GROWING UP

There's something the mat ter with the child that fails to grow up. A child that grows up too much, however, without proper filling out of flesh, is almost as badly off. Nothing will help these pale, thin wcedy" children like Scott's Emulsion. It supplies the rounding out of flesh and the rich inward nourishment of blood and vital organs which insures rapid growth a healthy and uniform develop ment.

Securities company. The gecnnd suit brought by the Hartman interests, and which would open up the whole question of the equity of the pro rata distribution, has not yet come to trial, and it is said that this suit will now be dropped.
 While interests familiar with the facts were extremely reticent when approached concerning the reported adjustment, it was admitted that there was strong likelihood of a comprom- fse being reached between the two in- terests, and it was added that if such an agreement was reached 1t would prove to be of far more comprehen- sive character than had been suspected by Wall street. The negotiations are now said to be at such a stage as not to permit of a public announcement.

HILL AND HARRIMAN
Good Outlook for Peaceful
 Settlement
It Is Thought That There Win Be an Abandonment of Northern Secur- iiies Litigation.

New York, Jan. 15.-Dednite infor- mation has been obtained that several conferences have been held during the last few days between the Hill and
 Hartman interests. Rumors of att teInpts of an adjustment of these fn- terests have been in circulation for q week At these conferences the entire Northern Securities dispute was dis cussed. While no information was gwen out regarding results, it was ad- mitted ir quarters thoroughly familiar with the situation that the outlook for an adjustment of the differences be- tween the rival interests in the North ern Securities is brighter than at any tune since these differences first arose.
 According to reports circulated in banking circles, the Hill interests hav- gained practically all the points at contest in the Northern Securities suit. It was stated that this does not neces- sar1ly mean that the Hartman inter ests will not appeal the case to the supreme court. As a matter of fact, ii IS expected that such an appeal will be taken. With the execution of 1nalc- ing this appeal, however, it is said that the Hartman interests have agreed to put no other obstacles in the way of carrying out the pro rata distribution of the assets of the Northern Securit- les company.
 This means that the Hartman ill- terests will drop tEe second suit that they brought against the Northern Se- curltleS company, and which has nev- CT been tried So far the legal contest has been confined to the securing of an injunction restraining the carrying out ot the proposed pro rata distribution or the assets of the Northern Securit- les company. An appeal was taken from the granting of this injunction by the Hill interests, and the decision on appeal was in favor of the Northern

Plot to Unload Undesirable Russanc
 on America Suspected.

Washington, D. C., Jan. 15.-Imm:- grafton inspectors have discovered what they believe to be a gigantic plot to assist paupers from Russia to the United States. A number of immi- grants have been detailed at Ellis Isl and, New York, awaiting a more com plete investigation of the alleged con- spiracy.
 Russian Hebrews drafted for service in the far east are, according to the belief of the immigration officials, spirited out of the czar's doninions in to Germany, and from Germany sent to the United States. Although the authorities thus far have discovered only a few of this peculiar class of irn- migrants, they are apprehensive that the system has already been respon- sible for hundreds of undesirable aliens coming to the United States and fear that if the scheme is not nipped in the bud thousands more will come.

SLAVERY IN FIELDS.
Abuses in Connecticut Are Difficult to
 Correct

Hartford Conn.,, Jan. 15.-The chil- dren of Connecticut do not suffer most in the factory, but in the field. In the small town districts real child slavery is found. On farms long deserted and then occupied by poverty stricken aliens from the shores oI Europe. boys and girls are made to toll necessarily, from long before sunrise until long into the evening hours In many cases these children belong to American families that have allowed their farms to run down, and have become impov- erished as the result of intemperance or sheer laziness.
 In the eastern part of Connecticut such conditions particularly prevail. Here the farmer looks upon his chill dren much the same as he does his horse or dog.

SCOTT Jones REAL ESTATE COMPANY BUYS AND SELLS REAL ESTATE FOR YOU

Of the uttermost benefit to the pas
sage was the Sequoyah election.
This showed the real sentiment of
the people and the sentiment for
two states has decreased since thai
tine. I have been studying the
situation in the Indian Territory
for some time and find that those
who voted for the double state
were actuated by the desire TO in
crease their property values by
locating county seats where they
owned land. The real statehood
idea was not much considered by
the voters.
'The sentiment Of the republi-
can party is to pass some form Of
statehood bill which will effect all
four Of the territories, 50 that the
question may be settled at once
This may result in an omnibus bill,
but I shall endeavor to get the
Oklahoma measure considered sep
arateIy. fthe bill is sent to the
senate with clauses for ali four
territories it will be arranged so that
the Oklahoma measure will come
first and the Arizona and New
Mexico section may be dropped
without affecting the Oklahoma
section.
Il believe however that the bill
will be presented by the committee
substantially as | now have it. The
only other thing which might
affect the passage besides the Ar-
zona-New Mexico agitation, is
the effort 70 force a prohibition
amendment but ! do no. think that
this can more than embarrass the
bill.
