oEAI lie, hIdrCn d, 1901.
Have a look in the second
show window from the corner
today. We are making another
showing Of the new spring
dress goods. Here is won
derful beauty. Notice the soft
coloring of the goods, elegantly
toned patterns. Perfection is
the word to use when talking
about these goods.
What do you think of the
dress we are showing in the
same window? This is another
of those imported Partisan suits
about which everybody is talk
ing. 1t is perfect gem and,
everything taken into consider
alton, is really not expensive
at $500.
By the way, these dresses
show the difference between
the stocks carried by us and
other houses. Where will you
find another house in the state
that has anything near SO cle-
giant or costly as these dresses.
and where will you find another
house that imports SO large a
proportion of its goods directly
from Europe?
We know that we have got
the just exactly right stock Of
dress goods this season. Item
braces the most fashionable
patterns and the markings are
unusually reasonable. Take
dress patterns for instance,
they run along something like
this:
Those nice light Scotch chcviots, wide
range OF shades, at s..el salt
Here is anothfr scotch cbeyint, a trifle
better and splendid value IL s,,7s suit.

So q sui.
These fashionable fiaitis ii: Si..Jo. really
worth $3.50 to sl1.a
Then the combination suits in all their
qualities and various designs ut from
Sl2.;3 70 $500 each.
The inlia siIks, those with the polka
do; pattern, are doubly pleasing at $l.oo
yard We have seen the same thing
advertised this season in the east rs
bargain at sl.s5 yard.
In the piece goods como along these
cheyiot checks ut SOC yard, which
would sell just rs fast and give coed
satisfaction II they were marked 40.
IIcDe spun cheviots, the ones with
those exquisite soft shades, at J0c, s5c
and SIC yard.
New cashmercs, in all the shades. at
zoe and &c yard.
And SO it goes through all
the range of dress goods.
Keep in mind that the shoe
department is offering extraor-
binary and great inducements
to both ladies and gentlemen.

HARD TO FIND A JURY
That Is Not Ready to Convict Constabl,
Lane on Prima Facie Evidence.

That Is Not Ready to Convict Constable
r. Lane on Prima Facie Evidence.
FRESNO, CAL, Feb. 26.-The trial ol
William G. Lane, for the murder oi
William Garfield, at Sanger, November
18th, 1890, began this morning. The
courtroom was crowded long before the
hour when the court convened. The
defendant at the time of the killing was
constable of Sanger. He is we'll con-
nected, having many wealthy relatives
in this county. The best legal talent,
consisting of three law firms are en-
ployed to defend him.
Garfield arrived in Sanger from Selma
the afternoon OF the shooting. He met
Lane, who was intoxicated, and after a
conversation left him and went with two
women to a questionable part of town.
Lane followed shortly, and knocking at
the door OF the house stated that he
wanted to arrest Garfield. He was ad-
mitted, and told by Garfield that he
would go with him if he (Lane) would
produce mis- warrant. Lane refused to
show the warrant, and grappled with
Garfield. After desperate struggle
Garfield succeeded in releasing himself
from Lanes grasp, and turned to run.
Before making many steps, however,
Lane opened fire, shooting his victim in
the back. He then fired two more
shots at his PROSTATE form. Garfield
died two weeks later from the effect of
his wound.
A venire of fifty was exhausted today
and only three jurors obtained. Nearly
every one had read about the killing,
and had formed settled opinion. The
court adjourned till Saturday morning,
and special venire for sixty talesmen
was ordered.

BAY CITY BRIEFS.
A Ships Cargo Afre or Cape H0rn--The
wreckage OF the Elizabeth Sold, Etc.

A Ships Cargo Afre or Cape Horn-The
wreckage Of the Elizabeth Sold, Etc.
SAN Francisco, Feb. 26.-The German
ship Orient, Captain Kuhl, from Swan
sea, has arrived after voyage OF 257
days. On September 18th, when off
Cape Horn, her cargo OF coal was found
to be afire. The vessel was headed for
Ancud, on the Chloe islands, where she
was pumped full of water. She then
proceeded to Valparaiso, where she was
overhauled before she left for this port.
While at Valparaiso the Morgan ship
at a loss of 100000.
The bark Helen W. Almy arrived from
San Benito, Mexico, today. Captain
Luttrell states that when the bark left
the Gilbert islands, September LIST, the
Arthur l., which left here several weeks
ahead of the Almy, with mail for the
islands, had not been seen. Wreckage,
supposed to be part of the vessel, was
picked up at one of the islands.
The wreckage of the ship Elizabeth,
which went ashore four miles up the
coast from here, last Saturday, was sold
today at auction to Captain Whitelaw,
for 5000. Such of the cargo as may be
found above low tide was sold to A. Stein
for $500.

ish ship Hesperides, which collided
with the bark Alex. McNeill in the bay
during the gale of the Oath inst. 1t is
alleged that the vessel and cargo are
worth 100000, and the United States
district court is asked to award them
competent salvage.

