Tell the Truth.

There are large class of people
who are easily 'gulled," and who can
be drawn into anything that prom
ises something for nothing. They
like to be humbugged. Those who
are so DISPOSED find ample use for
their Imagination writing advertise
ments that are intended to mislead.
The only way in which houses that
do business on a solvent basis and
give value for value can compete with
these lying tradesmen is to adhere to
the Straightforward, confidential
style of advertising. It is the straight
truth about straight goods or honest
service that sets the people right on
the question OF patronage, and edu-
Gates them to detect the difference be-
tween the fair dealer and the swindler
by the tone Of their advertisements.

BLOOD AND BURGLARY,
A HOUSE RANSACKED AND AN
INMATES THROATCUT.
The Burglar Discovered, Uses u
Razor-Effects His Escape,
but a Warrant Out
for His Arrest

Between four and five o'clock this
Perry's boarding house, Sol Soledad
street, was buIgarlzed, pistol
stolen, and an inmates throat
was cut from ear to ear, with
presumably, razor. The burglar effect
ed an entrance by breaking out pane of
glass on the south side of the house and
lifting the latch. He then went through
the drawers and trunks of the room and
then entered the room occupied by
young colored man, Morris Scott, and his
wife. Being in the dark. the man had to
feel his way, and thus placed his
hand on SCOTS face. The latter i'm
mediately jumped up and grappled
with the burglar, in which the
intruder drew sharp weapon, cutting
Scott's neck from ear TO ear. The bur-
glar then broke through the door and
made his escape. An alarm was imme
upon the scene of blood and burglary in a
hurry, but the man had escaped, and the
place where he jumped the fence was
marked by his bloody hands. Scott says
that the burglar was naked, which he
knew by his graphing with him. DR..
SOmmerVllle was summoned ana the mans
wounds were dressed. Fortunately no
vital organs were severed, and the young
man stands good show of recovery.
Another negro, Lee Graham, also en-
ployed with Scott, in the electric light
works, is suspected of the crime. He was
with Scott, Sunday, attempting by var
ious means to borrow some money, in
which he failed. Graham knew the
place well. He lived just across the
river near the convent bend.
and this morning failed to appear
at his house, and also at his work. He
knew that Scott had some money, and
other valuables which he was eager to
obtain, as he wanted to go to Austin to-
day to see his girl. At noon today, o
boarder at Mrs. Perry's residence appear
ed before Justice Anton Adam and swore
out a warrant against the man Lee Gra-
ham charging him with the crime, and
the authorities are on the lookout for the
man. 1t is believed that he has taken
the morning train for Austin.
III he was naked, as claimed, it is be-
lieved that he came over with the de-
liberate intention Of securing booty or
blood. In that case, it is thought that he
left his clothes on the east bank Of the
river, so that he would not soil them with
blood, and could wash off the stains on
himself, and thus prevent detection,
