German and British spinners are
putting into execution their threat 10
buy land and raise cotton in Texas.
The sale Of several tracts Of land. ag-
cregating nearly 2J0O0O acres, in
southwest Texas to a Berlin firm led
to the disclosure that German and Eng
lish spinners are the actual purchasers
and that they plan to buy more land
upon which to grow cotton. Their
agents hold options on several thou
sand acres. all in Frio, Lasalle, Webb,
Duval and McMullen counties.
Plans have been perfected for col
onizing German cotton growers. who
agree TO sell their crops 10 the spin
ners direct.
The spinners contend that the grower
will get better average price for his
product season by season than under
present conditions The details of the
plan are not announced. but in some
way the spinners will hold sort Of
lien on the land to insure the sale to
them of all cotton grown on it,
The first colony of about 800 German
families will settle on the land about
Jan. ]. The price of the land ranged
from 81 TO $50 an acre.

prise to His American Friends.
"If two people love each other

character.
Mr.. Barrie was married in 1894 to
Miss Mary AnseIi the actress. who
appeared in his first play. walker
London which was produced seven
teen years ago.
The news of his divorce suit came
as a. great shock to persons in Amer
lea who have personal acquaintance
with the Scotch author The idea OF
divorce in connection with the author
of .'When Mans Single" seemed in
congruous and painful.
Mrs. Barrie has appeared little in
public life. Alter her marriage she
retired from the stage Since then
I they have always appeared TO be a
most devoted couple They had no
children. but they adopted Miss Pau
line Chase in place of a daughter of
4 their own.
4 The wonderful grasp of feminine
character which Mr. Barrie had shown
in his books and plays has always
been supposed to- have been inspired
in some degree by his perfect agree
ment with his wife.
