AM, ASD GO-CartS !

Our go-carts are something new.
They are just the thing for a child
too large for carriage and not
large enough to walk.
Our baby carriages are like the
coming spring. They are just as
"warm" as the first rays of sun
shine. You ought to come and
look at them and then we could say
to you:
DO YOU SEE how well
prepared we are with this
stock, the largest ever yet
brought here.
DO YOU SEE that we
have put the very smallest
prices on these goods yet
quoted here.
DO YOU SEE that our
goods have a better make
and finish than ever.

with gun. The situation is believed
to be practically under control. The

The mob that did the shooting was
composed of $50 men. Where they
came from is not generally known.
Some of the people of Palmetto, not
the better class, were in the mob
Every face was masked and when the
warehouse was reached the special
guard of five men was covered without
a word. In a minute the mob was in
the big warehouse and the fusilade
opened. The frightened negroes
begged for mercy without avail. When
it's work was finished the masked mob

signed the treaty of peace between

The Cortes was prorogued yesterday.
The signed treaty of peace will be
forwarded to the French ambassador
at Washington, M. Jules Cambon, for
exchange for the one signed by Pres
ident Mckinley. No decree on the
subject will be published in the Off
cial gazette
At first it was the intention to sub
NIT the document to the cortes for rat
ification. So much discussion devel-
oped in that body, however, over the
terms of the convention that it was
thought best not to allow the cortes
to consider the question. The cabi-
net, after, deliveration, decided that
the consent of the cortes was not nee
essary and that the queens signature
would give validity to the document.

ity. He said to his private physician
ten minutes before he died:
MY last words shall be What is
the news?
He came here three months ago for
his health and has been confined to
his bed only five days. His grandson,
Robert R. Mccormick, was with him
in his last moments. His remains will
be sent to Chicago at once.
Although Mr.. Medill has been seri-
ously i'll for several days, there was
nothing until Wednesday to lead to a
thought of death. At that time, how
ever, his condition became alarming,
and kilograms were sent for his rel
atives in Chicago. Mr.. Medill was 76
years of age
April g. 1923, on farm situated Oh the St.
Johns river, in New Brunswick, Joseph Mcdill
was born, of Irish parentage. Here he remain

led law at Massilion, and in November, 1916,
was admitted to the bar at New Philadelphia,
Ohio, partnership being Immediately formed
with George w. McIlvane afterward chief JUS
tice of the Ohio supreme court.
In 1919 Medill moved to Coshocton, Ohio, and
began the publishing of the Weekly Repub-
lcan. So successful was this venture that he
sought q larger fed, and in 1852 moved to
Cleveland, where he established a daily paper
which he called the Forest City, and which is
still in existence, although it is now known as
the Cleveland Leader
In 1854 Medill was one Of twelve men who
held meeting in Cleveland and organized a
nucleus of the Republican party and since
that time had been prominent in its councils.
He re owed to Chicago, and In 1855 became one
of the owners of the Tribune.
Mr. Medill discovered Abraham Lincoln and
started him on the road that led to the presi-
dency.
Mr.. Medill was member in 1869 of the con-
stitutional convention Two years later Pres
ident Grant appointed him member of the
civil service commission Later in the same
year and Immediately following the great fire
he was elected by three -fourths Of all the votes
cast for mayor of Chicago, but two months be
fore the expiration of his term OF office he re-
signed and went abroad to restore his shat
tered health.
Returning home in 1874, Mr. Medill bought
the Tribune outright and assumed supreme
control Of its policy and business, which he re-
tained until his death He spent greater por-
tion OF each year at Los Angeles, Cal He left
two daughters, Mrs. Robert W. Patterson. jr.,
whose husband is, after Medill, the master
mind of the Tribune, and Mrs Robert II. Nc
Cormick.
AS the founder of a great newspaper and
master OF its policy he achieved great celebrity
end large fortune. Forty-iye years he was
identified with Chicago.
He was the Nestor of the press in the west
ern Central states for twenty years, and his
addresses before editorial associations were
full of wisdom drawn from personal expe-
riences.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. March 1S.--John
Ferriter murdered Policeman Charles
Ware here two years ago. He was
sent to the Michigan City peniten-
tiary for life. He made successful
and sensational escape from there
yesterday afternoon. He was in the
shoe department and, soliciting the
aid of some of his fellow convicts, in
the shipping department, they boxed
him up in shoe case. The box was
placed upon the delivery wagon and
carted to the depot. AS soon as the
driver was well outside the peniten-
tiary limits, Ferriter broke out of the
box, knocked the driver off the wagon,
stole his overcoat and took to the
woods He is still at large.

FIVE KILLED OVER POLITICS.
Chiof of Police and Two Other onicers
Shot Mt Hot springs

Shot at Hot Springs.
Hon SPRINGS, Ark, March ia
shooting occurred here at $50 o'clock
last evening, which resulted in the
death of five men and the serious
wounding of two others, one of whom
is not expected to live The killed
are:
Thomas Toler, chief of police.
j. f. Hart, city detective.
Thomas f. Goslee, police sergeant
John Williams, son of Sheriff Will
Jams.
Louis Hinkle, driver of brewery
wagon.
Ed. Spears was shot in the neck and
may die.
The shooting was the result of feel
ing growing out of the mayoralty
contest which was under way here.
The sheriff was a warm supporter OF
the regular Democratic nominee, while
Toler, Hart and Goslee were support
ing an opposition candidate.
Feeling ran high, and early in the
afternoon shots were exchanged be-
tween the sheriff and his son John in
front of the city hall, on one side, and
Sergeant Goslee on the other, but no
one was injured
After this both parties determined
to have it out. Toler, Hart and Cos
lee were together walking south on
Central avenue at about $50 o'clock,
when they met Sheriff Williams and
his two sons, John and Cotfey, and Ed
Spears, deputy sheriff, in front OF
Lemp's beer depot The quarrel was
renewed. No one can tell who fired
the first shot, but in moment there
was a general fusilade, in which forty
or fifty shots were exchanged. When
it was over Toler, Hart, Goslee and
Hinkle, a non -combatant, were dead,
and John Williams mortally wounded.
He died about an hour later. Louis
Hinkle attempted to separate the COM
batants at the commencement, and
was shot in the head and died in
stantly.
The mayor, Immediately after the
shooting, appointed Judge L. D. Beld'
ing chief of police, who had posse OF
deputies sworn in at once. There is
little factional feeling outside of those
engaged in the shooting, Order was
easily restored, and the city is now
quiet. The sheriff and his son, Coffey,
are under arrest, and no further trou-
