BUY 40 ACRES
 FOR FAIR SITE
North Of City On Jacksonport Road And Purchase Lumber
 For Buildings. -

While the dates have not been fixed, Jackson county will have a fair this year and all arrange ments are being made by the di- rectors of the Jackson County Fair Association to pull off the big event in October and put it on basis that will insure an annual fair hereafter.
 The association has conclud- ed to purchase forty acres of the Morris tract just north of the city and the Rock Island track immediately alongside the newly proposed Jacksonport road.
 The soil is of such nature as to make splendid track, work upon which will be begun as soon as a sufficient rain falls to put the ground in the right con- dition. The site has cost the Fair Association $2,0O0 but this is thought to be far better than leasing site even though the association funds are low.
 At a meeting of the directors Wednesday, the purchase of co., 900 feet of cypress lumber from Marvin Hare was confirmed and the latter is rushing the order. This stock is to be used in a fence 8 feet high about the en- tire 40 acres and the building of stables for the horses.
 The grand stand and exhibit hall are also to be constructed at once and will be stained to make them attractive. The grounds are being cleaned and prepared for the construction work, which is to be rushed as soon as the lumber is available.
 A catalogue will be issued la- ter and prizes are to be given for agricultural and horticultur- al exhibits and the best show ings of all kinds of stock and poultry, as we'll as some good l,purses for trotting, pacing and running races.
 An annual fair for Jackson county is entitled to your SUD- port and you ought to be a stock holder. It is for the upbuilding of the county in many ways and the success of the first years fair will have much to do with it's permanency.

President Determined To Stand Pat In Placing Warburg and
 Jones On Reserve Board.
United Press Dispatch.

Washington, D. C., July 9.-- Paul Warburg, the New York banker, has finally agreed to the presidents urgent request to permit his nomination to the Federal Reserve Board to stand. It was then announced that the administration would stand pat upon the nominations of War burg of New York and Thomas Jones of Chicago.
 The president conferred with Senators Shaffroth and Thomas and told them that even though the senate committee reports unfavorably upon these nomina- tions, he was convinced that he could secure their confirmation. Warburg will not appear before the senate committee under any circumstances according to White House information.
 The White House has let it be known that the president will fight to force the confirmation Iof these two men, whom the president considers purely per- sonal appointments selected for reasons of peculiar fitness. An endorsement of Warburg is not to be questioned by the senate committee on banking.

Now Mission Ford was a sore spot
with Captain Boyce, and his friends
never mentioned the name. At Mis-

had there been a worse rout, with a
capture of one-half a regiment at the
end of it.
"Gave it to us at Mission Ford, did
they?" repeated the fiery SoutheTner

and tabooed Mrs. Ball in her social

Then there came up a discussion in
the local newspaper over some pro-

opposed it and the bitterness grew.

Won't Interfere with Ship
ments Even to G rmafy

Washington, Oct. 26.-Sir Edward
Grey, British minister for foreign al
fairs, has assured the United states
through Ambassador Page at London
that England will not interfere with
American cotton shipments as con
traband of war" This was announced
at the state department.
This attitude of the British govern
ment will permit the safe movement
of American cotton to any point, IN
Guiding Germany, where a market
may be found.
Moreover, Sir Edward Grey'st state
ment is construed in some quarters
as meaning that there is to ibe no
interference with any non-contfaband
cargoes from neutral country car
ried in neutral ships, even when con-
signed directly to a belligerent.
The British statement as to icotton
forestalled action by the state de-
partment upon a request made by
senators from southern states that
the belligerent countries be asked to
give assurances that shipments Of
cotton from the United States 10 neu-
trail or belligerent countries WOULD not
be seized or detained.
A fair market for cotton is said to
exist in Germany, though most OF tho
mills in England and France are now

U. S. COTTON .SA5l}n CONGRESS ADJouRNs
;B BR''t EER !2He SESSION
End Came When Cotton FIJI
buster Collapsed

Washington, Oct. 26.-After nearly
nineteen months of continuous session
since the Inauguration of Woodrow
Wilson, the Sixty-third congress ad-
iourned its second session after col
lapse of prolonged efforts to procure
cotton growers relief legislation.
Leaders in this movement agreed
to adjourn, however, only on the con-
dition that pending cotton relief meas
ures would have right of way in the
house when congress reconvenes on
Dec. Z.
Not more than fifty members of the
house and less than a quorum of the
senate were in attendance when the
gavels fell on adjournment without
day. The end was accomplished by
the passage of a concurrent resolution
ending the session.
In announcing the abandonment of
their filibuster for cotton legislation,
following a conference, Senator Hoke
Smith, of Georgia, and Representa-
tive Henry, of Texas, told the senate
and house it was apparent that no
quorum could be procured for consid-
Grafton of cotton legislation at this
time, and that further filibustering
might injure chances of ultimate sue
cess. Representative Henry expressed
his conviction that congress would be
convened in extraordinary session by
the middle Of November, when the
fight could be resumed. Senator Smith
introduced a bill for a $250,000, 900
government bond issue to buy cotton.
The house adopted a resolution
authorizing the appointment of COM
mittee to investigate cotton conditions
in the south and to report possible
measures for federal aid by Dec. Is.

