 PHnADELPHIA. Oct. s.-It does mol look now as if the prosecution was go- ing to have an easy task fastening the murder of Mrs. Miller on the negro. Lingo, unless they have evidence of which the public has no knowledge. His attorneys now explain the where abouts of the lmissing razor and the blood stains on his clothing. Lawyer Jess, speaking of the razor said: tWe have had Lingo's razor ever since he was arrested in the Leconey case. It has never been out of our posses sion. We are ready to turn is over to the State at any time, and so convince them that one of the mysteries, so far as Lingo is concerned, is cleared away.
 'tAs to the blood stains on Lingo's clothing that can be easily explained. Frank is a known professional hog killer for the farmers about Match town, and was bound to get more or less blood on his clothing"
 Dr. Bartine, prominent physician of Merchantville, said that from the appearance of the wound in the murdered womans neck he was of the opinion it was made with some other instrument than a razor, one not as sharp.

The Great Secret
 Much Talked-Of Concern,

Perhaps there is no house in Connecticut whose success and methods of doing business have been commented upon more favorably than that of the Water bury Furniture company. Here is the secret which We have never made public before. We tried it simply as an experiment and felt certain that the people would ''catch on" if it proved to be a good thing.
 The merchants of Waterbury began to wonder why it was that two thirds of the newly married couples invariably bought their goods from us after visit ing all the other dealers. They thought it was our acknowledged low prices, but we knew better and kept very quiet until we saw how our idea worked. NOW, we give our secret to the public, because our reputation is established for originality of design.
 Many years ago, in going around to the different stores, we noticed that there was very little difference in the styles and designs of the goods. The designs all appeared to be alike. We went at once to New York and engaged the ser vices of first-class designer and started immediately for the West. We gave our own special designs to the manu- facturer, and that is why you will al ways see something in our stores different from what every other dealer has shown you.
 Nobody Wants What Every One
 Else Has Now. We have found our plan to be novel one and therefore pronounced success. We have great run on our $1O Plush Bed Lounges.
 65 Different styles of Parlor Suits. S5 Different styles of Chamber Suits. Those $22 and $25 Solid Antique Sets arc going like hot cakes.
 We are the largest and cheapest house in Western Connecticut.
 Our Stoves and Ranges are the best in the world.
 Ask for our Quaker Jr, Shaker and Fi National Range.
 Parlor Stoves in endless Variety. Our Undertaking Department is complete, with full line of Robes, Habits, Gas kets, etc. Perfect satisfaction guaran teed. The public know and concede that we are the BEST.
 We want them to know that we are the CHEAPEST.
