SOME REASONS

First. He keeps strictly up

ing the wants Of his customers,
trying to please them both in style

Second. While his styles are
the very latest, such as a good
dresser would want, his prices are
very moderate, and you don't have
to have all kinds OF money to buy
shoes ut Miller's.
Third. He controls and sells
the best lines Of Mems ard Ladies
Shoes in the u. s., namely-for
Men, the "Walkover" and Doug
lass" union-made shoes; and for
Ladies the "Delsarte" for $3.50,
the "Herrick" for So. so and $500
and Cincinnati goods tor S2 ,$2.25,
81. 50 and $500.
Fourth He gives special at
tention to the selection of his
cheaper grades OF shoes. Just call
in and look over his o8c line, now
stronger than ever. Mems Buff

There lie a rumor current In Cape Town

A unique feature OF Kitchener fight

likely to renew the color agitation.

an enigmatical despatch dated January
l6, saying:
IAN our soldiers, whether from Orange
River COLONY or the Transvaal, look the

the end IL steadily coming nearer.
"The few recent successes of the Beers
are annoying. Twenty thousand rein
forcements have arrived and they are veIy
welcome in Cape Colony, where the Dutch
decline to rise. The raiders are 60 miles

This presumably means that Lord

TO INVESTIGATE CRIME.
Bill To BE introduced To Make ApPro-
priatIons For Purpose.
ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.l

Augusta, January 16.-The brutal
murder of Clifford Mosher at Gorham
Last Saturday night will probably be fol-
lowed by the Introduction Of bill which
after passing both houses of the legislat-
ure In its earliest stages two years ago,
was killed when on Its final passage. 1t
was bill designed to meet just such
cases as that at Gorham by placing in the
hands of the Attorney General fund to
be used in the detection OF the oriminals.
While tie county ana local authorities
are doing all that they can to run down
the murderers of young Mosher, 1t is
pointed out that they would have already
had valuable assistance had the bill of
two years ago been passed. The measure
which was drafted by Railroad Commits
sioner Chadbourne is as follows:
"Section The sum of twenty-five
hundred dollars shall be appropriated for
each year and SO muoh thereof as may be
necessary expended under the direction
of the attorney general, for the detection,
arrest, apprehension and punishment OF
persons who commit crime In this state.
''Section. 2.-The attorney general may
by himself or through the several county
attorneys or other officers of the state,
employ such detective or detectives or
other persons. or use any other means that
he may deem advisable, to the end that
persons committing crime may be ar
rested and punished -

County Commissioners After the shsr-
Ins Also.
ESPECIAL To THE FRESH


Augusta, January l6.-In addition to
the various measures presented to the
Maine legislature to place sheritfs on a
salary, there Is another coming In day
or two. A committee appointed at a con-
vention of county commissioners held in
Pennington some time ago has been in
session here today putting the finishing
touches on the bill to pay the sheriffs OF
the larger counties salaries in place Of
fees and the profits arriving from the
board of prisoners. The members OF the
committee present represented the ooun-
ties OF Androscoggin, Cumberland, Saga
dahoc. kennebec, Somerset, Aroostook
and Washington. Commissioners Chandler
OF AndroscoRgin Is chairman and the
bill was drafted under this direction.
Among the counties included in Its pro-
visions are Androscoggin, Cumberland,
Sagadahoc, Penobsoot and kennebec.
The salaries of the sheriffs are fixed by
the bill YET, should the measure become
a law, the figures would very likely hs
changed in accordance with the views Of
the county delegations.
