Court Orders That No Action be Taken to Sell the Claim Is Also Subject of Discussion. LOCAL MENTION. The house at'Sterling has been sold to B. F. Mayvvood, of Milwaukee.

Sheriff J. B. McCool has returned from Glenwood where he took George Heston and placed him in the school correction. Chief of Police Sweeney has given notice to property owners to remove all rubbish from their premises vduring the next ten days or the work WiU be done by the city at the owners. Chief of Sweeney has received a letter from Dixon requesting him to.apprehend two men who are wanted in that who are believed to be headed for Freeport.

They are accused of breaking into several stores in Dixon. Officers Adam Wilkey and James Conley have returned from Aurora where they attended the sixth annual convention of the Police association of this state. Chief of Police J. J. Sweeney also attended, going from Chicago and will probably return Policemen's Convention.

The delegates to the Policeman's convention at Aurora from this city report that a sentiment to ward holding the convention in Freeport year after next was prevalent among the delegates. Almost two hundred members were present at the annual meeting in Aurora, and in 1908, the year it is proposed to hold the meeting here, it is probable that the number will have been increased to 500. Adam Wilkey, one of the delegates from this city, was appointed a member of the legislative committee, the most important committee of the association. Painter Injured. George Adamson was painfully injured yesterday afternoon while painting at the Hartman two miles northeast of the city.

In company with a companion he was standing on a scaffold about twenty feet from the''ground, and painting the upper portion of the house. One of the ropes, from which the scaffolding was suspended, broke without warning and the men were precipitated to the ground. Mr. Adam- eon fell on a paint can and fractured two ribs in his right side. Qermania Directors Liberal.

Clad shoes for Upon my return to the city from Chicago, where I attended the hearing before Judge Lanclis, of the federal, court, in the Natural Carbon By- Products company matter, I am pleased to report to the stockholders that the court.refused to order a sale of the property of the company at the present time. A full hearing was had and a large number of interested parties were present in court. The complainants contended that the court had no jurisdiction to inquire into their doings and all of the matters, leading up to the affairs of the company which brought about the necessity for a receivership. This point was raised by complainants on exceptions to the answer filed on behalf of the intervening defendants. The ruling of the court was that regardless of any limitations as to his jurisdiction over the conduct of certain parties, he would not grant relief to any one who had sought or aided or attempted to wreck tjie company, and therefore would inquire into all matters which touched the good faith or would establish the bad faith of those seeking relief in his court.

Some of the history of the company was gone into and the judge was convinced that at least some of the allegations relied on by the complainants vcould not be established and particularly when it alleged 'that Hirshman, the former chemist of the concern, had obtained an injunction against the company. On behalf of complainants it was strenuously argued that this had nothing to do with the insolvency of the company, but the court declined to accept this contention. The court considered the matter of the Hirshman claim in Mil- where the funds of. the company, due from Kiewert, were tied up with the aid of Kiewert and Durant. Inasmuch as the attorney for the receiver had already settled this matter, the court took no action the conclusion will say that I am inclined to think that if I had been, acquainted three weeks ago today with the facts of this Hirshman bill I would not have Inconvenienced you gentlemen to come here today.

I do not like of this bill of complaint. Let an order be drawn restraining Siecke and Schauer from parting with or disposing of these notes or bonds or the two hundred thousand shares of stock until the further decree of the court." Thereafter a restraining order was issued in accordance with the foregoing, and the affairs of the company remain in the hands of a receiver, and the property of the company within the protection of the court. In connection with the many petitions received, David S. Geer, attorney for the defendants writes as follows: "I wish to express to all those who sent their petitions to me through you, my gratitude for their confidence, and acknowledge the assistance such an expression from the stockholders was in this trying situation. "At the close of the trial today, Judge Landis entered an order on my motion, as per inclosed.

This I think, puts a quietus on the case and leaves parties who are disposed to act honestly in control of the situation." I also received a wire while in Chicago from Mr. Jeffers stating his ity to carry out his promises to the stockholders depended on the outcome of these proceedings and means that every bona fide stockholder will share in any benefits that may accrue to him and friends in the purchase of the plant. Since my return I have received more certificates signed, some without notary public seal for various reasons. However, all of them are in full sympathy'with the cause and glad for the opportunity to express themselves by return of the petitions to show their appreciation of the efforts being made; therefore, any further evidences of this kind will be welcomely received as it will show materially the sentiment of the stockholders and contribute in part to the cause that seems right and destined to win out. A.

