For The Spring Campaign.

Approaching the fact that the de-
mand for spring goods of nearly all
kinds begins at an earlier date each
/ year, Newman s. Co. determined to be
ION time" this season, and therefore
placed their orders in December and
January, and, in many cases, even at
an earlier date than that, for all lines
of goods needed for the early spring
trade, and they have been coming in
freely during the past thirty days.
This has been particularly fortunate
at this time, as it has enabled them to
get in the bulk of their spring stock at
the extremely low freight rates that
have prevailed lately, and even the
late strike caused them no serious in
convenience.
DRESS GOODS
In consequence of this course their
stock of dress goods in all the seasonal
BILE wool and other fabrics is complete,
and they are prepared to show such a
variety in this department that it
would seem impossible that any one
should fail to find something to please.
All of the better class of goods were
selected from the first importations,
which are always the best, and in most
cases it will be impossible to replace
them later in the season. This renders
them all the more desirable as no lady
cares to see the town flooded with a
pattern which she happens to have Sc
lected. 1t is difficult TO describe any of
these goods so as to convey any intelli-
gent idea of them and personal in
spection is cordially invited, or if out of
town send for samples which will be
cheerfully mailed on application.
TRIMMINGS.
A great variety of braids and braid
passementeries are shown, together
with handsome lines of cord trimmings
girdles, ETC., and in the way of beaded
and crochet trimmings, they have some
elegant goods. Their lines of pushes,
surahs and similar goods are also COM
pIete.
ACK DRESS GOODS.
] Never before have they shown so
full and varied a line of black goods
and as they are the exclusive agents in
Emporia for the justly celebrated
Priestly & Co.'S. make of these goods,
you can make no mistake as every fab
ric turned out by this factory is the
very best that can be made for the
money. The dyes are perfect and you
can depend upon their not turning
rusty, and taken altogether they are
the most reliable goods made. You
will know them by the vanished board
! 49, -, t.
the PrIestly trademark.
WASH GOODS.
Here you will find extensive lines OF
French and domestic satines ranging
in prices from Is to 40 cents yard and
containing many beautiful designs.
!. In zephyr cloths, French ginghams,
, and similar goods many pretty things
are shown, and when it comes to the
: cheaper goods such as domestic GIN
CHAINS, Tolle du Nords, curtain cloths,
prints and other everyday fabrics
well, you will find mountains of them
from which to select.
,, HOSIERY.
OF course they have everything in
the way of hosiery for men, women and
children that is likely to be called for,
but they wish to call particular at
tentlon to a line of black hose for
ladies and children, and half hose for
men, which they have just added and
which is absolutely fast in color. No
stocking is so pretty as black one,
nor so unsightly if they become dingy,
and every lady knows how difficult it
has been heretofore to procure one
that holds its color. Newman & Co.,
can now confidently offer you one that
will hold its bright, clear black color
until worn out. They are known as
the Onyx" brand. If you will try
one pair of them and they crack the
feet, stain the clothing or fade In
washing with ordinary care, your
money viii be cheerfully refunded.
CLOrHI>G
3 Newman s. Co.'S stock of spring
clothing is now about all in, and VIII
be found to be the most complete and
attractive in the city. Almost any
taste can be gratifed, and while many
other lines of goods have advanced in
y price, clothing of all kind still remains
at the same low figures that have
caused the manufacturers to wear such
o long faces during the past year. Take
a look at their stock and you will find
that, even in these hard times, it viii
not be necessity for you to wear the
old clothes when you learn the prices
of the very genteel suits they offer you
d for so small consideration.
d OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
All the late things in hats, white and
fancy skirts, plain and fancy flannel
shirts, scarfs, ties, hosiery, gloves, and
the many little traps that go to COM
plete gentleman's outfit will be found
"a here in abundance at reasonable
n prices.
= SPRING WRAPS.
81 A visit to their cloak department
e cannot fail to be of interest to the Ia
~ dies, for it contains an exceedingly
q handsome lot of the latest things in
et stylis h beaded wraps in latest shapes
u and in a wide range of prices, a great
n variety of jackets for spring wear il
m such diversity of style and wide range
Id of prices that failure to please is moi
ld considered one of the probabilities.
CARPETS.
It is a well known fact that New,
mans is the only extensive carpet de
partment in this section of country IL
fact. that very few except in the large
IA cities excel it, and when it is said thai
" they have never opened season with
Id as handsome a line as that receiveC
as. within the past month. that is enough
TO convince all those who are well IN
dy formed. that it is unnecessary to lool
81 farther. Remember that they maxi
50; and lay all kinds of carpets at reason
| able charge and guarantees satisfaction
