The immense sale of the Hartsfield &

Canadian, as well as to other towns east
to Marshall and west to Albuquerque, N.
NJ. While our own city people, ever

longer Mr.. Nuke, the trustee, expects to
sell at present prices, but judging from
the great quantity of goods going out and
the large amount still on hand, Harris
field s Roe must have had a tremendous

on parlor suits or they would not be offer
ing those elegant goods at such astonish-
ing low prices.
