j. T. Warehouse.

Low priced articles are not
always cheapest. Closing out
and clearance sales are usually
made up Of goods priced rs per-
cent above selling value and
double what they are worth.
The cut down does not make
them cheap, it's the advertise
ment. Inspection often proves
the quality. Our store has been
for years headquarters for good
values-it makes no difference
whether it is for spool Of
thread or a silk dress pattern.
Once we have had clearance
sale but it was to rid our shelves
Of an accumulation Of old goods.
They were sold for what they
were worth and the people were
satisfied with their bargains.
If we put new goods on our
shelves to-day and tomorrow
tell you that we would sell them
at prices below cost you would
imagine there was something
wrong in us or the goods. Our
prices are right so are the goods.

rAe c oAL STRIKE.
Operators and Mlners Cannot Coms TO IN


Agreement.
Pittsburg. Pa, Aug. 24.-The final
effort to arrange plan for ending the
big coal strike has proved failure
and the strike goes OH. At noon the
conference between a committee of
coal miners and operators, national
and district officials closed and the
conference adjourned without date.
The miners, representatives did not re-
cede from their original proposition to
settle the strike by arbitration and
start the mines at the 60-cent rate.
The operators offered to divide the
difference between - and 10 cent
rates, making the price at which the
mines should start 61h cents per ton.
but this was rejected. Then addition
al propositions were made. One was
to start the mines without fixing any
price for thirty days and then to pay
the rate agreed upon by the board of
arbitration. This was also refused by
the miners and they said they had
been fooled too often to trust the Op-
orators again. They decline to work
for month giving the operators the
output that length of time without
knowing what wages would be paid.
A proposition was then made to Op-
crate the mines for ten days without
fixing the price and allowing a board
of arbitration to fix the price for that
time.
President Ratchford insisted that
nothing but the 60-cent rate could be
possibly accepted.
The operators were firm. but the
miners were equally determined and
every argument OF the operators was
met by the miners leaders. 1t was
therefore decided to end the confer
ence.

ThomasvilIe, Ga. Aug. 23.-People
residing in this city and the
surrounding country are greatly ex-
cited over what appears to be the ex-
istence of a volcano on a plantation
near here. The crater is about twen-
ty-five feet square. Several streams
OF blue smoke issue from 1t. The
ground in the immediate location of
the crater has sunk to the extent of
two feet. Excavations made show
that the smoke proceeds from an ex-
tensive bed OF ashes.
Originally the source OF disturbance
was situated beneath the residence of
a farmer. but the volume OF smoke and
intense heat compelled the destruction
of the. house. II Is impossible that the
smoke should proceed from burning
coal mines, as there are no mineral
deposits In this locality. Frequent
rains have failed to quench the sub
terranean fires. The phenomenon Is
being visited by hundreds Of curious
people.
