A OF PRICE.

Many people Judge quality by price and so
: measure all advertisements by this one rule.
It's a mistake. You can't measure the quality
/ of our goods with that of other stores. We
{ seek the best and we get it. Then we use the
low price argument, and have at all times the
4 very goods advertised. Hence the every
/ popularity of Glenn's store.
No doubt you are getting ready to attend
our Fair which will be held next week and
probably you will want a New Dress, a pair of
: shoes, and many other things. Your brother,
father or husband may want a suit of clothes,
a hat, shoes or probably other nice clothing. If
so, it will be to theirs and your interest to see
Z our good before buying
Those handsome all wool suits for boys
worth about $500, our price 5000.
Those handsome suits for men look like
they are worth about 500, our price $3.50.
Those lovely Dress Skirts for aides really
worth more than we ask for them. The one
we offer for $3.50 looks like a $500 skirt.
We have, without doubt. the strongest and
best line of Dress Goods ever shown in the
city. We have them in double fold from 10
8 a yard ur-but we know our 50 cents a yard
Dress Goods are the best for the money ever
shown in Cape Girardeau. If you trade here
you get the best for least money you will also
get handsome premiums.

A New Bobbin Firm.

c.. G. Meliah and j. H. Gordon of
Boston We're in town the first of the
week making negotiations for lease
Of the bobbin shop. While papers
have not been signed the gentlemen
appeared confident when they left
Tuesday that the negotiations would
be satisfactorily concluded and that
they would soon be doing business
here. Mr. Meliah, who has been in
the business for some years, travelling
for different companies and in the EN-
ploy of one at Newport, considers the
shop here one of the best for a small
one he has ever seen. He is also much
pleased with the facilities for carrying
on tae business here and thinks that
with proper management it can be
made a good success. AT the start
they would confne themselves to
turning out handles for all kinds of
brushes and later on might do some
thing with spOols, 1t would require
but little time to get the shop ready
for business for, with the exception OF
making changes in the machinery not
suitable for their class of work, little
would have to be done. Bradford
would gladly see the bobbin shop
wheels humming again and a firm IN
there doing a good and successful busl-
ness.

A Gift to Co. G..

Ex-Gov. Farnham recently sent to
Capt. H. T. johnson of Co. G check
for 5000. The check was sent to Gov:
Farnham by a well known resident OF
this county with the request that he
would forward it to the company that
represented Orange county at Chlcka-
mauga and say nothing as to who was
the donor. The money is to be used
at the discretion of Capt. Johnson for
the best good of the members of his
company, and he has already acknowl-
edged receipt of it to Gov. Farnham,
expressing heartfelt thanks in behalf
of the boys of Co. G to the one who
has so generously remembered them.
1t is easy to imagine from whom this
money came. In all probability it is
the same gentleman who has several
times in the past been generous ben
factor of Co. G. We have not the
least authority for the statement, but
are much mistaken if the boys of co.
G are not indebted to Col, Robert D..
Kimball of Randolph for the many
comforts of home life that that 5000
will purchase.

Ignatius Donnelly was chosen tempo

with fusion with the democrats. He
referred to Grover Cleveland as a
traitor to the democratic party and
Senator Butler as a traitor to the
populist party. He was especially Sc

the subject of such a permanent reor.

sertion hereafter. and on an indie

HORRIBLE RAILWAY ACCIDENT
At Cohoes, n. Y, q Trolley Car Loaded With
Pleasure Party Il Crashed into and
Many Lives Are Lost.

Cohoes, N. Y, Sept 6.-An appalling
disaster occurred here last night
Shortly before eight a trolley car of the
Troy City Railroad company was
struck by the night boat special of
the Delaware & Hudson at a crossing
at the west end of the Hudson river
bridge, which connects this city with
Lansingburg, and its load of human
cen of the IS passengers are dead and
at least ten of the remainder will die.
The cars entering the city from Lam
singburg were crowded with passen-
gers returning from a Labor day pic
mic at Rennsaeler park. a pleasure re-
sort near Troy. Car No. 1872 of the
Troy City railroad was the victim of
the disaster. 1t came over the bridge
about 1885 o'clock laden with merry
party of people fresh from the enjoy.
ment of the day.
The motor car was struck directly
in the center by the engine of the
train, which was going at a high rate
of speed. The accident came without
the slightest warning. The car was
upon the tracks before the train
doomed in sight and no power on earth
could have saved it. The motorman
saw the train approaching as he
reached the track and opened his con-
troller, but in vain. With crash
that was heard for blocks the engine
struck into the lighter vehicle. The
effect was horrible. The motor car
parted in two. both sections being
hurled into the air in splinters. The
mass of humanity, for the car was
crowded to overlooking, was torn and
mangled. Those in the front of the
car met with the worst fate. The
force of the collision was there expert
enced to the greatest degree and every
human being in that section was
killed The scene was horrible.
Bodies had been hurled into the air
and their headless and limbless trunks
were found, in some cases, so feet from
the crossing. The pilot of the engine
was smashed and amid it's wreckage
were the MANNED corpses of two women.
The passengers of the train suffered
no injury except violent shock.

CARE OF SICK SOLDIERS.
Secretary Alger Orders That All Be Placed

Washington, Sept. 8. -Senator Allen,
of Nebraska, was at the war depart
ment yesterday looking after the in
terests of sick soldiers of the Second
Nebraska. He had received a telegram
were arriving there without provision
having been made for their care. Sec
rotary Alger at once directed that the
adjutant general of Nebraska take
charge of the sick soldiers and place
them in hospitals, the expense to be
borne by the United States. Subse-
quently general order was issued to
the adjutant generals of different
states directing them to take charge
of sick soldiers on the same basis. The
following instructions were sent by
telegraph to commanding officers of
all camps, departments and general
hospitals:
1t having been reported to the war depart
ment that many convaescent soldiers who
received furloughs and started for their homes
have been i'll on the way, and to avoid further
occurrences of this kind it is suggested in the
strongest terms that all soldiers travelling
homeward on furloughs will exercise their best
judgment in caring for themselves. especially
those who have been i'll in hospitals with
fevers Their appetites are very keen, and
unless they deny themselves everything
except the necessary food Of the simplest char
acter. they are in great danger Of a relapse
This instruction is sent hoping that it may
reach the eye of those men en- route and also
for the instruction OF surgeons at hospitals 1t
is ordered that no man shall receive furlough
whom the surgeon in charge believes to be I'M
able to travel alone, and that no furloughed
soldier shall leave a hospital without receiv-
ing full instructions to his diet, while en-
route to his home from his surgeon
