which We do business has become too
small to conveniently accommodate our
large and growing trade. Hence we have
secured larger and more desirable hOuae
on Granite Row. Now, we have not for
gotten what a job it was four years ago
to lug about nine thousand dollars of
stuff up here from our little old place,
though the back doors were almost touch
ing. And how much more of Job will
it be now for us to move over twenty-five
thousand of Goods clear across the Pub
lie Square. We don't want to do it, and
we amt agoin' to do it, No, we are Just
going to make a grab-pile of it, and let
our friends and enemies come in and
carry it off for us. To give you an idea
1. our intentions in the matter-listen
For every ten cents traded with us we
will give you a help-mOve ticket. If you
trade soc. worth you get five help move
tickets, and 80 on. These tickets entitle
the holders To free grabs at the pile, or lc
In trade for each ticket held. Nor IS that

in and buys 25c. worth of Goods. or is
with An older person who buys .5c.

CONFEDERATE BILL SOLD HIM.
Murphy Had 1t In His Pocket When
Searched.


William Bassing's saloon, at No. $50
Grove street. was entered by burglars on
the night of March 81 and the cash
register was robbed. Entrance was eff
fected through a trap door leading from
the cellar. The police were notified by
Mr.. Bassing as soon as he discovered the
burglary at five o'clock in the morning.
Policeman William Maxwell looked over
the premises and then went to look for
the burglars. He had seen jeremiah
Murphy and John Clifford in that neigh
borhood about two o'clock that morning.
and as Murphy had a criminal record the
officer concsluded that he and Clifford
committed the burglary. He traced them
to a saloon in the neighborhood and found
them standing in front Of the bar.
The they saw the officer they
made a break to escape. Clifford got
away, but Maxwell caught Murphy and
locked him in a sid room. Murphy re-
sisted and the officer was obliged to club
him into submission. When Murphy was
searched at the Second precinct station a
Confederate s. bill was found in his pos
session.
Murphy was tried in the General Ses-
sions Court this morning for burglary. He
told a plausible story, but was unable to
account for his possession of the Con-
federate bill which Bassing recognized as
having been in his money drawer for
about three months. Murphy thought it
possible that somebody might have put
the bill in his pocket.
The case was given to the JURY just be-
fore recess

SLASHED WITH A RAZOR.
Holland Injured BY Man He
Had Befriended.

Samuel Holland, a Hoboken contractor,
residing at No. GOA Adams street, was
slashed with a razor by Joseph Prasso
early yesterday morning. The physic-
ians at St. Mary's Hospital, where the
injured man was taken, entertain little
hope of his recovery.
The slashing was the outcome of a dis
pute between the two men in a lonely Sec
ton of the meadow district. Prasso u
year ago applied to Holland for work and
was hired to watch at night property
which the contractor was improving.
Holland built Prasso a shanty to live in,
and otherwise befriended the man.
Saturday night the contractor was rest
less and could not sleep. He declares he
arose from bed, took a stroll to the mea-
dow lands and was walking over the
ground slowly when Prasso came running
out of his shanty and approached him.
Prasso, he says, asked him that right
he had to come around 'bossing' at
such an unusual time. and that when ne
retorted, Prasso, without giving warn
ing, drew a razor and began slashinS
Hollands cries for help were heard by
Patrolman Dennis Leahey and Rounds
man Patrick Hammond, who hurried to
the scene and brought the men to Police
Headquarters. Holland was found upon
examination to have numerous cuts about
the neck, face and scalp. The blood from
the cuts on his ead had entered his eyes
and nearly blinded him. He was unable
to see his way to the ambulance, and had
to be assisted to it by the policeman.
When the hospital a been reached he
was exhausted from the loss of the blood
and was taken to bed on a stretcher.
Prasso was locked up and this morning
arraigned before Recorder Stanton, who
remanded him to await the result of his
employers injuries.
