During the winter that George ■ Washington and his troops were at [ Valley Forge a young Virginian. Lt. Arthur Carrington, disappeared and was believed to have deserted. More than a century later granite quarries were opened at French Creek Falls, 12 miles from Valley Forge. In the course of the work a cave was open ed aud in it was found the skeleton of a man. A rusty musket lay beside it and bits of rusty metal that had once been buttons and other parts of, a uniform were scattered among the' bones. In gathering up the bones for bur ial a glass bottle- was found. It con tained a letter to Miss Virginia Ran dolph, evidently the dead man's sweet heart. The letter was signed with 1 the name of the missing officer of the Continental army, and had been writ ten in blood. It told how he had been sent out from camp in charge of a small foraging expedition, how they were cut oft and pursued by a large party of British, how- he knew of the cave where his foragers could lie con cealed until the enemy had given up the search, because on a previous ex pedition he had hidden his horse in the cave while scouting. But, by the time he and his party reached the rocks the British were close.'' He abandoned his horse and ' flp d with the men on foot, but he was the only one to reach the cave. His men were taken prisoners by the Brit ish. Because the enemy knew the place was full of caves they did not search for him. They simply fired their rifles a number of times in the hope of frightening him into surren dering. A volley was fired close to the cave where he was hiding. The shots loosened a huge rock partly ov erhangibg the mouth of the cave where be was. As it fell it blocked the exit. The young officer was frightened at first, but was reassured of eventual escape by light entering the cave from another direction. When he was 1 convinced that the English were I gone he attempted to get out, but dis- I covered that the light came from a I small crack in the roof, far out of I reach, aud only large enough to pass a hand through. After many frantic ! efforts to move the stone that sealed his prison he resigned himself to i death by starvation and wrote the ! record of his fate in his own blood, j His bones were buried in the church yard at St. Mary's five miles away. | Rogers Hornsby, star batsman and 1 manager of the Cardinals, who has l just been presented with the Nation al League prize as the most valuable player of last season, has now been a major leaguer for a dozen years, and during all that time he has been a i member of the St. Louis team.

WEATHER CONDITIONS I ARE EXTREMELY DRY I Throughout State.—Very Few , Good "Stands” Anywhere. Raleigh. May 29.—Realizing the discouraging situation existing nver| practically all of tjie cotton belt, in' North Carolina, at this time, it may BOhjewbat relieve the situation to V now lliat all throug'.i this state and in most of the Soufh Atlantic states tha weather conditions have been <x tremely dry, with poor da mis of cot ton resulting. In a trip last week through t'le principal "olton belt of North Carolina, a fie'd was rarely found with a good stand and only oc casionally had any chopping been done, field news of the State depart ment of agriculture report. Thou sands of fields had the seed still lying ungerminated in the soil. No graaa j was growing, as the fields are too dry, and in many places cultivation waa unnecessary. While some replanting will be necessary, it is thought that most of the fields simply need enough | moisture to get the seed germinated. ’ The world consumes about 14,000,- 000 bales of American cotton annu ally. Thert* is a relatively large carry-over from last year, when over 16,000.000 bales were produced. It was that carry-over that drove the price down nnd incidentally, the price decline was out of all proportion to the excess production. The price for the present crop will be more or less than the present price, depending on wether the prospective production is less or more than 14,000,000 bales. It is to this state's advantage to make a small crop. When°the farmers will not do this themselves, it is probably fortunate for Nature to take a hand in reducing the production. Due to the fact that the violent critics of the cottou estimates last year, were men of influence and po litical prominence, there was legisla tion enacted in the United States Sen ate and House, prohibiting the gov ernment from furnishing the usual cotton estimates until late in the sea son. The farmer will, therefore, be compelled to rely upon the private es timates for information. Whether or not this is fair, to the farmer will remain for him to see. It is be lieved that the final crop cannot be indicated 1,080,000 and the August Ist reiiort 1,116,000 bales as com posed with the 1,101,200 finally ginned in North Carolina.

Dorothy Macknil would design clothes. Victor McLaglen would go back to the Jgaing ring. Mary Astor would be a pianist. Here's what the directors had to say: Alfred E. Green would run a book store'.

The Pathfinder. , 1 Six years ago a Milwaukee youth, with the aid of a companion, held up a store, getting only about $25 for his trouble, but when he was brought before the judge he was sentenced to 1 25 years in prison. Enough to take, the optimism out of any man! But this Milwaukee youth, who before his arrest had always been under the im pression that the world owed him a I living because he had never had a real tjhance to make one for himself, i began to change his philosophy toward j life after he had been in prison a ; few days. The young convict got it into his head that he would like to study; he had never received much education. So through a University of Wisconsin extension course he took up simple | arithmetic. He had to work over time in prison to pay for bis tuition. | When he finished arithmetic the youth took up algebra and electrical engi neering. He made high grades in his examinations. Somewhere hidden in this young convict was a genius for inventing. He conceived the idea of an electric sign and flasher; he worked this out and ! patented his invention. Now this in ventor-convict ia working out other ideas, among which are two devices for Use in knitting hosiery. But the beat thing of all that thia Wilwaukee ' youth has done is to set an example I to other men in prison. The world . ewea no one a living, bdt it will re ward generously anyone who ia wiU , ing to apply himaelf to uaeful work and be honest with himaelf. Signor Mussolini has decreed that , when attending future receptions at the Italian court ladles shall wear , special toilettes bearing long trains.
