The Minneapolis exposition was
formally opened last Monday by Mrs.
Frank Cleveland touching the key Of
a telegraph instrument IN the heart of
the Adriondacks, when an electrical
impulse came over the wires which set
in motion the wheels Of the hinge ma
chimes. The dull roar Of the machin-
cry was drowned BY tho deafening ap-
plause from ten thousand throats,
hands and feet, the shrieck Of steam
whistles and the ear-spIitting aproar
from every noise-prodncing contrivance
to be found within the limits OF the
great metropolis. The exposition was
opened. The national, salute OF
l3 guns, a little more music by the
Mexican band, and the formal exer-
cises were over.

Pleading For CiuveriOus.

RICHMOND, Va, Oct. 30.-Within
the past few weeks Governor Lee
has received number of letters APP
pealing to him to commute the death
sentence of Thomas j. Cluverious,
convicted of the murder of Lillian
Midison.
The writer's of these letters most
of whom sign their names live in this
and states further south. The reason
assigned in most cases for asking
this clemency is that the evidence in
the case left resemble doubt of
the prisoners guilt. A Baltimorean
who does not sign his name, conclud-
ed his letter in these words: "Just
give him one more chance OF doing
good in life and may God bless you
will be the prayer of one who is an
entire stranger to all concerned"

duced as promptly as possible, and
the appropriations for each particular
department of fiscal affairs should be
rigidly adhered to and never over
drawn, and in doing this, fund
should always be set aside for inter

The outgo should be limited to the
income in each particular and thus,
even without being penurious, pro-

Wheat Movement.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Nov. RE
ceipts of wheat at Minneapolis and
Duluth were large last week, aggre-
eating 267,76O bushels, while the
shipments from the two points were
only 1861 bushels. Millers reduc
ed their prices for samples one cent.
There are now on track 684 cars of
wheat, an increase of thirty four
since Friday. The guessers on the
next visible supply place the increase
at Minneapolis at 100000 to 100000
bushels. The four market contin-
ues quiet, and there is little demand
for export, Notwithstanding the story
that Milwaukee millers were selling
at nine cents advance.

exclamation of the old officer As
soon as those around him could rally

oyster stew, was provided. The cap
tain ate heartily and that night he
slept soundly. His physician began
to hope for his complete recovery,
but yesterday afternoon the patient
suffered another shock of paralysis

cit is no use to philosophize and specu-

TIL
Winter Is Coming.
THE TIME FOR
% v IL R q O Al T s.

SIX or eight years ago, there were very
few OYERCOATS used, compared with
to-day OV ERCOATS) Ut was a rare thing
in those days to see child wear an OV Err
COAT. But the time has come when an
OVERCOAT is as essential to ones ward
robe, as a fine suit or dress shirt. Moth
ers are not satisfied until jennie, Tommy
or Charley has good, warm, neat fitting,
dressy OVERCOAT, and it arises in their
mind, where can we purchase one to the
best advantage. We can truthfully say
that our stock of OVERCOATS for MEN.
YOUTHS, BOYS and CHILDREN were
never more complete, or bought so low as
this season. Our position then, is such
that we can and will sell you an OVER
COAT fully % per cent. lower this, than
any previous season 1t is no trouble for
us to exhibit our OVERC0ATS. We can
not sell them unless we show them. We
know there will be great many who viii
say, how can you sell OYERCOATS lower
than any previous season, or lower than
any other clothing house. 1t is because
we bought our stock Of OVERCOATS in
the early part Of July, when trade with
the manufacturers was very quiet and the
outlook for them was very poor for good
fall trade, hence they sold OVERCOETS at
a great sacrafice, and of course we took
advantage and bought very heavy. There
fore, our stock of OVERCOATS is COM
plete in assortment, exclusive in designs
and late in styles and lower in prices than
any house in our city dare offer them for.
Come and be convinced Of the truth of all
we say.
