Their interest in One Of The New
Additions.

|. G. Lazzelle has been figuring in
a number of real estate deals recently

one and one that will be of great ben
eft to the community.
He has bought the interest of Cox,
Baker and Glasscock in the addition

is full of profit to all concerned. The
price given in the deed is thirty seven
hundred and fifty dollars.

JEFFERIES WINS.
Gets The Decision Over Sharkey at the
End of The Twenty Fifth Round
Surprise for The Sports.

The prize fight on Friday night at
New York between James Jefferies
and Sailor Sharkey was won by the
former. At the end of the twenty
fifth round he was given the decision
by the referee on points. Sharkey
seemed to have the better of the fight
after the eighth round and was very
much stronger than his opponent who
rallied in the closing rounds and on
the whole showed that he was the
most scientific boxer.
The result of the fight was watched
with much interest by the sporting
fraternity here and number of young
men remained up until the fight
was over to learn the result. The
rounds came in over the long distance
telephone and were given out to the
crowd. Sharkey was the hot favorite
and the news that Jefferies had won
was great surprise to the crowd.

THE person who first remarked: "If
you don't see what you want, ask for

He could have declared with equal
wisdom: ''If you don't know where to
find the thing you want. the adver-
tisements will tell you just where to
get it," The business notices which
abound in flrst class newspaper are
public necessity. They are no long
er mere crude and heavy trade an
nouncements. Through them the
advertiser holds chatty converse with
his patrons far and near. He enter
tains and instructs them; he shows
them how well equipped he is to sup
ply their wants. But his clever talks
in the advertising columns go further
they suggest new needs, and create
new desires for useful or ornamental
belongings.

MISCELLANEOUS STOCKS.
THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
The English Cables Show a Decline
in Prices.

Chicago, Aug. S.-Liverpool was weak
enough TO put wheat here upon new
ground. The English market showed a de-
cline from last Friday, equivalent to a
cent bushel And as our decline within.
that period had been about half that, the
weak English opening renewed our weak
ness. There was decrease in the world 5
visible of 1,267 900 bushels although the
statistics for the week indicated an increase
Last year the decrease Was over 5000 600.
Wheat receipts are falling of little ever
where, but the disparity compared with
last year is not much changed. Early in
the day the clearances were announced as
high as coo 600 bushels, but when cor
rected later they made only $40, 900 bushels.
Corn about held its own, the range be-
ing. only Ia cent and last prices very
little different from Mondays. Cables
were easier There was no change in the
situation, capital cash demand and splen-
did crop prospects. All grades Of corn are
at a premium over September. The ship
ping business here is on a scale TO keep
decreasing stocks. The bear interest is
ignoring the present cash demand and Is
relying entirely upon the prospect Of the
largest crop ever raised.
The oats situation is about like the corn,
except that the oats crop is finished. Prices
today held their own There is a big de-
mand for May around 21 cents. The ship
ping demand is ahead OF the supply as
evidenced by the premiums for cash.

At late hour tonight Mattas was uncon-
scious. but still laughing, and those who
attended were nonplussed.
