AGreatW oolen Industry
Started up again for the Winter.

All through Eastern Pennsylvania, South and
Middle New Jersey, Delaware and the Maryland PENN
sula, the demand for ~frst-class Al-Wool Clothing IS
larger than ever. We feel the pressure Of It already.
Good crops. the early laying in Of winter supplies, the
trading going on at local centres in our neighborhood
all point in the same direction. There's z general
feeling that the winter will be early and hard.
Under our standing compact-it has almost the
force Of a signed contract with the people-we have
provided Clothing by the ton, Overcoats and Suits
by the thousand.
There are too many for description. Under the
old fashioned name-Beavers-are some OF the incest,
dressiest Overcoats Of the season. Kerseys and Vene-
ions-thei smooth, handsome finish youknow. They
are fixed in the likings Of young men-the colors are
so attractive; they line 50 elegantly. These Cvercoats
are $40, SIS, $I8 to $35 and $45.
Ten choices in the pattern of a Suit for one IN
Overcoats. Black Chevots and Silk Mixtures, fancy
check and plain colors from $40 to $25; in Dress Suits
from SIS to $50.
The cloths are scientifically tested, the making IS
done under our own hands, the selling is direct from
our workshops to your backs. The difference that
makes to you is about 20 to IS per ccnt-theC Clothing
IS that much better.

LIKE THE DAYS OF SLAVERY.
Colored Migrants Sold on the
Block in Missouri Race
Troubles Threatened.

FAYETTE. Mo-, April 24.-This
town is again on the verge of race
war because Of sale of vagrant
negroes which took place here yester-
day. About month ago good
deal of excitement was caused by
the sale of three vagrant negroes.
Yesterday the feeling was intensified
by public sale on a block of three
men and one woman, because they
offer no visible mode of support.
Hy Thompson, William Muller and
and John Wilkins were the men.
ALI are hearty negroes who were
never before arrested on any charge.
The woman was a looking
mulatto, Mary Whiteside. She was
accused of vagrancy. The colored
people were brought into the public
square at III o'clock and a great
crowd of both colors gathered. The
whites made fun of the poor victims,
and the blacks freely expressed their
displeasure at the scene which
brought to their minds the days of
actual slavery. The woman was put
up first. She brought $40 for the
sixty days work that the county
fined her. The men sold for $40,
sl2 and $l3 respectively, being
taken by reliable farmers hereabouts,
The woman will work in q good
family in town. The negroes de-
clared that this must stop or that
the whites must be sold with the
negroes. The sale took place on a
block, Sheriff Crieger officiating.

HAY Famine in Sullivan County.

A hay famine prevails in many
parts of Sullivan county. Some of
the farmers have turned their stock
out to gnaw the bare ground. Hay
is becoming scarce and is in great
demand at S14 and SIG per ton at
the barn. Some of the dairies will
be in poor condition for making a
butter record this season. Cattle in
many places look like "the last run
of shad." Cows cannot be wintered
on half ton of hay per head in this
climate neither can crop be pro-
duced without labor and fertilizers.
A few cows well kept are worth
more than a large flock in starving
condition. This is not only un-
profitable farming but is cruelty TO
animals. "a merciful man is merci-
fu TO his beast is rs true to-day as
ever.

Murder Of Marks.
LATE AND AUTHENTIC.


Guy G. Hollon, Detective of Brad
ford county, in whose special charge
the murder case has been put, writes
District Attorney Grimm of this
county, dated April 25th, as follows:
Il have done much work both be-
fore and since the Inquest, and have
gathered enough evidence in the
case to hang twenty men. Have
got Marks overcoat, (the coat was
not on body when found) covered
with blood, his horse and sleigh and
other property found in his murders
ers possession. Have found where
and how they shipped (Marks
goods, but they have a months
start, and may now be in Russia.
The murderers went to New York
city, on the 21st of March. We
have men working on the case there;
have worked night and day and have
travelled many hundred miles. We
know our men. have hopes that
you may yet have the chance to con-
vict the perpetrators of this most
dastardly murder, and that | may
yet see them stretch some good old
hemp imported for that purpose.
The search for the fugitives by my
self and competent force under
me, is being pushed with diligence
and if they are this side of the At
lantic they are ours.

Good Roads.

Everybody is interested in good
roads or should be, and it seems as
if great opportunity to arouse the
public to the Importance of an inn
proyement in the highways will be
lost, if at the Worlds Fair there be
no comprehensive road exhibit. The
present condition of country roads
is amazing when we consider the
progress Of civilization in other di-
rections. Sullivan county, and for
that matter every other county in
the union, is still in the pioneer
period with roads. Uncle Sam
helps to make rivers and lakes
navigable, he helps to keep back the
waters of the Mississippi from inun-
dating the lands along its shores, he
builds great structures for cities and
does lots of other things for the
public good, why would it not lie a
good plan to ask him to help to
make better roads. We believe a
comprehensive road exhibit at the
great Exposition at Chicago would
be the most powerful factor that
could be used to bring about nation
al and state legislation for the con
struction and maintenance of good
roads.

Authentic crop reports give South Da-
hota by far the mos: favorable prospect
OF any Of the agricultural states. These
reports claim that in other states, oven
North Dakota, the rain has been so con-
slant that farmers have had no oppor-
aunity to SOW and plant, while during a
short spell in the early spring there was
Il cessation of rainfall in South Dakota
which enabled almost all of the spring
planting to be done, One thing is now
mighty certain: South Dakota has had
more rain this spring by far than was
ever known before, willie the ground is
now SO thoroughly wet down that there
is and can be no fears of Il drouth. A
most bo;.ntiful crop, Il phenomenal
yield, Is assured and the high wave of
prosperity is coming our way faster

that something is not right about his neck
and puts him i'll at ease. To avoid the
annoyance try one of our Wilson Brothers
shirts and you will never ask for any 9TH
er make. Those gentlemen have the well
deserved reputation Of not only using the
best material, bnt also of making the best
fitting shirt in the market. To do good
shirt justice a good collarand pair of cuffs
ought to be put on with it. The well

Besides the dress shirts we sell all the
