A most appetizing and healthful break

boiled eggs-this meal will furnish full
strength and nourishment up to the next

One pound of Grape-Nuts has more
nourishment-that the system will alb

person wishes to avoid during the warm
season; it's rich. nutty flavor added to the

/, Chicago, June a The most serious
trouble in the meat, strike occurred in
Crosby street in, the district which Is
known in police circles as Little He'll. "

tenant Collins charged the crowd. num-
Der Of women came up to the aid Of the
strikers and were the fercest fighters Of
the lot. One officer was knocked down
with a brick, and his companions then
drew their clubs and made war with such
energy that in few minutes the street
was filled with men with bleeding heads.
Lieutenant Collins saw that his men
would be overpowered He ordered them
to fall back slowly. toward the wagons,
and the crowd, seeing in this action a
token of victory, pressed in with shouts,
and the volleys of stones came more
thickly. =, ~ ts.., =.
The police fell back until they had
formed a compact mass close to the
wagons, and then at. Collins order they
drew their revolvers and charged the
crowd once more. This time the fight
was more desperate than before, and 1t
was over in much less time. The police
struck down numbers of men and used
their clubs and revolver butts with en-
ergy, and in three minutes the crowd was
broken and in full fight.
Last night another serious fight took
place at Twelfth and State streets. Meat
was being removed from, the packing
house plants by two retail firms-Froh

Into Fine Detail

IL
: Into Fine Detail.
Although the defense in the Gardner
case has been unable to get hold of the
'" big mitt" ledger, over which there has
been much discussion, Attorney w.. W.
Erwin, during his cross examination of
Billy Edwards yesterday afternoon.
succeeded IN drawing from the witness
what was, in effect, recapitulation of
the various payments of money the "big
mitt" combine claims to have made to
the police in return for protection. The
ledger itself could show no more than
this, and probably the defense is now sat
isfed. The payments detailed by Edwards
were as follows:
The first money paid to Irwin A. Gardner
was handed to him in Mayor Anles' medical
Office, Sunday afternoon, Nov. g. at about
a quarter past two o'clock. The money was
paid over by Link Crossman, the amount
being 5000. While Crossr1an and Edwards
were in the office, both Mayor Ames and Dr..
Clark walked through the room. On the
following day the gang opened a Joint the
first one operated by them in Minneapolis.
The second payment was few days later
in the joint at 327 Second avenue S. The
amount was $50. It was paid at a quarter
before six in the evening.
The third payment was made on Nov IL,
10 or IA, the witness was not certain which,

The money was given to Norbeck to hand
to Gardner, and Gardner afterwards ack-
nowledged its receipt. The amount was $50,
the stipulated sum that Gardner was to re-
ceive each week.
The fourth payment was made at Gardner
home Sunday evening, Nov. ii. It amounted
to $500, and Gardner said it was to be given
to Mayor Ames. Later he said it had been
given to the mayor and that the ''old man
was much pleased. !"
The fifth payment was of $50. 1t was made
either on Nov. 90 or Fl, and was handed to
Gardner in the Joint at 242 Fourth avenue S.
The sixth payment was not, made IN the
presence of the witness, but he afterwards
paid his half Of the amount, $3.50 The money
was given to Gardner by Link Crossman on
one Of the first three days of December.
There were other small amounts, but they
were paid for special work done by Gardner,

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1902-12-29

The question as to whether farming
pays is not fundamental 1t is merely
incidental. A necessary occupation
must pay. Too often it is answered in
the negative by the mere citing of
cases in which farming is unremunera-
tive. The abandoned farms of New
England may not pay, else they might
not have been abandoned. Yet even
here there may be fallacy. Perhaps
the farm that has ceased to be profit.
able under the old system of farming
may be made to pay under a new sys.
TEN. Strictly speaking there are prob.
ably no abandoned farms in New Eng.
land. There may be change in own.
ership and in methods, but the lands
still yield crop for somebody. They
have not reverted to the public domain.
The management of land is undergoing
a radical change. This change may
result in hardships to the individual
who will not accept the new order, but
it works to the betterment of the farm
and consequently OF the community.
Farming pays even though farmer
here and there may fail.--F. Ii. Sweet,
in The Epitomist.
