John M. Hassali was well-known manufacturer of Lace Curtains at Boston, Mass. His recent death necessitated the turning of allNhis unsold products into cash for the prompt settlement of hi estate.
 Our buyer, being informed of this condition of affairs, made an offer for the Bob binette Lace Curtains on hand-- --bobb inette curtains being the particular spec ialty of this manufacturer.
 We got 500 pairs of them; the rest going to houses in other cities. They are fine goods al! fresh from the looms and in the da inty and at- tractive patterns that made Hassall's product famous in the trade.
 We have divided the lot into five groups, and offer them at almost ex- actly half regular prices, as shown in adjoining column.

ROUSTABOUTS STRIKE
FOR BETTER FOOD

The big side wheel government
steamer Lily, which recently passed
north on its tour of the upper river,
experienced a strike at La Crosse.
Rivermen state that discomfort has
reigned among the roustabouts of
the Lily for some time and that
when the boat was ready to start
out from La Crosse they made Il de-
mand for higher wages and better
grub. The consequence was that the
steamer sailed without the rousta-
bouts. The men had been getting
$25 per month and claimed their food
was too poor to be tolerated. They
struck on both propositions at once,
got the stony stare and refused to
go back to work. 1t is said the Lily
has easily filed the berths.
The Lily has SIS lights and $40 day
marks to look after between Cairo,
ILL.,, and st. Paul. Capt. w. {. Eagon,
who has had charge of the boat for
the past II years, says the changes
are very few this year. This is be-
cause of the high stage of the water.
the current being moro steady than
in case of low water.

The Gazette says in explanations:
Charlie Reynolds introduced Abe

a singer. He sang several selections.
all of which were well executed and
gave a great deal of pleasure. We
took Mr.. ROsenfield's picture, which
we give below. Mr.. Rosenfield is one

who were jollying him that when he

Some months ago demand was

Il fine of $50.
DR.. J. w. Stewart reported last
evening that someone had been try
ing to cut the lead piping out of

decided to give it up as a bad job.

today that couple of horse blankets

DRUGGISTS ACETATE
CLOSING AT 9 O'CLOCK

The movement noted last year on
the. part of the druggists of the city
for the closing of all drug stores at .
o'clock is again being agitatcd.
y canvass of the situation has re
vcalcd the fact that not over two or
three druggists are unwilling To CO.
operate in the move, but, profiting
by the experience of last summer,
early closing will not be attempted
till there is practically unanimity on
the question.
Druggists say that the early clos
ing of other lines of business leaves
very little trade outside of the soda
water business after o'clock and
even this is not usually worth keep
ing open for.

ALLISON STANDS BY HIM.
Iowa Senator Endorses Roosevelt's
Position on Coal Strike.

Mason City, Ia. Oct. Ex-senator Allison
spoke here tonight inaugurating the Re

large audience. He took occasion to in
dorse the president for what he had done
toward ending the coal strike.
l might give many illustrations of how
Insignificant the part the tariff plays as
respects great combinations of capital
and how puerile is the remedy proposed
for the destruction of all trusts by plae-
ing trust made articles on the free list.
/ think it may be said truthfully that
more of the trusts would be benefited by
the removal of the tariff than would be in
jured, and when injured to endure the in
jury more easily than their competitors
who would be practically destroyed. The
great tobacco corporation is an illustration
of this. The removal of duties on import
result in great loss of revenue to the
fit to the tobacco combination.
The only remedy proposed by the DEM
orats is political and it seeks by indirec-
ton to attack the policy of protection.
which has withstood all direct assaults
upon it for more than forty years. The
policy of protection is a beneficent one
and whatever changes experience has
shown to be needed will be made by the
Republican party These changes can not
be hoped for except through the Repubii-
can party. The rvision proposd by our
opponents IS one that can only lead to the
destruction of our immense industrial ir,-
terests. interviewer as they are with all
other business and occupations and with
the destruction of these. disaster and dis
tress will inevitably follow"
