New York, that the company would
buy the 1906 and 1907 crops at 16

and that in view of their determin-
alton to raise no crop this year, the
committee was sworn to secrecy. The
who became acquainted with the sit

White Burley board of control have
heretofore only asked l 3 cents per

1907, but it is claimed that this is
accounted for by the agreement to

SOLD CIGARS GAVE AWAY BEER
The Generosity of Blind Tom To-
ward His Friends Lands Him
in Jail.

Through his generosity in giving
his friends a glass Of beer every
time they bought a cigar John
Keith, colored, familiarly known as
Blind Tom, is a prisoner in the
county jail with charges of vio1at-
ing the local option law pending
against him.
Blind Tom formerly conducted a
little cigar stand and hash house
down on East Main street. Probably
with view to increasing his trade
in base burners Tom conceived the
happy idea of giving a glass of beer
with each stogie. The plan worked
admirably and Just when Tom was
congratulating himself upon the
success of his scheme he found him
self in the meshes of the law. His
transactions in rolled alfalfa and ex-
tract of hops reached the ears of the
grand jury and a prompt investiga-
ton was made of his method of do
ing business. AS a result indictments
charging violations of the local op-
ton law were returned by that in
quisitorial board. In the mean time
Tom had gone to Mineral Wells for
his health, but he returned Tuesday
night in the custody of Constable
McCalpin. He was placed in Jail to
until he can have a hearing in the
county court.
