Townsville, N. c., Fef. 26.-Last night
at 1890 o'clock the most destructive hre
that ever visited our town, burned al
most the entire business portion Inc
origin of the fire is not known. Almost
every store and place OF business on
Salem street is in ashes this morning, and
had ii not been for the direction of the
wind the loss would have been far
greater.
The fire originated in the grocery store
of G. w. Tyler, on Salem street, and
burned that entire block. From this it
caught the buildings on the other side of
the street, burning the postoffice, a
grocery store, DR.. c. A. Julians office
and j. NJ Dodson's Photograph gallery.
Not more than 80 per cent of the entire
loss was insured. The fire burned very
rapidly and very little was saved. The
south course of the wind saved quite a
number of buildings.

Dress Hints, Custom Tailoring

You can't expect to get a perfect suit
of clothes unless they ere made to your
own measurements. Ready made suits
may fit by accident, but made to- order
clothes do so by design.
The name of Whiting Bros. on a suit
of clothes means that it's just as per-
feet as human skill can make it.
Don't go in for the "to extreme" in
fashion-choose any Of the styles dis
played by us-they are strictly correct,
but are designed for refined and sensible
dresSers.
Whiting Bros. have made this reputation
by honest tailoring, and it's honesty that
counts
Don't disregard fashion. He who does
so disputes the taste Of the multitude ana
makes himself obnoxious.
IF you want thing done we'll you
must do it yourself" is a saying that
doesn't apply very we'll to the making
of YOUR clothes. Better leave the work
in the hands of a high-class tailor like
Whiting Bros.
Never wear a Prince Albert to an even
ing function. 1t is very bad taste. Even
ing dress and the Tuxedo are the only
permissible garments
Don't wear tan shoes with a Prince
Albert, or a silk hat with your business

New Kind Of shin. Propeller.

A Danish engineer, II. c. yogt Of Co
penhagen, has invented a propeller for
ships that attempts to initiate the nc
ton Of a fish's tail and combines driv-
ing with steering power. Experiments
are said to have shown that the new
apparatus. which Is called the "pen-
dulum propeller" gives a greater driv-
ing thrust than does the screw propel-
Ter, while its steering ability exceeds
that attainable with twin screws and
helm together. The great difficulty is
with the engine, for, with the present
forms Of engines, the weight Of the
driving mechanism Is too great to be
practicable for steamships. The oscil-
latlng blade Of the pendulum propeller
is placed at the stern Of the ship In the
position Of the ordinary rudder. with
its longest axis vertical.

Say There Was an overplus Of Tags
In Last Years Wool.
Billings, April 5.-Eleven Boston
firms. who bought practically all the
wool offered In the Billings market
last year. have Joined in sending a
circular letter to the wool growers OF
this vicinity. in which that they state
that the clip of last season, bought In
Billings, showed up. when u%npacked,
a larger percentage OF tags than was
represented by the sellers.
The letter gives specific directions
as to the sacking Of tags, and advises
the growers not to use sisal twine In
wrapping their f~ieeces, as 1t spells the
sale OF the wool. A very little OF this
kind of Irvine was used here last sea-
son.
Growers here regard the letter quite
unfavorably. asserting that no mis-
representations we're made in their
sales last season. and that the circu-
lar is an advance announcement that
buyers will try and shave prices here
this year on the strength OF trumped
up charges.
