Indications point to large business in this
store this season.
Sales for 1898 are now far ahead of all pre-
vious years. Larger in dollars and much larger
in yards.
We know that the buying capacity of indvid=
ual customers, is not as great as in some past
years, hence the number of customers must be
larger==nuch larger==to show the increased
business are having.
This increase, we attribute to the fact, that
stocks carried have improved in quality and
variety fast, or faster than trade has
grown.
We believe customers appreciate our eff
forts to provide for their selection, stock of
dry goods not equaled in Audubon county,==not
equalled, in fact, in any town much larger than
Audubon and not excelled in many respects
even i'll cities the size of Des Moines or Omaha
As to price, we can and do sell goods cheaper I
than these larger places, especially Omaha. A
fact which comparison will easily prove.

HOW IRVING LOWERED HARDING
DAVIS PRIDE.
The Brilliant Writer Fell Up Against
a Smart Man-It Reminds One of
SOLDIERS of Fortune"

Richard Harding Davis was return
ing from the Greco-Turkish war and
had reached London. There he was
entertained by the Englishmen with
their characteristic hospitality. At all
the functions where he appeared the
front of his coat was scarcely visible
on account of the numberless medals
with which it was covered. Nat
Goodwin says that every time he ac-
commodated some Turk with a cigar.
cite he was given a medal. He evil
IDENTITY distributed a large number Of
cigarettes.
One evening Davis was entertained
at London club dinner at which Sir
Henry Irving was present. He wore
all his medals, even pulling out Of
his trunk a few old ones so as to make
greater showing.
Sir Henry saw the young American
and became particularly interested in
the display of metal and ribbon upon
the front of his coat and vest He
kept cycling the collection, and final
~ begged to be introduced to the
wearer. The two were brought to-
gether.
"Sir Henry" said the man who was
performing the ceremony. "this is Mr..
Richard Harding Davis. the brilliant
young American writer
"Chawmed." said Sir Henry. This
remark was spoken rather absent-min-
dedly. for the great actors attention
was riveted by the medals.
Davis noticed this with evident
pride.
Sir Henry looked them all over with
great interest. Finally he fingered
one. and took Davis somewhat aback
by inquiring causally with his pecul-
lar drawl:

The cleanest, brightest safest and really
a the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the mean
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gem
tlenan OF Honolulu came rushing down to
the Office Of the Electric Company and said:
"C3ive me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once no more lamps for me-
GasS night a lamp tipped over and it came
40 near setting fire to the house and burning
a3y children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite a number in
3he past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
ahat you want the best and safest light; send
Cor the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell

A subterranean River.

On account Of the scarcity of water

STANDARD, and several hundred feet
from the creek bed. After going down
about IL feet through gravel and sand
they came to streak of slate-colored
clay. To ascertain, it possible, what
the thickness Of the clay might be, a
3-inch pipe wds driven into it a depth
of two and one shaR feet, when it
broke through into channel or body
OF water and quicksand, When the
pipe was removed the water came
boiling up through the hole and with
1t numberles small fishes, varying in
size trom two to six inches in length.
The fish are very much alive and ap-
parently In fine condition.
About two miles above Armington,
Just below where the Outer flows into
oelt creek, the water sinks away into
the ground. 1T makes its appear
ance again In the bed of the creek
about five miles below town. 1t is
believed that in sinking this well
the underground current of the creek
has been found. How the fish came
there and how they manage to live
thus shut away from light and air is
a matter Of conjecture. By those who
frofess some knowledge of such
things it is claimed the spawn of the
fish are carried through the gravel by
the water. into the underground

The Cattle Quarantine.

JEFF Bradley, manager of the Crock

Promotery, Utah. arrived ffom Mer.
ced, California, this lnerning and
epsnt the day sn iowa. Mr.. Bradley
told an lNO PENDENT reporter that
the condition of cattle in Southern
California was very bad and that no
less than 100000 head would die from
starvation unless some arrangement
could be made By the Secretary of
Agriculture whereby they could be
shipped to Nevada and other States.
he also said that there was but
very little Texas fever among
the California cattle and that
the quarantine established against
the State wouiu work a tremendous
loss to the cattlemeo. The cattle
mensof California do not ask to have
Nevada included in the Infected dis
trict, but merely ask that some ar
rangemeot be made for the inspec-
ton of their cattle by the
federal authorities. AS it is now no
cattle south OF Sacramento can be