BAUMGARTEN. Order of (ho Court. This cause coming on to be heard on motion of defendant and by agreement of solicitors for respective parties, it is ordered that F. W. Siecke and Michael Schauer be and they and each of them are hereby restrained and enjoined from parting with, selling or assigning or any certain forty bonds of the Natural Carbon By-Products company, or certain notes of said company for the sum of $40,000, or certain 200,000 shares of stock of said company until the further order of this court.

BLUFF. Criticism of Freeporl High School in Regard to Athletic Affairs Is Resented. Tn reply to an Article appearing In this morning's Issue of the Rockford Star, in which the local high school baseball team and athletic management is severely "roasted" for alleged unfaithfulness In regard to'the holding of contracts made with the Rockford school, the local athletic management declares that the allegations are untrue and that Rockford has no proof to substantiate her statements. i The article In question was as folIdWs: "Freeport high school is to receive a bill for the expenses Incurred relative to; the game of baseball which was not played Tuesday because the Pretzel City boys did not show up. Rockford high school went to considerable expense in having posters and tickets printed and in renting the pa'vfc and as the non-appearance of the' others was in no way their fault it does not seem that the burden should rest upon them.

"In fact, Freeport was called up by telephone Monday afternoon and positive assurance was given that the nine wo.tiId be on hand. Moreover a signed contract was made for the game. "Whether the bill will be honored by Freeport is another question, but it certainly will be presented. Speculation is rife as to why Principal Fill- wider refused to let his team come, but no satisfactory guess is forthcoming. Besides the ball game, and the dual track meet which was to have been held next Tuesday, Freeport has proven disappointing in regard to the track meet in which several high schools were to have taken part and the oratorical contest planned in connection.

This fell through because it was neglected to secure the Freeport ball park in time." Harvey Hartman, manager of the baseball team, admits that a contract for the game was made with Rockford, but that Freeport did not prepare for the exhibition on account of a misunderstanding in the date. He telephoned to Rockford on Monday and cancelled the game, which is an altogether different story from the one Rockford advances. The game was to have taken place Tuesday afternoon but the local athletes had made the arrangements without the knowledge of Prof. Fulwider. Mr.

Fulwider stated this morning that at the beginning of the present season a contract had been made which forbids Freeport to participate in any event outside this city on a school day and that Rockford was aware of this fact. In regard to the dual track meet which the Forest City school declares was entered into by Freeport the local boys assert that no contract had been made and that Freeport had not the slightest intention of participating.

F. O. this office. With the assistance of Umpire Cross, coupled with the long, hard drives made by the Green Bay ers in the fourth inning, yesterday's game was losb by Freeport by a score of 4 to 8. Luck was against the locals throughout the game and at no turn could they getaway from it.

"Eddie" Reed, who is considered the hardest and surest hitter on the team, was unable to get a ball outside the infield and as a consequence did not make a bit, whereas he usually makes at least two. Yesterday he was only able to poke out one little sacrifice, which did its work, but there wasn't eiiough'of it, but through no fault of "Eddie" for he did his level best. There is not a team on the globe, amateur or professional, that can win against an umpire when he makes decisions like Cross did yesterday, not only for, but against Freeport, and made them repeatedly. There is an advantage in a back lot game for there an umpire can be licked once in a while, but in a league it means suspension for a player and it's a lucky thing for Mr. Cross that such is the case.

But for the terrible decision in the. seventh, Sullivan would have scored and tied the score. On long hit into left field Sullivan came around the bases like a whirlwind and on nearing home plate be was forced to slide and did so, going under Conners, reaching the place safely, for he was not even bub this Cross couldn't see at all and called him Again when War hop led off of first base he was caught without a doubt, but was called safe and this happened time and again all through the game.

Coffee Hurts One in Three It is difficult to make people believe that coffee is an absolute poison to at least one person out of every three, but people are slowly finding it out, although thousands of them suffer terribly before they discover the fact. A New York hotel man says: "Each time after drinking coffee I became restless, nervous and excited, so that I was unable to sit five minutes in one place, was also inclined to vomit and suffered from loss of sleep, which gob worse and worse. "A lady said that perhaps coffee was the cause of my trouble and suggested that I try Postum Food Coffee.

