The Bright and
Genial Spring
Shuttle off the
Weighty OvercOat
Hang up the
winter suit

Set your faces and your wishes to Spring Over
coats and Spring Suits.
The hands and the wit of our thousands of work
ers-cutters, helpers, sewers have been gathering
Spring goods into our house for many days. All
ready nowhere glad to say.
Spring promises big for business. We've prepared
big. The cloth buying amid the hum of mills, the
quiet purchases from cloth makers who hunt us up, the
making-up of one, two, five hundred suits at a stroke
interesting and perennally new as the story of how
the wool off the sleeps back grows through a hundred
processes into its perfect use is to your thoughtful
mind-skip it all.
Don't skip this you'll buy from the manufactu,.
rer direct or from a store that buys to sell again:
Which will you do? Your dollars are at stake.
Will you buy your $40 suit from us?
Will you buy your $40 suit from us? @
Will you buy your Spring overcoat from us?
Sik-lined or not, long or short-we have all.
We can save you IS to IS per cent, surely-per-
haps more.
The goodness of the Clothing-that's another
thing. Stores, like people, make their own regulations.
After more than thirty years of selling reliable, all
wool clothing, under guarantee of standing by our
goods, we'll not swap horses now. If you buy our
clothing, you buy the best.
The prices are the lowest because we sell as well
as make the goods. The money saving and the good
wear go to you.

TEMPERANCE RESOLUTIONS.

The Committee on Temperance of
the N. j., NJ. E. Conference made the
following report, which was adopted
without ii dissenting voice.
Resolved, /. That we concur with
the Episcopal Address in recent de.
liverance of the General Conference
where it is declared: I'm our Judgment
the saloon is an unmixed evil, full OF
diabolism, a disgrace to our civilization
and a continual menace to the order of
society and the peace and purity of our
homes,n therefore we fully believe that
the only proper attitude toward the Ii
quor traffic for Christians, is that of re-
lentless hostility, for ut can never be
legalized without SIM ,
Resolved, 2. License laws are the IL
quor tratllc's strongest bulwark of de-
Tense. They are wrong in principle and
impotent for good, because they pro-
vide for its continuance, and afford no
protection against its ravages. We
therefore demand the unconditional
surrender OF the rebellious business.
Resolved, 3. That we most cordially
indorse the work of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, and we
will welcome them to our churches and
cooperate with them in their work
wherever we can.
Resolved, 4. That We most hearty
indorse the recommendation of the
General Conference of 1892 to organize
Christian Temperance Leagues every
where for united and practical effort in
suppressing the liquor traffic.
Resolved, 5 That we condemn the
lower house Of our national congress
for its repeated refusal to pass the bills
providing for the appointment of a ma
tional commission of inquiry to investi-
gate and report upon the influence of
the liquor traffic upon the material and
moral welfare of the country"
Resolved, 6. That 1--WE Recommend
all members of the Methodist Episcopal
church to so use their solemn trust In
the elective franchise rs to promote the
rescue of our country from the guilt
and dishonor which have been brought
upon it by criminal completely withthe
liquor traffic.
1--WE do not presume to dictate the
political conduct of Our people, but we
do record our deliberate judgment that
no political party has a right to expect,
nor ought it to receive, the support of
Christian men, so long as it stands
committed to the license policy, OF re.

for life. To effect an escape lie poison

He has been recaplured and will be re-

This should be an effective argument

A MYSTERIOUS CASE.
An Unknown Old Man Dies From a
Blow on the Head.

DiOW Ou Liz
On December 25 last an old man was
taken to the City and County Hospital in
an unconscious condition and was placed in
one of the wards for treatment
For some unexplained reason there was
no record made Of the mans name, age,
place OF residence or the cause OF his
injuries when he was admitted to the insti-
tuition, and 1t was only when the ply scians
who examined him reported his case as
exceedingly dangerous that any attempt
was made to ascertain the particulars that
should have been secured when the patient
was admitted.
1t was found that the old man had con-
fused wound about three inches long located
Just behind his left ear
Finally some one but no one knows who,
told the hospital authorities that the mans
name was William Johnson, his age 70 aud
that he was supposed to have been injured
by a blow from sandOag but where, when
or byiwhom was not learned.
johnson, as the man was afterward
known, improved rapidly physically and
was considered eonval6 scent, but mentally
he was an imbecie and could give no ac-
count OF himself.
Last Friday he was walking about the
hospital when he suddenly fell TO the floor,
his head striking with fearful force on the
hard boards. From that time on he grew
rapidly worse and died on Wednesday
morning.
The body was brought to the MOrgue as
that Of William johnson. An autopsy was
made by DR.. O'Brien. who states that he
believes the wound on the mans head to
have been caused by blow with some
blunt instrument
During the day Yesterday man called at
the Morgue and identified the bLGy as that
OF William Foy. and stated tnst the man
had worked for him and that tie injuries
causing his death were due to fall.
a There are half-doZen stories now afoat
about how, when and where the man was
hurt, but none Of them have foundation
enough to warrant their acceptance as the
truth in the matter. The inquest on the
remains Will be held to-day, and Coroner
Hughes proposes If possible TO get at the
facts in the matter.

SHE HAD ROBBED HIM.
A Female Thief Chased Along Kearny
Street by Her Victim.

Adolphe Scarcenanny. a Belgian IRON
worker, who lives at $50 Bryant street, and
is employed at the Union Iron Works. set
out to see the elephant last Tuesday night
with $50 in his pocket. In saloon on
Stockton street he met Minnie Allen,
young woman who would much rather steal
than work.
Shortly after he left the woman. the Bel
gian discovered that he had been robbed OF
his $50. 1t was all he had, and his wrath
was unbounded. He determined to bring
the woman to justice. and camped on her
trail.
Last night he found her on Kearny street,
near Clay, and demanded the money that
she had stolen from him. Sue parleyed
with him a few minutes. and promised to
return the coin. Then she ran away from
him, and he pursued her TO Merchant street.
She turned down the narrow thorou2hfare,
and had just passed tile DOR of tho Central
police station, when her victim seized her
and called LOT al officer. Several policemen
responded, and the lightfngered woman
was arrested and charged with grand lar
ceny and YtgraDcy.
