The daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Ind. Ter. [Okla.]) 1898-1902, 1899-06-19

A certain Cleveland youth has a
watch which he tenderly cherishes.
Several years ago it was given him
on his birthday, and there wasn't a
prouder youth in town. The very
night after he received it he wore it
to party. After the affair was end
ed he asked permission of one of the
young women to see her home, and
his escort was accepted. She lived
some distance from the scene of the
party and as he walked along with
her he felt little dubious about his
personal safety. There was good
deal of talk about footpads and some
very bold holdups had occurred.
Presently he noticed a suspicious
character dodging along in the shad-
ow across the street. The suspicious
looking character finally hurried
ahead of them and then crossed to
their side of the street. This was too
much for the youth.
Say" he said to the young wom-
an in a hoarse whisper, you'll have
to go the rest of the way alone-I-
I'm blamed if I want to lose this
new watchr'
And he actually left her then and
there and hurried along the back
track. She wasn't far from home
and didn't mind the desertion bit.
but the deserving youth didn't hear
the last of the story for many
months. Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Arrangements were made this
morning for the shipment of

and they will probably arrive to-
morrow. The deceased was well
known in this country, having
lived in and around town for
4umber of years. He had been en-
gagged in handling blooded horses

DEATH OF COBB M'NAIRN
Wife and Widow in Three
Short Weeks.

The news of the sudden death OF
Cobb McNairn, which occurred
Saturday evening, was received
with surprise, as he was on the
streets Saturday morning, and ate
dinner at his home, as usual.
Shortly after, however, he was
seized with a spasm and suffered
great agony till his death, a few
hours later. Deceased was 80
years old, was born in Georgia,
and had lived in Vinita some five
or six years. He was married
three weeks ago to Miss Louisa
Nidiffer and had been house
keeping just one week. He was
twin brother of VIM. McNairn,
who died here about three years
ago, and was buried by his side
In the cemetery north of town
yesterday afternoon. The funeral
was generally attended, the process
zion being one OF the largest seen
in Vinita in a long time. The
circumstances attending the young
mans death are peculiarly sad.
Services were held at the house
by Rev. M. T. Butler, and the
burial was conducted by the Ma
sonic fraternity.

ROUSDLAP COTTON BALES.
To Satisfy the Demand the Entire Crop
viii Eventually be so BaIed.

For once the cotton planter has
an ally among the great corpora.
tions. For years the cotton tie
ring. the bagging combine and the
compress people have all lived of
the cotton grower. There was no
way to fight them and so they
| grew rich on their enormous prof.
it's, which the farmers had to pay.
Now the American Cotton com.
pany with its roundlap bale is in
the field and it is so reyolutioniz.
ing the cotton handling business
that many of the old expenses are
necessarily wiped out. The farm
ers must inevitably get large
share OF this saving but the old
compress people and the bagging
and tie trust are raising great
commotion against the American
Cotton company as though they
had always been the friend OF the
farmer. Unfortunately for them
they never played the friendly act
before and now the farmers doubt
the sincerity Of their repentance.
The Roundlap bale is the trade
mark name given By the American
Cotton company to its round bale
to distinguish it from all other
bales. The cotton mills of New
England and of Europe are eager |
buyers of this bale because as com. |
pared with all other bales it has |
many advantages covered by broad |
patents, which greatly lessen the
cost of manufacture to the mill. /
This Roundlap bale eliminates two
Or three processes in manufacture
ing and as the cotton mills of the
world are willing to pay more for
his cotton than any other, it nat
lrally follows that to secure the
highest prices all southern cotton
must in time be put up in this
Roundlap form. Mr.. VIM. C.
lowering, one of the most distin-
cotton mill men of New
England says:
Il do not hesitate to say that the
ime is coming when the cotton
manufacturers all over the world
vill insist that their cotton shall
e delivered to them in the form

AMERICAN COFFEE FOR AMERI.
 CANS.

In the past five years abaut $200,- 100000 has been sent out of the United States in the purchase of coffee. This country consumes nearly one-half the total coffee production of the world. Hereafter this large sum of money is not going to be paid altogether to foreigners
 American citizens will get some of it. Coffee is now the largest article of export from Puerto Rico, and the product there can be greatly increas ed, since very large proportion of the island is capable of producing coffee, which grows most successful on the highlands and mountain sides. In parts of Cuba conditions are similar, and at one time the coffee production of that island amounted to nearly 100000 pounds annually, though after the introduc- tion of the sugar industry it prac- tically disappeared, sugar growing being more profitable. In Hawaii coffee is being successfully grown, and the area there can be material ly increased. The same Is true of the Philippines Coffee is about to become az American product. So are lot of other things which we have heretofore had to buy of for eigners. Few people realize what very big country we are going to have presently.
