Undertaking

And while other merchants will tell you that
Vermilyea is losing thousands of dollars in order
to make this sale a success, that we cannot help;
we are not trying to run their business. Neither
do we expect them to run ours. We are going
out after the cold Cash and we are coming out
and asking you to part with it at a season of the
year when all men expect to make their 50 and
100 per cent profit, but with us profit is a thing
of the past; wholesale prices and less reign

The People GET TIE Benefit

All former attempts at merchandising by US
or any other concern within a hundred miles of
this city will be ecipsed beyond all question.
The very heavens will shake. The city will be
in a stir as never before. A hustle and a hustle
throughout the entire big institution owned and
controlled by us that will wake mortal man from
his slumbers and make competitor howl, until you
can hear them for blocks around.
1t will be a wonderful gathering of the
people. We want cash and we are going to give
the people the benefit. We will raise the roof if
it is necessary. 1t will be a hot time in the old
town now. We are going to pour shot and shell
into the enemy's camp until they will think they
are once more storming San Juan Hill. There
will be cannonading all along the line, for with
us it is cut loose and unload now, not later. Our
loss will be the peoples gain, and we expect
them for 50 miles around to turn out to this
harvest for,all of the people, and not the favored
few. There never was such an undertaking in
this city, and we do not believe there ever will
be again. Absolutely $I.oo here will be very
nearly the work of $500 elsewher on many
lines. And next Saturday morning, December
IL, when these doors open, you will see such a
gathering of people as never appeared on the
streets of this city before. Rain or shine, the
battle goes on. We have put our word to the
people and you know how we'll we have kept it.

THE FATALITY OF Foor BALL.

The first death that has occurred in
this city through the brutal sport of
foot ball occurred yesterday. There
have been many serious accidents here
tofore, but no fatalities. In yester-
days game however, death claimed
one victim for his own, and a young
man who came here well and hearty
10 indulge in the sport of sports was
carried away dead, his life sacrifice
TO the game that no one enters into
without taking the gravest chances
He was some mothers beloved son,
and some hearts are saddened today
by his untimely death and in such n
manner. IL is said death was due to
"heart failure All death is. Had
this young man been troubled with a
weak heart il was madness for him to
play such strenuous game as foot
ball. The idea is absurd. If his fam
lily have due regard for the reason
and cause of his death they should
demand that an autopsy be held.
No matter what cauesd his death.
nothing can bring back to life young
Robert f. Levin, and his name will
20 down with the long list of victims
who have sacrificed their young lives
ON the altar of the national sport
football 1t may have been he was
kicked in the vital parts of the body;
il may have been he was crushed by
the team bearing down upon him and
il may have been he had weak heart,
but no matter what il was, he is dead.
As if foreboding the evil consequent
ces of the game. we gave expression
yesterday to the fatalities attendant
upon football and suggested the elimi
nation of some of the features of the
game We little dreamed that death
lowered SO near our own doors Death
brings the truth home TO all, and the
truth i'm this instance is that there is
something radically wrong with n
sport that endangers human life. and
such sport is football. 1t needs
modifying in marked degree and
until some of its brutal features are
eliminated there will continue to be
fatalities.
