The quick intelligence of this
community has grasped instant.
ly the fitness Of our great re-
failing in January. We have
not invented any new ideas,
have only applied them. Trade
laws are evolution, not inven.
ton. The sagacity comes in
the keen sight and use of them.
We saw plainly that the fit.
ness Of things indicated Ian
uary as the trade time for some
thing else than the paroxysms
of closing sales. In bygone
days acc did something Of that
sort. We are wiser now. OF
course we want to sell frag.
ments of remaining stocks, and
We try to, but they are merely
casual, the dust of the move
ment- gold dust to you.
Therefore it is more properly
"a Trade Sale. Why buy Mus.

ing. Between seasons it paws
to keep an otherwise idle or
ganization busy if only trading
a new dollar for an old one. At
each of these points something
is saved-saved for you, and
you know it. We know you
know it by the magnificent way
in which you buy.
The same notions apply to
scores and scores of other
things-and they are reason
able notions. The selling on
Friday and Saturday proved
them practical.
And they are comprehensive.
Al parts of this place are
touched by them. This morn.
ing Art Pottery, China Table
Ware, Upholstery, Dress Goods
and Trimmings. Wall Papers
and Carpets bring forward
their claims to attention. With
each IS some great and peculiar
touch of economy that vitalizes
all the worth and beauty Of
each item.
Remember also that Cotton
Dress Goods, Linens, Muslin
Underwear, Shirts, Mems and
Boys Clothing, Agate Iron

Of many sorts have preceded

AT two points of the day on
Saturday the business was

with it. To-day begins with
an increase Of force, and we
are ready to serve all corners

ANOTHER SENSATION.
In the Niles Case at Springfield, Ohio
Children Kidnapped.

SPRINGFIELD, o., April "a case of
kidnapping occurred in this city to-day.
The children Of DIR. and Mrs. Niles are
mysteriously missing, and another sens
ational chapter has been added to the
Niles habeas corpus case. low pending
In the Probate Court. The disappear
ance was not discovered until this morn
ing, when a search was instituted.
Everything points to the kidnapping of
the children by Dr. or Mrs.
Niles or friends. Information
was sent TO the police, sheriff
and DR.. Niles. The latter denies all
knowledge OF the affair, and is rushing
wildly around in vain hope Of finding
the children.
Seven weeks ago Louis, four years
old, and Paul, seventeen months old,
were placed in charge of Sheriff Baker,
who turned them over to Mrs. Batchel-
Ter, Both parents were permitted to
see them. Mrs. Batcheller went to mar
ket this morning aud left the Niles chill
dren in the house. The neighborhood
was searched but no one could be
found who had seen the children.
I he gate leading TO the alley was
open and fresh wagon tracks were visi-
Bile. Officer Warner found footprints OF
the little ones in the alley and the foot
print of lady's shoe was also found in
the alley at the gate. From the width
OF the wheel the children must have
been driven in carriage or spring
wagon. The entire police force were
notified and Joined in the search. No
one was fonnd who had seen any one
drive up to the house, and the children
had not been gone ten minutes when
they were missed.

"PEG wOFFINGTON." !"
A Splendid Performance at the Opera
House, Last Evening.


About the only disparaging remark
one would care to make Of last even
ing's performance Of Peg Wellington, ="
at the Opera House, would be TO call at
tention to a seeming lack Of interest on
the part OF the bright particular star
who essayed the title role. II would be
too harsh to term this Indifference, but
there was noticeable something which
took, to use u term, the keen edge OH
an otherwise excellent and enjoyable
comedy performance.
Rose COghlan has surrounded herself
with company OF exceptional merit, as
was abundantly demonstrated last even
ing, and her version OF Charles Reades
great comedy was given in an almost
perfect manner. OF charming presence,
added to an elaborate and correct dress
ing OF the part, Miss Coghlan's only err
ror was a want OF earnestness, but II
was an omission which was easily for
given and quickly forgotten. Miss BE
atrice Moreland's Unable Vane," and
Miss Eta E. Bakers kitty Give,
were admirable representations, while
of Mr.. Thomas Whiflln's "Triplet,
Mr.. Luke Martins "Colly Cibber,' Mr..
John T. Sullivan's "Sir Charles
Pomander," and Mr.. Mason Mitchell's
Earnest Vane," collectively and In
dividually, too much praise can not be
bestowed. Mr.. Edwin's "Snarl' vas
also beyond reproach. The scene upon
the stage at the end OF the second act,
where the mnuet was danced to Boc-
cherinni's gem, was very pretty, and
won from the audience an enthusiastic
demand for repetition, which was ac-
corded. Miss Coghlan and Miss More
land were also recalled at the end OF
the next act.
This afternoon Lady Barter will
be presented, and this evening the en-
gagement will close with "London As
surance."
