Music and Bargains.

At o'clock this morning to the mu-
sic OF Hopes band, the Whitehouse
Dry Goods company began most re-
markable special sale, which will be
continued throughout the week. The
remarkable thing about this sale is that
before the week is over it will ex-
tend to every article in the store and
prices will be cut from 25 to so per
cent in each instance.
Mr.. Goodall, manager of the White
house Dry Goods company, stated To-
day:
1--WE have ordered an unusually large
fall stock from the east, which will he
upon us in few days, and it was APP
parent to everyone about the store
that room would be at premium if the
present stock remained intact. There
upon we decided by an unusual cut in
prices to clear our shelves of everything
that could possibly be sold.
1--WE started our sale this morning
with a crowded store and the people
seem to appreciate they are getting
bargains. We will continue it through
out the week. each day Offering addi-
tional bargains, so that interest can
not flag. The public can well afford
to watch our bargain ads this week"

Candle lmperIIs Lives.

NEW YORK, Oct. ia lighted
candle left burning on a table set ire
to the old house at Nos. 1888 and 100
Cherry street early today and put the
lives of more than score of persons
in danger. Through the energetic work
of Hyman Atlemst all were rescued.
Max Berger, peddler, and two
friends, occupied room in the center
of the structure, which dates back to
before the war. They told others there
that they were going to the theater
las night and started before 8 o'clock.
On the table they left a lighted can
die. which burned down about 2 o'clock
this morning, setting fire to pile of
papers on the table. The room was
so situated that the fire could not be
seen from in front or behind the house,
and it gained great Roadway before
the smoke awoke Atlemst, who lives
in the house.
He ran through the building awak-
ening the tenants and helping them
through the smoky Railways to the
street until at last all were safely out
| of the house. The tiremen reached the
scene and put out the blaze before II
had wrought any great damage outside
of the room where il started.
Berger and his friends did not return
until 4 o'clock, when they We're met by
their angry neighbors, who demanded
to know why they had left candle
burning near so many papers and &C
cused them of carelessness.

Gardening in the KlOndike
 Increasing.

Evidently the flower gardens aud the farming operations of the KlOndIks will not be behind hand this year on account of any lack of enterprise on the part of the seed men. For a couple of weeks now large quintl les of seeds have been coming In by express, and If they continue to eoms at the same rate until the sun gets strong enough to assist In agricultural operations, there will probably be a slump In the seed market. It certainly shows, however, that much larger demand for seeds Is ex- peeted during the coming spring.
