Robbine the school Children

There is considerable complaint in the
southeastern part of the city OF the rob-
bing Of school children by gangs of prowl-
ing young lads, who take from them their
dinners and books, and on a number of
instances have committed greater crimes.
The shrewdness Of these young thieves
prevents the police from getting them in
to their clutches. They watch their on
portunity, and when the children are un-
protected seize their lunch baskets
and make off before they
can be captured. A case was reported
Yesterday where a little girl attending
enc Of the private schools was struck by
a Young negro lad and seriously injured
i'm an attempt to take from her a package
which the young foOtpad supposed was
her lunch. but which contained a number
OF small packages, which she was carry
ing for her mother.

The above heading of our advertisement
is quotation in one of Shakespeare's
PLAYS. But we take the liberty of using
it in reference to all this foul advertising.
For instance, one will claim he is selling
beLOl1 cost, and the other he or they are
the largest clothing house in the city, or,
in other words, as much as to say will
give you their goods and give you a
basket to carry them away in, and all
such blowing, which does not amount to
a row of pins. We can not afford to give
our goods, nor sell them at cost, for we
must live. But our past reputation for
fair and honest dealing guarantees our
future. 1t is true we advertise, and that
extensively, but do not say more than we
can justly come up to. We only adver-
tise to let the public knew we are still
alive and in the Clothing and Gents
Furnishing Goods business. b. FL. Levy

table Crop-Heavier Shipments Than

frost which came near running the cab
bage crop. and which damaged the pea
and other garden truck, have not
seriously affected the potatoes and later
vegetables. The shipments to Northern

you ever find out that l have ever mis-
represented one iota, will give you the

that my stock of Gents, Youths and

speak solid facts. When / say that my
goods are made to order from materials
selected bg myself, l MEAN 1T. When
say that l will guarantee as neat a fit as
you can get in any tailor shop, Pill DO
1T. Furthermore, if a suit does not fit
you exactly, I'll make it fit you at nly err
peHSe.. When l tell you that my assert
ment of styles and patterns is very large
and superb, l am willing to leave it to
You. When l emphatically protest

inferior or poorly made up goods than | will
charge YOU for mine, do it in the interest
