THIRD EDITION,


DUBLIN, Dec. 10.-O'Donnell's wife
arrived here to-day. She heard of the
passage OF the death sentence on her
husband vt Queenstown, and was great,
" affected. When she left the United
States the probabilities Of conviction on
the capital charge seemed 80 remote
that the intelligence caused a shock
from which she has hardly yet recovered.
Mr.. Guy, O'Donnell's solicitor, In a
. letter to the London newspapers,
beQs that the mem bers of the jury which
tried O. Donnell will confidentially COM
municate with him, as he desires TO adj
dress them on matter OF extreme ur-
geucy. He says that all other means Of
Communicating with them have failed.
As be was refused q copy Of the panel
of the Jury before the trial, he has BEEN
unable to ascertain their identity since.
Owing to the growing excitement in
Irish circles in London relative to the
sentence of O'Donnell, extra guards
have been stationed at all the prisons
and government Offices as q precaution
against any effort that may DO made by
O'Donnell's Irish friends in ths way Of
reprisals.
A meeting Of Liberal workmen was
held at Torquay, Eng, tonight, al
which it was decided TO send u petition
to Sir William Harcourt, the home sec.
rotary, to commute O'Donnell's &c.
t0nce.

THE TWO Ways,

There are two ways OF con-
Quoting the Clothing bust
ness at the present day
The one in which the dealer
uses his customer tor the
time being and looks only at
the present, thinking that the
future is but a secondary
consideration. In other
words, he max es all that he
possibly can in effecting that
sale. The other: The
dealer figures his prices as
low as he possibly can and
marks them in plain fgureson
every garment, thus giving
every c. stomer the same ad-
vantage in buying. Thus
you don't hear in a week or
two that some one whose
=" dealing "propensities are a
little greater than yours has
bought a suit exactly like
one you wear for two, or
probably three or even more
dollars less than you paid as
in the former way. The lat
ter way we chose, and when
you buy goods OF us you may
rest assured that the price is
the very lowest to any one.
