THE colored people of Alabama must

years he besought this holy, psalm-sing-
ing administration for the Office of post
master in Charleston in vain. The two
good civil service reformers and consist
ent Presbyterians who alternate their
hours of labor between prayers and poll

coming, persistently refused to recognize
either the color of Crums skin or
the shade of his politics The

and Harrisons Agents approached Crum
Crum went to Minneapolis to oppose

and louder than Convert Higgins.
He returned home by Washington and
called ON President Harrison. They two
prayed together A colored rascal is
nothing if not pious We refrain
from any remarks about the
quality of the Presidents piety.
The nomination of DR.. Crum
for postmaster at Charleston was hur-

Philadelphia, Tuesday, August ?, 1897.
The weather to-day is likely
to be cloudy.
Among the concise phrases
that we have coined to describe
important business occasions
the term
Furniture Trade Sale
is eminent.
Our policy has given a fixed
meaning to the words
Furniture Trade Sale
The public understands us.
We never juggle with words.
Every plan and movement has
a definite individual meaning.
We use words to explain-not
to conceal. Therefore a
Furniture Trade Sale
is not an aggregation of unsala-
bic old stock put before you
in a new fashion. 1t represents
a complete, unique, concrete
idea, fully worked out in pains
taking and thorough fashion.
The idea covers all the re-
putable Furniture factories of
the country. Our buyers scour
the trade. They have ample
cash at command. They relieve
trade congestion everywhere
by taking all the surplus.
Furniture-makersarehu human.
Sometimes they die, some
times partners fight, some
times they fail, and thus es-
tates have to be liquidated.
Thus come important chances.
Sometimes they are foolish
overstock. Then come other
chances. And so the
Furniture Trade Sale
collects worthy exceptions in
great quantities at prices that
take no account of costs and
values. The between season
period, the hot weather, aio
our bargain-making and your
bargain-getting.
The followingwill give some
notion of the extent of the
trade collection.
twenty-five hundred Bed
room Suits at prices from SIS
to $50. A good Oak Bed
room Suit, 3 pieces, at SIS
