A Little Green

Fred Spencer, plumber from La Sale
secured employment with Clegg & Dougher
~ about four weeks ago, and at about the
same time married daughter of Mr.
Green, glass blower. He was sent out to
do regular work, and nothing was thought
Of his character until he repaired the water
pipes Of MIR. Kings residence on the bluff,
on Monday, when solid silver butter knife
and pair Of kid gloves were missed after
his departure. Mrs. Will Nash accused the
girl of caressness, but the latter maintained
that the plumber had stolen the articles, in.
sisting upon it so strongly that Mrs. Nash
inquired who he was, and finding that he
hailed from La Sale, grew rather suspicious.
Clegg took three two dollar bills, copied tho
numbers, and placing them in Mrs. Nash
pock ct book, had it laid on dressing case
in one Of the up. stairs rooms, at the same
time "qeering' gas jet. He then sent
the man up to finish the job of the day be-
FORE When he had finished the water
pipes Mrs. Nash asked him to 60 up stairs
and repair the gas jet, giving the location of
the room. He went up, walked into the
room, and then came down saying he could
not find it. He was again shown its location,
and making an examination, reported that q
new burner was necessary. When he had
departed the purse was examined, and it was
found that he had taken the three two's and
two Of the ones. He was arrested and placed
in Jail. Later his house was searched, and
the butter knife and gloves, q castor which
had been placed in Mr.. Kings garnet, and
half bushel Of silver ware of every style and
shade, beside q quantity Of tools and mate
rial stolen from Clegg & Dougherty's shop
we're found. He is either q professional
thief, and entered the marriage tie and the
plumbing business to throw off suspicion. or
is professional plumber with an inordinste
desire to acquire wealth without labor. In
either capacity, he is rank burglar and
will go upward.
Spencer's house was again overhauled on
Thursday, and seventy new books stolen
from the public library came to light, with
fine clock, stolen from Miss Emma Rich.

1t costs money to be enter

Getting the clothing made as
we want it costs money. Our
advertising bills count up. Why
do we take such large risks'
We see no other way to get
the trade we are after. We
know no other way to gain a
Just return and reward for our
enterprise.
Yet, it isn't such a risk after
all. 1t is only a question Of
waiting long enough, and every
body will bring their money to
the store that sells the best
clothing.
We don't propose to wait a
day longer than is necessary to
get the best clothing known.
We are not going to let timid-
ity and the cost of printers ink
keep us from quickly success

We can sell twice as much Of

the Second. Fifth, Sixth Seventh, Eighth
and Tenth districts.
The frat vote was on the 9th district and
gave the delegates to Malone.
On the question Of adopting the minority
report on the End district of Virginia, a
vote was taken by states. the chair being
now careful to explain TO the convention
that an aye vote meant the seating OF the
Malone men and no vote seated all the
Wise men.
When Ohio voted half and half. 10 aye
and 10 no. there were roars OF laughter,
Sherman's state had neither stood by him
nor by anybody else. She had skilfuly
straddled the rail She stuck her head 10
the sand, imagining that she did not show
her weakness
The announcement OF the vote was $50
ayes and 5l2 noes, or two to one against
Malone and John Sherman.
The vote showed what everybody had ex
pected that ell the other candidates were
combined to throw out the Mahone-S -Sher-
man delegates 1t was the field against
John Sherman, and the field won two to
one. Little Connecticut was the first state
with favorite son TO vote a solid no
against letting In the Malone men.
Gresham's Illinois Supporters cast forty two
votes the same way, and only two 10 favor
of Malone. Indiana stood united for her
favorite son, Harrison. Uncle Dick Thomp
son cast her thirty votes against The old
Virginian. Allison's Iowa cohorts went
solidly the same way. Louisiana's seven
Sherman men stood for Malone,
and her nine anti Sherman delegates
went the other way The state
of James q. Blaine showed its hostility to
John Sherman by pumping 10 IL votes in
favor Of John Wise's man. Old Frisbie Hoar
could only pan out six Sherman votes from
Massachusetts, TO 30 against the Ohio man
New Jersey gave 12 the same way, and
four for Malone. Then there was a great
hurrah as Warner Miller. Ia the absencs
of Chairman Depew, pumped In 50 votes
