Got the Worst of 1t.

Edward F. Gafford, a young man who is
by no means stranger in police circles,
appeared in Judge Millers court today, and
his condition showed that he had tackled
the wrong man. 1t usually happens that
when he appears he Is in good condition,
but this morning 1t was found necessary to
have him sent to the Emergency Hospital
for treatment. His eyes were badly dis
colored and swollen, and the doctors found
it necessary to cover one Of them with
bandage. 1t appeared in evidence that he
was released from the workhouse yester-
day, and when he reached 18th and H
streets northeast he was under the in
f1uence of liquor. Entering Clements feed
store, he accused parties in there of having
caused his arrest several weeks before and
announced that he was going to fix them
for it. Following the use of bad and
threatening language, he picked up shovel
and would probably have Drained one of the
men had not John Rocker the clerk taken
part in the fight. He disarmed Gaffcrd,
and the latter threw him against the wall.
Rocker then turned upon him and gave
bin the beating which he will not forget
for some time
Gafford said he was drunk and did not
recollect all the circumstances of yester-
days occurrence. Judge Miller recalled
other rows in which Gafford had figured.
He recalled an unprovoked assault COM
mitted by Gafford on another man, and
concluded the case by giving him sixty DAYS
in Jail. For the profanity fine of S. was
imposed.

There's no success like quick

sale is Il success from the start.
Every reason why it should be.
Goods are irreproachable and
prices-well, they're down to ac-
tual cost to us-not such a cost
that is often claimed in advertise
ments. but the cost books show.
Where we've made especially for
tunate purchases the goods are
sold at less than the actual cost
to produce. Not many people can
or will do that-we can and will.
