A Short Talk on JeweIry.

While giving attention to a number OF
lines in the big department store OF the
W. F. White Hardware company, that OF
the jewelry department must not be
overlooked This department was es-
tablished more as an experiment. but 1t
has grown 30 big that it has come to be
oue OF the first lines OF goods on sale.
A special manager is in charge OF this
depa, tmept, Mr.. c. A. AuliDg, one OF the
most expert watch repairers in the city
A test OF this fact Is that he is constant
" kept busy repairing watches OF the
b st aud most delicate manufacture In
fact ne has ,.ad- specially OF repairi
watches that others consider to hard to
undertake, and whenever railroad man
has a watch which needs the most deli
cate AT ttention il is taken to Mr.. Aulin.
The gentleman learned his trade in
Europe, where apprenticeeh hips are made
to last ever 30 many !ears, SO that when
one ia completed he or she is q master OF
his or her trade.
But, we have been led of our subject.

we wanted to talk about. Here will be
found a fine assortment OF watches OF all
grades and descriptions. The new fat
case watches sec 10 to be the vogue now,
they being not bulky and are lighter in
the pocket. The best movements on'y
are kept, and this department is guaran-
teed to satisfy almost any man who
wants a first class watch.
Then there is the display OF fine cut
glass. There is no snide ware in this
collection The connoiseur can soon
make up his mind that this is genuine
goods when he sees the label. There is
Just as much fraud in cut glass as there
Is in diamonds.
With all this splendid display comes
rings OF so many kinds with SO many
different kinds " setting that it would
be useless to attempt to describe them.
A fine assortment OF clocks is also al
ways kept on hand.
The best way, though, is to 20 to the
store and examine this line for your

Like one risen from the dead, James
Chapman made his appearance in Ak

man left Akron. His home life had
not been particularly happy. and he re-

among the Indians. His wife consent
ed and agreed 10 care for the children.
Time passed and the husband did not
return. lie had written regularly for
some time. but finally his letters wholly
ceased and his wife concluded he was
dead. Two years ago she was married
to Charles K Ives.
In the meantime Chapman had
worked among the Indians, prospect
ing for god when be had opportunity.
Three years ago he joined the rush to
the rich new fields Of the frozen north
and cleared up several thousand dol
lars, He planned to come to Akron and
resume his domestic relations and with
his wealth assist in forgetting the past.
On his arrival Chapman learned of
his wife's second marriage from her
own lips. Almost without a word he
left the house, and after visit in the
country with friends will return to

Men Were Killed and One

One night, says the author Of a

to a climax Marshal MeInness was
at Sitka; his substitute, Rowan, was
sitting in an all-night lunch room.
when man with blood running down
his face staggered in the place He
shouted for some one to give him a
gun" and Rowan, who was a square
man, explaining that he was acting
marshal, asked him what his trouble
was The wounded man excitedly
told his story. He had been robbed
OF his money, and had been beaten
on the head when he had protested
to the bartender of the Theater
Royal, where the robbery had oc-
Cured. Finally he had left, prom
ising. however. to get a gun and
square accounts. Come with me, and
| will investigate this matter" said
Rowan, and he helped the man along,
for he was quite feeble from the loss
Of blood. When they got to the the
ater the wounded man opened the
door. at the same time making a
semblance Of drawing a pistol from
his "gun-pocket." Fay. the bartender,
had been expecting him. Quick as a
flash he pulled his gun and fired,
dropping the poor fellow dead in his
tracks. Rowan, his revolver in his
fist pushed his way into the room,

II has been noticed that at all the
entertainments given by James Whit

never an exception to the rule His
manager says the custom is followed
out Of Difference to Riley, although
1t is not known that he ever re.
quested such a favor. There is a
story back Of that 1t appears that
Riley's ambition early in life was to
be a yiolinist. lie is quoted as say.
ing that an accident spoiled mighty
fine fiddler to make second-rate
poet, but then people may not agree
with him on that score When he
was a young man he exercised a fiddle
a good deal. 1t is said that when he
began parcticing out on the front
porch the neighbors went in and
closed the doors and windows. no
matter how hot II might be. but that
may he a slander At any rate, Riley
wanted TO be a violinist, and was
getting greatly wrapped up in his
studies when he met with an accident
that caused the loss OF his left
thumb. This made IT. impossibl, for
him 10 pursue his violin practice. and
the songs that were struggling for
uttcrance through the medium Of the
violin found escape through verse.
