw {Jua state fair recently, with ln«tni«’ ttons to attend the meeting in New Or ieaos havlug for .its purpose the boid ing by farmers and others of a coa siderable proportion of this year's cot toD crop and the cortallment of n^xt year's acreage, is to be found one of many Indications of dissatisfaction »!X- Istlug over the present political re>ia tionshlp to the price of cotton. It Is said that President Taffs reci procity campaign and the Underwood tailff bills not only adversely affect ad general business during the year 19.11. but specifically caused the cotton mun- ufacturers to lose, by shrinkage (Mid decreased volume of trade, between $50,000,000 and 1100,000,000. ■ Crippled and with a prospect of more tariff agitation in 1812, cotton manufacturers have naturally t>«en unable to make purchases of cotton in the usual way, with the result that, with a full crop, political agitation bae created a decline in the price of tbc> staple thus far from 14 cents per pound to 0 ceiMx per pound, with predictions froin well posted quarters that a much lower range wHI be ex perienced. It Is further claimed that without the extra session for the diseussioii of reciprocity the Underwood tariff tnftas- ures would not have been Introduced and in conflequence there would liave been but little probability that coKon would have declined under the force of a full crop lower than 11 cent» per pound instead of registering in price the low water mark for years, If does today. The farmers in the south and the manufacturers of cotton generally are charging up a loss on this year’s srop St not less than $175,O(K),0OO, whi?h low they claim Is directly traceabiie to political Influence.
