It's q rather difficult matter to

premises is to keep, as we no, In

heavy, medium, and light
weights-the kind that's in de-
mand for midwinter use, the kind
that is called a middle weight"
and liked best on that account
by some, and the light weight
that's suitable alike for spring
and early fall. We can at any
man in all these kinds. Our
mind has been long made up
to keep our prices lower than the
lowest.
In Suits make no mistake as to
the kind you should buy while
March winds are cold and biting.
BY all means let it be either q
heavy or medium weight. You
can't afford to risk your health
for the questionable honor of be-
ing the first to appear in a spring
suit. Yet, should you insist on it,
we have plenty OF Spring Suits
awaiting your inspection, and
thousands being made up for us,
to be ready by the time the
weather moderates.
In Trousers we are quite ready
for you in whatever weight you
desire, and ranging in price from
SO, 90. so, SO, and $3.50 up to the
most expensive patterns.
In Boys and Childrens' Cloth
ing, our spring stock has NOT ar
rived. It's too early yet to make
a radical change in the weight
of the little fellows clothing, but
we have quite an assortment of
medium and heavy weight Suits
and Overcoats that you can buy
now at half their actual value.

The Express Companics' Suits Decide,

The Express Companies Suits Decided.
The express company cases decided Monday
In the Supreme Court, three cases, each pre-
sentcd substantially the same questions. They
were each brought by an express company
against a railway company to restrain the lat.
ter from interfering with or disturbing in any
manner the facilities afforded the express
company for doing its business on the railway
The question presented was the right of the
railway companies TO refuse TO carry express
companies freight over their lines, The rail
way companies claimed the right to transport
express matter over their lines In cars selected
by themselves and under the control of their
own employees. The lower court decided in
favor OF The Adams Express Company and the
Southern Express Company.
This court held that II was not shown in the
testimony that any railroad company had ever
held itself out as Il common carrier of common
carriers. The question was whether these eX-
press companies can now demand as right
what they have heretofore had only as a favor.
The decree of the lower court is reversed aud
the suit is remanded with directions TO dis.
solve tho Injunction and dismiss the bills.
Justice Matthews did not sit in these cases, and
Justices Miller and Fields delivered dissenting
