dainty, exclusive styles-never so
many novelties.
You are right, our shoes ARE
different from others. We show
only those styles as you see in the

Up to today we've been receiving
new oxfords and high shoes daily.
They are mostly in now, making the

In Oxfords and high boots there

The new green is perhaps the most
pronounced, but there are many new
shades in tan, wine, oxblood, brown,
Russia calf, willow calf, vici kid, deer

In Kentucky even lynching is done In

Is left nothing to desire. For instance,
the vigilance party ut Owensboro did

great consideration was shown for the
religious needs Of the prisoner. The re-
port says that che was given ample
time to pray" But when he had fin

death. Even during the operation or

no disturbance occurred. The dispatch
states that 'the lynching was the most
quiet and orderly, perhaps, ever con.
Quoted In the State, and few persons
save those having business on the pub

Kentucky consideration for the feel7

and bowling about and awakening
those who did not take part in the
ceremonies the participants conducted
themselves In "a quiet and orderly"

has been making experiments rs to the
effect of light reflected In n birds eye.
A glass, seven or eight inches in diam

The antics of blue jays are remark
able when the light strikes them as
they sit In the shadow Of an evergreen
tree. They jump to another branch
and try to look into the light, but they
have to turn away, as the light dazzles
them. Then they fly around the re-
flector, but after practice one Is able
to keep the light always on them, and
the birds not infrequently come within
reach of a mans hand. A ruffed grouse
gives startled look when the light
strikes 1t. Then 1t jumps, and away 1t
goes. Hawks, too, are usually star
tied or annoyed so that they fly off.
Woodpeckers don't seem to mind 1t at

for a while, then go around stump
and sit up again, as II waiting for the
light to play tag with them.

A coffee merchant in Brooklyn had
the impudence to go into the business
OF sugar refining and thus become a
competitor Of the sugar trust. But he
is about to be well punished. The sugar
trust has bought big coffee factory
and will sell the product ut n price
which this Brooklyn merchant cannot
meet. And as soon rs the Brooklyn
merchant is crushed the price Of coffee
and sugar will be raised and the trust
will make good its loss and will take
million or so in addition as payment for
the trouble this impudent fellow gave
it. There is entirely too much imper-
them criticism and rebellion against
these monopolies The independent
business men and the people generally
need to be taught their place. 1T is
earnestly hoped that the monopolies
will be even more severe in the future.

William NJ. Slower, a mine owner In,

experience, recently. that he would not
wish to repeat for all the wealth in the
mountains Of the State. While out
hunting near the Stanislaus River he
shot at deer that was standing on the,
crest of Il hill. The bullet went straight,
and the deer plunged forward and fell.
Mr.. Slower laid his rifle down and has
tened to his fallen game for the pur-
pose OF cutting it's throat. Just as he
reached the deer and leaned over to-
apply the knife, the animal leaped to-
his feet and glared ut Mr.. Slower.
Instantly the man seized the beast
by the horns. This action terrified the
buck. He made n plunge, and down.
the steep sides Of Devils canyon he
went, carrying the man with him on.
his antlers. The deer was madly
frightened, and Mr.. Slower was more
scared than the deer. He could not
turn loose, and away went man and,
animal, over rocks, bushes and briers.
When near the bottom Of the canyon
the deer fell against q tree, and before
he could get up, Mr.. Slower grabbed n
large piece Of quartz rock and killed.
the animal by beating 1t on the head.