I laughed at the thought thab coiffie hurt me, bub she insisted so hard that I finally had some Postum made. I have been using it ill place of coffee ever since, for I noticed thab all my former nervousness and irritation disappeared. 1 began to sleep perfectly, and the Postum tasted as good or better than the old coffee, so what was the use of sticking to a beverage that was ruining me? "One day on an excursion up the country 1 remarked to a young lady friend on her greatly improved appearance, she explained that some time before she had quit using coffee and taken Postum. She had gained a number of pounds and her former palpitation of the heart, humming in the ears, trembling of the bfcnds and legs aud other disagreeable feelings had disappeared. She recommended me bo quit coffee $nd fake Postum and was very much surprised to find that I had already made the change.

"She said her brother had also received great benefits from leaving off coffee and taking on Postuna Food Coffee." "There's a reason," Read the JOURNAL'S want column. But two of the errors made by the locals were at all costly, the one most so was Reed's in the third when he fumbled Kerwin's hit which came to him on the bound and allowed Tenant to score. The other was made in the second and passed from first to second, but this was not as bad, for the runner was put out while attempting to reach home. The other error was made by Moriarity in the first and passed" Book- ens to first, he could have easily been put out if the ball had been properly handled. It is unusual for Reed to make an error, and when he makes two in a game and does not make a hit, it is nearly a cinch that he has a day off.

Everyone has these and it may not be his misfortune again this season. Not until the second inning was there anything of interest happening. The visitors had the first chance at the bat and made two hits, Kerwin getting as far around as to try for home plate, but was caught and they were unable to score, although it looked pretty risky for the locals. In the half Reed led off and went out on a foul fly to Conners. Sullivan reached first on a hit and succeeded in stealing second.

Erickson was put out by Tenant unassisted, the ball having been knocked down the first base line, and on this Sullivan went to third from where he was scored on a hit by Easton, Thenjthe little fellow from centerfvfleld made his appearance and gave Pitcher Bubser cause to remember making a two- bagger, which advanced Easton to third. When Moriarity came to bat it looked as if another run would be made, but his drive which went but a few feet from tha fence in center field, was grabbed up by Du- Chein in fine shape and the side retired, leaving Easton at third and Ives at second. The third inning waa where the visitors broke all of their former records by making four hits aud four runs, three of them being earned. The start was made by Bubser, but that was all he did, for he was an easy out at first, and was followed in the same manner by DuChein. Two men being out must have given Easton a wrong impression, for he let up on the curves a little and allowed McCauley a dandy two-bag- ger.

Moriariby made a clever stop of Bubser's line drive in the third and easily shub him off at firsb. The firsb ball bo go bhrough the fence in some time was on McCauley's hib into left field yesterday in the bhird inning. Through a privabe source we have jusblearned that three relabives of Umpire Cross' are. with the Green Bay team, two cousins and a brother. The latter is supposed to be a man called Bubser.

A very commendable thing about Umpire Cross is when he makes a decision he sticks to it. To prove this he pulled his watch on Fredrickson when he attempted bo raise a fuss in bhe seventh." Double plays seemed bo be bhe order of bhe day for Freeporb players. While Eason was nob successful in striking oub bhe visitors he certainly made up for ib in base running and hitbing.

RJley Wheat. 5-lOdlw J- Umbrellas repaired'and recovered. S. 87 street, 4-94tf NOVEL CAMPAIGN KAT6D BY THE LEAVEN WORTH POST, How the Nimble "Post Dollar" Has Increased the Business of the Town. Advertising Instead of Editorial Columns Used With Good Methods Which Have Brought Success.

A scheme by business in a town can be increased and the community benefited has been- started in Leavehworth, a town twenty- five miles from Kansas City, with which It is connected by a trolley line. The merchants of Leavenworth are constantly complaining 'that people spend their money out of town. Several months ago the Leavenworth Post started a campaign in advocacy of home trade which is bringing results highly satisfactory to the paper and business men. This campaign has been conducted along unusual lines, the Post using its advertising instead of its editorial columns to convince the people that they ought to spend their money at home, where they earn it. The follow Ing, displayed in space of four columns wide by eight inches, is a sample of the advertisements: DO UNTO OTHERS As You Would Have Others Do Unto You." It you sell groceries to Mr.

