Brought here this morning from Id, Boston, his only the way from en lNew Hampshire, he was looked at- I up in the prison from which he ish was transferred almost seven b 3ol years ago to the state asylum for IF ge the criminal insane at Matteawan, t. os. after his acquittal of the murder n at of Stanford White on the ground a id of insanity. li d To -mnorrow it is expected, Thaw d, n- will be arraigned to plead to the S ale indictment charging conspiracy, de ss based on his sensational escape hi n; from Matteawan seventeen . Is months ago. d When the train drew into tihe 'd station Thaw greeted the news. n. paper men generally but refused to to discuss his plans. William ,r Travers Jerome, special counsel for the state and Deputy Attorney SCeneral Kennedy arrived on the same train. Thaw and his guard went to a 'hotel for breakfast, and then the prisoner was taken to the Tombs, where he'was assigned a cell on Lt the second tier. Later he at 1- tended religious services in the e prison chapel. o Efforts by Thaw's counsel to I, see their client were fruitless. d They were told that if they wish e ed to consult with him they must e get an order from a supreme t court justice. Abel I; Smith, t one of Thaw's attorneys, said to f night: a "Even though bail should be t fixed for Thaw, it is possible we r will make no effort to furnish it. t The case has been left entirely in a the hands of his attorneys, John ) B. Stanchfield, M. J. O'Brien and myself. Just what our next step will be we have not decided.' Thaw's mother who is in this city refused to say anything re garding he son's case and Jerorn me and Kennedy likewise declined to discuss the matter.

More than ever before known in washington Parish. There is a perceptible move in the direction of stock raising. Our climate, soil and natural advantages, generally, being so suitable for rhis line of industry there is no reason why it could not bede done er profitably. Our farmers will be shipping hogs and cattle, of their own raising, in car load lots. The boll-weevil storm has passed over and the wreckage is about cleared away. The train of prosperity is just beginning "to speed up." Now is the time to engage your passage. Now is the time to invest in improved farm properties, and cut over land before the land goes too high. The Union Bank in liquidation is in possession of several farm properties and approximately four thousand acres of cut-over land in diffrent parts of the Parish. The Farmers & Merchants Bank Build ing, the Bank of Franklinton Building, the Peoples Drug Store Building (Doremus property), two ideal business lots, several residence lots and eight improved residence properties. Tahese properties are being offered at very raasonable prices. The Franklinton properties are all good rent propositions. T THEY MUST GO t,.Ask for prices and termes Union Bank In Liquidation J. S.
