IN APPEAL
For the Home for the Friendless.

For The Home for the Frienbless.
The time has come when it is neces-
sary to make a public appeal for aid
to carry on work of thirty-two years
standing The Home for the Friendless
has been doing a rescue work for all
sive way as far as the public is con-
cerned. 1t has prospared to magnifi-
cent degree, and now from the prmi-
tive structure of early years has arisen
a fine building given by one of the
noblest and most philanthropic women
Of our city, to whom it cannot be too
grateful. With this new bu.l5ing, INV
ever the work has become hr ader,
heavier and more expensive to carry.
Donations owing to the multiplicity of
charities, have become less rather than
greater. Some, seeing this new struc-
ture have felt thai it must be sutfi-
GENTLY endowed and give their contr.-
buttons to newer effort't This charity
las never had an app copriation from
the city, although for thirty-two years
it has helped purify its social records
by the noble rescue work IT has con-
Quoted, bringing errlng girls to lives of
purity and Christian faith. 1t has
helped relieve the city CT the actual
burden and care Of hundreds OF old
women and children.
We ask the public to help this noble
work. Money is needed s2rely to carry
it on at all, and there are such posi-
bilities in the work.
New Haven is a generous public to
deal with when perfectly informed on
a subject. 1t is proposed to tide over
the actual necessities at the Home by
holding a donation day on May "a, and
donation day viii be held regularly
hereafter In tine spring instead Of au-
tumn. as has been the custom VII.
not the people of philanthropic tenden-
cies come to the Afternoon tea and
cake sale at the Home on that day, look
into the work the Home is doing and
become Interested in this noble charity?
Approaching fully the aid the Home |
has received in the past, the managers
feel sure that the public will respond |
to their appeal and assist them in this |
unexpected crisis.

IN AND ABOUT THE COURTS
JUDGE TOWNSEND GRANTS A DIS
CHARGE IN BANKRUPTCY.

for Divosce--Assignmen of Gases to be
Heard by Judge Robinson This Week
go Finding of Facts Submitted by Judge
Shumway-Other Court News.
shumway-other Court News.

Judge Townsend of the United States
court has handed down a decision
granting discharge from bankruptcy
to Julian #. Schorer, former wholesale
crockery dealer on State street. The
judge says:
THE opposition to the petition for a
discharge was based on the ground
that long prior to the passage of the
bankruptcy act the bankrupt had, with
fraudulent intent, concealed his finan-
cial condition and destroyed or con-
cealed his books Of accounts, etc. This
in insufficient. The referee does not
find that the bankrupt, since the pas
sage of the bankrupt act has destroy
ed or concealed said books, except in
so far as might be inferred from GER
tain facts, the most important Of
which are that the books used by him
in his business were, in 1897, transfer
red to his brother-in-law who pur-
chased the business, and that said
brother-in-law, William Froelich, is
now residing at New Haven, and that
no evidence was produced of a request
that he produce said books and said
Froelich was not called as a witness
for either side. This finding is INSULT
cient to show fraudulent concealment
on destruction of books The discharge
is granted.

There are so many remedies offered for
this complaint that we should be careful in
selecting the right one. What you really
need is-not a mere purgative which will
require increased doses and finally cease act
ing--but well-seasoned medicine, which,
while it cleanses, at the same time strengthens.

MUCH SMUGGLING BEING DONE
Federal GRAND JURY MAKES THE
ASSERTION IN A REPORT.
Inadequate Federal Force to Guard
the Mexican Border and Thieves
HIVE Ample Opportunity.

Ell Paso, Texas, April 1.-THE Federal
grand jury rendered rather remarkable
report to Judge Maxey on the question of
smuggling. The jurors said: I'VE beg to
call attention to a condition of affairs on
the Rio Grande border, which, In our opin-
ion, should be brought to the notice Of
the executive department of the govern
ment. From Langtry to Ell Paso, dis
lance OF several hundred miles. this sec
ton is inadequately protected by the
United States. We are satisfied that SNUG
Cling on a large scale is being constantly
carried on. This arises from the fact that
the force allowed by the government is
too small to properly protect this exposed
and sparsely settled border. We base our
opinion in this matter on evidence before
us, which, although not sufficient at this
time to justify indictments. still convinces
us that great deal of smuggling of cattle
and merchandise Is being constantly aud
successfully done. We, therefore, recon-
mend that the secretary of the treasury
consider this matter carefully and make
such increase in the force OF employees of
the customs department as will put stop
to this unlawful contraband trade. A trade
which is not only unlawful, but is unfair
to our law-abiding citizens, who are thus
compelled to compete with smugglers and
cattle thieves"

A PROFITABLE INDUSTRY.
HOW Cotton Factories Are Multiply

How Cotton Factories Are Multiply
ing in the south.
Charleston News and Courier.
The Chattanooga Tradesman prints an
interview with Mr.. John 2. Searles, with
regard to a tour he has recently made in
the South, In the course of which he says:
I'm all parts of the South the cotton
mills were reported as profitable and
crowded with orders The splendid cotton
duck mill at Columbus S. c.. is one of the
finest mill plants l have ever seen. and
its electrical equipment is superior to that
of any mill with which l am familiar in
New England. Its general manager stated
that it could sell double its present out
put. the demand for its goods coming
from all parts of the world. In North
Carolina l found that one county has
twenty-five cotton mills in operation,
with Ave more projected In that county
the farmers are said to be so prosperous,
owing to the local demand for diversified
agricultural products, as TO be free from
debt, with a good supply of cash to their
credit. their barns filled with corn and
their lighthouses with provisions"
1t appears from this that the several
communities in South Carolina which
or are preparing to build them have made
no mistake in their calculations. The cot
ton mills already in operation in all parts
OF the South are profitable and crowded
with orders" The big duck mill at Co
lumbia could sell double its present out
put and the demand for its goods comes
from all over the world What is particu-
larly worth noting, however. is the report
the extraordinary enterprise of the
people OF the North Carolina county.
They have twenty-five cotton mills al
ready In operation. not one of them per-
haps twenty years old, and have pro
jected Ave more" Evidently, after giving
cotton mills very extensive trial they
are we'll satisfied with their experience, or
they would not go on building And the
farmers of the county share literally the
advantages of their neighbors. They are
so prosperous that they are out of debt.
1t is not practicable perhaps. for any
county in South Carolina to have twenty
seven or twenty-five cotton mills, but it
really appears, from the example OF our
North Carolina neighbors that 1t would be
good policy for every one to have two or
three mills, at least.
