Today's news shows the results that follow the frs. :;ay of big sale in the Big Store. As consequence of the crowds you saw about the bargain tables and counters all day Saturday, right up to few minutes before the store >loscd-many of the chances are gone-never he repeated, as far as can be seen now.
 The sale of faces and embroideries shows more than the price power and prestige of this store-morc than the aggregate buying of the thousands of people in one store on one day.
 The lesson that will be drawn by discerning people is in the fruits of the masterlul scale on which we do business-and the unfailing resources of the Big Store.
 The sale will continue ali week. But early shopping here has become moral with the public.

farmer who lives in the 9Th ward
has mysteriously disappeared. He
came to town Thursday a week ago
and left his horse and buggy at
Ewell's stable. A number Of people
saw him that evening and that night.
He attended the entertainment at the
courthouse but left before the per-

been heard of him. The house
where he lived was found wide open.

married.

reau, who runs a gasoline boat while
coming down the bayou in a skif
noticed his oar strike an object and
looking, saw a mans head sticking
out of the water, just opposite Vale

tilted the Coroner, DR.. c. j. Ed

was drawn ashore and found to be
that of John 2. Robertson. One side
of his face had been badly mangled
by the fishes. In his pockets were
found a knife some loose change,
letters, pocket book with some mon
ey and a gold watch. No marks Of
violence were visible. A Jury of in
quest was impaneled, composed of

and w. ID. Lyons. BY request of
the jury q postmortem was held by
DR.. Edwards and DR.. NJ. A. Young,
