"A Big Mistake''

Is the subjec t of a clever sketc in our north show window. "A big mistake" is what you will make if you don't carefully ex- anime the suits in the same window. They are are our RIGHTLY MADE Suits, and as they are made especially for us you will not find the same elsewhere. Try them on, you will not find the same fit and finish elsewhere. Another good point, you will find the colors fast, absolutely fast, a very good point 10 consider when buying a winter suit, in the fashionable shades, and last but not least our prices are fast. Every suit is marked in plain figures, one price to everybody, and that price is the lowest that the same quality can be sold for in any city. We have a large trade on these fine suits and sell them at very close margins.

 ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 11.-A sensation has Eeen caused throughout Russia by the press censorship forbidding the news papers to make any reference to the old salt tax, which was abolished decade ago by imperial ukase.

THE MINER LAW VALID.
Michigan Supreme Court Sustains the
Legislative Ens

Legislative Enactment.
LANSING, Mich, June 1.-THE SUI
preme court to-day unanimously sus-
tanned the Miner electoral law, Justice
Montgomery writing the opinion. All
points raised by the petitioners are
fully discussed and decided III the az
frmative for the law,
The law provides for the election of
presidential electors by congressional
districts.
The court declares that the right of
the legislature to determine the mode
of choosing electors has been firmly es-
tabllsheo IN practice in the adoption Of
the constitution, and does not seem to
admit Of controversy. A question
of the construction Of the language may
be reasonably raised, but it is clearly
susceptible of one comforting upon the
legislature power to say how the state
action shall be voiced. It does not lie
with any court to assert that
that right has been lost to
the state by non-usage. The
act in question is in conflict
with the law of Congress, insofar as it
attempts to fix a date for the meeting of
electors and the methods of certifying
to their action, but the law is not neces-
sarily imperative because in some of
it's provisions the legislature has ex-
ceeded its power. The court SAYS:
We have considered the questions pre-
sented with the care that the exceeding I'M
portance of the issue seem to imperatlvely
require, and reach the conclusion that the
statute must stand as the lawful edict of
the legislature. The injustice Of any other
than a uniform system of electing the
President of the United States is manifest.
In legislating upon this subject it should
not be regarded from party standpoint,
but neither the fact that this important
consideration has been overlooked,
nor that this legislation may result in Sc
riOuS injustice can eXtendour jurisdiction
or Justify us in usurping functions which
under the constitution pertain to the legis-
lature.
The court politically is three Repub-
licans and two Democrats. The Miner
law was passed by the last legislature,
which was Democratic.

fortunate victims. Not one single occu-

EDGERToN, Wis, June 16.-The testi-

Drs. Lord and McMannus, of Edgerton,
taken in the inquest in the case of Mrs.
Daniel Stone, whose dead body was
foundin the cistern on the Stone prem

information that Mrs. Stone was MUIR
dered before being thrown into the
water. The post-mortem of the phvsi-
clans revealed that fact that she had been
struck upon the chest with force sutfi-
Gent TO break the clavicle and dislocate
two ribs. The Commissions and longest
ed conditions of the organs prove con-
cluslvely to the minds of the medical
experts that injuries sufficient to pro
duce Inconsistencies were inflicted pri-
or TO being thrown in the cistern. The
coroner's Jury reached a verdict of
death by intentional violence at the
hands or some person or persons I'M
known to tile jury. The case has caused
intense excitement and has proven
one OF the most mysterious murder
cases that has ever taken place in this
county. That this woman should have
been murdered while a Pinkerton de-
tertive was in the house awake and
watching. the surroundings makes the

Two miles from the village was school.
Here twenty-five children were being

Miss Lacaisse was found in the ruins of

when found. one died shortly after,
twelve are seriously and the remainder
more or less wounded.

DEAD IN THE WOODS,
Evidence of a Terrible Crime Found
Near Oconomowoc.

