MONEY WAS STOLEN IN
AN EASY OLD GAME
Negro Farmer is Victim of
Film FIam.

Swindled out of hundred dollars
in game as old as himself Philip
Hawkins, Woodworking old country
negro, appealed to the police yester-
day to help him get his hard-earned
money back by catching the precious
pair of scoundrels who lay in wait
for and robbed him of it.
1t was the same old game of finding
the pocketbook.'
Hawkins was coming along Lee
street when two town coons in front
of him ostensibly picked up a pocket
book one of them had thrown on the
sidewalk
1t contained a hundred dollar bill
or al least they told old Hawkins as
much.
Then they agreed to take the old
man into their confidence and give him
one-third of the money, "bein as he
was with them and help to find it." At
this outburst of generosity old Haw-
kins eyes assumed the size of red
balloons and he almost danced for
JOY at his good luck
But how were they to divide the
hundred dollar bill,
Knowing that Hawkins had money
in the bank the thieves suggested that
he go and draw out 500 in $40 bills.
Then they could divide the money
easily.
Though Hawkins is past 20 years of
age he did a Marathon stunt in run
ming to the bank. Of course the two
scoundrels awaited his return with
the money, for that was part of the
game. When he came with the bunch
of tens there was more trouble, for
the money could not be divided into
three piles.
My boss man lives in that house
yonder, and 1 will go ask him to di-
vide it for us, said one of the thieves,
taking the ten SO bills from the poor
old man.
But he never came back" and the
other thief vanished likewise. Haw-
kins finally grasped a thought and
told the police of his troubles, and
they are now looking for the finn
Hammers.

Whitestown Seminary and later in
Boston. From the latter city he went
to Brooklyn, III 1878 and engaged in
Journalistic work while pursuing the
study of law. He was admitted to the
bar in 1875, He became known and
feared as the foe of corruption in pub
lie life, and gained national reputa-
tion by his effective work in breaking
up rings within the Democratic
party of which he was an active ad-
herent and by the part he took in Sc
curing the conviction of John Y. Nc
Kane, a notorious and powerful Dem
ocratic boss, for election frauds. He
was elected Justice of the Supreme
Court of New York in 1898 on the
nomination of the Republican and In

He resigned from the bench when

characterized by liberal policy as far
as Sunday laws and other restrictive
measures aimed at popular recreations

Increase in five years 10 600, 600
1t will be seen from the above fig
ures that in 10000, known as the
"Sully year" the crop was 10,011,0 900
bales and the consumption only 10-
0S3, eco bales. and that last year the
consumption had increased 3,074,000
bales. or 30.49 per cent, The visible
supply on the 1st Of September this
season was l ,472 ,000, and on the 1st
of September, 1903, was $4,000 bales,
or only 955 900 bales less, therefore in
the "Sully year" with a visible sup
pIy on Sept 1 of $1,000 bales and a
crop of 10,011, 900 bales, the world had
10,52S,000 bales, of cotton, of which
they used 10,083,O00 bales The visi-
BILE supply on the 1st of September
this year is 1.472,000 bales If the
crop should only prove 10,500,000
bales. the world will have a supply
of only 11,972,000 bales, while last
year it actually consumed, in spite
of short time in England, 13,157, 900
bales. or a deficit of 1.1S5,000 bales.
Why, if in the "Sully year" the crop
had only been 100000 bales to S,000,-
900 bales, the situation would not be
as acute as it will be if this crop only
turns out 10,500,0OO bales, yet in that
year cotton sold for over Is cents. If
every American mill was to run on
half time from now until the end of
the season, | do not consider there
would be enough cotton to go around.
The spinners takings to October
goth, this year, were 1,923,o00 bales,
against only 1901 900 bales same time
last year (Which had been the record
takings of any year up to that time)
and against 1,14S,OOO bales the same
time in 10000.
Who can tell what price will dis.
count the above facts?
