SAMUEL J. RANDALL. Randall came to
Washington early in last November sick
man, but with hopes of improvement. He
expected to be able to take his seat in the
house when congress met in December. But
when congress convened he was unable to
leave his home. Subsequently the oath Of
office as representative was administered
at his residence by Speaker Reed, and Mr..
Randall was made member of the COM
mittee on rules and appropriations-the two
important committees he had served on for
so many years. Mr. Randall then hoped to
be able to take his seat and participate ac-
lively in the affairs of the house at the con-
clusion of the holiday recess, but the dreaded
and fatal NAL, dy from which he suffered
slowly but surely made inroads on his
strength, and each month as it passed found
him weaker.

EAPKED SUCCESS.
Pfaefie & Francisco VIII Close Out Their
Retail Business,

PfaefFe & Francisco VIII Close Out Their
Retail Business.
Less than year ago the well-known
jewelry house of Pfaeffle s. Francisco
went into the wholesale and manufact-
uring business in connection with their
retail business. Their trade has been
constantly growing until they find
it necessary to withdraw entirely from
the retail trade and devote their entire
time to the wholesale business. To close
out their retail stock in q short time
they have decided TO begin at once
to dispose of all their splendid retail stock
of watches, clocks, jewelry, silverware,
diamonds, etc., at actual cost. This
sale will be entirely different from the
usual closing out sale, and the sooner the
stock is sold the better the firm
will be pleased. They are pressed
for time now and hope by the offer they
make TO be able to retire from the retail
trade in short time. Both Mr.. Pfaetfie
and Mr.. Francisco say there shall be no
reserve in the sale, all the retail stock
they have will go at cost and
the figures they place on goods
shows that they mean what they say.
This clearing at cost sale begins at once.
The many friends of this firm in Fort
Worth and other points in the state re-
greet to see them leave the ranks of
prominent retail merchants but at the
same time heartily congratulate them
on their wonderful success in establishing
at Fort Worth the only exclusive whole
sale jewelry house in Texas.
