HOW BURNS TRAILER
M'NAMAHA.
The dtt* Hives who aided Wlllusm
J. Buma, of Chicago, to place 'Ht
guilt, now confessed, for dynamite
outrages are given full credit by him
for the “sleuthing" which bat made
him famous. A doaen tlmea a fstav
move on their part would have spoil
ed the Intricate net be wov* sue
eeaefully, and Burns baa Insisted on
sharing the credit with hi* men.
When It wav planned to arrest Jim
McNamara end McManigle In Tole
do they sauted themselves, suitcaaea
aud all. In a railroad coach loaded
with women and children, although
their cult case contained enough dy
namite to blow everybody Into bite.
Raymond Burns, bis son, and his
men saw that a blunder might Caere
an explosion, and they coolly clung
ed the plan, waiting until they ar
rived at Detroit before making th-
arrests. When the trail had beei
picked up and men were set to fal
lowing them, they had an unseen
bodyguard night and day.
And there’s the trick that eotvc,
mest of the mysteries in these lay-
the ’tailing,”’ Burns Haid In hi:
rrailve in McCluro's Magasslna.
"It's what good palming is to
sleight of hand. It's the thing the
operative has to learn before he can
move on a case at all. He has to
learn to follow n man on the street
In railroad trains, on street cars, In
hotels, picking him up and droppin:
him and picking him up again,with
out ever really losing sght of him
and without over being Been or »us
pected himself. We kept track or
McManigle and Jim McNamara In
that way for months. Our men even
followed them on a hunting trip,
and 'roped* them as we say—mart-
friends with them and camped ann
hunted with them. McManigle hai
told us since that they never saw a
sign of any one shadowing them
And they were always testing them
selves. They would turn a coruei
and then hide and watch to see If
any one was following. They wont
go long distances on unfrequented
streets, watching bohlnd them. The;
would Jump on a street car and rid*
a while and got olt and go In nn
oilier direction In another car, and
watch all the time to aee If any our

LYNCHING MENAGE LAW.

anarchy at nil point* We can not
encourage a hundred men to disre

Individual to disregard law; wo can
not encourage law-breaking to grati

law-breaking to gratify beta or greed
or tuet. The mob spirit breeds dis

farmers of the South had had

been planted ln cotton on a good

crop had been made, they would not
have toon anything like the trouble

hare been grown at s lower coat,

WINN-JONES CO.
You hear a lot of noise, “News Paper Noise” from this one and
the other, about what great bargains they are offering. Some
claim to ba selling at “cost” soma aven claims to be selling be
low “cost”. Now lets think about this matter a little seriously
We don’t believe the average man is going to pay much atten-
tion tosuch frivolous statememts, as you all know full-well tha 1
a man can’t afford to sell goods at cost. If he sells some things
at cost you better look out, he’ll eat you up on something else.
We are not selling goods at cost, but we do sell more goods than
two of the average stores in Valdosta, and for that reason we
can sell you the same goods “For Less”. Why? Because it
don’t cost any more to sell $100,000 than it does $50,000 and
andfwe are in the $ 100.000 class, hence you can save money
at our store, and get better goods. Our goods are new, we don’t
carry over old stock from year to year. We sell it. If you are
looking for sure enough bargains, in new fresh goods, see us.