Smith, it Is only natural that Mr. Smith should expect you to buy meat in his shop. Isn't that perfectly fair? Well, then, If you earn your living In Leavenworth, is it unfair to expect you id spend what you can of it here? Many of those who do their shopping of town do so thoughtlessly. If your brother sells furniture you woudn't go into it Kansas City store to buy a chair Just because It looked pretty and cheap in the show window, would you? Wouldn't you say to yourself: "My brother can get me that chair just as cheap. I couldn't think of getting It from any one else." IE you have to live and earn a livelihood In Leavenworth, every other person who Is similarly situated is your brother.

He can get it for you just as cheap, no matter what it is. REMEMBER THIS! The effect on merchants of using the advertising columns of the paper Cor this purpose has "been gratifying, tt demonstrates to them that the publisher himself believes that people read the advertising columns of his paper. 'The comment they hear on these ads. convinces them that the publisher is right in his belief. The most original feature of the scheme, however, is the "Post dollar," described in the following taken from paper of Feb.

8: WATCH FOR POST DOLLAR. To Prove Post's Trade at Home Theory. Started Qut This Afternoon. If This Dollar Is Kept in Leavenworth It Will Pay Many a -Little Bill- Already at a Premium. This afternoon a bright silver dollar with several red shipping tags attached started from the office of the Post on a nost interesting and Instructive journey through the business channels of Leavenworth.

The dollar is a genuine of Uncle Sam's coins and has a small silver ring soldered to the rim of It. To this ring the tags are attached. following Is printed on the face of the first tag: THIS DOLLAR started from the office of the Leavenworth Post, Pet). 1906, on a journey objept of which Is to demonstrate hat a dollar spent at home will return the original spender eventually to be: paid out again, while a dollar spent out of town rarely, if ever, Hnds Its way jack through the channels of trade to ts starting point. When this dollar comes Into your possession, please write your name and the date and hour of day when received on the first vacant ruled line on the ittaohert cards.

Then spend the dollar, jut be sure not to spend it with some one who trades out of town or with some one who is liable to "salt It lown." Keep it circulating. The mission of this dollar is a'worthy and every one who gets it In his possessiqn should assist, in proving the id vantage of tfading at home by care- "ully following the instructions on this dollar has not been de- 'nccfl or altered in any by the at- aphment of the silver ring and is worth 100 cents at any, bank or at the office the Leavenworth Post. PUSH IT ALONG! the tags becoine filled vlth names, please bring them to the Post and have new tags issued to re- plnco them. The rest of the tags are ruled off into spaces for names and dates, and it Is expected that when all the cards are 'utl they will be returned to the Post or replenishing. The dollar was paid out to Ira Bacon, in 'employe of the Post, and he 1 spent It it once with T.

T. Reyburn. It is generally conceded that Mr. Reyburn will not let It tarnish on his hands, and nerchants can be on the lookout for it omorrow. Several enterprising merchants, hear- ng of the unique journey of this dol- ar, have made some tempting offers hrough the columns of the Post to- Tight to get the dollar into possession.

For instance, Mr. Engle offers allow for It when Is tendered payment on any suit of clothes or overcoat. Woolfe Wlnnlg will consider the dollar as $2 every time it is presented as part payment on any bill of goods amounting to $10. The Magnet ilso calls attention to the fact that he dollar will buy $1.05 worth of dry roods at that store and that any other lollar will get the same value Just now. The Post is going to keep track of he dollar In its interesting travels, and the readers of the Post should keep posted on Its whereabouts.

Mr. Ditzell ilso offers to allow credit of $10 on he purchase price of any piano in his stock whenever this dollar Is presented him. If you get hold of the dollar, vou see, you can make it double Itself. Watch for it. The Post also publishes the fo'llow- ng words of caution: Remember, it's goodby dollar when you spend it oxit of town.

Put a scratch on that dollar; spend It at home, and you will get it back again Why is a dol- ar spent out of town just like an hour jf your life? you can't possi- ly get it back once it's gone. The publishers say of the "Post dollar:" The Post dollar sctieme is the biggest id. this paper bus ever had, and there no limit to the side schemes it makes jossible. Every one is talking about it. ind iTKMVhaius are offering premiums orcU'r to have it go through their stores.
