All shoes made since the large adj
vance in shoe materials are either
cheaper in uppers, sOles, insOles, heels,
etc., or prices have been advanced.
In some way, sooner or later, all must
pay this advance. There is no escape.
For instance, 50 shoes made since the
advance are not fully up to $l.15 shoes
made before, and the same is true of
every sort of shoes. Our present stock
was made before the advance and are

1t is thought by the finder that it

We were shown some of the

Last Wednesday evening we met
our friend, Will Price, on West

him, but was sorry to hear of his
three. mile walk the next morning.
We can't understand why he over
slept as he was all right when he
left Missouri, for his brother, Frank,
and were with him at the union
depot. Possibly the coffee and
lunch at Fort Scott had something
to do with it.

Kansas, now a floor. walker at Bull

Sunday evening about half-past

him and called for help. Before
help reached her the thief dropped
the plumber and by two heivy
blows knocked Mrs. Witt down and
escaped by the front door. Mr..
Witt son, Benny. and another gen.
tleman ran to Mrs. Wits assist

ALECHEROUS BRUTE.
An EIeven-year old Girl Assaulted at
Oalena Thurday.
The AssaiIiant Narrowly Escapes
Lynching and Is Taken to the COL
umbus Jail for Safety.

The following from the Joplin
Herald tells of a heinous crime
committed at Galena Thursday:
At Galena Thursday morning
about nine O'Clock, little girl
eleven years of age named Sybil
Redfern was made the victim of an
outrageous assault by an old
scoundrel forty.five or fifty years
years of age who gave his name as
B. S. Collins and claims that he is
an old soldier and n member of the
G. A. II. Collins is a stranger in
Galena. having arrived there Wed
nesday. He loafed around town all
day after his arrival and yesterday
morning he wound up his career on
earth by committing the offense
that will send him to the penitenti-
airy for long term. The victim of
his lust is the little daughter of
Mr.. Redfern who is employed as n
driver for Weber's bakery and from
the best account obtainable it
appears that she went out into the
yard in the rear of the bakery for
some purpose and was seized by
the lecherous old fiend who
grabbed her by the throat, chok-
ing her until she was black in the
face. and dragged her to an open
shed at the side of the yard.
"The poor child resisted with all
her feeble strength and made a
faint cutlery which was heard by
two men who were baching in an
old shanty atthe back of the lot.
They sprang TO the door and
frightened the old brute from his
victim and pursued him to the
street where after short chase he
ran into the arms of Marshal Rains.
The news of the assault spread in
an incredibly short time and before
the marshal could reach the station
he was surrounded by mob of
vigorous and determined men
intent on taking his prisoner aud
lynching him. Gross Funk went
to the assistance of Marshal Rains
aud by alternate coaxing and n
show of force, they succeeded in
getting their prisoner TO police
headquarters where he was locked
up and a little latter OH was taken
to Columbus Jail for safe keeping.
The people of Galena are
thoroughly aroused over this latest
display of brutishness and it would
not be surprising If an attempt was
made to take the wretch from the
county officers and hang him.
There is no question about his
guilt as the men plainly saw the
act committed and the marks of the
old villains brutal fingers were
plainly visible on the girls throat
several hours after the offense was
committed"
