NEW YORK RACKET STORE Al
BELINDA, VA,

The Racket Store is daily. growing
in popularity as q place to get good
goods ut low prices, admits of no
doubt in any ones mind that deals
there, to be successful merchant,
one does not require large amount
of brains or tact, but he wants the
right kind of system. The old time
way of buying on credit end selling
on credit makes the merchant and
buyer both poor. Think of the diff
ference of IS per cent. and SO per cent.
and then consider how much cheaper
one can buy the goods if he has the
cash. No wonder the cash system
pays both parties.
We of the Racket Store have intro
duced the cash system here and have
surprised many. That goods can be
sold SO low considering the quality:
We sell Hamburg and Lace, NC: at
prices never heard of before. Why
can we sell so cheap? Because we
buy for cash of the big failures like
Allnutt, Nixon s. Goldsborough and
other such failures, so that we can
sell them at wholesale prices. We
have just received a large lot Of
SHOES from the trustees of Allnutt,
Nixon g. Goldsborough, which we
will sell at wholesale prices, and you
have only to ask your neighbor to
prove our assertion.
We have other special lines in now,
such as Mems Shirts, Hats, Dress
Goods, Mating, Irish Potato Seed,
also Powell's Fertilizers for all kinds
of trucks.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 1S-The
Senate Committee on Commerce to
day reported the River and Harbol
bill with amendments. In TIL, Viz
ginia appropriations the only
changes made are as follows:
The entire proyiso in relation to
the improvement of of the harbor at
Cape Charles City, for which $4,000
is appropriated, is stricken out and
the following substituted:
That before any Governmentmoney
shall be expended in the improve
ment of this harbor or any of it's ap.
proaches the said New York, Phila-
delphia and Norfolk Railroad Com.
pany shall execute and file with the
Secretary of War paper satisfac-
tory to said Secretary of War
giving to any and oil vessels,
VI on any and all occasions,
for all time to come, the right
to enter and remain in said harbor
and transact business therein, with
out charge, except legitimate. usual
and reasonable wharf charges.
The House provision required that
the basin and approach should be
decided to the United States, together
with q public landing. In short,
that the property to be improved
should be absolutely conveyed to the
United States
| Of the items for Virginia rivers the
appropriation of $4,000 for improving
the Lower Machodoc creek is stricken
out; the $4,000 for Rappahannock
river is reduced to $4,000.
Under the Maryland items an ap-
preparation of sa5,OCO is inserted for
the inland waterway from Chinco,
league bay. Virginia, to Delaware
bay, Delaware.
MIR. JONES WILL OPPOSE THE CHANGE;
Representative Jones says he will
make n determined fight against the
reduction proposed by the Senate
Commerce Committee in its amend
ments to the River and Harbor bill OF
$4,000 in the appropriation for Rap
pahannock river. He says the SUN
is pronortionately small: that even
$50, 900 is small in comparison with
the Importance Of the river ard itt
commerce. Mr. Jones hopes to have
the S2OOOO restored in conference
He is also dissatisfied with the change
in the provision in regard to Cape
Charles City harbor. The Senate
provision leave ne property to be
improved in possession of the rail
road company Mr.. Jones insists thai
if the Government is going to sp"nd
money for improvements the proper
ty should he conveyed to the United
