Farmers Break the Buggy Monopoly

It Is claimed that for years buggy
manufacturers have secured exorbitant
prices for their goods, but recently,
through the combined assistance of the
farmers of Iowa, Illinois and other
states, SEARS, RoEBUcK & Co. of Chica-
go, have got the price of open bug
gies down to $3.50; Top Buggies,
22.75; Top Surries, $4375 and upwards,
and they are shipping them in immense
numbers direct to farmers in every state.
They send an immense Buggy Catalogue
free, postpaid, to any one who asks for
it. This certainly is big victory for
the famers, but severe blow to the car
rage manufacturers and dealers. II

SHAWNEETOWN, ILL.,, IS
DESTROYED BY WATER.
Caused BY the Breathing Of . Levee On

Wavo-FeW Of the Citizens Had Any
Opportunity to Escape.

EVANSVILLE. Ind, April AT 6
o'clock last evening the levee at Shaw
neetown, Ill. broke q mile above the
town, and from all the information
that can be secured here it is learned
that great part of the place has
been destroyed and that probably
large number of citizens have been
drowned
shawneetown is seventy five miles
below Evansville, on the Ohio river.
It il situated in valley Of extremely
low land, with hills skirting it in the
rear, and with q twenty-five foot
levee front running from hill to hill.
The town Is very much in the position
of q fortified city, and when the levee
gave way mile above town, under
the pressure of the very high river,
the water shot through twenty foot
opening and struck the place like q
hurricane, sweeping everything be-
fore it
Houses were turned and tossed
about like boxes. The people were
not warned of the break, and for that
reason many were caught Those at
home sought refuge in second stories
and on housetops. Those in the
streets were carried before the ava
lanche of water. and probably . ma
iority were drowned
Citizens came from the place by
skiffs to q telephone several miles
away and asked for aid from Evans
Vile They said that more than 200
people were drowned, and they had
reason to believe it would reach 500
or even 1000
Tho water stands from twenty to
thirty feet all over the town.

WACO, Texas, April 4.-In the midst
Of busy preparations for city election
meetings, while bands were playing
and scattering handbills from their
decorated vans, calling the people to-
gether, w. c. Brann. editor of the
Iconoclast. and Captain NJ. 7. Davis
met and fought q revolver duel to the
death.
The combatants met just at o'clock
last evening. on South Fourth street,
in front of the Cotton Belt ticket Of
fee, and after exchanging a few
words, both began emptying their
revolvers into each others body.
When the battle was over. Brann
was found to be perforated in the left
lung. and left leg and the right foot.
and Davis was shot through the right
lung and through both his arms The
surgeons say both men are likely to
die.

Ter and his partner. Prince, are tour

just reached Waco.
The difficulty between the two men
grew out of the Brann- Baylor feud OF
last year. Captain Davis daughters
are pupils of Baylor university. and
the references made in tho Iconaclast
to Baylor. which were generally con-
strued to mean reflections on the
moral character of the pupils and
faculty, brought forth from Captain
Davis a denunciation of Brann, de-
livered in language most forcible and
direct
1t was often predicted that when
the apostle, Brann, and Captain Davis
met, there would be bloodshed. Cap
tain Davis being fearless man. and
ready on all occasions to express him
self The publications of Brann
against Baylor university wounded
him deeply, and he took every occa-
sion to mako his feelings known.
