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 got on or olt after them.” ALIMMTA TIM Kb VALDOSTA, ILL, SATURDAY, DECEMBER », Mil, that, will a an account polltan Senator that when Iowa he and helped ol a form It seem* to that gave took the lb It'en.

Because lynching meant contempt for law, means contempt for our courts of justice, it means danger for every cltlsen end should be ab horred by every cltlsen. To protect anarchy at one point Is to spread anarchy at nil point* We can not encourage a hundred men to disre gard law without encouraging th* Individual to disregard law; wo can not encourage law-breaking to grati fy vengeance without encouraging law-breaking to gratify beta or greed or tuet.

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. WINN-JONES CO. P.S.
