Ladies' Suits
Lot No. There will be
213 here on Monday morn
ing--not more than a dozen
next Saturday evening.
Same grade as we've been
selling at SIS. 90, $1,000 and
$I6.75.
Manufacturers price was
$1,000 to $500. All are
ta1lor-made, not dress-maker
made, like our shirt waists.
The materials are serges,
Scotch, and English tweeds,
covert cloths, and English
beiges.
The skirts are very full,
wide-haring, with that dis
tinctive hang" of the tailor
made costume-up-to-the-
hour in every point.
The jackets or waists are
fly fronts, blazers, and two
button cut-aways-h hardly airy
two exactly alike in detail OF
general effect. Now for
the price.
Any of them $e.75.

The Price Picnic

Make a note OF every item
named-it stands for more
than columns could describe
in detail.
Some Of our EARLIER pur-
chases, which you've seen
here last week, have been
duplicated in the new lot,
and will give a positive idea
of the bargains tee secured,
and are Offering to yoN
through the sorrows of a
manufacturer.
Ladies who paid twice as
much here a few days ago
for almost the same identical
garment, mustn't blame us.
They were cheap enough
at the price We sold them,
and we couldn't b: supposed
to know more about the man
ufacturer's condition, than he
did about the coming weather.
But we were a0Aztzmg-hob-

A CARD FROM GOV. SHEP.
PARD, PATRIOTIC AND
WISE.
Let it be so.-Vote for the Best
Men, Unawed by Power and
Unbribed by Gain. y

Mr.. EDITOR: On Friday, the
July oath, 1 returned home from
Glenn Springs where l had been
for more than two weeks for rest
anil recreation.
During my stay at the Springs I
was informed for the first time
in letter from my wife-that Mr..
l.. D. White had been announced
as candidate for the House of
Representatives.
The first gentleman who met me
after reached home informed me
that it had been rumored that l
had gone to Liberty Hill for the
purpose of getting Mr.. White to
become candidate with the view
of accomplishing the defeat of the
Hon. w. H. Yeldell. Under the
circumstances my duty to Mr..
White, and TO Mr.. Yelldell, de-
mands that I shall state, that there
is no Justification ao1tatsoever for this
ransor. 1 did go to Liberty Hill
on the first Saturday in July-or
the 4th Saturday in June. | do not
remember which; my exclusive
purpose in going was to carry my
little daughter who desired to
spend her vacation with her grand
mother.
While at the home of my mother
walked down TO the store of Mr..
Fuller, where 1 saw Mr.. Fuller, Mr..
l.. D. White, Mr.. T. J. Lyon, Mr.. H.
S. West, Mr.. Press Strom, Nj. Jno.
ralbert, Mr.. Robert Quarle>s, and
other gentlemen whose names / do
not recall. During my entire stay
/ did not say one word 10 Mr..
White, except in the presence of
one of the above gentlemen, and
during the entire time the matter
OF Mr.. Whites candidacy was not
mentioned by any person.
1t has been said to me also that the
rumor is current that wrote the card,
signed by number Of gentlemen, by
which Mr.. White was announced. In
reference to this I have only to say
that neither wrote, nor had anything
to do with the writing of the card, nor
did l ever see it until 1 read it in the
paper after my return from Glenn
Springs.

ONE YEAR AGO.
What stars have faded from our sky!
What hopes unfolded but to die!
What dreams so fondly pondered DER,
Forever lost the hues they wore!
How like death knell sad and slow,
Tolls through the soul zone year ago!'
Where is the face we loved to greet,
The form that graced the fireside seat,
The gentle smile. the winning way.
That blessed our pathway day by day?
Where fled those accents soft and low.
That thrilled our hearts 'one year agOp Y
Ah! vacant is the fireside chair,
The smile that now no longer there,
From door and hall, from porch and
lawn,
The echo of the voice is gone,
And we who iinger only know
How much was lost zone year ago?"
Beside her grave the flowers bright
Keep silent guard By day and night!
Serene she sleeps, nor heeds the tread
Of footsteps o'er her lovely head!
Her pulseless breast no more may
know
The pangs of life zone year ago."
But why repine? A few more years,
A few more broken sighs and tears,
And we, enlisted with the dead,
Shall follow where her steps have fed,
To that fair world rejoicing go
TO which she passed zone year ago."
