Now to business. We have 100000
worth of shoes in all our stores, which we
propose to throw on the market and sell at

To close out this vast amount of stock in
short time there is only one way to do it,
and that we will do by marking the stock
down to just about one half the regular
prices.

EXPERIENCES OF PRISON LIFE
Impressions Recorded by One Who Ought
to Know.


Impressions Recorded by One Who Ought
to Know.
The most important cpochs in the life
of convict are the time of his arrival
and the moment of his departure from
prison, writes "Debsy," in the Still
water Prison Mirror. OF the first I can
speal. intelligcntly, of the latter from
fancy only. When the iron door of his
siX-by-four cell is shut and locked upon
him and he is left free to explore his
new home, the first sensation is one of
relief Now it is all over. He has
found the end. He can fall no lower,
and, as say, there is a certain feeling
of relief in that very thought.
Strange as it may seem, his mind is,
to certain extent, at rest The long
strain of the trial, the tedious days and
weeks of uncertainty anc 'waltlng are
ended, and he knows and can look
forward to definite life. He knows,
too, that here he will be carefully
watched and guarded, that mo thieves
break in and steal" "that no moss will
grow under his footsteps" and that he
will be expected to stir about and
make himself useful at whatever indus
- iiS ihuJ bS SlIllOSCV' l. IItIc are
NO drones in this hive; and if he does
not do his ''bit' ut hard labor it will not
be his fault. The first few days in his
new environment are apt to pass quick
ly enough (providin% he be novice).
for everything is SO weird and strange
in his new life, and the sounds and sig
nails are SO foreign to his other life that
he has no time nor breath to spare in
idle regrets and murmurs.
But then comes the reaction; he has
settled down to his mutton, and now
comes the strain. The deadly monot-
ony and sameness of it all, day in and
day out, drag and wear on the mind
and body, and then, if the system be
not in the finest physical condition, the
defect shows itself, and, hastcned by
the rigid diet, the doctor will now en-.
ter his life. Passing this stage success.
fully, the days and weeks glide by, and
the months literally turn to years, and
soon he is beginning to count on his
fingers the months to his discharge.

Absolutely Pure.

A little Ohio girl was taught by
her good mamma to pray regularly
every day, but the requests made were
the same night and morning, week in
and week out. Finally her mamma
suggested Il change for the next day,
and what was her surprise to hear the
dear little innocent pray that God would
make her absolutely pure like the
baking powder in papa's paper"

Condition of Trade.

There is perceptible halt which
may deceive if attributed to wrong
causes. Trade two months late in spring
pushed forward into July large share
OF business belonging to April or May.
Seeing rush of orders out of time,
many imagined it would continue, and
hurried to give other o. ders. The jam
of two months business into one lifted
prices. Then other orders came to
anticipate further rise. But the mid
summer halt was nevitable, and it is
yet somewhat uncertain how much
improvement will appear after it..
The crop of corn promises to be the
largest ever grown, and is almost out of
harms way. The crop of wheat appears
from later accounts, perhaps 20 million
bushels smaller than was expected d
month ago, and had the best hopes
been realized it would have been more
than 100 million bushels short of a full
crop. Cotton has lost little, and more
people seem to believe in 100000 bales
than believed in 100000 month ago.
The years business will be much
effected by the crops, and the most
hopeful estimate falls below full yield
except for corn. Larger stocks than
were Immediately wanted have been
leihSh Wy t1etICl pilCCS NSIc duNdIC-
ing, and these tend to limit future
orders. The general advance in many
products also causes reluctance to
purchase. and the distribution of the
past half year has been in part to make
up for stocks and individual supplies
depleted during two years Of economy.
On the other hand, there has been
enormous increase in the working force
and a considerable increase in wages
paid, which enables people to buy
more freely. Apprehension of none
tary disturbance has been quite pushed
aside. Strikes of some Importance
appear, but do not yet threaten to last
may for time affect business some
what extensively. The hopeful spirit
prevailing in nearly all markets may
find its warrant in spite Of some short
age in crops.

two words. They thought it meant by
good ball playing. Wausau players
understood it to mean bluff, smash and
wrangling ball. Use the Umpire for
tenth man and steal the game, its
absolutely necessary.
1t won't do TO mention all the old
time mean tactics resorted to by Wau-
sau,s catcher and first baseman bull
dosers. Wausau probably wants to
play a few more games this season.
Are these players fit to enter a decent
contest? Go up and learn for yourself.
Some facts. Wausau captain i'm
proves the national rules. How? As
follows: Man at bat is hit below the
knee by pitched ball. Captain Bells
rules that he is not entitled to base
because batter wore padded pants.
Ruling sustained by Umpire.
With base runners occupying first
and second bases, does fair ground
hit force them to next bases? Yes, if
you 90 by Spalding, Rule 90, Sec. II.
Grand Rapids made a double play of,
Wausau in above circumstance, but
Umpire called the batter out only.
Notice the nerve.
The Wausau Pilot said in regards to
above: Captain Bells was asked about
the decision after the game and he
claimed the decision was correct as
given" Outside Of Wausau Spalding is
generally consulted on rules. We
submit that captain capable of 'pad
ded pants" claims, is poor authority to
seek for an honest ruling.
What would you do if a man running
from third to home base deliberately
smashed the catcher side the head
while he was shutting the runner out
with the ball? Lee Of Wausau played
this kind of trick.
What virtue in a game where base
runners must haunt their arms in front
of basemen who are about to throw the
ball? Reference made to Manson of
Wausau, who tried hard to cause errors
this way.
Can two men field ball at one time?
National rules plainly answer in the
negative. Grand Rapids was at bat
with two scores made and man advan-
ced to second base; a grounder is
knocked into second baseman's field
and while he is Is feet back of his base
after the ball, collision of short stop
and base runner takes place Mr..
Bells offers advice and Umpire at once
declares base runner out for interfering
with a fielder. How could the short
stop be legally attempting to field ball
way behind him and in another players
field? 1t was an evident attempt to
block the runner with hopes Of catching
him at third base.
The above occurred in the last half
of the sixth inning and game broke up
Grand Rapids refusing to play unless
given the fair decision. Score stood
to in favor of Grand Rapids
These facts known, we ask: "What
club would remain in a game in the face
of such rank injustice?
We are told the Umpire awarded the
game to Wausau 9 to D. Poor fellow!
He was incapable to award anything
except to Wausau. That's right, it was
absolutely necessary.
Wausau come out of town and learn
what decent treatment is. Guess you
have not ventured from home this
season.
