There has been some talk about all these

The GREAT QUESTION.

What is it? That depends who asks, and
who is asked. We are tackling a very great
question on our own account just now. and
it is no less interesting TO you than it is to
US. We have n great many more Shoes
than we know what to do with. They are
superbly made, handsomely finished, and
in point of material they will stand COM
parison with anything that was ever pro-
duced. We are reduced TO the necessity of
reducing prices; there's nothing else for it.
What's the result? Just what you might
expect-a bonanza for the buyer. It's the
old story: Everything comes to him or her
who waits. These are figures worth wait

The shock was heavy enough to jar beds

dence yesterday afternoon and smilingly
admitted that he had taken no account of

Davidson. II want TO tell you frankly that
we haven't got tracing of this particular

thinking OF the election or something else
and we hadn't got the pin adjusted to the
blackened plate.

gave the apparatus a tiny push forward
Sideways, backward and forward again.
Here's an earthquake tracing I've made II

The reporter smilingly assured the Young

This remark caused the elder Davidson
who had come into the room unobseryed. to
"smlle audibly."

son. with wink to THE CALL man not To

In THE HANDBALL COURTS.
Players Rapidly Joining the variou
Clubs OF This City.

That handball is becoming more popular
daily was fully evidenced yesterday by the
unusually large crowd Of enthusiasts Of the
sport who assembled at Phil Ryan's court
to witness some interesting games.
Since it has become known that handball
was "our" Jim Corpett's favorite exercise
while ne was training for his great fight
with John l.. Sullivan, number of ANA
teurs have entered their names on the list of
Ryan's club and meet at the court for prac-
tice during the week frequently.
The bracing weather brought out large
number OF players TO take advantage of the
few remaining fair days before the rain be-
gins.
The days sport commenced with a we'll
contested single between Fay and Nelson,
which the former won by good tossing with
a score Of 1913, 12-15, 15-9.

forty-nine species of animals there which
were unknown to any other part OF the
world. Within recent years many domes-
ticated creatures have been introduced by
stipS and have run wild. Thus at present
there are wild cattle, horses and goats on
the islands: likewise wild asses. which have
acquired remarkable habit of sitting up

wild dogs in drOves, as well as f0cks of
