SEATTLE, April IA. 1891.

Peopie were waiting along
the counters early yesterday
morning, waiting for 9 o'clock
to come around and for special
goods to go on sale.
And what a hustle there was
when the time arrived. 1t was
amusing to see the laces and
silks go. Quick is hardly the
word. They went with a rush.
1t only took a few moments to
make a noticeable inroad in
their quantity and in an hour
we had to say of many of them
';all gone
The China silks at 25c were
sold as fast as clerks could cut
the goods. Every piece was
sold.
The laces went as fast, and
the other special goods were
not behind in the race.
The buyers picked up great
4
big dollars among these goods.
Our direct loss was not a small
one, but we are satisfied.
The hour of starting the
special sale, 9 o'clock, seems to
have been just right. 1t gave
everybody a chance to be on
time. Some ladies were very
anxious to have the goods be-
fore the hour, but they all met
with the same polite refusal
and had to wait.
This surprise sale was only
one of the many that are to
come. 1t will pay you to watch
the papers. We have a lot of
ideas in mind that will please
you equally as well.
Those of you who were at
the sale yesterday morning
know how thoroughly genuine
and great were the bargains we
gave you. 1t needs no telling
to know that the advertise
ments did not even tell half of
their worth. 1t is one of our
advertising ideas that the goods
shall always prove better than
We advertise them to be.
Besides the special laces and
silks. we have large number
Of other splendid lines which
will be continued the week and
these are:
Special Ruchings,
Special Underwear.
Special Hosiery,
Special Shoes.
Special Dress Goods.

To1EDo, Ohio, March 8.-There was con-
siderable excitement in Toledo tonight
over the mysterious suicide Of we'll dressed
stranger In the best hotel in town. Friday
night the young man registered at the
Boody House as Charles j. Edwards, but
Rave no place of residence. Saturday after
noon Rev. Father QuiRley, prominent
Catholic priest, called at the Boody House
and asked II Edwards was there. Receiving
an affirmative reply he notified the chief OF
police he feared Edwards would commit
suicide. The chief promptly investigated.
The door being opened he found the man
dead. On the stand near by wss a vial of
laudanum, "a vial OF aconite, and one OF prus-
sic acid. An examination revealed the fact
that everything which might reveal the
suicides identity had been destroyed, ex-
cspt much worn gold ring, with the in,-
+ Father Quigley says the man came to his
parsonage Friday evening and told him he
was Rping to commit suicide The priest
finally obtained promise from Edwards
that he would not kill himself for twenty
four hours. Father Quigley says he be-
lieves the man came to murder him. When
asked Why Edwards should want
to I'LL him. replied significantly: "You
notice the Commercial this morniug said
the suicide wore Masonic emblem,''
This recalls the highly sensational SER
mon preached by Father Quigley about
year sRo, when he claimed that Free Ma
sons had sent man to kill him.
The dead man has not yet been identi-
fed. On the lapel Of his vest was pinned q
small Masonic badge, square and com

A MYSTERIOUS CRIME.
Murderers Try to Make Out Their Victim
Had Killed Himself.

Murderers Try to Make Out Their Victim
Had Killed Himself.
LONDON, March. 8.-Further facts come to
light regarding the murder Of DR.. Leider-
mann. whose body was found in ravine
near San Reno. Leidermann paid frequent
visits to Monte Carlo. Subsequently two
Germans joined the doctor at the hotel and
| all three departed together on Dec. 20. On
the evening of the same day the two Ger
mans returned to the hotel without Leider-
mann. In response to inquiries
they explained that Leidermann had
suddenly become insane and had
been placed in an asylum at Nice.
That night the two Germans left. The
body of DIR. IIeidermann was afterwards
found as described. The spine Of the muir
dered man was punctured by pin similar to
to those used in Pr ckinG cards at gambling
tables at Monte Carlo. The pockets had
been ritied. 1t was evidently the intention
of the murderers to give the idea that the
deceased had been ruined by gambling at
Monte Carlo and in desperation had COM
mitted suicide. The police sent
photograph of the dead man to Monte Carlo.
There sit was remembered that man that
answered the description had gambied
there in COMPANY with a reputed Polish
countess and her German paramour. These
two have teen arrested and sent as pris-
oners to San Reno. 1t is supposed the
countess decsyed Leidemann. but il is un-
certain rs to whether the man, her para
mour, was aided in the killing. The police
are inclined to the belief that large gang
are implicated i'll the crime.

HELENA MONTANA MONDAY

tain the reputation that they have made in
the Fifty-6rst congress. Others will drop
out Of sight and never be heard OF more.
Many Of these men clasped hands for the
last time on the door Of the two houses ON
Wednesday. Among the distinguish
60 retiring statesmen were four
prominent republican members Of
the house committee on ap-
propriations. They were Butterworth Of
Ohio, Cannon of Illinois, Bayne Of Penn
sylvania and McComss OF Maryland. All
are men Of long experience In congress-,
able speakers, experienced law makers and
sterling republicans. They lunched In the
Senate restaurant shortly after their con-
Rressional careers terminated, and they
were like twin brothers in their affecti0nats
regard for one another. When they came
mp from the restaurant and proceeded from
the house to the senate end OF the capitol
they wore locked together arm in arm, And
walking through the broad corridors joined
heartily in the song Don't You Hear Them
Bells" Butterworth and Cannon have
good voices and they gave them full play,
much to the amusement and entertainment
of the thousands who thronged the great
capitol.