WASHINGTON, Pa, Feb. 26.-The execu-
tion of William West in the jail yard at
this place today, for the murder of three
members of the Crouch family, was an
awful affair. This morning the con-
demned man, who had secured in some
manner a sharp piece of iron, plunged
it several times into his throat. When
found, he was unconscious from the loss
of blood. After several hours
work, the doctors succeeded in rous-
ing him from his comatose condition.
Outside the Jail, all was excitement, as
many negroes believed West innocent.
Weak as he was, he made desperate
fight when the sheriff's party entered
the CELL, Finally it was decided
to administer ether. Even then
he struggled so fearfully that
they finally determined to strap
him to board. An ugly fight followed
the attempt to bind him, and more
opiates were administered, until he was
finally carried out helpless and uncon-
scious to the gallows. When the trap
was finally sprung, the combined weight
of the plank and man was too much for
the rope, and it broke, hurting West to
the ground, amid a groan from the
crowd. West was awakened from
his stupor by the shock, and realizing
what had happened, struggled fearfully
to free himself. The groaning, writhing
man was picked up by the death watch,
and carried back to the gallows and
again launched into space. The fall this
time widened the gashes in his throat,
and blood streamed in great jets from
his neck. His neck was not broken,
and he was allowed to hang thirty min
utes before he was cut down.

BERLIN, Feb. 26.-The Cologne Gar
zette, commenting on the conciliatory
overtures Emperor William made to
France, of which the visit OF the ex-
Empress Frederick is regarded as proof,
says: ''The French have right to
think OF revenge, but they have no right
to injure the feelings OF the head Of this
empire, and his mother, by insults that
could be expected only Of scoundrels.
The German people feel deeply the out
rage upon the person of their emperor,
and they have right to expect the
French people and government to give
ample satisfaction and wipe out the
stain upon the honor OF France, by en-
ergetically calling to order the miserable
W retches who have insulted the ex-Em-
press Frederick
The Freidenblatt declares that the
German ambassador to France, in long
conference with the minister of foreign
affairs, gave notice that this would be
Germany's final attempt to conciliate
France.
The Post, commenting ON the Partisan
incidents, says: ''It will evidently bring
the necessity for struggle nearer. The
sword would have been lowered long
ago, were it not for Russia"
The Vienna papers attribute this agi-
tation in Paris to Russian designs, car
ried through Deroulde and his followers.

Which Has Not as Yet Been Traced

'Did you get your invitation YETI"

porter yesterday.
(Which one, major? Reporters are

champagne dinner. He has invited you
and General Johnson and myself to the
best dinner in the city, on his return
from San Francisco, as sort of fare
we'll before taking his office"
care you sure about that, major?"
"Well, couldn't say, positively, but
that's what l heard. Here comes john
son, let's ask him." and the general was
brought to halt in front of the Ma
deau, and the major asked him:
"How about that dinner which Fitz-
gerald has invited you and the HERALD
man here, and myself to, when he gets
back. Is it go?"
"Why, heard something about ter
rapin and champagne for us three.
said the general, "but Fitzgerald hasn't
sent me any formal invitation yet"
"Nor me, )" said the major.
s'Nor me-" said the HERALD man, and
the three could not trace the rumor
down to satisfactory source, but they
suppose that proper foundation for it
has been laid, and that no objection as
to it's being incompetent, irrelevant or
immaterial will be heard.

Three Quarters Of the Town Flooded and
the Rest Doomed.
SAN Francisco, Feb. 26.-Superintend-
ent Fillmore, of the Southern Pacific, re-
ceived dispatch from Yuma today,
stating that the town is doomed to de-
struction. Three-quarters OF the city is
flooded, and the water is also threaten
ing the last quarter. The operator
closed by stating that he could not keep
his place another half hour. Southern
Pacific division headquarters have been
swept away, with the ticket and freight
offices. The round house and machine
shops will probably escape, as they are
on high ground. The twelve hundred
inhabitants OF Yuma have taken refuge
in the penitentiary on high ground. The
bridge across the Colorado river, five
hundred feet long, will be destroyed, as
the water is almost up to it, and rising
foot an hour.
Yuma lies to the southwest OF the
bend of the Gila and Colorado rivers.
To the northeast of the city is the PEN
itentiary, on high ground, and to the
northwest is high mesa. On the slop-
ing sides of both hills part OF the town
is built. East of the town there was
formerly levee, which was destroyed
by the flood; and instead of being re-
built, a second one at right angles to the
first was constructed, intended to pro-
tect that portion of the town from the
overflow ei the Colorado. This This latter
calamity, however, has happened. and
added to it the swollen ella river has

The New Tuberculosis Cure.

BERLIN, Feb. 26.-At last nights
meeting of the Medical society, Professor
Leibrich detailed prescription for the
preparation of his new tuberculosis cure,
as follows:
Two -tenths of gramme of canthara-
dine four-tenths of a gramme OF hydrate
of potash, or three-tenths of a gramme
of hydrate of natron. These ingredients
ought to be weighed exactly in one
thousand cubic centimeters of water,
and then warmed in warm bath until
a clear solution is obtained. While the
warmth is maintained water should be
gradually added until it reaches the
mark. When the solution becomes cold
cold water should be added until the
whole amounts to exactly one litre.
