Is a very good thing, and where real merit
is advertised success is assured, but in
our days every little shebang with no ad-
vantages to back it, advertise, and if you
believe everything you read you will GER
tairly get left. Here is case In point:
If YOU read all the advertisements of the
Savannah clothing stores, you would
think that they must be almost giving the
goods away, but if you try every one of
them YOU will find that the Famous New
York Clothing House will give you better
goods and lower prices than all others.

ssWhen Greek Meets Greek then Comes
the Ting of War;,


The heading of our advertisement is
very appropriate when applied to our
trade, for there is constant war among
clothing dealers, especially this season of
the year. One will claim to do more than
the other. 1t is needless for US to say that
we are the cheapest and most popular
Clothiers in the city, for our past reputa-
ton speaks for our future, as we have
never failed to do what we say. We will
now inform the public that for the re-
mainder of this season we will offer great
inducements in the balance of our Sum-
mer Stock. Straw and Manila Hats we
will sell at New York cost price, and
Clothing at a very small margin. All
those who wish to avail themselves of this
rare opportunity will find it to their in
terest to come early.

Heavy clothing must go. What are you
going to do about it? OF course, you need
a thin office coat; it saves the business
coat and keeps you comfortable. For a
Summer Business Suit we recommend
YOU to see those we offer at reduced prices.
These suits were made by us to sell for
SIS; they shall go at $13, and tip-top bar
gains they are. For your own interest
we ask you to look at our clothing before
you make any purchases. ''Famous"

Columbus EnQuirer-Sun: Capt. j. W.
Voolfolk, President of the Georgia Mid
land and Gulf Railroad Company, received
on Saturday a telegram from Mr.. j. ID.
Trammall, chief of the engineer corps,
notifying him of his arrival in Atlanta
with his corps of engineers, having COM
pleted the preliminary survey. The corps
left here June with full stan, and
their progress with the survey has been
noticed from time to time since they
started out. We understand that the en-
gineer gives the distance between here
and Atlanta as 104 miles. The Georgia
Midland and Gulf Company has been or
ganized with the following officers: Presi-
dent, j. W. Voolfolk; Secretary, c. L.
Davis; Directors, DR.. n. j. Bussey,
George P. Swift, jr., G. Gunby Jordan, I.
L. Blanchard, NJ. Z. Gray, B. I. Hatcher,
John f. FlOurnOy, G. L. Davis. The en-
gineer will now make estimates OF the
cost OF building the road, and the proba-
bility is that it will not be many months
before actual work begins.

himself. 1t was clearly case of sui