SECOND TRIAL UNCERTAIN
Defendant Returned to Jail Com
pIeteIy Crushed, May Be Admitted
to Bail.

Mineola, L. l., Oct. 26.-Because two
of it's number insisted that Mrs. FLOR
ence C. Carman had murdered Mrs.
Louise E. Bailey in Freeport last July,
while ten others declared she was
suiltless of that crime, the jury IN
the murder trial, after having been
out fourteen hours, was discharged by
Justice Kelby.
Five ballots were taken, the first
being nine to three for acqulttal. Al
ter that but two remained steadfast IN
their belief that Mrs. Carman was
guilty.
Mrs. Carman was carried back to
the county Jail completely crushed
She will be admitted to bail, District
Attorney Smith consenting to it, but
whether she will be tried again MI
Smith refuses to state.
1t was a terrible ordeal that Mrs
Carman underwent. She plainly show
ed the suffering she had experienced
when she came into court after the
Jury had sent word that it wished to
consult with Justice Kelby. For hours
she had been in nervous collapse
and and as eyil kept Up through drink
ing strong black coffee.
That the failure to acquit Mrs. Car
man was unpopular was shown by the
cool reception given to the two jurors
who had voted for her conviction
They were William G. Hovey, OF
Woodmere, and James H. Aston, OF
Port Washington.
They hurried from the court room,
and deputy sheriffs surrounded them
to prevent any hostile demonstrations
toward them. But the other ten Jur'
ors were given a rousing demonstra
ton by the hundreds who congregated
outside the court room.
The crowd insisted upon making
heroes of them, and when the fore
man, Robert F. Ludlum, Of Oyster
Bay, appeared, he made speech and
said that he and the other nine men
had tried to do their duty. He was
cheered, and the throng insisted upon
escorting him to the railroad station,
cheering him on the way.
1t was hllOWH WHeu Inc Jul y CulSl

night of bitter wrangling, so loud that
the discussion could be plainly heard
outside the court house-that it had
disagreed. Hundreds had fought thei'
way into the court room, having re-

many more clamored for admission,
only to be denied.
Mrs. Carman broke down complete
ly when she was told she would have
to spend at least another day in the
cell in the Jail. She tried to regain
her composure, but it was impossible,
and she fell over into the arms Of her
sister, Mrs. Powell. DR.. Carman was
so beside himself with disappointment
that he vacantly watched his wife be-
ing carried from the court room. He
muttered over ad over again:

His accents already merging in with

Grasping small brass handle
affixed to the wheel box, he jerked 1t
sharply three times, and the automatic
horn blared raucously a threefold re-
Spouse up forward.
Keep that going" he begged,
three blasts in a row and minute
interval-and if the devil takes care
Of his own we may possibly escape be-
ing run down"
With sigh, relinquishing the wheel,
he collapsed upon the deck and was
almost instantly asleep
The wind had fallen until barely
enough air stirred to keep way On the
vessel; she moved in silence, a spec
trail ship upon a spectral sea Of long,
oily swells and the complexion Of lead.
Hitler and yon in the obscurity, fog
signals Of other shipping sounded a
concert of discordance-the man,
power horn of catboat crying the
warning back to the deep-throated
whistle of a coastwise steamship and
the impairment drumming of motor
boats exhaust with the muller cut
out.
This last boxed the compass, sound
ing now near, now far, though the COM
plants of other shipping diminished
in volume and died away in the dis
lance, giving place to others still, the
plutter-plutter of that motor was never
altogether lost; if at times it faded.
1t seemed certain always to return In
even louder volume.
Vainly straining his vision against
the blank pallor of the encompassing
fog, Alan wondered, worried, dreaded!
At irregular intervals, starting
from preoccupation, he would manipu-
late the brass pull on the wheel-box,
provoking the horns suffering blasts
Of protest. But the need for unremit-
ting vigilance and exercise of the fog
signal failed none the less to reconcile
Alan to that blatant clamor which SO
widely and SO hideously advertised
their whereabouts.
If there were anything still to be
feared from Judith and her crew-if,
for instance, as Barcus had suggested,
they had sought out one of the life
saving stations on Nauset beach, ap-
propriated its power-driven lifeboat
| and renewed the pursuit, IL ever they
heard that horn there would beyond
question be the devil to pay!
The loneliness of his vigil was even
tually relieved by the appearance on
deck of the woman Alan loved.
The tableau that greeted her vision -
she emerged from the companionway,
of the haggard, unshayen wretch at
the wheel and the other who lay at his
feet, where he had fallen, in a stup0r
of fatigue, instantly wrung from Rose
a little cry of solicitude. And she was
quick to do what little she could to
alleviate their discomfort. For Barcus
she fetched a pillow and blanket from
the cabin, and this one suffered her
ministrations without once rousing
from his slumbers. Then Fastening
forward, she got the galley fire going
and prepared a makeshift breakfast
for her half-famished lover.
