dence property and will be offered for
sale for that purpose.
That portion of this section, IS acres

sites and more valuable for that pur-
nose as it nears the mountain foot.
Purchasers who buy in this part of the
addition may be assured that no manu-
featuring enterprises will go up or To-

Cotton addition is one of the most ex-
+ensive areas ever opened and handled

handy. These cOnveniences are already
there waiting to be utilized by the
builders all over the section.
This is true of all the property OF the
addition except the Sc acres north Of
the 2. P. & S. ". railroad, which viii
be the next section thrown open. The
sales agents announce that they will
expend a large mum Of money imme-
diately upon placing this on the mar
ket, the expenditure to go for build
ing streets and making other improve
ments looking toward fitting the sec
ton for the building of homes.
Schools and Churches.
Another and a most important fact
that adds to the value of Cotton addi-
ton as a home section is that there is a
splendidly appointed school building
conveniently located. Lamar school. on
Montana street. is one of the best ap-
pointed buildings in FL PasO and is
within easy distance of any part of the
north end of the addition. 1t is not

Executor Coming Here.
Executor Walter Grant has an
nounced to A. P Coles & Bros, his
sales agents here, that he viii come
to FL Paso in the near future to confer
with them regarding the further sale
of property in the Cotton addition and
the opening up Of the northern section.
It is probable that Mr.. Grant will bring
with him some new ideas in plating
and improving the property.
The rapid growth of Cotton addition
is a monument to the hnStling ability
of A. p Coles & Bros, who are and
have always been among the real
builders OF growing FL Paso.

Where Deely Got His
Money to Buy Co0ent
Garden, uzzLes London

London, Eng, Jan. ia strange
mystery seems to envelop the person
atty Of Mallaby Deely, member OF par
lament, the purchaser Of the famous
London property OF the duke Of Red
ford, in and around COvent garden
No one appears TO know anyJnlng
about his wealth. It's source or whether
in the present instance he IS acting
for himself alone or In conjunction
with others. 1t is only IN a country
like England where so little curiosity
Is displayed even about men VINO APP
parently command millions that such
state Of affairs is possible. Although
the papers are flooded with articles
on everything he is known to have
done, not one OF them contains any
thing of positive nature concerning
what everyone is dying to know, name
ly, whence comes his apparent COM
mand of fabulous wealth.
A man who can make the biggest
deal as between two individuals on
record is certainly worth some trouble
to locate in the financial world. Mall
his story away to the first bidder and
it is not particularly likely that his
brother. Frank CurZOn. the theatrical
manager, viii be the next best man
from whom 20 learn the story. Alto
gether he has laid out the estimated
sum Of $4,000, 900. and yet until this
last deal was announced, his name
was almost unknown TO the man in the
street.
Another strange phase OF the affair
is GIallaby Deely's object in buylng so
costly an estate when. accordlng TO
his own statement he has no Interior
object. He does not want to pull down
anything that exists. The property
was purchased merely as an invest
ment.

YALE'S BALL SCHEDULE.
Only Twenty-six Games This Year
For New Haven Tossers.

For New Haven Tossers.
Yale is already looking forward to
the baseball season. along with the an
nouncement by Manager Bacon Of the
schedule for the team for next season.
The schedule is to be considerably
shorter and will get the team into ac
ton later than was the case last year.
In framing the schedule the Giants
have been left off the list. SO that New
York. fans will not have chance the
coming season TO see the National
league champions tackle the sons of
Eli. This game has been fixture in
past years, and the change that has
been made this time is due, it Is under
stood, to the fact that the Yale squad
will not start on its southern trip until
about the time that the Giants will be
opening their season.
Twenty-six games will be played by
Yale, four less than the team engaged
in last season The first game will be
with the Norfolk baseball club ut Nor
folk on April Q, the first day after the
team gets away from New Haven. The
team will also play Mount St Joseph
college and the University of Virginia
at Norfolk.

for May 30 and June IL, and in ease Of
