The American shoe industry is in the grip
of the Leather Trust.
There is only one shoe manufacturing con-
cern in the United States that can put what
they know to be honest leather into their
shoes.
They can do this because they own and
operate their tanneries independent of
the Leather Trust.
The name of that concern is Endicott,
johnson & Co. Their tanneries and factories
are located at Endicott, n. Y.
Back In 1898 III. B. Endicott and Geo. f.
Johnson formed a partnership and started to
manufacture shoes.
Then the leather began to show bad quail
ties. The Leather Trust began to starve
the leather IN tanning and fnishing-instead
Of using the slower and more expensive pro-
cesses t6st give toleather its wearing qualities.
Cheap Processes IN Trust Tanneries
Processes and short cuts crept In all
along the line. Hemloek used in place of good
oak tan bark. Chemical tannages that load
ND the weight of the leather-au sole leather
is sold by weight.
These conditions have existed for years
In Trust tanneries-the situation is getting
worse instead of better. Only recently, DR..
Wiley, the Government chemist, declared
there should be law ike the Pure Food
Law to prevent tanners from using adulter-
ants In their processes"
Various cheap adlllterants are used IN large
quantities by the Leather Trust to weight
the leather-it looks 'fulP' and plump
but is really 'brashy" and rapidly breaks up
under wear.
Endicott, johnson & Co. refused to put
that kind of leather into their shoes.
Breaking Grip Of Leather Trust
So Endicott and Johnson built their own
tanneries. Today they tan every pound
OF leather they put into their shoes.
They tan every batch Of hides for definite
kind of shoe, and perfect it In the tanning and
finishing for the service it Is to give-an OBJ
vious advantage in the working qualities OF
the leather and the durability of the shoes.
Their ''Forest Oak is honest old-fashioned
straight oak tanned sole leather.
Their 'rKromelk" is the first and only
chrome-tanned sole leather to be perfected
and put to practical and satisfactory service.

Extorionate Profits Saved

Endicott, johnson & Co. find it perfectly
feasible to produce dependable, long-wear-
ing shoe and sell It at the price that the aver
age man wants to pay for his shoes.
Buying their hides In the open markets Of
the world, and operating their own tanneries.
they cut three profits out of the cost of making
the shoes-the profits of the Hide Trust, the
Leather Trust and the Leather Jobber.
Then they cut out the Shoe Jobber's
proft-selling direct to your home shoe dealer
and $4,000 other retailers In this country.
Thanks to this hide TO retailer policy
Endicott, johnson & Co. can save you so
cents to $1.00 On every pair of shoes you buy.
This policy-and It's service to the shoe
wearer-has made them the largest shoe
manufacturers In the world.
Endicott, Johnson & Co. have the most
expert staff of shoe designers In the trade.
And style IN an Endicott-J Johnson shoe means
something-the real leather is back of the
style. The shoe is pliable yet firm and
solid. It holds its shape, It's FIT, its finish.
You can buy Endicott-Johnson shoes for
men, women and children-shoes for business
wear, work shoes, dress shoes. school shoes
for h0ve and Cirlc

UNCLE AND NEPHEW IN A
QUARREL WHEN SMALL. BOY
USED Pts- OF.
Victim Brought Here From Up A., 3.
& A. Road for Treatment, But In
jury Proved to Be Only a Flesh
Wound-Fight in Wayne County.

After being in the city hospital for
few days suffering from slight
pistol shot wound, Henry Harrison re-
turned to his home yesterday at Lott,
small station on the A., B. & A.
railroad. just above Thalmann
The shooting of Harrison occurred
two or three days ago and seems to
have been a regular family fight, in
which three men named Harrison,
all closely related, played the leading
roles
1t seems that Henry Harrison, the
injured man, and his uncle, Frank
Harrison, became engaged in a
quarrel, which later led to fight,
Another Harrison, a young man 1G or
II years of age and son Of Frank
Harrison, then joined in the miXup
and it was he who used the pistol.
Two or three different reports con-
cerning the difficulty have been afloat,
but it seems that after the two men
had fought for a few minutes the
younger Harrison secured a pistol and
fired upon his cousin and his fathers s
nephew. One Of the bullets took eff
fects, and this seems to have ended
the fight
The injured man was brought to
Brunswick and placed in the city hos
pital for treatment, but an investiga-
ton proved that the injury was not a
serious one, being only flesh wound,
and all three of the principals in the
fight left yesterday for their homes.
Whether or not there will be any
arrests in the case is not known. Lott
is in Wayne county, just across the
Giynn county line, but it is understood
the man who was wounded will not
prosecute the case and no further diff
ficulty is anticipated.

LOCAL CANTON IS
BACK FROM TRIP
MEMBERS OF COMPANY SAY
THEY WERE NOT TREATED
RIGHT AT INDIANAPOLIS.

