The high grade goods that Mr.. Nc
InniS handles is the secret of his big
success in Hattiesburg. In the item
of Sch'os Brothers make of cloth
ing. for instance, clothing for which
he is the sole agent in Hattiesburg,
the handling of these goods make it
possible for him to fit customer out
as neatly as any tailor in the city
could and at a saving to the customer
or from 80 to 80 per cent. and people
are fast learning this and are going
to Mr.. McInnis' for what they want
in the clothing line.
And in the item of hats, while he
handles hundred or more different
shapes and grades, he makes a special
ty of 1.-THE Dunlap hat that has
won for itself world of devotees, be-
cause Of its ever correct shape, the
manufacturers of it setting the pace
in saying what the seasons style shall
be.
And in gents furnishings, Mr.. Nc
Innis' stock has always been found to
contain everything swell : that good
dressers could possibly desire. as well
as every grade appropo to the COM
moner trade, and in every department.,
his prices have always been in keep
ing with the times, (of the live and
let live order), making it possible
even for those of humble incomes to
dress well and not feel the cost of do
ing so.
See the advertisement and il you
have any idea of making a purchase,
first see the mammoth stock carried
by the above house, as there are none
to suTpass it.

The manufacturers of the DIR. MILES
remedies are claiming in their big ads that
their goods are NEVER SOLD AT CUT
PRICEl The fact of this matter is Just
this: Those people adopted a plan, the
PURPOSE OF WHICH was to prevent
their goods from being sold at cut price;
each and every bottle Is numbered and by
this number an attempt to keep tab on
cutters is made; then they have a contract
which they require every druggist who
wild to sign before they will allow any lob
Der to sell him their goods. A great many
druggists CD have signed this contract,
thereby agreeing not to cut the price, and
then they turn right around and cut the
price, thus r~epudiating themselves. There
is a fine for this offense incorporated in the
contract, but the regulators say LETS
SEE YOU COLLECT IT." and there Won
are. Now we wish IL distinctly understood
that we DID NOT SIGN that contract, and
that we do have DIR MILES REMEDIES.

MEXICAN BANK FAILURE.
Causes Wichita Man to Be Out Some
$4,000.

Wichita Kan, Nov. 13.-word has
reached here that Isaac Dean, former
resident of Wichita. who is now in Mex
leo, has lost SIC, 000' through a bank fail
ure in the City Of Mexico.
Isaac Dean was a well known resi-
dent of Wichita and a prominent cattle
man and ranchman,. and was an officer
of the Sedgwick County Fair assoeia-
ton. He had always taken a prominent
part in the fair rneeti ugs and was prob
ably one of the most enthusiastic cat
tlernen in Wichita. About one year ago,
when Mr.. Dean was involved in a num-
Der Of large deals, he lel1 the city rather
suddenly. Nothing was heard from him
for a long time. He finally was located
in Mexico, where he was In the real
estate business, and FROM the reports
that came back here, was doing well.
Frank Payne has been corresponding
with a real estate firm in the City of
Mexico for some time and he recently
received a letter in which the fact of Mr..
Deans loss was made KNOWN.
Money to the amount of $4,000 had
been placed in one of the Mexican
banks to Mr.. Deans credit. A short
time ago the bank failed, and with this
failure Mr.. Dean lost his deposit.

Quarter back of the Bethany team.

Many people expect Millice to be the
star of the game tomorrow. So far
this season he has not shown up ex-
ceptionally, except by his superior
punting in the K. U. game. He was
thought to be little too slow for the
speedy Caldwell and Mehl. But he has
been getting into the game in wonder
full style of late, and Coach G. o. Dietz
of the State Agricultural college, said
after Washburn defeated his team "a
to last Saturday, that Millice was the
star player of the game, and in his
opinion the best man on the Washburn
team. Millice is now playing much
faster and more scientific game than
before. He has developed under the
efforts of Coach Kennedy, and will
probably do some brilliant work to-
morrow. His injured arm is no longer
troubling him.
Stewart will not be in the game.
though he will be out for light practice
again this afternoon. He is still suf-
fer9ng from his injured back, and will
be saved for the game with Missouri
university next week.

MONEY FOR KANSAS.
Methodist Missionary Society Appxo-
PIRATES a Considerable Sum.

Omaha, Neb.. Nov. 13.-Interest at the
morning session of the general mission
airy committee of the Methodist Epis-
copal church conferred in the discussion
of the present conditions of the colored
people, especially in the south. Two
members of the general missionary COM
rnittee who are themselves colored men,
Rev. DR.. Walter H. Nelson of Hunts
vile, Ala, and Rev. DIR. Henry A Mon
roe of Philadelphia, Pa, made eloquent
appeals for the support of the work
among their people. No suggestions
were made by committee members look
ing toward the withdrawal of support
where this was evidently needed, and in
a number of cases additional grants
were made above those of last year.
The general conference district repre-
scented by Rev. Henry J. Coker of En-
poria, Kan, which had been passed be-
cause of the latter's enforced absence,
was taken up this morning, DR.. Coker
having arrived. Especial attention was
called to the rapid influx into Oklahoma
and an appropriation of $19, 500 was
made for the work in that territory.
Other appropriations to conferences in
DR.. Coker's district were made as fol-
lows:
Erie, Kan, $500; east Kansas, $500;
south Kansas, S1,7o0; southwest Kan
sas, $1,000; Missouri, $500; ST. Louis,
1920.
Appropriations to colored work, most
" in the south, were made as follows:
Atlanta conference, LOO; central Ala
bama, 81, 500; central Missouri, $1,000.