Near Oconomowoc.
OCONOMOwOC, Wis, June 1S.-The re-
mains Of an unknown person reduced
almost to skeleton were found
Wednesday afternoon in the grove be-
longing to George Copethorn, in the
town of Ashlppun, about ten miles from
this city. The local authorities were
notified, but have failed TO make any
investigation. When found the BODY
was headless and both hands
were missing. There were shreds of
flesh attached to the spinal column, and
and portions CT flesh still adhered to
one of the lower limbs. There was no
trace Of any clothing, nor was there any
thing else discovered at that time
which could lead to the identity of the
dead person. A more thorough
search yesterday morning resulted in
finding the missing head under brush
pile some twenty feet away from the
body. The flesh was nearly gone, but
from the hair tt was evident that the
body was that of woman. This is one

have been found within that region, all
more or less mutilsted, the first one
dating back some twenty years ago.
The theory held by the local au-
thorities. that it was the skeleton
of someone who had been dis
sected by medical students, is regarded
generally as too absurd to be enter

EMMONS BLAINE DEAD.

Sudden Demise of the Son of the Ex-Sec-
rotary of statehood Poisoning.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 1S.-Emmons
Blaine, son of ex-Secretary of State
James G. Blaine, died to-day at ILLS
NJ. Blood poisoning, the result of in
fiammation of the bowels, was the
cause. The fact of young Mr..
Blaine's death was kept con-
cealed for some time after he
mad actually passed away, the
object being to reach the father and
mother first with some gentler intima-
ton of the sad news. Efforts to get
telegraphlc communication with the ex-
secretary failed, however, and about
12:l5 the news of the death was circu-
lated.
1t was not until about quarter of an
hour prior to the fatal moment that the
least intimation that Mr.. Blaine was in
a dangerous condition became known,
and then only to few. At his Office,
in the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad head
quarters, his associates were only aware
that he was i'll and had been so for sew
eral days. Reporters were sent to the
Blaine residence, at 135 Rush Street.
but while they we're informed the pa
TENTS ailment had assumed a fatal
form, no other information could be
gained for the time being.
The death scene took place in the
great brown-stone mansion of the Nc
Cormick family on Rush Street. The
wife, Mrs. Emmons Blaine, and the
couples 2-year-old son, Mccormick
Blaine, were the only persons present
besides Mrs. Cyrus Mccormick, young
Mrs. Blaine's mother. Death came
swiftly, when it did come, that there
was not time to summon the other
members of the Mccormick family,
MIR. and Mrs. w. G. A. Mccormick, who
were in the house at time.
Young MIR. Blaine was a notable
figure in the exciting conventions at
Minneapolis that resulted in his fathers
defeat. He took the result greatly to
heart, and was confined to his rooms
here after his return from the North.
During the convention he seemed in
perfect health, and no one who heard
II his sudden passing away WAS
more shocked than those who saw him
participating in caucuses early and late,
night and day. in bis fathers interest.
1t is thought possible by many that the
strain and excitement at Minneapolis,
followed by the keen disappointment Of
the outcome, had not a little to Go with
the PHYSICAL prostration ensuing.

BANKS CLAIM is INVALID.
Decision at Denver Involving Over half
n Million.

DENVER, COL, June 15.-An important
ruling has been rendered in the dis
trict court by Judge Rising. The ques-
ton came up whether the writs of at
tachment IN the case of the First Ma
tional Bank against Jacob Bohm and
Nicholas Steinberk could be sustained.
The court held that at the time of
Bohm's failure and suicide the bank
held, or claimed to hold, an account
against the estate for $587 900. The
bank was the first to attach and would
have made a clean sweep of all
the assets, the demand amounting
to 1851, 900. H. B. O'Rellly, represent
ing $4,000 due the Mound City Distill-
ing Company, of St. Louis, and the firm
of Mihalovitch, Fletcher & Co., of Gin
cinnati, attacked the validity of the
first attachments on the ground that
the bank could not prevail in an i'm
Piled contract and on tort as well.

County. Dispatches from Forsyth say
that John Nettleton and Richard Mey-

challenged. The young men fought
with butcher knives, both dying in fear
full agony from loss of blood. Each had
at least thirty cuts, most of which were
fatal without further injury.
