FIRST GRAND DISPLAY

Thousands upon thousands of
dozens beautiful new Handker-
chiefs now on display. We will
not have larger assortments or
better styles between now and
Christmas, which simply means that
our complete Holiday stock is now
on exhibition and ready for your
inspection.
To accommodate the rapidly
growing business, We to-day have
doubled the Ladies Handkerchief
Department. The annex is on the
same side of the main aisle, across
the aisle entering into the Cloak
Department. In fact handker-
chiefs have added the entire space
previously occupied by the Ruch-
ings and Ladies Neckwear. These
goods will now be found in the ex-
treme rear of the same room.
In the Gentlemen's Handkerchiefs
every facility possible is afforded
for the display OF goods, and par
ticularly for prompt and salts
factory attention to customers.
An important point to keep in
mind is the fact that prices on
Handkerchiefs are as low, if not
lower, than ever before. Many are

new cruisers for Uncle Sam, and the Captain
states wild scramble is in progress to
secure the orders for steel plates. About
5000 tons will be needed to build the three
vessels, and Mr.. Steele adds that two-thirds
of all the steel used in constructing Govern
ment boats is made in Pittsburg. It is
safe to say that Pittsburgers will secure the
bulk of the job.
Since, by experiment, it has been demon
strated that cruisers like the Baltimore with
and 8-inch guns can smash the strongest
iron plates, the English have been much
exercised, and they are now putting in
nickel, which resisted successfully the hot
shot fired. The Baltimore was built with
low deck and has good speed, but it is so con-
structed that the shells from an ironclad
will pass over it.

badly decomposed, and the man had evil

ago. At that time it was believed that
Mateer had shot one man, and the last seen
of the burglars after their escape was near
