Valdosta, ga., batdiidat, SEnrainER u, 101a., PAGE THREA French Market Coffee Has Never Been Successfully Imitated It Cannot Be C OFFEE roasted the ordinary way is only partially roasted, according to French ideals. The French Market Coffee way is the scientific way, producing a perfect roast. Slowly—carefully—the roasting goes on until exactly the right moment arrives. The slow roast reduces about 10 per cent more weight than the ordinary roast. All excess of oil vanishes. Vet the delicate flavor and aroma is there, intensified and en hanced. Chilled, Ground and Hermetically Sealed D IRECT from the roasters, the coffee is chilled in a cold-air-blast machine. This chilling closes the pores of the bean, thus preventing a single breath of the entrancing aroma to escape in the vapors. Quickly—by automatic machinery—this freshly roasted, freshly ground, freshly chilled, delicious coffee is placed in tin cans, and hermetically sealed. So it comes to your table as perfect as when it left the roasters—untouched by human hands. Famous for Over a Hundred Years E VEN when French Market Coffee could bo had only in the old French Market at New Orleans, over a hundred years ago, it was celebrated all over the South. Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay and other fa mous men of olden times visited the French Market to enjoy the rarely delicious beverage. But now you all may serve it daily on your own table. For the rare old French blend has been per petuated by the French Market Mills, and the hermetically-sealed process places genuine French Market Coffee within the reach of all. For Sale at Your Grocer’s Try it once and you’ll agree “There is only one real old French Market flavor." The coffee with a history. FRENCH MARKET MILLS (New Orleans Coffee Co., Ltd., Proprietors) NEW ORLEANS FIVE CONVICTS MADE ESCAPE LAST NIGHT They Broke Out of the Cage at Troupeville. ONE OP THE BUNCH WAS CAP TURED AS HE STEPPED FROM TRAIN AT THOMASVILLE A FEW HOURS LATER. SPARROWS ARE DECLARED TO BE The Little Pests Ought to be Exterminated GOVERNMENT REPORT LOOKED UPON AS AN INVITATION FOR EVERYBODY TO TAKE UP ARMS AGAINST THE BIRD. “Mr. English Sparrow haying been duly tried and found guilty of being a pest, an undesirable and a general nuisance, Unci© Sam respectfully in vites all good citizens of these Uni ted States to abolish him,” says"* writer In Farm and Fireside. "All persons who are Interested in swatting the fly or exterminating the mosquito are Invited to give a band and chase from this land the little brown bird, wrfose dynasty has ex tended over a period of sixty years. You can trap him, shoot him, poison him; In fact, there’s a lot of thing* you can do to him, and in tho opin ion of the United States department of agriculture, you will be doing the country a good sized favor. "The bill of complaint against Mr. Sparrow, by Ned Dearborn, an ex-1 pert in the United Statea biological survey, sets forth that he Is 'cun ning, destructive and filthy.' He feeds In winter on waste material, and m summer switches his diet to weed seeds and insects. About the only ex tenuating circumstance advanced in his favor is that he sometimes—but very seldom—flies out to the country district© where alfalfa grows and does a little good service by prey ing on the alfalfa weevil. But most of the time he feeds on Insects which play a useful part in agricultural ser vice. "Also he i» guilty of destroying fruit, such as cherries, grapes, pears and peaches. He gobbles up buds and flower* of cultivated shrubs, trees and vines. He causes havoc In gardens by • nibbling at the peas and lettuce. H© Is destructive to wheat and other grains. Some Idea of th© extent of his depredations is gained by th© statement that a flock of fifty of his fellows requires dally the equival ent of a quart of grain. Hence the annual loss throughout the country mounts up to a large total. "Furthermore, he is a pirate and a disturber of the bird world. He preys on some of our most useful and at tractive birds, among the number be ing the bluebirds, house wrens, pur ple martins, tree swallows, cliffs swal lows, barn swallows, the wrens and mocking birds." BRIDGE MAN WAS FIRED. A New Man Readied the City This Morning and Took his Place. (From Wednesday’s Dally.) Bridge Constructor Cummings, who was sent here 'by the iron bridges manufacturers, to superintend the work of erecting the iron bridge across Little River at Troupeville, got in bad with Chairman Coffee, of the county commissioners yesterday, so a new man reached the city this morning to take hie place. ..... During the slight drizzly rain yes terday morning Chairman Coffee went out to eee how the work was getting on and he found all hands Idle, <dgbt or ten convicts and other laborers doing nothing, while the expenses were climbing up and peo ple on both sides of the river were begging for iim bridge to be finish ed. Chairman Coffee got after the bridge constructor and the bridge man told the chairman that he would not work during the rain. Some oth er words were passed between them and the bridge man finally told the chairman that he was not working for him or Lowndes county, but was working for the bridge company. Chairman Coffe 0 came (back to the city and wired the bridge manufac turers In Atlanta to send a man to take his place. In a half an hour a reply came that a man would be hero this morning. This morning Chairman Coffee met the Georgia Southern and Florida train and found tho new man there. His name is Foster and he was im mediately carried out to Troupe ville and put In chaTge of the work. The Inclement weather has caused the river to rise some and it will probably delay the work, but with good weather the work could be com pleted in a v*ry few days. The new man seems to be very obliging and the chairman of the county commissioners thinks that he' is much more competent than the other man was. % Ladles’ hand bags, book holders, picture frames, music rolls, wallets, bill folders, card cases, cigar coses, cigarette cases, all made of genuine Cordovan leather—"the finest things ever built in leather goods'*—on dis play at Mackey’s.

Correspondence solicited LOCAL COTTON BUYERS FOR THIS SEASON Two Strong New Firms are in the ^ield A LARGE FIRM FROM SAVANNAH WILL HAVE AGENTS HERE— MU. WETHERS ALSO OPENS A OFFICE HERE. (From Tuesday's Dally.) For the past four or flv® years, and In fact for the paat twenty-live years, Valdosta has been the leading sea Island cotton market of the South. This city has had the strongest buy ers to bo found either In Georgia or Florida. The city has Increased its advantages along this line during the past four or five years when new firms have entered the field, j The comJng season will find Val dosta much stronger as a sea island cotton market than it has ever been before. There will be at least two new buyers In the field and both of them are buying for export and are recognized as the leader* In that line. Cannon and Ingiesby, of Savannah, *iave a buyer here who will be active ly in the market and will be a com petitor for all the cotton brought here. Mr. T. H. Wethers haa several large connections and has already opened an office In the Strickland building. He proposes to be in the field and will make the other buyers come up tight on all of the cotton brought here. Bevrides these new buyers all of the old buyers will be In the market again this year. They are B. F. Strickland and Company, A. J. Strickland, Jones and Dasher, Ray and Smith, Barton and Powell, and L. W. Shaw. With an array of buyers like this In the market there Is no reason why Valdosta should not establish & high er record as a cotton market. The receipts here this year ought to be larger than ever before and the trade of the city ought to be correspond ingly largo.

Five negro convicts who were at work with the bridgo gang near Troupvllle made their escape ia»t night by prizing open a bar to the cage after getting loose from the trap which they wore tried to In tho enges. Superintendent Taylor was not with the gang last night, having gone home to spend the night. It was Just tho kind of night that convicts try to make their escape. There was an al most continuous rain, which drowned out any noise that they might have made In their efforts to get out. The train also added to the darkness of the night and mad© It difficult to de tect them. { The five negroes who escaped were Lee Newberry, a negro who has es caped before, but wbo came back and ,gave hlmwelf up after being absent jor three months.
