& Great Revolution.

The Golden Eagle, with good will to-
wards all, has instituted a revolution in
prices that viii astonish all beholders. as
they are bound TO get rid of part of their
immense stock of clothing, they are now
o!Tering goods at unheard of prices. All
you have to do is to call and convince
yourself that you never saw clothing sold
so cheap.

That Hackman

1t seems that Charles Burkman, the
hackman arrested by Officer Metsch, was
not taken in so much for having lost his
badge as for having called out, Hack
for Davenport at the c., NJ. Il St. P.
depot after the officer told him to stop
yelling. The policeman arrested him,
and told him to drive to the armory, and
was about to get on the seat with him,
when Burkman whipped up his horses and
skipped out for Davenport. But three
shots from the officers revolver notified
the guards, and the festive driver was
compelled to come back to the police
station. His case will come up before
Justice Halves for trial on Friday AFTER
noon. The question now is, 'has hack
man right to call out or solicit patron
age at the depotsf" They do it on the
streets.

On Wednesday evening Mr.. Fred APP
pelquist will leave for Hot Springs, Ark,
in the hope that the trip will do him some
good. He expects to remain at the
Springs one month at least, and perhaps

New Orleans before returning from the

his popular and efficient assistant, will
conduct Mr.. Appelquist's business.

The Weather.

The black flag was still v wing from the
flag staff of the signal service station in

around town snapped with the contract
ing action of the frost This morning
thermometers ranged from ten to sevens
teen degrees below zero in different places
around town.

weight with it when referring 10 the Col

and furnishing goods at such low prices
that if you are really in need of anything
you will surely buy.
