DECIDED IN BUYERS FAVOR.
Suit in Thomas County Growing Out
of Failure of Grower to Deliver.

of Failure of Grower to Deliver.
A suit just tried in the City Court
of brownsville of interest to cotton
men was the case OF ]. X. Living
ston of Cordele against E. p Ford
growing out of the latter's failure to
deliver cotton bought by Livingston
from Ford to be delivered in October,
Ford claiming that it was a gambling
contract.
In the evidence it developed that
the transaction was a bona fide one,
and that Livingston had bought dur
ing the summer 1906 bales to be
delivered in the fall, and had sold
against these purchases IA, 800 bales
and that he had shipped and deliv-
cred the cotton sold.
AS soon as the evidence was in
Judge Hammond was about to direct
a verdict in favor of Livingston when
the defendant, Mr.. Ford, arose and
stated in open court that it was clear
ly a valid contract for spot cotton
and withdrew his defense.
Mr.. Livingston is one of the sew
eral shippers who this season bought
cotton for fall delivery and suffered
severe loss by the failure of planters
to deliver AS this is the first of the
many cases of this kind to come up
in court it is of much Importance to
those interested in these suits as we'll
as the future of the cotton business
in this state.
Several prominent cotton men
from other places were in attendance
to hear the result of the case.

THIEVES ARE RUN TO EARTH
Two of POstOffiCe Robbers Are Cap
tured in New York. Most of
Loot Recovered.


NEW YORK.-Postoffice inspec
tors, secret service operatives, city
detectives and railroad police today
drew a drag net in New York for the
third man accused of having stolen
S88, 900 in stamps and money from
the Richmond, Va, postoffice between
last Saturday night and Monday
morning. The hunted man escaped
when two of his alleged confederates
were trapped last night in the Grand
Central station and arrested, after a
terrific fight in a crowded street.
Nearly $50, 900 worth of stamps were
found in the trunk they claimed.
The prisoners are Frank Chester,
alias Charles ]. Adams, who regis
tered at a hotel here as Charles Hart
field of Buffalo, and Fred Cunning
ham, known to the police as an ac-
complete of Chester. The men were
captured after one of the cleverest
bits of trailing the postofTice inspect
Ors have done in some time.
One trunk went to the Hotel Avon,
where Chester put up. The second
was found in ferry house. While
detectives watched Chester appeared
and had it sent to the Grand Cen
trail. Detectives were disguised as
bagga gemen, and watched for his APP
pearance there Late Hast night a
boy appeared with a check for it.
He was told the owner would have
to appear. The boy summoned Ches-
ter, who was accompanied by Cum
ningham and the third man.
While they were parleying the
trio became suspicious. Two broke
and ran. Chester and Detective Joe
Daily clinched and fought fiercely al
over the baggage room for severa
minutes, till Chester was overpow'
cred, Cunningham, who to the pO
lice said he was banker of Lon
don, dashed up Forty-second street
with a crowd in pursuit. He bowlet
aver patrolman, but was overtaker
after battle with half a dozen Off
GERS. The third man, who fled in the
opposite direction escaped.
With two trunks in the possession
of the police it was declared toda!
that all the loot would be recovered
within a short time.
Cunningham Famous Crook.
Frederick Cunningham, arrested
here late last night, after a desperate
battle, was today identified as Ed

criminals in the world, and is said tt

iail-breaking and murder. Accord
ing to the information given out
Cunningham possesses half a million
dollars, owns fine residence in al
exclusive section of Chicago and il
the owner of long string of race
horses, the most celebrated of which
is Fay, known on the racing tracks
from coast to coast.

When arrested Cunningham had

Thrifty Peasants Also Brought Along
Their Carts, Tools and Wooded
Shoes. Have Special Train.
NEW YORK.-For the first time
a special train of the first-class has
been put to use to take to the west
So second-cabin passengers, colonists
from Holland, who came in on board
the Lapland of the Red Star Line
from Antwerp.
All the members of six sturdy
Dutch families and few scattering
neighbors made up the party, who
brought not only their smaller house
hold belongings, but carts and tools,
wooden shoes and other articles for
! farm use-a novel sight to the men
accustomed for years to the meeting
| of immigrants on the steamship piers.
Money a-plenty the party had, one
family displaying more than $4,000.
and when the immigration inspectors
had figured the cash and bills of cred
lit it amounted to nearly $4,000.
/ All in perfect health, there was no
delay on account of medical inspec-
ton, and the only wait was that
caused by the amount of baggage
presented for the inspection of tie
customs officers. At sunset the party
and the baggage were transferred to
the Erie station in Jersey, where the
special train was awaiting them, and
all sat down to dinner in the dining
car for their sole use.
Headed For New York Mills.
The train was made up of two
tourist sleeping cars, a dining car,
two baggage cars and a day passen-
ger car, and was to run to New York
Mills, station in central Minnesota.
Brought here under a colonization
scheme begun by Bishop James Nc
Goldrick, of the diocese of st. Paul,
the families will be settled on small
farms in the timber district of Min
nesota, the farms being cleared by
"a corporation at low rate.
With the immigrants was the Rev.
August Van den Heuvel, a Dutch
priest who settled in Minnesota some
time ago, and through whose influ-
ence the families have come. Three
Dutch priests, the Rev Henricus van
der Aa, the Rev. Wilhelminus van
Dinter and the Rev. Henri Yer
mans, whose parishioners the immi-
grants were in Holland, accompanied
the party.
Entire Colony to BE Built.
Churches, schools and dwellings
will be built for the immigrants, and
within a short time nearly a hun
dred more persons are due to arrive
to join the colonists They are of
the type to whom new territory has
no terrors, and there were several
large families. Mr.. and Mrs. Nicho-
las Elsen were surrounded by their
II children, six boys and five girls,
and servant, Matthys Arts. Mr.. and
Mrs. Petrus Van der Kolk watched
carefully that their eight charges did
not stray, and Mr.. and Mrs. Corne-
Illus BrOuwers cared for five.

MOSQUITOES

All authorities say without the mo-
squito there would be no malaria. Ma
laria in it's many forms is the enemy
of the tropic countries.
The mosquito must have water to
breed in. Keep your cisterns and rain
barrels we'll screened. See that there
is no stagnant water on your prem
Uses, and if your neighbor will do the
same, you will have few or no mos
quitOes.
A spoonful of water in an old can or
bottle is enough to hatch millions of
mosquitoes. Water standing in drains,
cutters, flower pots and in the rainy
season in piles of leaves or moss will
serve as breeding places. Pour little
kerosene oil every week in places that
cannot be handled otherwise. The mo-
squito pest can be reduced rs per cent.
If there is united effort against it. Re-
port any mosquito breeding places to
the sanitary man.
