One of the oldest trade-truths tells us that "well bought is half sold"
 That same truth is two-edged. It punctures the pocket of both retailer and consumer. The keener those edges are kept the better service show they to both.
 "Well-buying" can work won- ders, for even the cutest consum- ing-expert. He aPplauds suc- cessful results merely as an inter ested spectator. Were he ''be- hind the scenes" his admiration would be centered on the efforts that bring these results to birth.
 Bargain results are the bright est evidences of "well-buying" to the shrewd shopping-woman. No argument can appeal against such conviction.
 Bargain results from a dress goods well-buying are in keeping with many October thoughts. To-day's types have some. | Seven of the silk bargains: | eiinch Black FaIIle Francaise Si %. | 24-inch Black Rhadames Sl %. | Extra heavy Colored Faille Franchise Si-oo. | Heavy Quality all silk Satin Rhadame soc | Rich Satin Duchess 95c.

An Exciting Time in Front of the
 Divinity schoel-Young Man Badly
 Injured.
 Last evening about 6:30 o'clock Clarence Leete and Henry Gladding were riding bicycle down Elm street near College, when an accident happened which caused much excitement. They were not riding tan dem, as the bicycle was only meant for one. Gladding was on the stopper of the
 bicycle and Leete was on t-e seat. The
 young men are employed by E. F. Hill,
 janitor of the divinity school, and they
 room there. MT. Hill lives at 99 Howe, where he has resided since the fire in East Divinity hall, and both the young men take their meals there. They were coming from supper and were just in front of West Divinity, when Gladding jumped off and ran ahead. The Dixwell avenue car was not far behind and was coming at | fairly good rate of speed. Gladding, in ! trying to cross in front of the bicycle, | struck the front wheel and fell. Leete was thrown across the track right in front | of the car. The horses passed over him without injuring him, but the end of the ! brake caught him and turned him so that l his right foot and left leg were on the l track in front of the hind wheel of the
 car The car stopped just as the hind | wheel was about to pass over the foot.
 Leete was pulled from his dangerous posi- tion by MT. Duncan, the well-known en- ! graver, and several students and taken to his room, 70 West Divinity. Thompson (
 Yale '7S man did much to make him com l fortable. He was insensible when rescued and remained so for some time. Gladdine called in Dr. Foster, who examined Leete
 but found no dangerous injuries. Leete was doing very we'll last night and will bt about in few days.

 Repairing East Divinity Hall.
 The place where the fire in East Divinity hall started is now positively known. In 8 room in the northeast corner the floor is burned through. This is the only spot so burned, and investigators think it proves conclusively that the fire must have start ed in the room, just in what way nobody knows. The occupant of the room was absent when the fire broke out. From the ceiling of the second floor every piece of timber had to be taken out and new put in. A new tin roof has been put on and masons are at work continuing the four brick walls that extend to the fourth story, up to the roof. If this had been done before the fire would have been con- fined to one-fourth of the attic. The cost
 of repairing will doubtless be s10,000. Contractor James H. Church, through his competent foreman, Mir. s. NJ. Judd, is making the necessary repairs. T. w. Cor

BARBER COUNTY PLATFORM.

We, the representatives of the Peoples par
ty OF Barber county, in delegate convention
assembled hereby heartily endorse the action
of the Cincinnati conference believing that
the declaration put forth there is one of the
most important events of the century, and we
invite the voters of Barber county to stand
with us for the overthrow of the combin ations
of capital which have first forced one party
and then the other, to submit to their selfish
demands.
We present not merely theory, Jefferson
ian or LincOlnian; but like those great states
men, we ask you to meet the conditions which
confront you, and with their fearless states
menship. Sink or swim, live or de- we have
unfurled our banner for '92, embIazoned with
the battle cry, Equal rights to all, and spe-
clal privileges to none"
We condemn the action of our state senate
in obstructing reform measures demanded by
the people; and while we could not expect the
house. in single session, to reform all the
abuses which have grown up under republican
action for the past twenty-five years, we COM
mend them for what they did, and demand
that they shal II continue in the good work till
1t shall be fully accomplished.
We commend the efforts of the county of
GERS to enforce the law, and we believe tn
moral sentiment of the county condemns mock
trials at the expense of the people. We pledge
our candidates to be law abiding men, who will
not wink at crime or corruption, and we pledge
ourselves to ask the resignation of any one
found guilty of the same.
We demand an economical administration of
national, state and county affairs, and strict
accounting for all money taken from the peo-
pie in the way Of taxation, and we denounce
the boasted extravaganza of the recent billion
dollar congress.
We believe that the politics of the past has
become corrupt, and that a change will prove
beneficial, and thus believing we invite all
persons who are interested in the welfare of
our state and county to unite with us in our
efforts to bring back the decalOgue INTO poll
tics, and to prove that purity in politics is not
an iridescent dream.
We commend Judge Mckay for his Arm
stand in administering the law without fear or
favor, and we denounce the spirit of dema-
gogy which has attempted to bring him into
reproach.
