Little Giant Shoes.

The false and the low
prices and vague decept-
ions of merchants are the
chief characteristics of the
advertisements printed in
Point Pleasant newspapers
nowadays.
The honest merchant
who really has the except
ionaI low values to offer is
at a loss to know how to
advertise the facts, so that
the oft-bitten public will
believe him.
Remember we can and
do sell better goods at all
times for less money than
any store in town, but new
er have we sold goods so
cheaply as now.
Not only do we want to
sell what we've got, but
what you like and want
So that after you have
bought and paid for any
article you are under no
obligation to keep it, unless
it pleases you and meets
your requirements exactly;
otherwise bring it back
and get your money.

Dennison, Tex, Nov. 14.-A dramatic scene took place yesterday in the eoun- cil chamber at Tuscahoma. There were present the Chickasaw and Choctaw del- egations to meet Senator Dave and the other commissioners. The question was submitted to the delegations and a speedy answer demanded, whether they would abandon their tribal rela- tions and allot their land.

CHECK WAS WORTHLEsS.
Fred F. Smith Arrested Yesterday on a
 Serious Charge.


 Serious Charge.
 Fred F. Smith was arrested yester- day by Sergeant Dennehy and locked up, charged with obtaining money by false pretences. It is alleged in the complaint that on November g Smith got James M. Lucey of Grand avenue to cash check for $25 for him. The check was drawn on the First National bank, signed by H. W. Smith, and made payable to Fred F. Smith. Lucey cashed the check, which was in due course of time returned from the bank as worthless. The police were notified and Sergeant Dennehy detailed on the case, which resulted in Smiths arrest late yesterday afternoon.

President Thomas P. Fowler,
of the New York, Ontario and
Western Railroad, had prepared
yesterday a table Of figures
dealing with the anthracite out
put. They showed in a graphic
way the seriousness of the sit
uation, which has led to the
calling in Of j Pierpont Nor
Pan to effect some Improvement
il ratters. Mr.. Fowler spoke
freely on the situation and as
he id so referred frequently to
his figures.
"All this talk Of restricting
the output 4 he said, '.is a
farce. II is all on paper. Our
line, together With two or three
Others, has lived up to the
agreement to limit the output.
Some others have not, and par
ticularly those who are in the
hands of receivers and have no
dividends to pay. These lines
which | refer to are mining all
the anthracite that they can
give out and are selling it for
practically nothing. The situa-

present more badly off than
ever before. II is high time
that something was done. l
hope that Mr.. Morgan will con-
sent to take a had, for the sit
uation has become most serious.
Prices are now down to ruinous
figures.
"For Instance, for the first
six months Of 1895, ending June
20, the average price Of all sizes
Of anthracite coal was s2.77 per
ton. For the corresponding
period in 1894 it was S3.l4, and
for 1898 il was 1894. Prices
could hardly go much lower.
In the same way freight earn.
ings have been affected. For
the first six months of 1895 the
average freight earnings per
ton were Sill. In 1894, during
the same period, they were 81. .26,
and in 1893, sl34. Had coal