The Brunswick canton returned
Sunday afternoon from indianapolis,
Ind, where they went to enter the
big prize drill held during the meeting
Of the supreme lodge, and which oc.
CURED last Wednesday, The local
company was awarded the fourth
prize, $3.50, in class A.
While not Offering any excuse for
not having captured the first or sec
ond prize, as was generally expected
and not claiming that they outdrilled
the other companies, still the mem
bers of the local canton claim that
they were not treated right in the In
diana city, and in many ways they
drilled to disadvantage. In the first
place, they state, the drill was held
in an enclosure and while the other
companies had all the time they asked
for to practice on the drill ground, in
order to become accustomed to the
field, only once, and then for just a
snort time, dld the local company get
an opportunity to practice. This made
a great difference, as it was almost
absolutely necessary to know the drill
ground in order to carry out the drill
program as prepared.
Some members of the company
state that they realized long before
the drill that they had but little
chance of winning the first prize, and,
while they MADE an average of some
thing like 931a they only came in for
the fourth prize. The first was won
by a company from Toronto, Canada,
the second by Marion, Ind, and the
third by company from Detroit,
Mich.

TWO MEN NOW
IN JAIL HERE
WEBER AND LAWRENCE ARE
BROUGHT BACK FROM
JACKSONVILLE.
Preliminary Hearing VIII Be Held
This Afternoon-Men Claim They
Secured Automobile from an En-
ploye Who Was at the Garage.

E. Weber and Frank Lawrence,
the two Tampa men arrested in Jack
sonyille several days ago charged
with stealing an automobile in this
city which was in the custody of
Sheriff Berrie, and who refused to re-
turn to this city until requisitfon pap
ers could be secured, are now occupy
ing cell in the Glynn county Jail,
and today they will be given pre-
liminary hearing before Justice Lam
bright on the charge of robbery, ana
it is expected that the hearing will be
interesting.
The two men We're brought to the
city Sunday by Deputy Sheriff Owens,
Who went to Tallahassee with the re-
QUESTION papers, and after getting the
signature Of Florida's chief executive
to them, returned to Jacksonville and
presented the papers to the sheriff at
Jacksonville and the two men were
turned over to the local officer.
Webber and Lawrence discussed the
case yesterday for the first time and
both OF them claim that they had no
intention Of stealing the automobile
which was the property of woman
in Tampa and who had sent them
here for it. They both claim that tne
charge that they broke into the garage
where the machine had been placed
by Sheriff Berrie and stole it is err
roneous They state that they never
| broke into the garage, but that they
paid some man connected with the
place $40 to open the garage and give
them the machine and fill it's tanks
with gasoline. They met this empIoye
at the garage early on the morning
that they left here, they say, and the
machine was turned over to them by
him.
The preliminary hearing was
scheduled for yesterday afternoon. but
was postponed on account of mes
sage received from attorneys in
jacksonville who are interested in the
case. They will probably arrive here
this morning and the hearing will oc-
cur some time during the day.

TO PROBE into
BAD SMASH-UP
FLYING TRAIN SENT THIRTEEN
OF WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
PARTY TO DOOM,

Neenah, Wis, Sept. 25-County Of
ficers today began investigation of the
killing of thirteen members of a hay
rack party that resulted from coils
ion with fast passenger train on the
Chicago and Northwestern Railroad

The eighteen survivors, eight OF
whom were unhurt and three of whom
may die of injuries, say the accident
could have been avoided, but for the
sign board.

pie on the hay rack were employed
in a woodenware factory. They had
attended wedding anniversary at the
home of Peter Hanson.
Hanson, who was driving the wagon,
escaped without injury, as did his
team. He said he heard the noise of
the train, but that the sound seemed
to be DETECTED by the billboard, so
that TIE unseen train rumbled as
though it were half mile away. The
billboard stood between the road and
the railroad.
The engineer OF the train, which
was running fifty niles an hour, said,
after he had helped remove six of the
dead persons from the pilot Of the To-
comotive, that he did not see the
wagon because of the billboard.

saved from injury as if by a miracle.

France is Stunned

Paris, Sept 25.-The news of the
explosion of the magazines of the bat
tleship Liberte came as stunning
blow to the French public and to
naval officials 1t is the climax of a
long series Of disasters which have
marked the history of the French
navy since the blowing up of the bat
tleship Jena, on March 3, 1907.
The accounts of the disaster as re-
ceived here during the morning hours
varied widely. The most authentic
dispatches stated that the sinking
came nearly two hours after the dis
covery OF the fire in the forward hold.
Another account said that the snip
broke in half from the force of the
explosions and sank twenty minutes
later. According to this version, the
battleship afterwards reappeared at
the surface for a time, a grim carcass
of iron surrounded by tangled mass
of wreckage.
Estimates Of the number of dead
vary from $50 to 500.
