The Reason of the Rush.

A REFLECTOR representative called
this afternoon at Hazlett's and saw for
himself tie reason of the big rush in
the clothing department of that firm.
I'VE are closing out at COST" said the
manager and we could we'll balieve it
for never were such prices put On cloth
ing, boots, shoes, hats, caps etc., as
they are making now. Everything has
to go, without a cent of profit and pa
irons are receiving the most wonderful
bargains ever known in Abilene. At
the present rate the stock will be closed
out in short time so purchasers must
hurry. The overcoat trade is particu-
larly crowded though a fine line of
handsome coats are left. We were con-
WINGED that purchasers should call
quickly if they want bargains.

PAINFULLY PERIsHED.
A Young Girl Meets Her Death
in q Vat of Boiling Sorghum.

IN Vat Of Boiling Sorghum.
A painful and fatal accident occurred
Friday night about four miles south
of Heringtsn by which the 9-year-Old
daughter of C. G. Brown, well-known
farmer. lost her life. Mr.. Brown had
been making sorghum and large vat
of the boiling syrup was standing near
the barn.
By some means the little one fell in
to the vat aud was for moment COM
pletely envelOped in the bubbling syrup.
No one was near her but shs managed
to escape from the vat and go a short
distance before losing her senses.
DR.. J. w. Money, of Herington, was
sent for IL hot haste but was unable to
save the child's life. After three hours
OF pitiful suffering, the skin and flesh
being cooked and bleeding, she passed
away in great agony. The parents are
almost heart broken over the accident,
as the child was the pet OF the house
hold.
The funeral services were held in
Herington yesterday afternoon and
were attended by laIge number of
friends who went to show their
sympathy for the sOrrowing relatives.

The second surprise for Abilene in
the way of misplaced confidence de-
yeloped yesterday when it was discov-
cred that "Prof." w. E. Binder, prin-
cipal of the Fourth ward school in this
city was a forger and had for some time
been unlawfully using his friends
names.
The first intimation of the matter
was when G. n. Duke, the Cedar street
barber, wrote to County Supt. ]. S.
Ford yesterday saying that the interest
on the note he had endorsed for W. E.
Binder was not kept up and he would
have to see to it. Mr.. Ford was sur
prised and Immediately went to Mr..
Duke about the matter. The note was
shown him and it was sure enough en-
dorsed by J. S. Ford in very clumsy
forgery of the county superintendent
signature.
FACING THE FORGER.
Binder had given the note six
months ago, the amount being 800.
Mr.. Duke had before this held a SIM
liar note with a forged endorsement Of
Ford's name for $50, but this had been
taken up and replaced with the 800
note. Binder had failed to pay the in
terest and so Duke called upon the
surety.
Together the gentlemen faced Mr..
Binder who was instrucling the young
ideas of North Abilene in the Fourth
ward school. Upon being confronted
he wilted at once and confessed all.
lie was brought down town and went
to his room in the Carpenter house
where he remained until late in the
afternoon. He then turned over his
eff, cts, wages, etc, in such manner
as to partly, at least, satisfy Mr.. Duke
and WAS allowed to skip which he eX-
pedi,iously did. No one knows where
he has gone or how much other devil
try may develop yet.
A PECULIAR CASE.
Binder, who is about q years old,
came here from Pennsylvania about
three years ago and has taught ill the
district Schools Of The county until this
year when he secured d position i'll the
Abilene schools. lie has had excellent
success and though somewhat coarse
natured was generally liked. lie WAS
a regular church attendant and his
tuneful voice always went up IL song,
he being usual y member of the choir
wherever he attended.
He has not been extravaganza i'll bis
living and yet WAS always deid broke.
When teaching in the country his
wages were frequently garniShctd 10
secure friends from whom lie had Dor
rOwed money. He leaves uUIubtrleso
debts about town for clothing. livery
stable bills, etc , the Carpenter huuSe
being behind about $50 for board,
though secured 10y his personal fleets |
which were turned over.
Mr.. Ford acted exceedingly magnan-
imously in allowing the fUrger 10 escape;
but as this is perhaps his first great de-
Darture from the paths of rcctitude it |
will possibly be better for him than to |
blast his future life with ten year
sentence in the pen. After Binders
Dase ingratitude in using the name of
Mr. Ford, the man who had most be-
.riended him, lie would seem to deserve
10 mercy.

Indian Moccasins.

The shoes or moccasins worn by the North
American Indians are nearly all alike in their
general structure. The moccasin, slipper
made of soft deer skin, without heel, is
common to nearly all of them. Many of them
have leggings either detached or connected
with the moccasin or shoe so as to form a
boot.
Some of the Indians ornament their moe.
casins with beads, quilts or embroidery.
Among the southern Indians, where no pro
lection is needed from the cold, a shoe is made
consisting simply Of a sole of thick hide bound
on the feet by thongs
Among the Apaches an odd attachment is
found on the boots or moccasins This is q
little projection Of the solo in front Of the
toes, generally made in the shape of little
round pad. This is called cactus crusher
and has its purpose When the Indian walks
through growths Of prickly cactus the crusher
beats down the prickers in front of his foot.
Some shoes Of odd form, with elongated heels
and toes, are used among the Navajos and
other southern tribes in their dances and Ger.
