McCafferty was recently released from Ohio penitentiary after serving a sentence for nonsupport. Being ambitious, he set out to make a liv- ing. A nationally known soap concern wanted a list of prospective cus- tomers to whom it could send sam- ples, The donor of the list received a bar of soap for each name he sub- mitted, so McCafferty went to a cem- etery in Urbana, near his home, and compiled an extensive list. Soon he had enough soap to last a life time but added to it by calling at the postoffice and collecting the samples mailed his clients. Then he sold the soap. Encouraged, McCafferty answered an advertisement to obtain signa- tures petitioning the city of Urbana for improvements. For a day and a half he laboriously copied signa- tures in neat rows, but some one no- ticed they were in alphabetical or- der and investigated. Yesterday he was returned to the penitentiary to serve the remainder of his sentence for violation of his parole. GEORGIA BANK at} ’ PRINCE CANCELS AFRICAN TRIP “AS SICK KING HOLDS HIS OWN CHAIN CLOSES AFTER CRASH State Banking Department Examines Affairs of Eight Institutions Macon, Ga., Nov. 28.—(#)—The affairs of eight middle Georgia banks were in the hands of the state banking department behind closed doors today as a sequel to the clos- ing of the Fourth National Bank of Macon Monday. The Macon bank was their federal reserve agent. In each case officers assured de- Positors of protection and an- nounced that reorganization and re- opening would be effected as soon as possible. Heavy withdrawals brought about by a “financial scare” over the condition of the Fourth Na- tional were blamed in every instance. Meanwhile the directorate of the Fourth National was busy arranging conferences looking toward reorgan- ization and recapitalization at $750,000 instead of $500,000, as at present. The largest of the eight institu- tions closing yesterday was the Citi- zens Bank of Fort Valley, capitalized at $100,000. The others had capital listed between $15,000 and $25,000. Macon and Fort Valley are among the larger shipping centers in Geor- gia’s extensive peach-growing sec: tion, While officers of the Fourth Na- tional yesterday were issuing a statement which said a two-hour run Monday was due to “baseless ru- mors” connected with the collapse of negotiations for sale of the in- stitution to Atlanta financiers, the city commission was passing a reso- lution of confidence in its officers and directorate. The resolution urged all citizens to adopt an atti- tude of confidence and cooperation. An altercation over the closing of the Fort Valley bank yesterday was responsible for knife wounds which today confined George Slappey, a business man of that city, to his bed. Dr, W. S. White, mayor of Fort Val- ley, was the other participant, sev- eral witnesses said. No charges ve been placed against the mayor. The encounter was said to have been preceded by a “friendly argument” over policies of the city in depositing municipal funds. Neither was interested in the management of the bank. — | | Biblical Penalty Is Doled Erring Youth Hamiltin, 0., Nov. 28—(AP)— James Buckner, 26, must write 1,000 copies of a selected Bible verse and The Weather : Generally fair tonight and Thura- day.

PRICE FIVE CENTS | SET LIVESTOCK SALE MARK } STORM BREWS OVER FLOODED One of ‘Turkey, Programs HEREFORDS ARE SOLD FOR $350 BY PATTERSONS Missouri Slope Farmers Pur- chase Highest Quality Ani- mals First SALE WAS SATISFACTORY Milton Yearling Beef Short- horns Top Class at $225 Per Head A pair of Hereford bulls, sold by the Patterson Land company of Bis- marck, brought $350 each to set a record at the purebred livestock sale at Mandan yesterday. More than 40 purebred hogs and cattle of the 80 offered for sale vere sold in the sale, which was the irst step in a movement to bring more purebred animals into the dis- trict sponsored by the Greater North Dakota association. A. R. Miesen and R. C. Newcomer, Burleigh and Morton county agri- cultural agents respectively, had charge of the local arrangements for the sale. Farmers Want Quality The fact that the highest priced and best bred animals were sold first indicated that the farmers in this district desire animals of qual- ity, according to Miesen. Because more than one offered to buy sev- eral of the highest-priced animals, purchasers had to draw straws for the privilege of making the pur- chase, he said. “The sale proved satisfactory,” according to B. E. Groom, chairman of the livestock committee of the Greater North Dakota association. A great number of purebred stoch were sold in the eastern part of this district last spring, Miesen said, and it was noticeable that most of the sales yesterday took the animals tc the southern, western, and northern parts of the territory. “We could hardly interest a buyer in an animal under a year old,” Groom said today. “This was not: withstanding the fact that the young stock sold for an average of $50 less per head than the matured stock. A check up shows that prac tically every sire over a year old and in shape to use at this time waz sold or had a prospective buyer.” A pair of yearling beet short: horns, sold by the John Wild Es- tate, Milton, selling for $225 each, drew the highest prices in the class. The pair was a yearling bull and heifer, the bull being the champior. junior yearling at the Cavalier county fair last July. The two animals sold by the Pat- terson Land company went to Jack- son Ripley, Nishe, and Keogh broth- ers, Beulah. Another choice pair of animals went to Hagerott, Mandan, at $300 each. Wild Sold Many Other sales were made from the John Wild Estate herd at prices ranging from $125 to $200. Sales made by the Greater North Dakota association follow: Guernsey yearling to J. E. Hayes, Hazelton, $125; beef Shorthorn to J. H. Emch, Leith, $200; milking Shorthorn to G. R. Brostrom, Wil- ton, $165; Angus to Fred G. Hof- necht, Mandan, $170; Angus to E. R. Patridge, Harmon, $160; polled Shorthorn to M. J. Froelich, Ral- eigh, $160; beef Shorthorn to D. E. Jones, Leith, $150; Holstein to Julius Kast, Turtle Lake, $150; milki Shorthorn to Anton Neibauer, Huff, $150; milking Shorthorn to A. P. Westlin, Hazen, $200; milking Shorthorn to Nels A.

Scheick, Lark, $225; and beef Shorthorn to Christ Beyerla, Golden Valley, $140. All stock sold by the association was under one year old. A number of young bulls from lo- cal herds were sold and Nagel and Strutz, Bismarck, sold a three-year old polled Shorthorn. 5 Others Want Eales in commenting on prospects for future ice Groom said that parties from three different points asked him to arrange sales in their territories.
