"A Little Story. ;
 

We are not way up in tariff reform, but when manufacturers and commis- slon men say to us, ''Now the Mckinley bill has become a law" we cannot make any future contracts to deliver goods except at market prices at time of delivery. With all Foreign Goods advanced and our own home productions sure to advance, we are forced to sing the same song, "Clothing is bound to advance.n You are working over time, making good pay and under an advancing market, wages cannot be reduced and you will hardly feel any advance, for we have been secretly preparing for just this thing. Being in market every week in the year has kept us we'll posted which, with our largely increased facilities, we nave been able to provide against an advancing market even as far as next Springs goods. Our little story is that we can show you large stock of Fall and Winter Clothing away under actual value to-day, and would advise every one in need of of an Overcoat or Sult to purchase now that our selec- ton is large, for you are sure to be obliged to pay more next winter. Re- member this is good sound advi ce. This is the winter to buy an Overcoat, and the c. w. D, the place.

CAPTAIN PARCELLS' CLAIMS.
He Sues the City for salary as TIA
Collector.

He Sues tho city for salary as Tax
Collector.
Captain G. S. PARCELS was the very
efficient City Tax Collector for the term
ending in December, 1886. During his
term of Office the Council reduced his
salary very materially. Mr.. PARCELS
has brought suit to recover the amount
of salary due him, making his claim for
the difference between what he received
under the reduction ordered by the
Council and what it would have been
had no such change been made. The
case was tried yesterday before Judge
Wade, John Roberts appearing for the
plaintiff and Charlie Mcfarland for the
city. 1t will be submitted on briefs, five
days to each side to file. The Court
stated that there were two points to be
covered. One is, had the Council the
right to reduce the salary during the
term for which Mr.. PARCELS was elected !:
and if it did not have that right, then is
Mr.. PARCELS barred in bis suit by the
statute Of limitations. Mr.. Parcells act.
ually held Office and drew salary up to
the end of December, 1886. The CITY
Attorney raises the point that his success.
sor qualified about the middle of that
month, and if that was the end of Mr..
Parcells' term, part of his claim would
be outlawed. He was the de facto
official, and drew salary as such. which
will no doubt bring him within the
limits of the law. His claim amounts to
81, 200.
