nARsHELL. THE CASH GROCER.
VIII save You Money.


Grapesl A good deal can be said about
grapes, and there are good many kinds OF
them. Sour grapes" have been proTer61al
for ages, and must be especially 30 now dur
ing the reign Of the Sugar Trust.
Bus 1t IS California eVaporated grapes We
want to talk about now. We think We
know good thing when we see it. And
the tirst time we saw these grapes we bought
two tons as little starter. This was just
q week ago, and We sized it up about right,
for they are half gone already. They are
something new, and they are without doubt
one of the incest new things out Solomon
said there was nothing new under the sus.
but Solomon got left when he departed
without seeing these grapes We fear the
old gentleman had hard time with his
numerous wives, but these grapes would
have sweetened his declining years. How
much? 5 pounds 25c and the greatest bar
gain of the season.
Canned fruits are like New York's
sacred 4O0-a little uppish. But We have
bargains. We always do, you know.
Blackberries, cans 25c, is one Of them.
These are strictly hrst-class goods. We
recommend them because we know you viii
like them.
But newspaper prices are often misIead-
ing. Send for my large weekly price list
and get complete list Of all nv prices. I
am the only retail grocer issuing price
list each week and my list means some
thing. I guarantee my prices and sell By
my price list.
Orders amounting to $40, without count
ing sugar, packed and shipped free Of

How Prisoner Chapman BOwIed Over tn

How Prisoner Chapman BowIed Over the
l.. & o. Champion-A. WIshart BObs
Up Once More-Fun at the Jail.
William Chapman was committed to Jail
yesterday by Alderman Carlisle on charges
of selling liquor without license and on Sun
day, entered by A. Wishart, in default of
81, 900 bail.
The circumstances of Chapman's arrest
were rather unusual. A son of Alderman
Carlisle was the arresting officer. Chapman
is a large, fne-looking man, beside whom
Young Carlisle looked like a school boy.
Chapman good-naturedly accompanied Car
Isle as far as the Jail entrance, and then
suddenly remembered that he had little
business to attend to down town. He in
formed Carlisle of his intention of going
down 10 attend to it, but that young man
thought prisoner had no right to attend to
any business, and caught Chapman by the
arm to lead him into Jail.
Chapman stretched out his arm and Car
Isle went spinning out into the street. The
act was repeated several times, and quite
crowd gathered around enjoying the fun,
much to Carlisle's discontinue. But, al
though embarrassed, Carlisle did not allow
his fear OF his prisoner to get the better of
his Judgment, and he accommodatingly al
AOheu Onapman 10 cross Ine street. anu carry
on a conversation for half an hour with
some friends. though he kept coaxing him
all the while to come over to the jail and al
low himself to be arrested. Chapman, how
ever, paid no attention to his cap
tor, except to catch him by the
neck every once in awhile and send him
running out into the street until his CONVEX
sation was ended, and then he started down
the street, Carlisle following. In about an
hour Chapman returned to the Jail, followed
still by Carlisle, and turned himself over to
Warden Berlin. Carlisle turned the com
mitments over to the Warden, and the pris-
oner was locked up.
In addition to Chapman Alderman Car
Isle committed Marshall Moss aud his wife
to Jail yesterday on charges of illegal SELL
ing and Sunday selling. A. Wishart was
the prosecutor in both cases.

How BoOtblack Made james Mcknight
Look Like n Contractor.
James Mcknight, while standing upon
the City Hall steps yesterday, was ap-
preached by bootblack, who said, "Shine
EN- up, sir; black yer boots, patent leather
polish, for a dime" Mr. Mcknight looked
with scorn upon the imputed desire for
dudeism. and said, "What do want with
polish? am a contractor. It isn't polish
want it is mud. Look at Jim Booth, at
Martin Joyce and others, now if my shoes
were plastered up with mud it would
be"
"Yes, responded the newsboy, with ready
ingenuity, and darting out to the gutter, re-
turned with two big handfuls of mud, which
he carefully distributed over Mr.. Nc
Knights lower clothes and shoes, and hold
ing out hand begrimmed by contact with
the mud-throwing which was as vigorously
conducted as in an ordinary political cam
paign, the boy said, "Now gimme the dime,
I've made contractor of you"
The contract was carried out, and the
dime paid.

Is There Any Wonder That Policemen Soon
Learn to Swear.
AL the difficulties encountered by the
police are not made by the criminals, or
those trying to get outside the reach of the
lasn of the law. The manner in which the
police bureau is notified of the advent of
criminals is sometimes as misguiding as il
the man who wanted to dodge the officers
dictated the telegram. For example, the
following received last night from jean
nette might be taken to cloak the stunted
smasher of the laws of the Commonwealth
rather than lead to mis- arrest:
Look out for short, hump backed man. Rob
berry in Jeanette. JAMES A. FARMER.
The telegram giving no time in which to
look out for the coming man, subjected a
great many people who might be afflicted
with spinal deformity to arrest, more
especially If, as in nine cases out of ten, his
stature happened to be short. The descrip-
ton was taken with receipt for ten words
and several grains of salt
